Mari's P.O.V
'I can't believe I'm doing this!' I think as I walk to the checkout counter of the bookstore. I give the books to the cashier to ring up,thankfully he had no comment on my selection of books. I pay and exit the store, silently resenting her for making me buy that stupid book. Since I was in my own world I did not notice the guy until I already bumped into him,dropping my books on the impact.
"Oh my matryoshka I'm-" before I could finish he interrupted me.
"Why do you use Russian nesting dolls like swear word?" he asks. He had a very thick accent,and since he knew what matryoshka were I assumed he was Russian.
"Umm...I actually don't know.." I reply,slightly embarrassed.
"Well,you should watch where you are going next time,Da?" He said,bending over to pick up the books scattered on the sidewalk. As he was reading the cover of the last book he he raised an eyebrow and said "Fifty shades of Grey?" I snatched the books away from the stranger. "I really have to go home now,uhh,thanks for picking up my books for me!" I say as I start to walk away. "You're welcome,Little one,Poka!" He replies. I walk home remembering his beige coloured hair,violet eyes,and his thick accent.....wait did he call me "little one"?! I hate when people joke about my height, especially strangers who I meet on the street!! And his reaction to that stupid porn book,ohh I am so going to kill Mariana when I get home!!!
