Sanek. And I haven't missed you at all.

Victor. And then why did Sanek volunteer to organize the meeting?

Yes, because you will type all sorts of stuff without me, and you will sit at random. I am not eager to look at overweight classmates and classmates who have achieved more in life than I have, and even now, I must admit, you are terribly annoying. You're sitting all statuesque, expensively dressed. I endure, I hold on with the last of my strength. But what is a meeting of classmates without a class leader?

Victor. Fair. I'm sorry that you have to put up with me, I'll try not to burden you with myself for a long time. Here is a list of those who will come. Let's go through the groceries, the booze. You see our people, you know who prefers what.

Sanek. I know, yes. We were going to meet not so long ago. Without you, really.

Victor. That's right, I was living in another country back then.

Sanek. Wait, where did you decide to meet? Which cafe? Is it the same place as last time?

Victor. Why do we need a cafe? I bought a house. We'll celebrate the housewarming at once, and the meeting of our graduation.

Sanek. Are you deliberately pissing me off?

Victor. I'm sorry, I didn't think of that.

Sanek. Is the house big?

Victor. One hundred and forty squares.

Sanek. After all, on purpose!

Victor. You just asked, I answered.

Sanek. And why do you need a hundred and forty squares? It's so much to pay for heating, so much for electricity!

Victor looks at Sanka skeptically.

Sanek. Oh, yeah, you're like a Millener.

Victor. Something like that.

Sanek whispers something unpleasant to the side.

Victor. Be patient, I'll be leaving soon. Write down who prefers what, and I'll stop torturing you.

Sanek. Yes, sit down already. Ah, life. One is everything, the other is nothing.

Victor. I'm sorry, but what did you do to make sure you had everything?

Sanek. So! Come on, you know, this… So, the girls mostly drink wine. We need to take red and white. Some people respect beer. I'll write you what it is now. (He writes). Guys don't all drink vodka, but you need to take a couple of bottles. Four is possible. Five is better. There are several juices, to wash down. And… yes, in general, that's all. Ah! For food. (He writes). So I wrote down the address for you here, they make delicious salads there, and in general it's better to take ready-made dishes there. They cook great. And what exactly I eat, take it to your taste. I don't think anyone will ask any questions. Do this, and I'll look for some attributes of our adolescence, I'll throw in music from those years, I'll make a selection. To listen, to dance there in your mansions will be where and on what?

Victor. Everything will be.

Sanek. Well, that's it then.

Victor. Good. Okay, I'll go.

Victor stands up.

Sanek. Hold on. Tell me about your house. Interesting.

Anna enters out of breath.

Anna. Hello everyone!

Victor. Hello.

Sanek. Oh, Anyut, hello. What are you doing so early?

Anna. The water in the kindergarten was turned off. More in the morning. So far, all the kids have been sorted out. I would have come even earlier.

Sanek. M. It is clear. (To Victor). This is Anya, I told you about her, they're filming here with Ksyukha.

Anna. Anya, it's a pleasure.

Victor. Nice to meet you, Anya, I'm Victor. Victor is allowed.

Sanek. Anya works as a kindergarten teacher here nearby. And Victor… Vitek, who do you work for? I still haven't asked.

Victor. Businessman.

Sanek. What are you doing?

Victor. I have a construction holding company.

Anna. Wow!

Victor. No, Anya, don't think that I'm a market shark. It's not that serious. I am not an oligarch. We build small houses. One — two — maximum three floors. A lot of people are now fleeing from apartments, so we are just working for those who want to live in their own house.

Anna. Oh, yeah. I've been dreaming about my home all my life. Four walls, whatever they are, are just four walls. And in her house she is her own mistress. You do what you want. If you want, put up greenhouses, if you want sheds. And in general, it's very easy to get out at any minute, you don't need to go through the entrances, floors. These steps, you're waiting for the elevator. Everyone has their own, of course, but I'm not a fan of apartments, even though I've lived in them all my life. You're doing a good job.

Victor. “thanks. I understand you perfectly and share your views. But your work is very serious and responsible.

Anna. Judging by the salary, no.

Victor. Perhaps I have to agree here.

Sanek. Oh, it's just a small talk we've got here, where to go. What do you "YOU" say to each other? Let's keep it simple. Still their own. Vityukha is my classmate. We have a reunion coming up, we are forming a menu.

Anna. M… great.

Sanek. So you're a shoemaker without boots? You build houses, but you bought them for yourself anyway. What? Are you building badly?

Victor.
