Chapter 1. Can something change?

- Mmmm... Get up again. Vlad mumbled lazily and reached for the phone to turn it off.

- Every morning is the same, you need to at least change the sound of the alarm clock, at least I will change something in my day.

Vlad got out of bed and trudged to the bathroom. After washing, Vlad went to the kitchen

- Eating at home or at college is a difficult question, however, if I eat there I will spend money, and if I take it from home, then I will have to cook something.

After thinking for a few seconds, Vlad made a decision.

- I'll take it to college, otherwise I'll waste time cooking.

It is worth saying that Vlad was a peculiar person. He is extremely lazy and did not like to do any unnecessary actions that could take even minutes of his time, but at the same time, if he did fulfill someone's request, he did it as well as possible.

- We must not forget to take the pills - Vlad thought, pouring a glass of water. "Almost finished," Vlad said and headed into the hallway.

Vlad has been taking these pills since childhood. He was not interested in what kind of pills they were and what they were for, his mother told him to drink them, so without any questions or hesitation, he drank them. Out on the street in the face, a cold wind blew

- Cold. It's good to go far

It was November outside and it was already quite cold.

- Why don't you go? Vlad thought. "Although I'll still give this one a hard time for not getting enough sleep."

Vlad went to college.

Another minus 6 hours from life to nowhere.

Vlad entered the college and began to look at the place where he usually changed clothes.

- No more.

Vlad reached the chair and began to change clothes. There were no locker rooms, as such, there was only a cloakroom in which you could drop off your outerwear.

"Of course, I didn't iron the robe," Vlad thought, "Although, who will pay attention to me, except for picky and sentimental teachers who say: "You must look neat, you are health workers."

- Who would give me time to iron this robe - Vlad muttered displeasedly.

- Hello! - I heard fervently from behind, and then a tap on the shoulder.

-A!

The government shifted.

- Scared? Haha.

- No, the pancake just yelled like that, woke up in the morning and wanted to yell something.

- Come on, you're already gloomy in the morning

- And I look very cheerful in the morning.

- Well, why cry or what?

- Sleep.

This cheerful boy was Valera, Vlad's friend and part-time classmate. He is under 2 meters tall, meanwhile, while Vlad is of medium height, and their character is the opposite. One is always cheerful and cheerful, and the second, if it is cheerful, it will rain.

- Why didn't you sleep last night?

- I slept for 4 hours, if not less. And you should have started to change. - Vlad said and threw the bag over his shoulder.

- Not just 4, but as many as 4! Valera said with an important face.

- I'm afraid to even imagine how much sleep you had, if 4 hours is a lot for you.

- Hour 3, probably.

- As usual. Vlad said with a sigh.

- What about yourself?

- What about me?

- Because of whom we did not sleep all day, and then went to the exam sleepy?

- Don't start it was once. - Stretching said Vlad.

- And who does not sleep at night, but works?

- My last order was ... - Vlad thought.

- Is it dependent?

- Yes, I don't even remember when I had the last order.

- I don't understand why you work at night, you just press the buttons.

Vlad worked as a programmer on the Internet and therefore often did not get enough sleep to complete the order on time.

- You can just not go to the couples, but you have to think there.

- M-yes. Would you like a girl on...

Valera did not have time to finish, when Vlad immediately interrupted him.

- Do not even start this conversation, you know what I think about this, but if you forgot, I will repeat. This is a useless action as it may interfere with my work.

- Work work. You only think about her. Valera replied displeasedly.

- Well, due to what I eat and talk about it. Okay, let's change the subject.

- Fine. Did you write an abstract?

- Yes. - but something in this matter confused Vlad - And as I understand it, no?

- Why wrote! - Proudly answered Valera - True, I forgot to print it out - Valera answered with less pride.

- Stable - Vlad answered with a grin, adjusting the bag on his shoulder.

Finally, the guys reached the office and sat down in their place.

- By the way, have you seen the doctors running around here?

- Yeah - Vlad answered, rereading his essay.

- Who do you think it is? They don't look like our teachers.

- Maybe the professors from the university? Vlad answered without looking up from reading.

- And the equipment?

- Equipment? Vlad thought. - Well, maybe ... I don't know, maybe some kind of practice for the 4th year?

- It's possible, by the way. - Valera answered and reached into his pocket to get the phone.

The bell rang and the teacher entered the classroom.

- Hello.

- Hello! – answered the guys in the audience.

- And so today we have the defense of essays.

- Who attacked them? Vlad thought and mentally laughed.

After a couple of philosophy, there was a couple of physical education, which Vlad really did not want to go to, since sport takes a lot of strength, which is already so small.

- That's all - said the teacher and the students began to slowly leave the audience.

- What do we have next? Asked Valera.

- How!? – Surprised asked Vlad.

- What? – Not understanding asked Valera.

- How could you forget that your favorite physical education is next! Vlad replied sarcastically

This was partly true, since Valera did not really like subjects that had to be answered or solved problems; he liked physical education, because there you have to run and jump, and only think where the ball will fly.

- And exactly! Let's go then, until the change of the ball over the net we leave! - Finally waking up from such news, said Valera.

- No, thanks, I'll go read to the library - Vlad answered, fastening his bag.

- What!? Why won't you go? Do you want to work later? - Valera answered annoyed.

- No. I have the opportunity to skip one pair for good behavior. Vlad answered well.

- You are our wise guy! Valera quipped.

- Yes. Look at my grades and say it again. Okay, I went - Vlad answered and went towards the exit.

While Vlad was walking, he remembered Valera's words about the girl.

- Why is everyone at my age looking for a girl? Is there nothing for them to do? It is necessary to give a person time, to walk and everything else that can take time that can be spent on work and spend it on your needs. Sometimes I don't understand my peers.

Finally, Vlad reached the library.

- Hello. – Said Vlad the librarian.

"Hi," she replied.

Vlad went to the far end of the hall to the rack with scientific literature and began to examine the books.

- I read it, this too.

Vlad continued to look at the books in order to find something interesting. It is worth saying that Vlad is not something that would be a bookworm, he began to read actively only when he entered college. It's just that an age has come when you don't want anything and you try to make up for lost opportunities. He was mainly interested in philosophy and scientific literature, as stories or novels seemed too cloying to him, which were not very informative for him. And finally, Vlad found a book that could interest him.

- "Theory of cloning"? Hmm... Why not? Vlad took a book from the shelf, went to the table and began to read.

After some time, which flew by as one moment, a cry was heard in the library.

- Vlad!

Vlad immediately realized that it was him who was called. Because he will not confuse the voice of his friend, and only he could scream at the whole library.

- Quiet! - the librarian said in a half voice

- Oh! Sorry. - Said Valera and went to the side where Vlad was sitting.

Valera went to the table and sat down opposite Vlad. Before he could say a word, he immediately received a completely obvious question.

- And what are you yelling at? Well you saw me, you're a two-meter sleeper. Vlad said angrily.

Well, I didn't see you right away. What are you starting? - Valera said upset.

- You should go to the optometrist then, here the tallest objects are cabinets that do not close me at all, and at the entrance there is only a large notice board that stands on the floor. Vlad said it in one breath.

Vlad had an amazing feature of the so-called "Spanish shame". And when he saw that his friend or someone, whether in a movie or life, did a stupid act or was simply in the spotlight due to some kind of oversight, he also became ashamed, even if the person in the spotlight didn't care .

- Has the great mentor and philosopher Vlad finished everything? - Said Valera to calm the ardor of a friend.

- Yes. Vlad replied calmly, continuing to read.

-Let's have lunch now. - Answered Valera in anticipation of dinner.

Vlad looked at the clock on his phone and he had a few questions:

- So until the end of the pair for another 15 minutes. How did you get here?

- Well, physical education, physical education, and lunch on schedule! - Again cheered up said Valera.

- Well, more than physical education, you only like to eat. - Without looking up from reading, Vlad said

- Everyone loves to eat.

Vlad looked up from his book and looked at his friend.

- Well, except for you. So what are we going?

- 5 more minutes.

- What are you even reading? Valera said and began to examine the book. - "Theory of cloning" - Valera read aloud.

- Did you decide to become a scientist? Valery asked sarcastically.

- No. It's just interesting that any living creature can be cloned, imagine what possibilities this opens up.

Can food be cloned?

- You just want to eat.

- I haven't eaten anything since morning.

- Yes, I understand, I understand - Vlad said and closed the book - I'll just return to the place.

And so the guys reached the dining room. Valera immediately ran to order food, while Vlad went with a calm step to catch up with his friend.

- What will you do? - Asked the woman behind the cash register.

- I'll have potatoes with a cutlet ... No, with two cutlets. Tea and a bun.

- And you? The woman asked Vlad.

- Coffee. - Vlad answered and reached into his pocket for his wallet.

The guys were given an order, and they sat down at the table.

- You again one coffee took? Valery asked puzzled.

- Yes - Vlad answered and began to stir the coffee.

- You're so skinny. - Said Valera, at the same time salting his food.

- Not thin, but moderately well-fed - Vlad said and took a sip of coffee.

"I take it you haven't eaten at home, have you?" Valera said, cooling his food.

"Your ingenuity scares me a couple, you would have thought so in pairs," Vlad quipped.

After a few minutes of sitting in silence, Valera issued:

- Listen, you read that book about cloning.

- Well.

- Is it possible to clone food?

- Most likely, yes, but what?

- Well, just figure out how convenient. Endless food! - Valera answered happily.

- That is, the fact that this will open up new opportunities for medicine, agriculture and many more, where you are not interested in what will save lives?

- Let's just without your moralizing at least for food. - Said Valera, breaking off a cutlet.

- OK. Vlad agreed and stared into the mug again.

- Hello, Vlad!

- Hello - Vlad said and held out his hand.

- I'll sit down?

- Certainly. - Vlad said, taking a sip of coffee.

- Mg. Valera mumbled with a full mouth.

- Where were you today? Misha asked, turning to Vlad.

- Are you talking about the fact that I was not in physical education?

- Yeah.

- In the library, I could skip one pair for good behavior.

- I sat, reading my abstruse books again. - Dozhivav said Valera.

After a couple of tens of minutes, Misha said:

- All right, send it, otherwise it's up to a couple of 10 minutes left.

After class, the friends got dressed and left the college.

- Okay guys, let's - said Misha and held out his hand.

- Come on - Valera answered and shook hands.

- Bye - Vlad answered and also shook hands.

Vlad and Valera went to the bus stop. Of course, Vlad didn't have to go anywhere, it's just that it's so usual for them that they wait for the bus together, and then, when Valera leaves, Vlad goes home.

- Mmmm ... - Valera stretched - That's what I did well in anatomy today.

- Yes. Still, I wouldn't confuse the parties - Vlad joked.

It's not my fault it's upside down! Valera objected.

- Of course, of course - Vlad responded feignedly.

- By the way! Valery exclaimed.

- M?

- Has your mother arrived?

- Nope.

- Maybe then...

Valera did not have time to finish, as Vlad immediately answered.

No, no, no, don't even think about it.

- I didn't even say anything.

- I guessed.

- Well, what did I want to say? - Valera asked feignedly

- Or maybe then we'll have a party or a party or some other synonym for the destruction of the destruction of my apartment.

- I agree! - Valera answered happily

- You're a fool?

- Why are you so boring? You sit at home all the time.

- Lies and slander! - Vlad replied in disagreement

- Yah? Valery asked with a grin.

- Yes. Vlad calmly replied.

- And why else, in addition to buying books, throwing out the garbage and going out for food, you go out into the street,

- And I don't need anything else. And by the way, would you run or something, otherwise there is your bus - Vlad said and nodded in the direction of the bus.

- And exactly! Okay, I ran - Valera said and ran to the bus.

Having reached the house, Vlad went into the apartment and began, as usual, to go about his business, and only sat down to study closer to 10 o'clock in the evening.

- So it turns out that ... - Vlad yawned - In my opinion, science is enough for me. It's time to sleep.

Vlad set the alarm clock and plopped down on the bed.
