Summary
Yashka wakes up darkly - the mother has not milked the cow yet, and the shepherd did not drive the herd into the meadows. Eyes stick together, but Yashka overpowers himself, dresses, breakfasts and leaves the house to dig worms near the rig and wake up Volodya, a new friend from Moscow. Drinking water from the well, the guys go to the pool - the most "fish" place on the river. Yashka gives Volodya a fishing rod, pours it into a matchbox of worms and shows the place where the fish is biting.
The first fish in Yashka breaks off the hook, but soon he catches a large bream. Suddenly a large clod of earth, on which Volodya is standing, slides into the river, the boy falls into the water, begins to flounder and choke. Yashka rushes into the pool, dives under Volodya, grabs him by the hand and pulls him to the shore, then raises his friend's legs up, as far as he can, and shakes. From the mouth of Volodya flows water, he groans, and a spasm passes through his body. Soon he comes to, and then Yashka starts to roar, gasping and ashamed of his tears. He cries with joy, with experienced fear, with the fact that everything has ended well, and he saved Volodya. Volodya also begins to cry, looking at the calm water in the pool, the sun and bushes, sprayed with dew.
