Three Kids and a Kettle

First of September

Eldiyar with the asters from our yard, in front of the school.

Eldiyar went to school today. White shirt, black trousers, the red bow for the teacher, a bouquet of asters from our yard because the flower seller on the corner wanted 15 som for a small one, which is a crime.

At the end of the line-up they read the names and he did not hear his own because he was looking at the flag. Bakytgul Jumabekovna called him again, quietly, and he ran. I was so proud and so stupid, I cried again into Dastan's sleeve.
