The Only One

Once upon a time, we studied together in the same school. While I was braiding my dolls' hair, Arthur Palachev attended the parties that everyone whispered about.

I had heard a lot about him - he probably didn't know I existed. A troubled teenager who lost his parents, a rebel who constantly broke the rules.

I hadn't seen him for many years, and upon meeting him again, I would have preferred to keep my distance.

But it so happened that he is the only guy I can ask for help.

I don't know what Palachev will demand in return for this favor.

He looks at me in a way that doesn't promise anything good.

But I still have no choice...
