I sighed and left my house. I got in my car and drove to Will's house. I wonder what's so important about this.

Sophie's POV

A few minutes later, I heard, "Igor. You came" "Yes, I did. Will texted me and said I have to come, he needs to talk to me about something" I heard another voice. "Oh, alright. Well, let's go find him" "Ok" I looked out from the kitchen and saw two people talking. I walked up to them. "Hey Chloe" I said. "Hello Sophie, this is my friend" "Hi, I'm Igor" Igor said. "I'm Sophie and that's quite the name" I said. "Thank you, you've probably never heard that name before" "No, I haven't" Igor laughed. "Knew it. My name's a Russian name" "It's Russian?" "Yea. I'm from Russia, so it's a Russian name" "Oh, ok" "So does that mean your last name is Russian as well?" Chloe asked. "Yes,.... my last name's Gordienko" "Gordienyenko?" I asked. "Yes, most people think it has a Y in it, but it doesn't. It's G-o-r-d-i-e-n-k-o" Igor said. "Oh, so... no Y?" "No" "Oh,..... well,..... wait, whose last name has a K in it?" I asked. "Most Russians do" I have so many questions right now.. like, "Why does his name sound like Eagle?" or "Can he speak Russian if he is a Russian?", so many questions. "I never know Russian have a K in their names" Chloe said. "You know now" Igor retorted. "Anyway, I had never knew that either, and now that I know and I've been curious since I just met you, I just want to ask some questions" I said. "And I will hopefully have answers" Igor said. "Ok. Well, the first one is technically a statement, but I can rephrase it as a question: Why does your name sound like Eagle?" "Oh,....... I don't know why, but I can tell you that Igor is a common name in Russia, so.. my parents decided to call me that. Before I moved here, I didn't really know that Igor was kinda close to Eagle, but it's too late now, I can't change it. They actually used to call me Eagle and other nicknames that I don't want to tell you, but... yea, that's about it" Igor said. "Wow, that was an interesting backstory, if you could've called it that" Chloe said. Igor giggled. "Thanks. I would tell you guys more about my backstory, but I don't wanna get you two confused" He said. "What's confusing about a backstory?" I asked. "Nothing, let's just say..... mine is.... different and unique than others" What does he mean by that? ....... eh, I don't wanna figure it out now. "Anyway, here's my second one: Can you speak Russian?" I asked. "Yes, I can. Not very well tho. Fluently in the past, but now... not well. I can only translate Russian fluently" Igor said. "Oh" "But I actually do know this: Здравствуйте, меня зовут Игорь. Вы двое, должно быть, Хлоя и Софи. Приятно познакомиться с вами двумя" He added. "Whoa. What's that mean?" I asked. "Hello, my name is Igor. You must be Chloe and Sophie. Nice to meet you two" Igor translated for us. "Oh..anyway, that's so cool" I said. "K. Now, are we gonna find Will or what?" Chloe asked. "Chloe's right. We should find him" I said. "Yea" Igor said.
