Every morning, on his way to work, Farhod walked past a young woman playing the violin at the entrance to the metro. Most people hurried past without looking. Some threw a few coins into her open violin case. Farhod was always late, so he never stopped.
Har kuni ertalab ishga ketayotib Farhod metro kirish joyida skripka chalayotgan yosh ayolning yonidan o‘tardi. Ko‘pchilik qaramay shoshib o‘tib ketardi. Ba’zilar uning ochiq skripka qutisiga bir nechta tanga tashlardi. Farhod doim kechikardi, shuning uchun hech qachon to‘xtamasdi.
One Monday, she wasn’t there. Farhod was surprised to notice how quiet the station felt. On Tuesday and Wednesday, she still wasn’t there. He realised that her music had been part of his morning, and he missed it.
Bir dushanba kuni u yo‘q edi. Farhod bekat qanchalik jim tuyulganini payqab hayron bo‘ldi. Seshanba va chorshanba kunlari ham u yo‘q edi. U ayolning musiqasi tongining bir qismi bo‘lganini va uni sog‘inayotganini angladi.
On Thursday, she was back. This time, Farhod stopped and listened to a whole song. When she finished, he asked, “Where were you?” She explained that she was a student at the music academy and she had exams. She played in the metro to pay for her studies.
Payshanba kuni u qaytib keldi. Bu safar Farhod to‘xtab, butun bir qo‘shiqni tingladi. U tugatgach, Farhod: “Qayerda edingiz?” deb so‘radi. U musiqa akademiyasida talaba ekanini va imtihonlari bo‘lganini tushuntirdi. U o‘qishi uchun pul to‘lash maqsadida metroda chalardi.
Farhod told her that her music made his mornings better. She smiled and said, “Thank you. Most people don’t even look at me.” Now Farhod leaves home ten minutes earlier. He stops every day to listen to one song before work.
Farhod uning musiqasi tonglarini yaxshiroq qilishini aytdi. U jilmayib: “Rahmat. Ko‘pchilik menga qaramaydi ham”, dedi. Endi Farhod uydan o‘n daqiqa erta chiqadi. U har kuni ishdan oldin bitta qo‘shiqni tinglash uchun to‘xtaydi.
Tushundingizmi?
Javob topa olmasangiz, «O‘qish» bosqichiga qaytib, matnga qarang — bu ham mashq.
