She's no threat to us it seems. But she's very interesting and eccentric for one of her kind, and there's no risk.
"I would like to stay a while if I can?" I ask. She stops dancing.
"Oh why yes of course! The more company I have the better. I almost never get visitors. Would you like tea, or coffee? Maybe some biscuits!" she says running over to stop the music. I sit down and Minnie sits next to me.
"No thank you." I say and she pauses again.
"Oh I see. Ok then." she says and moves to stand by the record player.
"How long have you lived here?"
"I don't know. I don't count the days. A long time though that's for certain. But I always have ways to entertain myself so there's no need for me to go out."
"I see." I say. There's a long pause.
"I'm not telling you any personal information, or my past if that's what you're staying for Holland." Ms.Iliya says. That's really creepy actually how she can guess what I'm thinking without even reading my mind.
"Okay then." I say and stand. Minnie stands also.
"Before you go. Just one quick dance?" Ms. Iliya asks putting the music back on.
"I don't really like to. I'm not so good." I say.
"Oh that's no problem." she says and Minnie reaches up and takes off my crown.
