Three packs of cigarettes were lying there on the pavement. I went down from Shubentsov’s office doorstep, picked them up and pocketed them. Later, in a bar, when I opened the first pack, I found – to my – the twenty cigarettes were there.
I’m still at the bar, telephone in one and the cigarettes in the other. I’m dialing Shubentsov, who told me to call him the moment I felt the urge to . I feel it, feel it even than I felt Shubentsov’s healing(恢复) energy. That’s saying something, since Shubentsov is known around the world for smokers of their nasty habit, using a method. He sent his healing energy from his fingertips, he tells me – something he picked up from another man in Russia. "I help you for free," he told me in his muddy accent. "Just call me ."
I went to see Shubentsov. I think it’s time to because I’m getting old, and I can’t keep doing this to myself. But here’s the real problem. I should quit, but like a lot of you with the same habit, I really don’t want to.

Smoking has started conversations, driven away annoying people. Smoking helps me celebrate victories, get over losses, and comfort the comfortless. It also chases away the mosquitoes.
I will . Soon. My body and my mind are demanding that daily.
I claim to smoke for pleasure, but I realize that slowly I’m losing control of this close, special friend. I that. I realize it’s not just a "habit". I’m .
So here I am, attempting to again, at Shubentsov’s place. I’ve tried all the other quitting techniques . Anytime the urges to smoke , he said, just call him immediately and he’ll help. The funny thing is that I realize I’m not phoning him to stop me from lighting up. I’m phoning him so I can. If I call, I’ll have done my part. Then I can smoke this cigarette. Besides, I know that at 9.30 on a Friday night, I’ll get the answering machine. I do. "The office is open from ten to four. Call me back then. This machine does not take messages."
I put the phone down and I can honestly say I’m . You see, it’s not Shubentsov’s fault or anyone else’s fault that I’m still . It’s mine.
Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to smoke this cigarette. Whether I’ll really enjoy it, though, is another story.
