And she managed this childcare facility with difficult children, as they used to call them, difficult children who went through the war, who saw their parents killed, and this is how they met. Because these difficult children, they, well, sometimes behave differently. They could steal something, do something bad. There were many, many children in the orphanage.

He would never have believed it because he worked in the police after the war. He was a colonel. He worked in criminal investigation all his life. So he fought with bandits all his life after the Second World War. But also,

I believe he fought for justice all his life, and we all lived in one apartment. And even after his death, I lived with both of my grandmothers and my parents, two grandmothers, who both lost their husbands. Both of them died. Well, it was an ordinary family, an ordinary family that lived like everyone lived back then in the Soviet Union and even after the Soviets in the 90s.
