It's been a crazy couple of weeks here in Russia and... I am really starting to have this feeling that I need to lock all my doors and windows before going anywhere now or leaving my room as well. At least I made three friends, and a cute guy, an overprotective manager at this hotel who hovers over me every chance he gets, but besides that... even after a few weeks of being here... I can't shake up the feeling that young girl said to me...even the front desk lady.

Who was watching me?

Whoever you are? I'm watching you too
... just letting you know!

I put my diary in my bag as I got up from the small café that Natasha brought me to a few weeks ago to have Coffee and just write.

I printed out my photos before hands with her yesterday, and we went out to dinner as well, she wanted me to go clubbing with her last night...but I declined. Heading toward the library I took a few photos and snapshots in my head to make sure I headed home the right way. It was freezing and I couldn't wait to get into that library.

When I got there, there were a few people coming in and out as I rushed my way in fast. Some were teenagers doing their homework, some were college students doing their homework as well. Along with the staff and people who work there.

I took off my coat and headed upstairs looking for the quietest section here and when I found it... It was a big study hall with books everywhere. A few people were in their study or looking at the books as I carefully walked in and headed to a desk.

As I put all my things down I was in awe looking at the beauty of this study hall... I mean... I was so shocked, that I had to take a photo.

When I pull out my camera about to take a photo someone behind me snaps at me. "Вы не можете сфотографироваться здесь?" [You can't take a photo in here?]

"Ой, прости, я не знал!" [Oh, Sorry, I didn't know!] I said putting my camera down and waving sorry to him as he gave me a mug face and he said something under his breath at me.

"Глупая американка ... чертовски тупая шлюха, разве она не видела знак, идущий внутрь!" [Stupid American... fucking dumb whore, did she not see the sign coming inside!]

"прошу прощения!" [ Excuse me!] I softly growl at him as he flips me off making me about to walk up to him but someone pulls me back, I turn to see who it is and it is Yuri.

"Go sit... I will handle him!" He whispers in my ear as he walks away from me headed to the stranger who was being rude to me. I sat down watching Yuri walk over to him, they talked to each other for a few seconds until Yuri whispered something in his ear making him jump up out of his seat in horror as he gathered all his things running out of the study hall.
