Diamond’s

Igor met her in the company store “Diamond”. She stood behind the counter showcase where adorned with gold rings glittering with diamonds inserted. Glitter jewelers beckoned Igor colorful play of light, iridescent sparks spy Hive polished stones. Enchanted magic power of gold and glitter of diamonds he did not immediately realize that it has been broken sticks out half an hour here.

– You want something to buy? – Singing girl’s voice brought him out of oblivion and reverie. The guy knew that speaks directly to him, and lifted up his eyes, tearing them from the light of jewelry in the window. Two emeralds shone no longer in the window and in front of an attractive girl, extraterrestrial sparkling light, tenderly looking at Igor. The boy was struck by this view, as they say on the spot. Magic and some attractive force lived in them.

– You want something to buy? – I sang the girl again. But he continued to treat her. Golden hair color shade depth eyes gave clear depths of the sea. A correct oval face, her mouth a little chubby and a little upturned nose, gave resemblance to the beauty queen, whose portrait he had seen in one of the American magazines, bought at a kiosk printing.

– I, I, I look like this, – said Igor embarrassed. And having seized him, continued, – And tell me, how to distinguish between a normal diamond from a real diamond?

She abruptly turned away to hide a smile and pretending that someone was looking eyes turned to the guy to control himself and has profound connoisseur, began to explain: – Diamond is the same, but…

But he was not listening to her. Igor admired her as just admiring the brilliance of precious stones.

– And your a stone? – Has brought to the consciousness of Igor.

– What did you say? – Mechanically he asked.

– And your a stone? – And with curiosity began to look at the guy, and then added, – My Sapphire!

– My Emerald. – Igor answered at random, without delving into the symbolism of stones.

– And you, which one is most like?

– Emerald – repeated guy looking at the beautiful eyes of the girl, then cautiously added, can I take you home after work?

– I live near here and get home very quickly. I was just one stop on the pass line trolley.

– Okay, so after work I’m waiting for you at the entrance. – So saying, he turned abruptly and walked out of the store.

In the morning, Igor told his friend Oleg, he met with an amazing girl.

– And what, you went to the movies with her, accompanied her and even kissed? – asked Oleg. What will happen to meet her again. At that Oleg busily boomed: – Come on, come on, keep up with soaring living. And most importantly, do not forget, she’s from the Department of diamonds.

– I will not forget, but with her, I think, forget everything…

Friends walked through the plant in the flow of workers. They waited for the shift. Igor technology department, Oleg metalwork shop.

Igor graduated from the faculty of the Institute of Technology; he joined the factory as an intern, where he met with Oleg. Oleg liked Igor like a mighty big man. He had a surprisingly shy and timid child at a meeting with the girls. Igor, on the contrary, behaved naturally in their circle freely, even a little self-confidence that impressed Oleg. The two friends could often be seen in the city park, where they spend the majority of time off work. Today, after the change, we met friends in the alley of the park and strolling discussed here for the umpteenth time the same question, a question of money production.

Igor was slightly below Oleg. But boots on the platform of fashion, gave him a little more growth and it becomes somewhat above average. He was dressed in gray, mouse color, costume, which used to go to work. Long black hair, nose and chin slightly extended, were the stroke profile of the modern man who liked women. In addition to all of his blue eyes insolent with scattered eyes staring at the female sex, enveloping mist mysterious mystery.

In contrast, Oleg, Igor was the opposite. High strength to bear guy, different loud bass. His face was always sullen, prickly eyes looking at others from under frowning eyebrows. Heavy massive chin spoke of uncommon strength of its owner Close-cropped hair and a small flat nose, gave him the look of a heavyweight boxer. Common interests and hobbies have combined these different people, cementing friendship. Both liked to drink. Before meeting with Igor Oleg drank everything from alcohol and vodka factory to cheap wine, the so-called “ink”. But then came the life of Oleg, Igor and led him into the world of luxury wines, cognacs and smart women. Naturally the money for all this they did not have. A whirlwind of carbon already circled the imagination, creating a picture of the exciting entertainment.

– We like air needed money. – Said Oleg, inciting shoe yellowed leaves in the alley of the park.

– Yes, my dear boy, I had to feel it too. Listen, you could sell the diamonds?

– What?

– And, in general you are oak in these matters. Well, okay, I listen, I have an idea. – Igor has told all that Lena was the name of the girl with emerald eyes, has long bothered him that he wants to take the diamonds in the store. What she told him in detail about the alarm and location of surveillance cameras and a method of storing valuables.

– Do not! Do not go! – I protested after hearing Oleg.

– Why?

– What kind of a fool to get into the store alarm. You do not have to cope with.

– What do you suggest?

– In the afternoon to pick them up.

– And, you know, you’re right. Leaving one rescue, saleswomen go to dinner.

At the next meeting with Lena, Igor found out when she is on duty. And every detail outlined his plan to Oleg. In the morning one-time friends took leave. Time passed quickly in the cinema

around 13—00, they came out of the theater. Igor came to the store alone. He was holding a briefcase. Lena met his friendly smile.

– Igor, I have waited for you, you brought that promise?

– Yes. – He said. – Let’s go to the room.

The back room was a table with two chairs. The walls are also very often consisted of a set into the safe where valuables were kept. There also hid them in the night. Igor went in and put in on the table bag, opened it, and then not giving time to recover Lena, a towel soaked with chloroform, wrapped her head fiercely resisted the girl. When the body is dropped limply to the floor, he took a towel, put it in his briefcase and walked out of the room.

When returning from dinner saleswoman discovered Broken Glass counter with stolen jewels and Lena sleeping in the back by a strong dose of anesthesia, immediately called the police.

Oleg met Igor in the doorway of a neighboring house. By taxi, they got to the airport. The plane brought criminals in Odessa. There are two diamond brooches in denominations of twenty thousand dollars, the captain of the Italian ship bound for US ports, promised to take them to New York.

Friends cheered. They took a cabin in a comfortable passenger cabin. Tightly supper, and noting the deal fair whiskey “Jameson”, they went to sleep. At night in the open sea in their cabin quietly opened the door, letting in five people in a sailor’s uniform. Without saying a word, they tied Igor, thrusting his pre-gag in her mouth, Oleg was not there. During this time, he watered the waves of the Black Sea whiskey from the torment of his seasickness. splashed another batch in the sea, it became a little easier, and he decided to return to the cabin. Coming closer, I saw two guys go out the door of his cabin. The night was dark and he could not see. He hid behind a corner, and then began to observe what would happen next. The two that were signed to the deck of the cabin and the rest dragged associated Igor. With the fire board, Oleg took the gaff and went to the aid of another. Cutting the skull two of the sailors, three of the remaining darted away, leaving the bound body of another. Oleg untied him and said to him:

– It is necessary to pass the buck with this ship.

– And the diamonds? – Igor asked anxiously.

– I was still asleep when you went out and hid under canvas bag lifeboat. Come quickly, while we did not have. They shadow slid to the boat and quickly became one of them down to the water. When the boat reached the sea themselves descended the ladder and pushed off from the ship sailed away into the open sea. This morning on the boat, they found the light of day emergency supply of water, dry rations and briefcase stolen jewelry that Oleg hid on this boat.

– You know, my brother, because you saved my life. – Looking into the eyes of Oleg, Igor said.

– A friend is you to me, or what? – Oleg sluggish boomed.

– That’s what we can not show our treasure to anyone else. Now we’re the victims. When we pick up, no one should find diamonds and gold. Let’s split evenly and hide on itself so that no dog is not found.

Oleg nodded, took a seat on the portfolio and the boat began to lay out the jewelry.

– You have a belt on his trousers, leather or tailored? – Said Igor.

– Made of artificial leather. – Oleg replied.

– So it is a double, and there is much to push your share.

– A brooch?

 

– And that brooch? – Said Igor.

– Well, if you smash?

– You do not lose anything. Gold, as gold, so it will remain, and diamonds as well, okay?

– Aye, Captain!

They laughed their salvation and began to hide treasures in the trouser belt. All went remarkably well. None of the product is not lost, and was neatly squeezed into the seat. Then belts solemnly hoisted on the location, on the trousers. The portfolio was solemnly committed to the sea, and friends began to drift into the blue expanse of the Black Sea until they picked up a Spanish merchant ship bound for Spain from Turkey.

Ring

– My son! – Breaking a weak voice called an old man lying in bed. – Son, you hear me?!

– Yes! – I said Bass sitting on a chair, broad guy. – What, grandpa?

– Son, I die. I smell, here it is at my head with a scythe. The cold has chosen me. – The old man took two heavy sighs and hoarse voice continued weakening – Take it home, right there in the box near the mirror – he pointed to a cabinet with a large mirror – all that I have.

And quietly died. Grandson grandfather buried with full honors. He has not sold a massive gold ring, which is found in the box. All funeral expenses covered their meager savings. Grandfather was dear grandson. Having lost his father and mother too early, he brought Grandfather and Granddaddy learned the joys and sorrows. I loved all orphan soul Granddaddy, which replaced his father and mother. And there is no longer heat an empty house in the village. Do not meet him more affectionate words, do not say to him: – “There’s grandson in the oven cushy soup, get.”

Loneliness of the blue suddenly flooded wave oppressed young heart, drove off with cold hut.

– What are you pinned, Dmitri? – I asked the foreman tractor brigade collective farm, where he worked man.

– This ring, the memory of his grandfather, gold, among other things, – he said, pointing his hand while wearing the ring on the ring finger, and continued, – will sacking, Zachariah.

– Why so?

– Melancholy me alone in the house, I go earn some money, build a brick house. Well, after the second marriage will be.

– So what we have not been able to build you a house collective farm?

– No, I want to own, to their, own expense.

– Well, where I am going?

– In the mines in Siberia.

– Gold wash?

– It is the same; there are earnings, say hi.

– Well, well, come on, come on.

Dmitri resigned from the farm where he worked for five years as a tractor. He was now twenty-fifth year. The guy was tall. The dark gypsy looks, attracts local girls. In it they saw and power and become a beauty. Dmitry has been famous and quiet disposition. I do not drink and did not smoke. Occasionally he goes to a dance club. Girls secretly sigh for him, but he did not show, it seemed, no attention to them. But it seemed at first glance. He reached for it with his whole being, but to overcome himself, he could not, to come and invite Woman hold it, because his beloved he wanted to present everything that she could wish for in this world. In his dreams since childhood lived rosy picture of the rich aristocratic life, which is so beautifully told grandpa, who served as a footman at the manor yard. Grandfather grandson was drawing pictures of entertainment rich young Pan, fueling the imagination of small Dimka. And now it’s time, Dmitri was determined to buy a large amount of money. Marry. Fill darling gifts. Rebuild a beautiful house. Buy a car and live happily. And maybe even move to the city.

With such dreams, he arrived in the taiga village of Gold. The office issued its mine workers with a substantial salary, plus bonuses and even. By counting in your mind, as it turns out, Dmitri smiled satisfactorily. The hostel it is embedded in the lock and closed the nightstand where his belongings, toiletries, razor, and most importantly, a passbook. With neighbors in bed, he did not speak and did not get acquainted, he kept to himself. Of course it could not like guys with whom he lived in the same room. Then one day, after the salary earned money when pleased, he returned from a savings bank, which took the wages at the table sat three men with drinking.

– Hey, lad, what are you Biryukov go? – Said the blue-eyed boy, realizing plane dull eyes at the newcomer.

– And your cares? – Said Dmitry unfriendly.

– You be quiet. I’m with you on a human talk. – Drinking buddies were silenced. In the smoke-filled room was a painful silence.

– Hey, leave me alone you, prim young lady from me. – Dmitry lay down on the bed and pulled the blanket over his head, turned to the wall. Insult, a hundred times fueled a disapproving glances and under the drinkers, drunk and insulted by the remark guy said, referring to Dmitry:

– Do not leave me alone, because for almost a month you CORN my eyes.

– Floating, I’m going to ask politely, but not here and I shall sleep. – For evil hissed Dmitry.

– You do not barnyard grass and courtesy you would not hurt to call. – Chimed another. The third sub-drunk guy said: – Men are not worth it. To work tomorrow, I’ll go to him. – And he left slamming the door. Second silence followed. A neighbor, evil looking back at Dmitri, became stowed safely in his bed. Workers in the dorm trying not to violate the residence, knowing that violating this mode fall into the black list, and will never be able to be arranged on a meat place. Therefore, in this introduction Dmitry colleagues so peacefully ended. So he lived alone, with no one talking in his secluded world. Entertainment one, which he himself is allowed to swim in the cool, even on the hottest day, the waters of the river.

In the evening sun gilded the sand beach. Quiet splashing transparent waters of the river. The needles of pine trees, emitting a refreshing invigorating “drink” taiga flavors, drunk and dizzy. Dmitry undressed and sat on the beach, admiring the sunset colors. We breathe the air inexpressible balm consisting of the smell of pine needles, pine resin, impurity mushroom, almost inaudibly smells mixed with aromas of last year’s rotting leaves and fatigue of the day took place disappearing without a trace. The body poured energy boost, like running, jumping, as a child. Laugh and love. But loneliness bears a invisible veil, restricting movement, causing sadness. He could not help remembering his grandfather with it was so good. His eyes large black eyes often stayed at Mr. array of gold rings, memory Granddaddy.

One day, as usual after work, Dmitry came to a favorite place by the river with a bottle of champagne Coy. Today is his first quarterly bonus. He got the money, put it all on the passbook, leaving some food and one bottle of champagne, decided to drink in honor of this event. Undressed on the golden sand, uncork a bottle, foaming stream, hissing spilled on the sand. After waiting when the last remnants of its drops fell to the feet, and only then, he turned it, and drank from the bottle all at once. Tossing the bottle, he jumped to his feet, and quickly jumped into the cold river and swam for a long time, is that out of the water. Cold body, pleasantly touched the warm sand, like when he was a child warm stove in the winter. Basking pleasant languor of heat, he collapsed on the sand, raking his fingers through his loose weight showered themselves. The wine is pleasant balm has hit in the head, paint the setting sun became more contrast and the sun gilding the beach beam suddenly turned into gold grains. Dmitri watched in surprise change in color of sand as the sand was like gold. He began to pour out of the palm of your hand palm.

– “Just think of it, and then the sand and the sand is, the only difference is not in the big, the gold, and it’s just so microscopic pieces of stones.”

It came into possession of the largest grain of sand, brought it to the ring, comparing its color with the color of gold on the ring. Then he threw a grain of sand and involuntarily began to consider a ring of ancient works. It is interesting to find out when it did the jeweler? Father, I remember, said that this ring he got from his grandfather, and he gave some kind of pan, for my grandfather saved his life, breaking up the robbers robbed Pana coach. Dmitry carefully removed a ring from his finger and began to twirl it in his hands. Looking suddenly caught a barely discernible ledge. Hook nail, guessed the guy hooking and pulling the tab to the top. The upper part suddenly moved, revealing the inner emptiness. Dmitry tried several times to open and close the patterned gold cap. It closes silently easy to open as it does not require much effort,. “So this hidden poison in the ring!” – Imbued guess the thought. Suddenly an arrow pierced another thought. Dmitry lightning on his feet. Find a bottle of champagne, he took her trembling hands.

– “To think that a kilogram a kilogram. If you take the three dollars per gram, there are three thousand dollars! And in rubles if one gram of say, two hundred rubles, th, two hundred thousand.” His head was spinning from the suddenly open gold mining. And now, when Dmitri came ashore, he had long waited, and then making sure that he had not been watching, he went to a secluded place and poured the golden sand of the ring into the neck of a bottle of champagne.

So it went in the winter, and even in the dead of winter. To do this he had to become a walrus. Pour the gold, he plunged into the hole, then rubbed red body and wrapped in Midwife tallow-toe, left.

After working for the put term, more cheerful, he designed vacation. Neighbors in bed, working guys have noticed a change in Dmitri. He tried to please them all, and for this was communicative, shirt guy, sparing no money for drinks and snacks in the payday. And guys are not stingy with honors accompanied him on vacation. Dmitry decided to go to the village. But the wasps leave its main aim, of course was selling stolen gold and accountable, he decided to sell in Moscow, did not know…

Dmitry for that arrived in Moscow and stayed in a hotel. Bottle of golden sand lying on the bottom of the duffel bag wrapped in linen underwear. This bag he instinctively shoved under the bed, which is now lying in the clothes of imagining himself a millionaire. Of course the gold warm feelings, but now it is realized, that is the question? Racked head guy. Neither your relations or friends, no one. No one knows him from the clandestine buyers of stolen jewels, so how can that be? He bought a newspaper advertisement, where on the page, buy, almost the whole page was devoted to buying scrap gold, sand and metal drag. When he was looking for a hotel room, then another, and gold buyers saw the advertisement in the form panels where the front and back in large letters was written “Buying gold, scrap, sand.” Ads in the newspaper guy inspired confidence and he decided not to call Declared-mends, and come up with a small portion of the sand and offer buyers-street. So did he held in his hand while holding a plastic bag all day, not daring to go to street buyers, which counted as many as six different parts of the city. And I decided that the break for a few bags of sand and will offer various buyers-up, will not come true until the whole batch. For a start it was necessary to sell a single package. It’s for faithfulness took two ready-made package, and in the morning left the hotel. I decided to go in a taxi on the Arbat, there is also a certain gold buyers. At the park, leading into Arbat, Dmitri stopped and began to look through the eyes of the buyer. Just sitting on the bench alone with a cigarette. It was obvious that the person advertising sat down to rest. Dmitri rushed toward him, sat beside him.

– You free? – I asked. Sitting advertising man did not answer, just looked at the scattered Dmitry sleepy blue eyes.

– “What would he say that?” – Frantically flashed the thought in your head, do not have to immediately start with the sentence, and then: -Tell me where you can buy American cigarettes?

– You’re that fell from the oak? Do you know that on every corner and in every kiosk selling? – Drag on his cigarette with relish “Marlboro” man advertising, then take a closer look at his neighbor, blowing smoke. – Listen, man, I do not need to talk nonsense! I can see that you need. Tell me how much and be done with it.

– Well pack.

– And money is enough?

– “Yes, he is a fool, or what?” – Dmitry thought irritably, but decided to continue – Enough!

– Drive a hundred dollars and all yours. – The guy pulled out a bag of white powder in the plastic package and handed Dmitri.

– Why so expensive?

– You’re a fool, or what? It’s heroin, the highest standard.

 

Dmitri suddenly glad of such a meeting, because with this person, you can safely sell at least the entire bottle of golden sand. Darker still digging in your pocket stretched a hundred dollars, and took the bag, hidden in his pocket. Dmitry has boldly said:

– Listen, man, I have items that you want to sell. I promise you ten percent of the total profit.

– Show! – I said with unconcealed spark interest in the view of a person advertising. Dmitry trembling hand, I took a test package, with about ten grams of gold dust. The man took the bag, examined it and then asked: – A lot?

– Ten grams.

– I do not how much you have it?

– With kilograms typed.

– Wait for me tomorrow with the goods! – Advertising man stood up and casually walks left his advertising buy gold on the chest and back.

The next day, Dmitry was sitting in the park on the spot. At his shoulder was a duffel bag, which he held in his lap. He was approached by three men after them came the familiar man in a denim suit. He greeted him and said:

– Let’s go to the car.

He sat in the back seat of white “Mercedes”, and soon found themselves all have some – something lost in the grove near Moscow dacha. There’s a room furnished with antique furniture waiting for him groomed kind gray-haired man.

– Product! – He said shortly logged along with the entire company, a person advertising. He nodded Dmitry shows a pier.

Dmitri took out a bottle of champagne. Bottle took one of the new arrivals, health-th gray-haired fellow and presented. He opened it, removing the cork, poured the sand into his palm, looked at the golden sand, then shook him to the floor.

– Can you supply me? – Carefully looking at Dimitri, waiting for an answer.

– I have not heard the price you pay? – And became determined to face grizzled. The man smiled wryly and answered: – Ten percent, all right?

– I travel in Moscow, I want to sell and tie, so the price is too low. For such cases it is necessary to increase the rates.

– Rafid, bringing with him busy, take the bottle and shoved him.

– Shut up, here I decide, I realized! And you will not climb in their case sent to the village pigs graze, realized! – All together neighing.

– Look here, – asked the gray-haired to Dmitri, – I have a legitimate business buying scrap gold and even gold. As you know, this is the roof, because there is the flow of illegal and if you are ready to supply sand to me, I will not hurt you. So, tell me how much you can get sand in the quarter, half a year, a year?

– No, I travel and do not intend to do the delivery.

– And where are you going? – Almost tenderly he asked gray.

Dmitry told all about himself and when he finished gray said:

– Good. – And walked over to the guy, I gave a bottle of golden sand. And he added: – I’ll be back. – I went out.

As soon as the door closed behind him, clutching the iron hand grabbed the back guy, not even had time to come round. Gagged deprived him of opportunities to scream…
