The bombs frightened my maid away.

She went to the country.

Why are you laughing?

Do I look funny?

Some sailors presented me

with this shirt.

You're going to live with me now.

I get good rations

and we'll share them.

I'll get rations too now.

- You're working at a factory?

- Yes.

Isn't it hard?

And what about your studies?

Don't worry, you and I

will go on studying.

Not now, Ksenia Nikolayevna.

Later perhaps.

Later.

Home.

Thank you.

I took a course in nursing...

without telling anyone.

And what about the stage?

Later. We'll do everything later.

How can I let you go, darling?

A notice ...

Seryozha?

Father.

Please go away.

Ask anything but that of me.

Don't come here anymore -

not even to the door.

You let me come

when I had two legs.

Can't you see?

I never loved anyone but him!

That's a lie!

Didn't you love me...

when he was alive?

And if he were alive now ...

I'd come to see you anyway.

There's no one I need but you!

Leave me.

I'll keep my door locked.

And I'll keep knocking

until you open it.

Is that my daddy?

No, that's uncle Sergei.

Did you put him out?

He loves you.

I know.

What a wonderful day.

Don't hold it against me.

I don't.

Has Galya's family come back?

Don't go there, Sergei!

There's no Galya!

She was killed!..

Why do people fly like birds?

When you stand on the top of a hill

it seems as if ...

all you had to do was lift your arms

and fly away.

Where are you, Dimitri?

Perhaps roaming the earth ...

in search of minerals.

True, we live only once.

How clearly I see it now!

Where are you, Dimitri?

This is your daddy!

Do people grow fast?

Some do.

Uncle Sergei did.

Sergei's come!

Good morning.

Good morning.
