Yes, it was certainly interesting how Nina Kallistratovna had entered that flat, swung back her hand which hand had it been? was it the one in which she held the attache-case or was that transferred to the other hand first? and delivered the smack to Madame Chasovnikova. Then there was Olya, darling Olya Golovkina, from whom as from them all he desired nothing.
On a sudden, Olya arrived, her figure darkly silhouetted an instant a tiny insignificant atom against the vastness of the hill and sky as she stood poised on the brink of the ravine; then she clambered down its precipitous side to Agrenev. Alexander Alexandrovitch Agrenev, mining engineer and married man, and Olya Andreevna Golovkina!
She was a school teacher, who, after passing through the eight classes of her college, now resided with her aunt. She was always known as Olya Golovkina, although she bore the ancient Russian surname made famous in the time of Peter the Great by Senator Golovkin.
That night, when he reached home at last, his daughter came in and made him a curtsey, saying: "Goodnight, daddy." Alexander Alexandrovitch caught her in his arms, placed her on his knees his beloved, his only little daughter. "Well, little Asya, what have you been doing?" he asked. "When you went out to Olya Golovkina Mummy and I played tig."
In the pitchblack darkness overhead the wild-geese could be heard rustling their wings as they flew southward, scared by his cigarette the tenth in succession. "Southward, geese, southward!... But you shall go nowhere, slave, useless among the useless!" Then he remembered that slap in the face Nina Kallistratovna had given for her husband nobody would give Olya Golovkina one for him!
