The rain and the breaking waves soon washed away the red spot where Tchelkache had been struck to the ground; they soon effaced his footprints and those of the lad on the sand, and the lonely beach was left without the slightest trace of the little drama that had been played between these two men. Malva The sea laughed.
"I'm thinking," said Malva. Then after a pause she added: "Your son's a fine fellow." "What's that to you?" cried Vassili, jealously. "Who knows?" He glanced at her suspiciously. "Take care," he said, menacingly. "Don't play the imbecile. I'm a patient man, but I mustn't be crossed." He ground his teeth and clenched his fists.
Then passing between Rusicada and the hilly country of Syria, they travelled by the river Malva through Mauritania as far as the Pillars of Hercules; and crossing the Tyrrhene Sea, landed in Spain, where they continued many years, having greatly increased and multiplied.
And this is why no true Hindu believes in the disembodied souls voluntarily returning to earth, except in the case of bhutas. Jubblepore Leaving Malva and Indore, the quasi-independent country of Holkar, we found ourselves once more on strictly British territory. We were going to Jubblepore by railway.
When he was some distance away, Iakov said: "In our village such a braggart would goon have been put in his place. Here, every one seems afraid of him." Malva looked at Iakov and replied, disdainfully: "You don't know his worth." "There's nothing to know. He's worth five kopeks a hundred."
Serejka appeared from behind a boat. He shook his fist at the couple, and said, threateningly: "So, that's how you go off together. Vassili shall know of this." "Go to the devil, all of you!" cried Malva. And she left them, disappearing among the boats. Iakov stood facing Serejka, and looked him square in the face.
"Who's with you?" he cried, when he could discern the familiar smile on Malva's pretty plump face. "Wait. You'll know him all right," she replied laughing. The rower turned on his seat and, also laughing, looked at Vassili. The watchman frowned. It seemed to him that he knew the fellow. "Pull harder!" commanded Malva.
Be silent, and I'll think, and then I'll talk." He began staring at Iakov, who gave way. Malva and Vassili walked for a few minutes in silence. Malva's eyes shone strangely. Vassili was gloomy and preoccupied. Their feet sank in the sand and they advanced slowly. "Vassili!" "What?" He turned and looked at her. "I made you quarrel with Iakov on purpose.
From behind a heap of barrels came the sound of voices. Iakov turned his steps in that direction. He thought he recognised Malva's voice, but when he arrived at the barrels he recoiled a step and stopped. In the shade, lying on his back, with his arms under his head, was Serejka. Near him were, on one side, Vassili and, on the other, Malva. Iakov thought to himself: "Why is father here.
She is getting old. Tell him that, Iakov, my little Iakov, for the love of God. Mother will soon be an old woman. She's always alone, always at work. In Christ's name, tell him that." And she had wept silently, hiding her face in her apron. Iakov had not pitied her then, but he did now. And his face took on a hard expression before Malva, as if he were about to abuse her.
