Matvey did not let anyone into his apartment, but the investigator persuaded him and entered the house of an independent boy.

Everyone in the neighborhood knew that Matvey-- stand-alone. However, recently, neighbors began to notice that he was acting too strange. What happened to the 12-year-old and who offered him his help, you will learn later in the article.



Matvey used to live with his mother and grandmother in the village. When her health began to deteriorate, the family decided to move to the city, closer to hospitals. The boy liked the village and had many friends there. However, he loved his mother and grandmother so much that he was willing to sacrifice even his skateboard for their good.

Fortunately, this was not necessary, so Matvey continued to dissect his four-wheeled friend through the streets of the city. The guy quickly joined the yard collective and met all the locals. However, without the rustic worries of his free time became much more. And he often cleaned the yard and helped the elderly neighbors with shopping.



One of them stuck to the boy with all his heart. She told everyone what a responsible and independent boy she was living in. Larisa Petrovna loved to watch Matvey skate. She didn’t have any grandchildren, so it made her happier.

At some point, the woman began to notice that the boy was walking until late in the evening. All the children had already been called home, and he was alone skateboarding in the bright lights, completely slow to dinner. Larisa Petrovna’s heart felt that something was wrong. But she didn't want to get involved. She was afraid she would make it worse if her fears were confirmed.

She decided that her son, who works as an investigator in the police station, would help her. She explained the whole situation to him, did not miss the opportunity to mention what a nice boy Matvey is after all. And since he's acting like that, it's not clean.

Larisa Petrovna’s son agreed to visit the boy’s family and find out if everything is good. He did this early in the morning to catch everyone at home. 12-year-old Matvey opened the door. Dimitri introduced himself and asked if he could come in. The investigator said he wanted to talk to the boy's mother. However, this did not convince the child to let a stranger into the apartment.



Then Dmitry told Matthew the truth. When the boy learned that Larisa Petrovna had sent the investigator, he relented and let the man in. Already on the threshold, he was stunned: there was practically no furniture in the apartment, and the child’s sleeping place, apparently, was an old inflatable mattress lying on the floor.

There was no grandmother or mother at home. This greatly embarrassed the investigator, and he began to ask the child what was going on. It turned out that his grandmother needed urgent medical attention. Moreover, it was necessary to go to another city, and the money for a trip and treatment from Matvey’s mother simply was not.



She sold everything she could and went with her elderly mother to the capital. Matvey had to leave himself, because it was even more expensive to take him with you, and no one canceled the school. In short, the woman left heartily. But she knew perfectly well that Matvey was an independent boy. His mother gave him a list of instructions and instructions that he followed.

According to forecasts, Matvey’s relatives were supposed to return in 2 weeks. When Larisa Petrovna found out about everything, she immediately went to her little neighbor and asked him to contact her mother by phone. The compassionate woman offered her help: “Lyudochka, don’t worry, I have a separate room for Matvey. It is not good for a child to live so long alone, the two are more fun!

This story touched not only Larisa Petrovna, but also her son Dmitry. He was convinced that the boy was living in poor conditions. It is unlikely that his family will be able to get back on their feet very quickly, given the problems she has faced.



So the man decided to give Matvey a gift. He bought a bed for the boy and special equipment for skateboarding. When his mother and grandmother returned home, they burst into tears. Larisa Petrovna helped Matvey prepare a festive dinner and set the table. And Dmitry, meanwhile, coped with minor breakdowns that he noticed in the apartment.

He met Matvey’s mother for the first time, and he really liked her. By the way, Matvey during this time became almost native to him. It seems that this story definitely has a happy ending. And most importantly, Grandma is fine now!

Life Wisdom: What does this story teach us? This story teaches us how important it is to lend a helping hand to those in need. They say there are no other people's children. And Larisa Petrovna’s actions only prove this.



And we also want to note the strength of circumstances, without which this story was not. Dmitry responded to the request of his mother and eventually found close people with whom he is unlikely to ever part. And it's beautiful!
