Dashenka was a very beautiful girl. She could probably be called the most beautiful child I had ever seen.
The little girl was smart and modest, and besides that she was also very talented. It is clear that the spouses always dreamed of having another child, but since they had no more children, they gave all their love to Dasha, who responded to them with gratitude. The girl was engaged in dancing, went to swimming, music and drawing. At ten years of age she was a straight-A student.
At such a young age she was not yet ready to choose what she would do in the future. However, with all the responsibility for the choice of priority areas and once told her mother: “Mommy, I have already tried a lot, and I have already decided. I would really like to spend more time dancing and swimming, and I would be very grateful to you and dad if you sent me more in-depth study of foreign languages.
A few years later, Katerina and Yegor could not rejoice in their daughter’s achievements. The daughter did not need her parents to help her in her studies, so all members of this family tried to spend as much time together as possible.
That day the family went to the river. It was a hot summer day, and Katerina and her husband went for a swim. Their daughter swam just fine, and that is why her parents were completely relaxed about their daughter, Dasha just wanted to show her father the new style that they had learned in class.
Katerina, Egor and Dasha enjoyed their time off and each other’s company. After they had had a great rest, Katerina began packing, and Yegor began folding the umbrella from the sun.
“Dashul, go rinse your feet from the sand!” – shouted the mother to her daughter, who had already had time to put on her shoes.
The girl immediately rushed into the water on the slope, which was poorly visible from the beach.
– What is taking her so long? It’s been more than five minutes! – said Yegor.
– Dasha!” called out the mother to her daughter.
It was their last day together. After that their happy life was over forever. Maybe those who say that God takes away the most worthy among us, so that only the best of the best will be there beside him, are right.
Rescuers found Dasha only at lunch the next day, at a considerable distance from where she had stumbled and fallen into the water. The girl was confused and so she was not helped even by her swimming skills.
Rescuers found Masha the next day, at a great distance from where she had stumbled and awkwardly fell under the water, into a pit. Frightened, the girl drowned, and was not helped by the very new style of swimming.
After what happened, Katerina and Yegor stopped living, they just stopped feeling alive.
And what can you say? After all, it’s a matter of chance. Do you think the accident was caused by the parents’ negligence, or was it just fate?
