She clearly didn’t come for a small talk and a cup of English tea. “What are you doing here?” I fold my arms across my chest. “What do you think?” he asks sarcastically.

Chapter 10 Nadiya – Enough! – I groan. – I’m coming, I’m coming! My neighbors are, let’s say, peculiar. At the slightest disturbance, they call the police. And the sound of fists crashing down on my door might also trigger a police call. I pull the door towards me and lift my chin. — Fire?
