Both parents fell in love and thought of a happy life for the entire family. Mr. Volodya still proudly recalls the days of his work at Soviet “Banvor” newspaper and even at “Pioneer Call” magazine. At the times the work of a correspondent at those editorials was prestigious and fulfilling. Today they live in a decaying house with two of their four kids on miserable pension and allowances.

A broken bed is the only place where Mrs. Lyuba spends her days a whole year round without leaving the room.
