Welcome back, everybody. After taking ages to pick up this story again I'm back; with partly rewritten chapters and some new ideas. Hope you'll like it.
PROLOGUE
September
The cab stopped some hundred meters away from a huge building, which was shielded by a massive wall. It was already dark outside, so I could just see its outlines in the dim light of some lanterns, but in spite of that the sight was impressing. The ivy-overgrown brick facade looked romantic and the towers suggested more the impression of a castle than of my future university.
Putting myself together, I finally opened the cab's door and got off, while the driver went to the trunk in order to pass me my luggage. "Thank you! How much is it?" I asked. "That makes 660 ruble, Sir." I passed the man 700 RUB, thanked him again and turned around to face the massive iron gates, which protected the property from unpleasant visitors. After the cab was gone I looked around helplessly, not knowing what to do next, when I surprisingly discovered an intercom on the left pillar. I stepped forward, pressed the call button and waited fidgety for a response. Some seconds later a deep and brisk woman's voice said, "Moscow Business School, how can I help you?" "Um, good evening. My name is Rei Kon. I'm a new student and… ", I started, but was instantly interrupted with an "Oh, yes, Mr. Kon. We awaited your arrival. I'll open the gate for you. Please, come in!"
Without any noise the gateway started to open, and I took a deep breath and did the first step into my new life.
