The world blurred before my eyes. — What do you mean?.. — the words got stuck in my throat. He carefully turned the soap in his hands, showing the small print on the back of the packaging. — Look. Black on white: “Pesticide treatment.” No wonder you feel sick. I sank to the edge of…
He laughed, thinking it was a joke, but seeing my serious face, he said no. Finally, I told him what was going on at home. Moments later, he went into the bathroom and came back pale as a wall, trembling, holding a piece of soap. — Who gave you this?! — his voice trembled. —…
With each passing day, I felt worse: weakness, dry skin, sleepless nights… Mom remained silent. She was always silent, which was strange – we used to share everything with each other.
