The frontline between Mykolaiv and Kherson is more than 250 kilometers far. &#x201C;It was the first time here,&#x201D; Stepevoy answers when asked about the hit. A scar on his hand still reminds him on the incident. His eyes are watching in the direction of the house. Not at it, more like they are searching the sky behind it:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-stackable-blockquote is-style-default stk-block-blockquote stk-block stk-f92b772\" data-block-id=\"f92b772\"><style>.stk-f92b772{max-width:60% !important;min-width:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;margin-left:auto !important}@media screen and (max-width:1023px){.stk-f92b772{max-width:90% !important;min-width:auto !important}}@media screen and (max-width:767px){.stk-f92b772{max-width:95% !important;min-width:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;margin-left:auto !important}}<\/style><div class=\"has-text-align-left stk-block-blockquote__content stk-container stk-f92b772-container stk-hover-parent\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon stk-block-icon stk-block stk-b23e038\" data-block-id=\"b23e038\"><style>.stk-b23e038 .stk--svg-wrapper .stk--inner-svg svg:last-child,.stk-b23e038 .stk--svg-wrapper .stk--inner-svg svg:last-child :is(g,path,rect,polygon,ellipse){fill:#8ed1fc !important}<\/style><span class=\"stk--svg-wrapper\"><div class=\"stk--inner-svg\"><svg style=\"height:0;width:0\"><defs><lineargradient id=\"linear-gradient-b23e038\" x1=\"0\" x2=\"100%\" y1=\"0\" y2=\"0\"><stop offset=\"0%\" style=\"stop-opacity:1;stop-color:var(--linear-gradient-b-23-e-038-color-1)\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"100%\" style=\"stop-opacity:1;stop-color:var(--linear-gradient-b-23-e-038-color-2)\"><\/stop><\/lineargradient><\/defs><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 50 50\" aria-hidden=\"true\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"><path d=\"M19.8 9.3C10.5 11.8 4.6 17 2.1 24.8c2.3-3.6 5.6-5.4 9.9-5.4 3.3 0 6 1.1 8.3 3.3 2.2 2.2 3.4 5 3.4 8.3 0 3.2-1.1 5.8-3.3 8-2.2 2.2-5.1 3.2-8.7 3.2-3.7 0-6.5-1.2-8.6-3.5C1 36.3 0 33.1 0 29 0 18.3 6.5 11.2 19.6 7.9l.2 1.4zm26.4 0C36.9 11.9 31 17 28.5 24.8c2.2-3.6 5.5-5.4 9.8-5.4 3.2 0 6 1.1 8.3 3.2 2.3 2.2 3.4 4.9 3.4 8.3 0 3.1-1.1 5.8-3.3 7.9-2.2 2.2-5.1 3.3-8.6 3.3-3.7 0-6.6-1.1-8.6-3.4-2.1-2.3-3.1-5.5-3.1-9.7 0-10.7 6.6-17.8 19.7-21.1l.1 1.4z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-063361d\" data-block-id=\"063361d\"><style>.stk-063361d .stk-block-text__text{font-size:20px !important;font-style:normal !important}@media screen and (max-width:1023px){.stk-063361d .stk-block-text__text{font-size:20px !important}}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\"><strong>I really hope that it was the last time.

Just one day before the interview they heard another explosion nearby, Stepevoy says afraid of losing the efforts they have already made with renovating the house. It was the first night they had spent at home. &#x201C;All we want is just to koeep on living and not being afraid of anything,&#x201D; he says frustrated. Now he even needs to worry about the heavy summer rains due to not yet repaired leaks in the ceiling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block stk-4ac110f\" id=\"erste-begegnungen-in-bukarest\" data-block-id=\"4ac110f\"><style>.stk-4ac110f{max-width:90% !important;min-width:auto !important;margin-right:auto !important;margin-left:auto !important}<\/style><h2 class=\"stk-block-heading__text has-text-align-center\">Uncertain future<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>But even if the house will be reconstructed and the destroyed furniture replaced, the worries will not vanish. Stepevoy&#x2019;s nine greenhouses are destroyed. Selling tomatoes and cucumbers was the main income of the family. &#x201C;The seeds and the equipment was inside,&#x201D; he lists the damage there. Additionally, the metal needed to rebuild the greenhouses became an expensive good in the war-torn country. But by January, when the season for radish begins, he should be able to work again. &#x201C;I don&#x2019;t know when or how I will do it,&#x201D; he shrugs his shoulders and gives a desperate smile. And even then he does not have a car anymore &#x2013; he sold it to buy the material to repair the house. They help provided by the municipality was not enough, Stepevoy says. From the government he did not see any money until August.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/on-the-ground.info\/ukraine\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"250599\">Read more of our coverage from Ukraine<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#x2019;s a lot of stress, the 40-year-old admits. When looking out of the windows of his house, he still sees the destruction around; only the new gas pipeline shines in new yellow. &#x201C;But I try to make piece with it. You cannot always experience the huge emotions, it will destroy you,&#x201D; he says. So, he hopes that the neighbors will also be able to rebuild their homes and the district will come back to normal life at one point. &#x201C;I don&#x2019;t wish anyone to experience something like this, to find a shrapnel as long a tie in the crib,&#x201D; he closes the interview.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"modern-footnotes-list \"><li><span>1<\/span><div>When experiencing a traumatic situation, it can happen that the shock moment cannot be remembered.
