Summary:

Svetlana Sergeevna Vetrova does not want to be in love.

She is eight years old, and the rest of the world tells her that it is a foregone conclusion. Not something she gets a say in. Svetlana will fall in love, she will find a handsome boy to make her husband, and she will give him children.

The suggestion makes her so angry that she stomps her foot and bars any mention of love from their house. Her papa agrees. He can never say no to her.
