Chapter 2

The evening was wonderful! We talked together, laughed, enjoyed these moments. For the past few years, I have been smiling all the time. Every day there were occasions for this. And now Demyan and I left the table and whirled in a waltz to a beautiful melody. I felt like a white bird! With Demyan, every moment has become a true happiness for me! We danced as if we were all alone here. I looked at him and thanked the universe that one day we met! Demyan suddenly picked me up in his arms, circling me again. Our friends applauded, and we clung to each other and, falling to my lips, Demyan passionately gave me a passionate kiss. I answered with the same pleasure and tenderness.
Our table was located by the window, and after about an hour had passed, I heard the sound of a car pulling up. I looked out the wide window and saw a taxi stop. And then importantly he got out of the car Maxim. I gasped in surprise and almost burst into tears again. He looked so mature, stately, strong. He was wearing a black unbuttoned coat, a blue shirt and black trousers. In his hands was a huge basket of white tulips.
Max! I jumped to my feet smiling happily. Demyan pushed his chair to the side, giving me the opportunity to pass by and go out to meet him. Maxim entered the hall like a real king of the situation: with his head held high and his shoulders squared. I walked towards him. It was a bit difficult in heels, but I tried to move faster. We stopped two steps apart.
Wow! Max looked over at me. I habitually grinned, deliberately spinning around my axis, playing with the hem of the dress.
See Paris and die! - he said in amazement, and then smiled softly, - Steph, you are devilishly beautiful! This is for you, princess!
Max handed me the basket. I love tulips so much! Smiling affectionately at almost every flower, I carefully placed the basket on a special stand.
Thanks, Max! I'm so glad you're with us! - with enthusiasm, she rushed into his arms, and this rascal managed at the very last moment, when Demyan was already walking towards us, snatch a kiss on the cheek. Well, or rather, Max just managed to touch his lips to my cheek and I immediately leaned back, increasing the distance between us. Our smiles have not disappeared, but on the contrary, they have become much happier.
Well, hello, brother! Finally, you have deigned to return to us! Demyan grumbled. Although I could see in his eyes that he missed Max. And now they modestly hugged each other and we all headed to our table together.
Oh, Max! Hey! When did you arrive? - Oleg started up and shook his hand.
Hour ago. I neither ate nor drank properly ... I only managed to get the flowers ... - Maxim said, narrowing his eyes a little. He was already about to sit down at the table, but Katyushka called him and stood with her legs on a chair in order to be taller and more visible. Max pretended to be very surprised to see her here. He flew up to the Coil and, leaning towards her, hugged her tightly. She laughed happily and clasped his neck with her small hands, while closing her eyes, as children often do at the moment of the greatest happiness! She kissed him on the cheek, he kissed her nose. Then he took a velvet box from the inside pocket of his overcoat and handed it to her.
And what's in there? our girl giggled, almost jumping for joy.
Open it, kitty! Maxim smiled. While she struggled with the pink box, we all stared at them together. I have always been fascinated by the relationship between Max and Katyusha. He adored her. There is simply no other word for it. I remember when she appeared with us, Demyan and I had to leave for a few weeks and Max agreed to stay with Katyusha so that we would not hire a nanny. Then he even quit smoking. I was shocked when I saw that Max did a great job as a nanny. He himself fed Katya, watered, bathed, played, put her to bed, walked with her. She also became attached to him.
Wow! - Katya exclaimed, - Thank you! Thank you!
Maxim moved a chair closer to the one on which Katya was sitting. And while he was answering questions from Demyan and Oleg, he periodically glanced at how Katyusha was turning his gift in her hands. This is a bracelet, childish, colorful, it seems from some Disney collection. Kate loves these things. Then he placed one hand on the back of a nearby chair. Katya seemed to be deliberately trying to sit higher in order to touch his arm, but she couldn’t do it. Then she did stand on a chair with her feet and buried her fingers in Max's hair. He grimaced a little, as if the sun was too bright in his eyes.
Katyusha, leave Max alone. He didn't even eat anything. He's hungry, and you're disturbing him a little. Let's play later. When he comes to visit us. Agreed, sunshine? - I leaned across the table to her and tried to speak more quietly, but Katya heard me and stopped playing pranks.
... in general, it is quite real. If things continue like this, we will reach a new level.
Well, then how do you plan. Will you expand or ... not yet possible? - asked Oleg. While Irina was flying salmon with sauce and drinking champagne, she often looked at our Katyusha and was touched by her.
We will see. We have enough time. Hurry is needed when catching fleas!
I only caught the end of their conversation, but I can say that inside Maxim has not changed much. He still made us laugh, he still knew how to perfectly express his thoughts, his facial expressions and gestures are just a separate art form.
Demyan, are you generally up to date or did you just become listed as a director ?! - Oleg grinned, which was able to cheer up our company.
