John's Center My favorite place of spiritual rest. The cold morning wind tickled my face. The bright sun was shining, heating the yard with its rays
- Good luck, dad. - I say after my father. Which goes in the other direction. My mother and I are changing in the parents' room. I run like on wings to my beloved Sasha. Blinded by happiness, I run to the second floor. And finally I run to the office and get on the treadmill.
- How are you? - Liza kindly asks, looking at me with her big gray eyes. Without taking my eyes off the door, it opened with a bang
I was waiting for this figure, so strong and powerful, but at the same time gentle and calm
Sasha enters the office holding the phone in his strong hands, bright lights dance in his eyes
- Glad to see you Sofiyka. - we hug with our signature hug, I hug him, because it's the right way to hug. It was as if I was sharing energy with Sasha.
- I have good news. - I say. Fireworks light up in my eyes because a huge lump of joyful emotions rolls over me like a hunting party in the mountains.
- Ah, it's interesting to hear. - says Sasha, igniting my desire to talk and blurt out everything that's on my mind even more.
There wasn't much news, not as interesting, but I'm a writer and I can change them somewhat and make them more interesting. The always smiling Misha enters the office. I call him Mykhasyk. Mishanya was in second place after Sasha, but still Sasha still remains on the throne of my little heart. Lutsenko has been a kindred spirit for me for many, many months.
- Listen, Sofiyka, maybe you can go outside with us today, so to speak, there will be a staircase. - for my ears, the word "staircase" was quite unpleasant, but I let it pass by my ears, I was extremely surprised that I was invited to the rehabilitators' meeting, an ordinary patient with whom the rehabilitators are not familiar
- Of course I will come - I say and feel that my lips spread in a smile.
- Well then, come today on the 12th - Sasha delivered the verdict.
*
12 o'clock came sooner than I thought. Now, walking confidently, holding Sasha's hand, I go to the bench where the rehabilitation therapists and massage therapists are sitting. the red-bearded Lyosha sits majestically cross-legged, shining with his chameleon-like eyes. Liza, Sashkov's faithful assistant, is sitting next to him, standing like a bayonet and Mishanya smiling at all 32.
"Sashka, what's wrong with the young man," Liza says sharply, looking at me with her penetrating gaze.
a humorous fight began and Sasha fell into the bushes.
- I'm fine - quickly answers the boy. - Stop! What is it? - Sasha's hand felt something hard. Sasha rose to his feet. He picked up this strange thing that he felt with his hand. It seems that it was some remote control with a bunch of buttons. Misha and I approached Sasha and I also saw this strange remote control.
- And what will happen if I - Sasha pressed one of the buttons and here, as if in a fairy tale, we flew into the air, as if we were pulled into an invisible whirlwind. It was like a huge centrifuge. In the end, we were thrown out of this maelstrom, so to speak. looking around, I realized that we are not on the territory of the John's Center.
- Where are we? - asks Misha, who is trying to blink.
- Probably in the ass of the world. - Sasha starts his argument.
- Sasha, we are not in Russia. - I looked at him with my brown eyes.
This place was dark and scary. I turned my head and saw that the inscription "April 26, 1932" was scratched on the ground.
- Sasha, we are really in trouble. - I said to the girl.
Sasha said to the inscription on the ground:
- It seems that this remote helps to travel in time.
- How do we get out of here!? - Misha asks impulsively
in this situation, this question was so inappropriate and stupid that I just wanted to disappear.
- So calm down - Sasha's gaze became cold, and his voice became louder
Making his way through the bushes, Sasha led our pack, so to speak. as a real princess was on Misha's shoulders, most likely I did not look like a princess, but like Sharik, who was carried on his shoulders by a beaver.
- Let me go, I'm not your doll - although it sounded like a claim, I said it in fun
"It's already characteristic," said Mishanya, also with an imaginary claim
as I understood, we ended up on a farm during the famine. Children were not laughing in the courtyards, everything was deserted, no human noise was heard, everything was silent and everything was covered by a gloomy dome of clouds. A small boy came out of the bushes with a rustling of branches. A frightened expression appeared in the eyes of the little child.
- Do not be afraid. - says Sasha gently. The boy's little belly was swollen from hunger and his eyes were burning with fire and they were silently asking "Eat"
- Did you bring something to eat? - whispers the boy quietly.
Sashko rummaged in his pocket and found a Snickers candy. - Keep what you need.
- What it is? - the boy recoiled in fright, his eyes became big with fear.
- Well, chocolate. - say Misha, but it seems that the boy does not understand him
- It looks like a dog's boot - said the little one
- Well, let's eat - I urge.
- No, I will take my father, because they are already dying of hunger - says the boy and runs with his bare feet down the hill to his house. Misha I and Sasha went with the boy. The mazanka hut seemed unwelcomingly dark and seemed to be moaning for help. Every corner of the house howled with hunger. a man was lying on the stove, moaning and breathing heavily. Somewhere in the past, a baby cried, the older brother quickly runs up if he closes his mouth with his little finger
- Quiet! - ordered the boy. - because they will hear that they will eat you before you even have time to open your mouth
- Here on our farm, a woman recently slaughtered her nine-year-old daughter and put the meat in a barrel and salted it.
- We need to find food for them. - I said and turned my head to Sasha.
- Well, that's understandable, but how will we get food if we can't return to our time and we don't know how to get out of here. - Sasha's face looks pensive, her eyebrows are furrowed in thought. He scratches his beard and pulls it
- We went to the place where we ended up
- our trio leaves the house and goes to the same place.
- Which button did you press? - Misha asks Sasha.
- It looks like this - Sasha presses the same button. We fly into the air again and after five seconds we find ourselves in a crowd of people
- Dear citizens of Chernobyl - says the voice of the gramophone.
- What? Chernobyl, let's get out of here! - after these words, Sasha presses the same button.
This time we find ourselves somewhere in the forest and my ears are pierced by a roar so loud that I thought my eardrums were bursting from it
- I hope it's my glitch. - I say in a trembling voice and hide behind Sasha, who is standing frozen. His strong legs seem to have grown to the bottom.
- I have to upset you, you are not a glitch. - Misha is cornered
I looked out of the cave and saw that a huge dinosaur came out of the bushes. he roared and the eardrums were about to burst.
- I thought these guys were already extinct. - Sashko said quietly
- Yes, they died out, but we found ourselves in a time where they are still alive. - a huge monster walked on the ground, his steps caused an earthquake
- We are running away, he is coming at us! - shouted Misha, and a really big animal came straight at us, snapping its fangs.
- For him, we will be tastier than brizol - Sasha firmly held me and Misha by the hand.
- We need to climb somewhere higher so that this creature doesn't get us, - said Sashko
I clung to Sashka, as they say "crabs", we did not climb some mountain.
At one point, a whole flock of some strange birds flew over us
- What other animals are these?! - shouts Misha in a panic
- These are pterodactyls - Misha seems to have heard me.
- Jump on them! - shouted Sasha. these giant flying dinosaurs birds clicked their beaks, they clearly had a desire for our flesh
- You are normal? - shouted Misha to Sasha
- No. - answered Sasha - I SAID JUMP
Holding onto the neck of this giant flying dinosaur, the three of us sat trying to keep our balance.
- Do you know how to control this bird? - I asked Sasha, although I knew that this question would be inappropriate
- A real professional - Oleksandr answered sarcastically.
- This bird doesn't seem to really want to make contact.
- I already understood it.
At one point, the pterodactyl lowers and falls. Falling darkness.
I opened my eyes, we found ourselves somewhere in a spring.
- What happened ? - I asked, as if Misha, an alcoholic from Bodun, seems to have already drunk and walked in circles over the unconscious Lutsenko
- How can we get him out of this state - I reasoned in my voice
- Can, according to the tradition of all fairy tales, kiss and he will kiss? Misha expressed his opinion
I gave him a withering look
- I understand, the idea is not very good, there is one method, it is very effective. - Misha cleared his throat properly - LUTSENKO, YOU'RE LATE FOR CLASS!
Sasha opened his eyes, stood up and shook his head.
- How many fingers do you see? - I showed Sasha two fingers
- Two - Oleksandr muttered under his breath
- And yes. - Misha showed his middle finger, Sasha's fist went up in the air and Misha fell back, clutching his nose
- Got it.
- Yes, I understand what's up with the dinosaurs. But we have to escape from this world, it would be more accurate to say from now on.
Sasha pressed the red button on the remote control
We found ourselves in some kind of cave
I stood up Leaning on the wall. Misha went outside
- We are in the ice age - said Misha, they got him like 5 kopecks
- What are you doing? - Oleksandr went out with Misha.
- We are really in the ice age. - Sasha's voice was surprisingly calm
At one point, I heard a soft growl behind me and turned around. Two pairs of yellow eyes were looking at me
I crawled up to Sasha slowly, and crawling up quietly was the only possible option because my legs were cotton wool.
A saber-toothed tiger emerged from the darkness. chased after us To be honest, it's a pity that this remote control didn't give us a pack of diapers during this temporary trip.
It seems that this big cat's paws are tired and she still lags behind us. Happiness did not last long, here a whole herd of mammoths was coming at us
- What again? - Misha said when we ran to the side - I'm already tired
- It seems these guys - Sasha points to the mammoths - are peaceful.
- I have an idea. - I raised my finger up
- Which one? - asks Sasha
I approached the mammoth and tapped it on the trunk. the hairy giant took his trunk, wrapped me around the waist and put me on his back
- Do the same! - I shouted to my friends.
Misha had some doubts, but Sasha took him by the scruff of the neck and pulled him straight to the mammoth. The hairy elephant seemed friendly. We lay down on the mammoth's back and fell asleep
I dreamed that I was sitting in the kitchen in the Ioanniv center and was eating a delicious banosh
Sashka's whisper woke me up.
- Sofia, you are drooling, and why are you clucking your tongue?
- I just had a dream.
We got off the mammoth
We won't last long here - said Sashko - we need to return to our time, but how?
- To be honest, I don't know, but we have to escape at least from now on, because we don't know how many more creatures are waiting for us that want to eat us.
- Can you drag these animals into our time and Mrs. Sveta will feed them? - Misha was joking, but Sasha was not in the mood for us.
Teleportation again. we ended up somewhere in the forest. We lay on the soft grass
Here, somewhere in the distance, a branch and the stomping of a dozen pairs of feet was heard
Sashka and I, taking into account past experience, sat in the bushes knowing that some wild animals might be outside, but Misha seems to have forgotten about the experience and got out of hiding
a whole group of Arava Indians ran to Misha, there were a dozen men and a dozen women, they grabbed the poor fellow and dragged him to their den, Sashka and I watched all this without deciding to follow these Indians because they had a whole arsenal of different spears. when the Arava Indians disappeared over the horizon, Sasha slapped himself on the forehead.
- We need to somehow get Misha out of here - I pointed with my gnarled finger somewhere in the distance
- Well, of course, we will get him out, but how?
after these words of Sasha, a strange portal opened, a drone fell out of this portal, only it was an unusual Drone It was a drone with a built-in hook
- Whoever it is, I am grateful to him - I said, looking at the gift from the portal.
- Sofiyka, let's rest a little, because I'm tired and you probably need a recharge too - Sasha lay down in the soft grass
- What about Misha? - confused I ask my bearded friend.
- I understand your feelings Sofiyka, but I need strength to think and you too. I think Misha will survive and wait for us.
I lay down opposite Sasha and immediately fell asleep.
I woke up from the fact that somewhere nearby there was a buzzing, Sashko seems to have already woken up.
- What is this? - I ask in a sleepy voice, removing brown hair from my forehead
- Mykhailo's rescue - said Sasha briefly. the drone went in the direction where the Arava Indians went. I didn't look at Sashka, who was holding the drone remote control in his hands. He looked interested, so calm and reassuring that he had this whole situation under his sure control. I looked at the screen on the remote control of the drone. There I saw the tops of the trees over which this Shaitan car flew. And finally, the drone came across a settlement of Indians. Sasha directed the drone so that the Indians did not see it. And we saw everything we needed. in the middle of the lawn, like a dead crow, Misha lay in the fetal position. Above it were drawn circles of women in traditional dresses, feathers of various exotic birds sticking out of their dirty hair. The navel was pierced, it was something like a wild piercing. Women of the tribe for
howled, made various sounds, and the men, in turn, sat and watched this procession clapping their hands. Each woman approached poor unconscious Mykhailo and sniffed him as if he were an appetizing cheesecake. Misha seems to have already stammered and was in shock from where he found himself. Sasha directed the drone so that it flew up to Misha and pressed the "Hook" button
The hook that got out of the drone caught Misha's shirt and dragged him along the ground. It seems that these Indians were in some kind of trance and did not notice that their main exhibit was missing. Mikhaylyk was successfully transported And he was lying right next to us with Sash.
- How are you friend? - Sasha asks quietly
- There were five women with me. - it seems that Mykhailo was not very happy that he was taken out of captivity and this phrase of his looked as if he wanted to go back there
- I understand that you haven't had a relationship for a long time, but you don't have to be that crazy to start a relationship with a wild woman whom you hardly know. - Sashko raised an eyebrow in surprise - all the more so, I understand. You really missed the candy-bouquet period about romantic evening walkspen, but not so crazy.- It is better not to touch it. - I said and waved my hand at Mykhailo
Sashko came to the river and watched the sun set
At one point, Misha stood up, approached Sasha and pushed him directly into the water. Sashko fell right into the sea.
We laughed. Sasha spat, but you laughed, this mini party seemed funny, so cute, which I always dreamed of, I wanted such a company of friends. We went to sleep again. They went to bed in the bushes, I curled up in a corner in the fetal position. Sashko lay somewhere in the middle, Misha in the opposite corner.
a thunderstorm started at night and we had to make a hut. There I had to lie down in a heap to keep warm. I had to sleep in a rather strange position. What was not pleasant was that Misha snored like a tractor and Sasha and I had to plug our ears or push our friend to the side with all our might.
The next day. the company decided to teleport again and Sashko pressed the same red button again.
We ended up in some hospital, more precisely, in the maternity hospital, because everywhere there were cries of women in labor, I saw a sign on which it was written:
"September 14, 2010"
- We need to change something in the past! - I said to Sasha and Misha, they seemed exhausted - We didn't just get to this time. Sasha and I ran to the stairs. There I saw a beautiful blonde girl in whom I recognized my mother, at that time she was only 31. she was holding a bag of things in her hands and was limping along the stairs- Good afternoon. I need to talk to you urgently. - I told my mother from the past, I could not normalize my breathing and my thoughts, respectively - you will have a daughter in the future, she will need to see a neurologist, you will end up with the wrong doctor and make a mistake that will greatly harm yoursdaughter and she will be forced to spend her childhood in rehabilitation centers and so on. I ask you to be more attentive to doctors.
- What are you talking about? - my mother said in an indignant voice from the past, her eyebrows furrowed and her lips pursed.
- Please take my word for it. - I said. And I felt Sashko tugging at my sleeve, telling me to run away from here. we teleported again only this time to my old house where I lived before the war.
I walked into my old room and saw my little self
- I need to talk to myself - I said calmly, turning my gaze to the little karaoke girl with brown hair who was sitting and babbling something.
- Hello, girl - the little girl turned her head and looked at me with her beads.
- I want to tell you one thing that when you will be 12 you will meet the best friend in the world, he will give you much more than you think, he will give you will, a true will that no one will give you, so he will be older than you by 14 years, but you will to run to him like she had never run to anyone before. believe me, he will be a second father and a second mother for you. He will be your soul mate
- Will he be handsome? - asks the little girl.
- The most beautiful in the world...
you will also meet your best friend in the rehabilitation center, not only this beautiful young man, but also your mother's like-minded person, who will help you in everything and give valuable wise advice, remember this..

- Sonya, get up, let's come to the Ioanniv center. - my mother shook me and I woke up a typical morning before training.
