TREASURE HOUSE
Khadija left work early. He went to the market and bought a lot of
household goods. When he got home, he hurriedly changed his
clothes. Ildam rushed to dinner with gestures. He was in a good
mood. Lately, the small shop has made a lot of money and has started to
work. Especially today it received an oversized order. For this reason he
gave permission to all his workers early, and he himself hurried home to
finish all his work and prepare a more familiar meal. From the radio
hanging on the kitchen wall, a song was played in a pleasant tone, and
the woman joined in the familiar places and sang. In high spirits, he set
about setting the table. One by one the homeowners began to visit. First
came his son Siroj. Every time he looked at his late mother with
astonished eyes.
-Change your clothes. Soon your father and brothers will come
too. Then we'll eat, ”he said, keeping his eyes on the table and
estimating the shortcomings. On the threshold, Davron's breath smelled
of perfume. Her appetite was aroused and she swallowed.
"The food is ready. Can I swim, Daddy?" He said with a smile.
-Of course. I'm very open.
The two twins from the kindergarten came out of their father's arms
and clung to Khadija's skirt. After a while, everyone gathered for
dinner. Siroj didn’t like adults talking about work. He wanted her to pay
attention, albeit a little. He looked at his mother and father and said:
-Dad, why don't we have treasures in our house?
Davron did not understand the sudden question :
"What do you mean, son?" "We have everything, it's in our treasury,"
he said, glancing at his wife.
-No, they are not treasures. After all, we don't have the treasures in
Aunt Risolat's house!
Khadija was stunned by her son's words.
"What did I tell you? Didn't I tell you not to go home?"
Siroj chuckled:
"What's the matter, shall I go? Anyway, in our house ..." His lungs
were full and he couldn't speak. He got up and went into his room.
Davron looked at his wife as if to say, "What happened to Siroj?"
Khadija shrugged.
Usually, Khadija forbade her son to go to that house at the head of the
mahalla.
... On one of those cold winter days, a woman and her two children
moved into a deserted and deserted yard for many years. Everyone knew
that he had been betrayed by his parents, that he had betrayed his love
for his parents, that he had wandered around in confusion. At first,
everyone looked at him with pity. began to flee. As Khadija washed the
dishes, she thought of her son's words.
"What did he mean when he said he had a treasure," he whispered to
himself. He imagined a house that was slowly collapsing, unable to
withstand the dust of years.
"Strange," he said, stiffening his neck.
Siroj was one of the best students in the class. He was especially fond
of books. He was repeatedly forced to "bring a book" to both his father
and mother, but his wish was not granted. For this reason, every day he
secretly hurried to Aunt Risalat.
He won first place in the “Literary Scholar” competition held between
schools one day. His innocent heart was filled with joy, and he made his
way out of school to his mother's office.
He opened the door to his mother's room.
"Oh, I won the Literary Scholar contest," he said, his eyes shining with
joy.
The people around the long table glared at him. Siroj blushed as
everyone's attention was focused on him. Khadija, embarrassed by her
son's actions, gestured as if to say, "Get out of the room." "It's always
like that," Siroj thought to himself. Then he left the room as quickly as
he could.
Two days later, as Khadija was returning home with much-needed
work, she saw Siroj among a group of children in front of a familiar
house across the street and stopped her car. Shahd got out of the car and
grabbed his son, who was hiding behind the children.
"I'll stay here, bear," Khadija begged, but he didn't care and put Siroj
in the car seat.
- What did you do that? If he plays, he plays! ”Said the Messenger in a
sad tone.
Khadija's eyebrows twitched suddenly. She looked at the woman in
front of her from head to toe and laughed sarcastically:
"Son, what are you doing in your house?"
Siroj stared at the Message left behind with teary eyes, as if he had lost
his most unique thing. When he went home, he was trembling, feeling
that he could hear Ducky from his mother.
Khadija put her son next to him and said:
"You won't go back to her or to her house!" Did you hear? If you
repeat, I'll tell Dad.
Siroj lowered his head and scratched the ground at the tip of his foot:
"I'll go," he said in a low voice.
"Are you a child?"
He looked at his mother boldly:
"You don't understand anyway. Neither my father nor you have time
for us," he said, raising his voice.
Khadija slapped her son bitterly.
Siroj was upset with his mother for a few days.
The weekend was Saturday. Khadija was sitting at her desk, tired and
moody, nervous. Suddenly, her cell phone rang. The woman,
overwhelmed with thoughts, shuddered.
-Hello. I hear.
After the phone call, the happy voice of her son's teacher, Sister
Sanobar, was heard:
- Congratulations, Khadija. Your son won the first place in the regional
stage of the large-scale competition "Literary Scholar" and was awarded
a diploma. A ticket was issued to the Republic.
Khadija was stunned:
-Really,
Really? ”he said hurriedly.
-Yes, Siroj is one of the most talented students. He especially loves
books.
For some reason the connection was lost.
"A book," he said, relaxing himself.
Rejoicing in his son's success, he immediately returned home.
Inside, her husband greeted her.
"Where is Siroj?" Khadija asked breathlessly.
-Take a piece of paper
"I'm coming now, Daddy," he said, walking out into the street. "Peace?"
he asked, looking anxiously at his wife.
Khadija understood immediately. She returned from the threshold,
went out into the street, and hurried to the house at the beginning of the
street. He met Risalat and his son at the gate. Khadija was about to
speak when Siroj pulled her hand away:
-Come on, bear, I'll show you the treasure of this house.He
involuntarily followed his son. He stepped into the room where Siroj
had entered and froze. In the long hall there were books on the shelves
all over the house, and in the middle of the room a few children were
reading.
Siroj looked at his mother and pointed to them as if to say, "Do you
see?"
"These are the treasures I told you about, bear," he said in a low
whisper.
* * *
He went out of the house in a bad mood. The rainy days of winter
were behind us, and the wonderful freshness of spring reigned
throughout the whole being. The trees swayed and swayed as if they had
melted from a long sleep, and the grass stretched out on the ground like
a green peony, as if they were looking forward to this moment. Shahodat
crossed the corridor where a number of domes had fallen and went out
of the corner onto the main road, refusing to get into the car. He
preferred to walk. The cheerful, playful breeze of spring was blowing
over his face, ruffling his hair, pulling him somewhere from the hem of
his red flowered shirt. He walked the streets of the city in this
way. Feeling a little tired, he sank into a roadside seat. The woman
began to look around. Clouds floated in the clear sky, cars drove
incessantly, people hurried somewhere again, someone was waiting for
someone, so the street was crowded. The apricot tree in front of this tree
was covered with white flowers, reminiscent of elegant and delicate
brides dressed in silk white . Suddenly Shahodat's heart sank.
She remembered the quarrel with her husband in the morning and
sighed ...
"You're not going abroad," said her husband, punching the wall in
disgust.
The testimony was not empty:
"I'm going, what's the matter, shall I go? I'm going with my friend's
hunt."
What is wrong with a woman in a foreign land ?! What do you lack?
- If our girls are grown up, if you find them no more than a
household ... After you become a man, I will go with my female head.
Suddenly, a slap in the face sparkled in Shahodat's eyes, and she burst
into tears. Then he hit himself on the street as if there was no air.
It had been at his friend's house two weeks before. He predicted that
his friend's hunt would go to Dubai to work and that his salary would be
right. The double rings on his hands and the chains around his neck
caught everyone's attention.
Towards the end of the sitting, Shahadat looked at the occasional flash
of the prophecy shining from the light of the light bulb hanging from the
ceiling, and finally asked in faith:
"Won't you take someone with you?"
The woman stared at the Testimony with her hidden eyes. Very gentle
smile:
"If I don't, I'll die," she said cheerfully.
Shahadat's affection for him suddenly faded. At least a month later,
Prophecy handed her daughter over. The testimony also served with
haste.
Especially since Shahodat's heart burned after that. As more and more
bridesmaids knocked on her door every day, she became disillusioned
with the wedding and lost her temper. "If I only work for two years,
that's all," he would say to himself. His wife resists with her fingernails.
She even hid a flight ticket from her husband a week later. It's in his
bag. The woman opened her bag to make sure . He took it in his hand
and put it back carefully. Suddenly the weather changed and a black
cloud covered the sky. Shahodat felt tired as he walked. He tried to cross
the road and go home.
- Come on, let's go to the theater.
- No, I don't want to go down.
- Let's go down, please. "Don't say no," he begged his girlfriend.
- What's your name?
- "THE FATE OF THE LOST".
-Let's go down, let's go.
He now realized that the beautiful building in front of her was a
theater. He stared for a long time. But ... he didn't think of going to the
theater as a building for the rest of his life. Suddenly it started to
rain. Shahodat headed for the theater. Bought a ticket at the box
office. He sat down in his chair and looked around - almost all the seats
were full of spectators. "There are a lot of people who are passionate
about theater, too," he thought.
The curtain rose and the play began. Shahodat was amazed by the
skillful performance of the actors, his body was trembling, his lips were
trembling. The main theme of the play was the depiction of several
Uzbek women as victims of deception, slavery, humiliation and
insults. By the end of the show, Shahodat's eyes were wet with tears. He
felt sorry for the heroes who had faced a tragic fate from within. When
Shahadat came out of the theater, his psyche was clear and his mind was
deep. The pouring rain seemed to wash away the morning gloom. He
took the ticket from his bag and scattered it in small pieces ...
