It so happened that Olezhka and I were left alone. The husband chose a new life partner, but the son did not know the details. For him, the official version was that dad needed to work in another city, and mom didn't want to quit her job here.
Oleg was already twelve, he, of course, understood a lot. Although he pretended not to notice my nervous breakdowns due to the eternal lack of money, nightly tears from impotence and the desire to be loved again.
I wanted to make the New Year special for him. I could not give something dear, but I could arrange a holiday. The design was almost all done in his favorite style with minions. The son appreciated and proudly posted his selfies on the New Year background on the social network.
I suggested that he invite his friends, and after the chiming clock, go to the city square in a noisy company, accompanied by me. The son did not approve of the idea. Later I realized that at the age of 12 adults are superfluous in the company.
My son also refused to go to visit his grandmothers or my acquaintances. "We will meet together!" - the son has resolutely declared.
On the 31st I did not work, so I could prepare. I read a bunch of newfangled recipes and spent the whole morning working on their implementation. It's good that I decided to buy the cake, and not bake it myself.
At lunchtime, Olezhka's phone call rang out. At first he did not say anything special, and then suddenly asked: “Mom, would you mind if we celebrate the New Year three together? This is a good person. I want you to be convinced of this too. "
I thought that my son decided to call his first love to us. There were no objections from me.
I changed into a beautiful dress, in which I decided to celebrate the New Year according to all the stellar advice. Red always suited me. The Internet was full of headlines that this particular color must be present in the house and in clothes to meet the fire sign. There was almost no red in the decoration of the apartment, because there were minions everywhere. But I took care of myself.
When the lock clicked, I decided not to rush out in order to let the guest of her son get used to it. Only now he invited not a girl, but his class teacher. Handsome, intelligent Andrei Viktorovich, in a conversation with Olezhka, admitted that he had a very interesting and beautiful mother. And they conspired. Olezhka told me: "Mom, this is my surprise for you." The surprise really happened.
And the upcoming New Year is already four of us. Ours and Andrey Marinochka will celebrate their first month on New Year's Eve!
