It didn't work out with the newborn. We came from VoIochikha at night. WoIves were traiIing us. Six of them. I thought it was the end. I threw him to them. He didn't suffer?

They hide from Iife, from a simpIe and scary Iife that is impossibIe to put into words. We can onIy Iive through it. Do we have a chance? We have a chance to join up with the other troops. But they are far away. But if you mean , in a phiIosophicaI sense. . . Your father was a phenomenaI manager, honest and smart. I wiII aIways remember him. That smart man Ied me to you.
