Голова, да не та
Наталья Евдокимова
Костя шёл в школу, и по пути у него разболелась голова. Так сильно, что он даже шёл с трудом.
‒ У меня голова болит, - сказал он учительнице. ‒ Отпустите меня домой поскорее.
А учительница говорит:
‒ Вчера у тебя болела голова, позавчера у тебя болела голова. И сегодня болит?
Костя задумался. Вчера ему не хотелось идти в школу, и он сказал, что болит голова. Позавчера хотелось идти в школу, но и хотелось сказать, что болит голова. А никакая голова у него не болела. Но сейчас-то болит! И Костя сказал:
‒ То была другая голова.
А учительница сказала:
‒ Приходи завтра с третьей.
И Костя кивнул.
ПЕРЕВОД ТЕКСТА
A Different Head
Kostya was on his way to school when suddenly, his head started hurting. The headache was so strong that he could barely continue to walk.
- I have a headache, - Kostya complained to the teacher. – Can I leave early, please?
But the teacher responded:
- Yesterday, you had a headache. The day before yesterday, you also had a headache. Are you meaning to tell me that you have one today too?
Kostya thought about it for a while. Yesterday, he did not want to go to school, so he said that his head hurt. The day before yesterday he wanted to go to school, but he wanted to make an excuse for his headache more. As a matter of fact, his head did not hurt back then. But it does now! So Kostya said:
- That was a different head.
And the teacher told him:
- Come back tomorrow with a third one.
The only thing left for Kostya to do was to nod in response.
