V tikhom gorodke u moria - Metlitskaia Mariia

Ivan Gromov always dreamed of living by the warm sea. It seemed to him that under the hot sun his heart, frozen from adversity and loss, was thawing. And here he is in the southern town, slowly living from one holiday season to another. And most importantly - there is a sea, boundless, blue. One day he will come ashore with a little girl Asay, the daughter of his apartment mistress. He'll tell Asa about the scarlet sails, the Assol who waited for her Gray. He will give her a dream, not knowing that the time will come, and this unloved, unneeded girl will also give him a gift, the most important and valuable in his life.
