You know why. The government said the quarantine starts, and all the clubs, cafes and halls must close from tomorrow. Dilshat-aka told me in the shop with the lights half off. The final was supposed to be on the 7th, but we had to move it because of a funeral. Then we moved it to the 21st. Now it is nobody knows when.
The bracket is on the wall. The marker is in the drawer. The copper cup with the dent is in the safe, between the used laptops. The fan, the helicopter, is off.
I do not know what to write. Seven winters. I started this as a joke in a notebook. We will play the final. Not now. When it is over.
Stay at home, wash your hands. Look after your parents. Look after your friends. See you in the back room.

The team captains have a group on the new chat app, Tulpar. So much easier than the paper sheet at the shop. We decided the whole schedule of the next season in one evening: a captain wrote "can we play on Sunday?", 23 people said yes, 2 people said "why are we talking at 3 a.m.".
The paper sheet stays on the counter. Not everyone has a smartphone. Not everyone wants one.

Dilshat-aka raised the hourly price from 4 to 5 som. He told us himself, in the shop, with a cup of tea in his hand. The electricity bill is higher and the computers need new fans. He said "league nights stay at the old price for the teams", and he never explained the math. Some people complained. I thought: for 5 years this man has given us his wall, his marker and his power.

Kündölük wrote that you now need an Attelkom login to comment. OK. If you don't have one, come to the shop and ask at the counter, I will write your message on the wall.

Sorry for the silence. The National Graduation Test is in May and my mother has put my computer on top of the cupboard. Her exact words: "when you pass the test the machine comes down".
League news: the bracket on the wall has not moved. Dilshat-aka says the Lagers asked to play a "summer friendly". I said maybe in July. The Lagers are on the internet all day, they don't need a friendly.
