dear friend

= Day 29 =

I slept on the shore at Arkhipo-Osipovka on a wooden beach lounger. At some point, my solitude was broken up by a young company of teenage girls. They sat down nearby and started singing songs. Half the night. I had to listen to them until they left. And about ten minutes after they left, a couple came to the shore and started having sex for 2–3 hours, also not far from me. The girl's figure was fire, judging by the silhouette's outlines. She had it all. Lucky guy.

I woke up at 6:00 and headed to the bus station. I only managed to leave at 10:45. The hamstring tendon in my leg hurts more and more... I decided not to go to "Kamenny Kurgan," but to go straight to Khosta. I should probably give my leg more rest and ease up on the pace. I'll also look for an apartment for the future while I'm there. I arranged with an agency today to view apartments. Karina and Leila – two real estate agents with a driver – took me to two apartments in the central district of Sochi. It was already dark, we got lost a few times, didn't know how to get there. I liked Karina, a pretty young girl I sat with in the back seat, chatting pleasantly. During one of the viewings, Karina managed to step in cement in the dark. It happened on the street; there was a hole in the floor, and inside it was wet cement. A house was being built nearby, so nothing surprising about that. Before the cement hardened and ruined her skin, Leila and I ran to the neighboring house for water. Some young guys from the first floor poured us a bucket of water, and we saved Karina from that awful nighttime mishap. )) Tomorrow we'll go see other apartments. I came to stay the night at Lera's – a dear friend I used to work with at Focus Point. I was very glad to see her again. She's been living here with her daughter recently, just like the folks from Focus Point. And she still works as a numerologist…
