I once called my friend and classmate Nigar Hajizade - everyone knows her as a producer Zulfiya Khanbabaeva . Her uncle, whom we knew, picked up the phone. I asked to call Nigar to the phone, to which he replied that she was busy, but would soon be free. Waiting for her to come, we began to talk. After a while, I again wondered if Nigar had not freed herself. He asked me to wait a little longer, and we continued the conversation. A few more minutes passed, and again I asked about my girlfriend.
- “And you leave a phone number, she will call you back,” suggested a voice on the other end of the wire.
- - What are you talking about? She knows my number! - answered and realized that she had not got there. Of course, after such a long conversation, I could not abruptly hang up.
- “Excuse me, I should take my niece early tomorrow morning to Bulbul school, and then to me at the institute,” I said.
- “And I drive my cousin there every day,” Adik said. The next day he came up to me, so we saw each other. Soon we got married, a year later we had Jahad.
