My dad worked as a driver, and then the company closed. That's when his adventures began: day after day, he read newspaper ads, made ice cream, cut clouds, commanded hot air balloons, even managed to work for a king - he almost flew to Africa... But deep down, dad, mom, and I understood: this is all not for him, dad's calling was different.
'Mom was categorically against dad's idea of working as an artist. He was completely bad at drawing people. One of my mom's portraits even had to be thrown away, she was so upset when she saw the drawing. I voted for a job as a dog translator. If dad had been hired for this job, we could finally have a dog at home! I would walk her in the mornings, and dad - in the evenings. We would also go to the park together, dress the dog up as a reindeer for New Year and teach her to pull a sled... But no one listened to me! And dad was already dialing the number listed in the ad for an inner toad.'
