girls were delighted at the original idea they’d come up with. They huddled in a corner and, giggling, exchanged jackets. They walked a little, then looked at themselves in the mirror and slowly went out into the street.
Nijat stood about ten meters from the exit. Seeing them, he began to approach. He went up to the girl in a green jacket and asked:
“How was shopping? Did you buy anything?” The girls laughed together.
“What are you laughing at?” the guy said, confused. “Did I say something funny?”
Jamila replied:
“You got it wrong, young man. We exchanged jackets while we were there. And you quickly forgot who you fell in love with. From now on, be attentive when choosing a girl, and now bye-bye. You can go.”
Nijat blushed intensely with embarrassment. He didn't know what to do. Then he gathered himself up and said:
“Excuse me^ I am really sorry…”
But no matter how he tried, he just could not say anything good in his own defense. He even forgot how and which way he took to reach home. In his heart, he did not stop cursing at Huseyn, who persuaded him to go after the girls: “Alright, Huseyn, you’ll see what I will do with you.”
His mother brought him tea and then, stroking his head, asked: “Dear, what should I say to your father? What did you decide?”
“Mom, I decided that you can find a daughter of one of the relatives for me to marry.”
Delighted at what she just heard, the mother, began to hug and kiss him, and then ran to pass this message to her husband.
Nijat went to the window and gazed at the dark sky.
He immediately cheered up. His anger towards Huseyn disappeared somehow. I even thought it was actually a stroke of luck. He would never have dared to marry if Hussein had not forced him to go after the girls who fooled him.

In my life I have met many honest and decent people. One of these is the teacher Seville, who has chosen for her the glorious profession of teaching children. I will not even mention how kind she is and how much she loves her job. Actually, the world rests on such honest people. I really think so.
When her favorite pupil, the standout Ilkin, suddenly began to fall behind, she realized that it was impossible to resolve this matter with bad marks alone. It was imperative to find out the reason for what was actually happening in the child's life. She remains multiple times to study with her pupil after classes, although this fact doesn’t add harmony to her family. But the teacher keeps pushing on and resolves to find out the reason for her pupils’ lagging behind. As a result, she comes to the conclusion that serious efforts are needed in order to save the boy, and the teacher begins to act.
A Mission
The teacher Seville had a hard time falling asleep. Every now and then she turned from side to side. She just could not get rid of the thoughts in her head. The dawn was yet to come. She glanced at her watch: it was about 4 a. m. She realized that she would hardly get any sleep, and got out of bed. She was haunted by the fact that the excellent pupil Ilkin suddenly began to lag behind, became disobedient and joined the bad guys. She could not understand what exactly happened to the boy, who was always considered an exemplary pupil, not only in the classroom, but also at school as a whole. His photograph adorned the honors board, his behavior and studies seemed to warrant a bright future.
Peering into the dim lights of the street, she decided that today was the day when she should talk to Ilkin in private and find out what was happening to him, and, if necessary, provide the necessary assistance.
Worried, the teacher left the house without even having breakfast. As soon as she came to school, she went into the classroom and made the necessary notes in the journal. After that she turned to Ilkin:
