Pictures of her husband and her backstabbing friend completely naked, posing in all the styles they could master. Some even had them stick their tongues out and middle finger pointing at the camera. She had deleted them but she clearly doesn't know how to get rid of evidence. Ruby was pissed. She had always known her husband was cheating but since she never had any evidence, she was always dismissed. When she looked at the date on the pictures, her heart broke. She remembered the day so well, it was the day he lied about getting weed, seems like the weed was Beryl. She locked the door and threw the keys behind the sofa. She asked her friend about it and obviously, she lied. She showed her the pictures and suddenly, Beryl couldn't speak anymore, she had gone dumb! Ruby beat the living daylights out of her. Neighbours got wind of what was going on due to the screams and called Beryl's mom to go save her daughter. Her mom arrived and pleaded with Ruby to open the door but she didn't. She beat some sense into the girl some more before agreeing to open the door since plans to break it down.

At the moment of thunder, Sławek looked at the yard and the ladder moved a few steps and when he put his foot on the next rung, it lost its stability even more. Domejczuk began to slide down with her. Skalski ran to hold her down, but it was too late. Caused by gravity, with no support in the slippery straw base, she fell with Sławek down - straight onto Konrad, who was supporting her. They both fell on the threshing floor, on the pile of straw from the untied packages. Luckily the landing was soft, but they both felt the impact. Skalski groaned and shook his head. Then he saw Slawek's face above him, from a very close distance. His eyes were like two blue skies on the most beautiful summer day. Bright and deep, shadowless clouds, as if they wanted to engulf it with their color. They blinked in surprise, as if surprised that they could be so close to someone else. Konrad felt the heat of his friend's body on him, warmed by effort and heat. He could feel his maddened heart beating, working hard to support his tired body. He could see his deeply flushed face, which was so close it was almost touching his. And he felt the pressure of something swelling growing on his hip...
