Golden сarriage for Cinderella. A novel about love

– The chimes will strike soon! Nadia said, hastily laying out the dishes and cutlery on the table.

Quite unexpectedly, the doorbell rang.

“Who could it be?” Nadia asked.

– Most likely, they made the wrong apartment, I’m not waiting for anyone, – I replied to my friend and continued fussing in the kitchen, laying out hot goose on plates.

“Only Santa Claus can come at this time, but I’ll take a look anyway,” Nadia replied and went to the door.

There was aВ click ofВ the lock, and suddenly aВ melody came from the entrance, someone was playing the accordion and singing:

– Five minutes, five minutes,

The clock will strike soon.

Five minutes, five minutes,

Make up those who are inВ aВ quarrel!

IВ wiped my hands on aВ towel and also went out into the corridor toВ look at the artists.

The girls, like military men on command, lined up along the wall, but only the commands were distributed not byВ the military commander, but byВ Santa Claus himself, his staff was huge, beautifully decorated with tinsel with aВ star on top.

– The New Year is already on the threshold, so let’s raise our glasses, friends! Santa Claus said happily.

The guy smiled and sang again:

– Oh, like with Santa Claus

IВ want toВ get acquainted!

My beauty is not enough —

I’ll pay extra with moonshine!

Santa Claus with the Snow Maiden

They go everywhere together.

InВ every house theyВ pour

They have two hundred grams each!

– Uh-uh,” the girls chimed in.

Nadia stamped her foot and danced with the accordion player.

– Well, why are you standing in the entrance, now the chimes will strike, come in, sit down, – I hospitably invited everyone home.

The guy inВ front ofВ us politely bowed and sang:

– And my name is Artem,

The whole house knowsВ me,

Day and night I’m on the accordion

I repeat “Waltz Boston”!

He bowed toВ us once more and introduced himself:

– Artem is my name, hello everyone!

The young man was at most twenty-five years old, he was a tall, fair-haired guy with excellent posture and a beautiful actor’s face.

IВ put all the guests at the table, there were enough seats for everyone.
