That's not the point. Construction is time, after all. You need to live somewhere. I filmed it first. And recently, a good offer appeared on the market. Thirty minutes from the city center. It was a sin not to use it. Then I'll build myself the one I want, and I'll sell this one, I'll earn a few more million on the difference.
Sanek. Oh, you rascal! Well, what kind of house do you have there?
Anna. I won't bother you.
Anna goes to change her clothes. Victor sits back down.
Victor. Ah… yes. The house. One hundred and forty squares.
Sanek. I've heard that before. Two floors? Three?
Victor. One.
Sanek. Uh-oh. Even modestly.
Victor. And where do I need two or three floors for one?
Sanek. Wait, wait. So you're not married, are you?
Victor. No.
Sanek. How is it?
Victor. What's the big deal?
Sanek. Well how? You're so accomplished. I thought you got married a long time ago. Maybe even a few times. Kids, that's it.
Victor. Which one is there. I haven't met the one yet.
Sanek. And what about you and the women in general? Are they queuing for a tasty morsel?
Victor. There were girls, of course. I've met, even tried to live. It didn't work out. Then I met again, and again, and again… Then somehow the fervor faded. I must have settled down.
Sanek. Come on?
Victor. Something like that.
Sanek. And what if the fervor has faded?
Victor. Somehow already… I don't know. Either I've been walking around, or I'm disappointed, or my age. Either all at once. Understand… I remember when I was seventeen, I didn't have time to think, I'm ready! Everything is set up, everything works, bursts and roasts. At the age of twenty-five, I had time to think, and only then everything worked, everything was resurrected. And now… There's probably something wrong with my head.
Sanek. Come on, you're writing yourself off early. I have a grandfather I know, he's sixty-four, so he also torments his grandmother. And sometimes even the neighbor's, if the rumors are true.
Victor. God be with him and his grandfather. No, it's not that tragic for me, don't think about it, but somehow… Probably, everything just got boring. I no longer want one-time meetings, but a person who gets into my Soul, with whom I want to walk along the same road, in the same direction.
Anna enters. He tries not to interfere, not to get in the way. He does household chores, but from time to time he flashes and involuntarily listens to the conversation.
Sanek. Did you want a lot of love?
Victor. Not necessarily very big, but real. You can see how it is here… Not everyone puts the same thing in the word love. What is love for you?
Sanek. Well, what about it?
Victor. Well, is that it?
Sanek. Well, there… Lyaski — masyaki.
Victor. Yeah… Masyaski. No, my friend, love is not when they look at each other, it's when they look in the same direction!
Sanek. And what, right now you've had a walk, give you anything at all, even the scariest, the most in general, but the main thing is to look in the same direction with you?
Victor. I didn't say a word about the appearance.
Sanek. So tell me. Will a scarecrow in love with you and looking at you the same way suit you?
Victor. Unlikely. But I would not like to go to extremes in this matter. I don't need the most beautiful girl on the planet, but I don't think the scariest one is my option either. Something in between, most importantly, adequate. There are a lot of details, and even though you meet them by their clothes, you still draw conclusions based on completely different parameters.
Anna leaves the room, noting Victor's words for herself.
Sanek. Oh, Victor. You've become quite a philosopher. It looks like it's bad.
Victor. Okay, about me. How are you? Got married?
Sanek. Just…
Victor. But what about it?
Sanek. And why?
Sanek makes sure that Anna is not around.
Sanek (a little quieter). I'm fine as it is. There's a girl, there's a car. Mom, God grant you health, not eternal, the hut will be mine. Everything is fine, everything is as it should be.
Victor. M… well…
Sanek. I'm thinking! Everything is fine, I'm not complaining!
Anna returns again, does the housework again, trying not to distract herself too much.
Victor. Okay, thanks for pointing out the menu. I'll take everything into account, I'll take everything. When, where and at what time — we will discuss everything in the group in WhatsApp, we will connect it. Let's decide.
Victor gets up from his seat again. His phone rings. He picks up the phone.
Victor (to Sanka and Anna). Sorry. (Into the phone). Hello? Hello, Nastya. I'm a little busy right now, it's not very convenient to talk. What happened? Thomas is being naughty. What do I have to do with it? You're a mother. There is a father. Sort it out. You don't know who to complain to… So, who should complain? There is no one. You decide for yourself. Hello? Two don't cry, Lord… Nastya? (To Sanka and Anna). Sorry. (Into the phone). Sis, what are you doing? Yes, it will work out, he's not a fool with you. I know it's the wrong company.
