victor rubbed his tires eyes and tossed his jacket over the sofa, before he decided to get himself a drink.

as he passed the phone, his hands hovered over the numbers, ready to dial the number that came to him like second nature.

"vitya?"
"mama?"

but instead, he swatted away his guilt dismissively as if it were the girl on his lap at chris's party, and decided to head upstairs and take a shower.

his mother could wait, like she had been doing for years.

he discarded his white shirt, which no longer smelt of his own cologne and with thick with creases, before the ping of his phone caught his attention.
