She's wary of me and I can't blame her. I'm becoming more and more wary of the snakes that surround me as well. Here and there, they seem neverending. I've never thought of myself as that offensive a guy, but it seems there's always some nonsense that starts up when I'm around - especially with the female folk. I mean no offense to the fairer sex at all, of course not. But I really want to know what it is in the water that makes them all so... well, unbearable. This one is certainly up to no good, but I feel much more assured that she's not batshit crazy. She nibbles on dandelions and pretends disinterest while waving off my question. I keep my annoyance at bay. If I'm playing games she has a right to play games as well. She plays with words and ignores my question, keeping me wondering not only where she's from, but if there's a reason she has decided to keep this information from me. Is it shame? Is this secret, covert information? Does she just feel like being coy? I can't really tell from her tone. Instead, I'll just have to find satisfaction in making her have to defend herself.
She turns the tables on me, and asks me to answer much of the same questions. She notices my accent - who could possibly NOT notice it? - and points it out to me. I let a genuine, simple smile cross my face. "Aye, I am from far away. Not someone you would know of, I'm sure." I snort a little and cock my head, thinking about the questions she poses. Should we do one question each back and forth? Well...why not. "A fair enough proposal. I am from the Falls, originally from Mother Russia." I watch her nibble the dandelions and don't move, being very passive in my questions. "Now I must ask again where you're from? I hope you know I mean no harm by it." And truly I don't. I'm actually pretty harmless unless you piss me off, and I am not pissed off. Not even close.
