The operation goes well, gradually Peter recovers. However, the surgeon prefers to keep a few more days, so that there is Monika at its output. It is better that Peter is not only the first day, he will need help to ensure his daily lives.
At the beginning of the absence of Peter, it snowed. The following weekend, Monika returns and can not find the key to the stable to the place agreed with C.. Astonished, she asked what time against she will again face, hitherto C. was correct and has fulfilled his commitments.
The next day, C. comes to see Monika and says her he had kept the key thinking, with snow, Monika might struggle to come, so he could continue to care for rabbits. Monika thanks sensitive to this concern unexpectedly.
The G., who have now retired and spend most of their time there, take the news of Peter and even go visit him, though, for some time, they fought their cold. On this occasion, they offer him a book. Monika and Peter were astonished.
Peter leaves the hospital shortly before Christmas, but to get Boris they must wait until Peter has recovered. Therefore, for the first time, they are separated for the Christmas. They are sad and a little confused. Meanwhile, Peter and Monika are so relieved to get out of this period, they have midnight supper on Christmas, head to head, with a "picnic" dignity improvised.
At his grandparents, Boris looking forward, especially since he knows they will give him his gifts for the new year. When they join him, they are happy to meet after the end of this eventful year. The parent of Peter are happy to see him they are looking better, although he lost a lot of weight.
Another year begins, they expect better. Peter toured the fields, not all have been planted, the bad weather with snow returned before being C. could finish. Anyway, the crop looks pretty good. Hope them return, they begin to make plans. Boris takes the way to school after a long absence. Life finds a normal course.
T. often comes to see Peter, they discuss their projects, their problems ... So they finally decide to make sets of cultures, sharing investments and profits. Peter is happy with this arrangement, which will reduce his workload.
That year, the winter is long and rigorous, it is true that recent years have been pretty hot and dry. Finally, spring returns with sunny days. While greening hedges to birdsong, T. is active in the fields that have not been planted before winter.
Since the beginning of the year, Monika knows, once again, a decrease in activity. Once again, a project that was to occupy full-time, is put on hold. They were on the verge of finally catching up, and now it starts to dig !
A bit later, all projects are blocked. This time, she has no job and nothing to ... Now, Monika cannot ensure in timely payment of contributions called social, especially as they continue to grow. This time it is a disaster !
At the end of spring, Monika decides to cease operations. Death in the soul, she takes the necessary steps. She had so many projects ! She was so invested in this activity ! However, the final contract was inexplicably cut short, and without another several weeks .... The future becomes increasingly uncertain.
Like many others at that time, she enrolled at the ANPE to find employment, with most of these times, but so rare. Monika sends many applications for both positions as wall as lower level. Without success. She neglects no tracks, even those "odd jobs". The days go by ... and nothing !
Unable to meet more a new time the deadlines bank loan, they use their insurance is subject, since Peter is still off work due to illness. Every year, they receive statements on this loan are not really readable, and even less intelligible.
The summer continues with crops need to ensure, in a heavy heat and stormy. Peter and Monika enter into an agreement with the bank litigation services. However, they do everything they can to advance the work that can be done without investment. At times, they are so tired of fighting against all odds ! In these moments, they want to give up ...
Reported that their harvest just enough to pay the necessary investment to the next, as well as payroll settlement of agricultural activity still high. It is depressing to work so hard for so little results. Moreover, most importantly, start to move things tidy, clean, refurbish, find solutions to all against time as varied.
For many months, Peter and Monika Boris restrict their spending to devote the bulk of their income to the repayment of amounts due to the bank as well as social organizations or taxes. Until then, they have always paid their suppliers, unless they have found irregularities, or that they were not satisfied with reasons.
Suddenly, a phone call to Monika brings hope. Asked to ensure the conduct of an exciting new project and correctly compensated. With joy and relief, Monika accepts. Therefore, it is with great enthusiasm that she creates a new activity.
This procedure leads to a lot of travelling, both in Paris and in the south, revise it with pleasure. They find a little optimism. Maybe, this time, they will finally be able to overcome the regulations late ! May be able to renegotiate with the bank !
September, with the first mists, comes back. Boris enters sixth which, while being an important event in his life, much heavier his schoolbag. While not changing school, Boris is destabilized by the pace of progress taking place in different rooms.
However, especially after what happened last year, he was very difficult to carry his huge binder between the different courses. One day, Monika finds that the binder Boris weighs a little more than eleven pounds while his son is more than twenty six !
Chugging, autumn advances. They are less frequently D., and S. and E. which are substantially more. It is true they do not have the means to receive as well as in the past ! In addition, everyone has their own life with his worries as his obligations. Peter’s cousins,who had helped to move, are also very busy, they do not see more than occasionally.
The G. are more distant, it seems they bear them not to have sold their part of the field they coveted. Bd has regularly maintained the garden of G.. Peter and Monika are occasionally the C.. Their son went to settle with his family on a farm, he rented a few tens of kilometres. Rr comes from time to time to say hello. Peter sells his hay he picks up with his wife.
During this fall, Monika found a job in a new senior consultancy. Now she made the trip to the capital every day. This is consistent transit times, but with a subscription, the cost is less than the hotel during the week. On weekends, she helps Peter, take care of their house still under construction.
Boris has not adapted to the new school rhythm, and especially the weight of the binder he must hang out all day. It is true that, last year, he is slowly recovering from his surgery. To solve the problems of Boris, his parents take steps to make him follow the teaching of CNED.
Another year is ending, and one that begins does not seem to bring new perspectives. With the beginning of January, Boris began his new life. Monika prepares to work by himself his lessons, and to research in other books. She helps him to organize, she explains him the lessons he does not understand.
Shortly thereafter, the firm that had hired closes. This experience will not last long ! Fortunately, Monika had kept its activity, as well as contracts. She thus continues her travels, which will sometimes make her in the south. On these occasions, she visits her mother was hospitalized for serious health problems for several months.
For his part, Peter started a new campaign for which he organized with T.. Nevertheless, over the days, he realizes that T. is less reliable as it seemed, and he does not always respect their agreements. Moreover, little by little, Peter notes that tools, objects mysteriously disappear, sometimes they come back damaged or permanently.
When winter comes to an end, wearied by a succession of facts more or less annoying, Peter demands T. explanations. He recognizes that sometimes ... apologize because it is not really his fault ... promises .... . However, Peter does not trust. This will be the end of their agreement.
During the winter, Peter resumed work in the house, to consolidate the already heavy work and, perhaps, prepare development attics they hope to carry out ... later. His health, even though doing his best to carry out his tasks, gives them a lot of trouble. They have the feeling of walking on a tightrope over the abyss.
At that time, Boris wants to be like his father, taking up farming, where they will age. Given the state of health of his father, it seems more reasonable to them to organize to prepare his succession. After all, they could not to complete their project, they could at least try to help their son to build his own !
During the following months, the mother of Peter will help Boris to acquire a portion of their land. The notary is negotiating meaning with the bank, which he will donate the amount they have agreed upon. Peter and Monika provide payments to the bank whenever they can.
However, when Peter and Monika are records, they do not always see appear or they do not understand how they are affected. They ask their accountant to audit, after which, they said that everything is normal !
Peter and Monika monitor their accounts closely to better manage their cash. Certainly, they have some debts, but once again, with a little time, they will come to end. Without health problems, it would already be done !
Probably anyone can think they show a very naive honesty ! They do not like having debts, this is why for months, they are fighting to clear their, and they are fighting to get out of this difficult situation.
This is why Monika doing her best to regulate the amounts due under the payroll of its activity. She also attempts to alleviate them. However, despite all her efforts, again she has no contract in late winter. She ceases her activity and seeking employment. Without success.
For some time they understand less how the various schedules are developed. On the amounts of interest ...! How the bank calculates the mystery is the thickest. They are not financial undoubtedly are there good reasons ... unfortunately, they understand a little later, but at their expense.
Despite all their efforts, for many months, they despair of overcoming the delay in repayment of loan maturities. They find that interest grow exponentially, so fast, reimbursements are not enough to cover even more ! As the main bank ... But soon declare the forfeiture of the term.
At the beginning of the summer, they combine old who made the soul, Peter uses Rr to ensure the harvest, of course, they will pay at the current rate. For several days, they work together in the fields, and Rr lunch with them, which allows them to know him better. Also interested in them, the difficulties they encounter.
He speaks also of T., son of C., Bd, of G. ... Many of the locals he knows. Peter and Monika then have a more complete view of the context in which they are entered, there almost four years now. They had better understand certain attitudes, such as comments or silences ....
