“Dad, I'm really not sure if anything will come of this.” My father hands me a coat. I'm slipping. Suddenly he intercepts his hand, pulls up his sleeve.

- A woman should not have bruises. And there shouldn't be a scratch on my daughter.
- Dad, let's not get off topic. You should at least look at it.
- It's your money. And you can manage them yourself.
- Still, I'll be calmer if you go with me...
