BlairI was lying on my bed staring at the ceiling with my cell phone on my stomach, waiting for Dimitri to call or text me to let me know that he had already landed. Once again that need that dominated us at the beginning of our relationship had taken over me. I needed to talk to him all the time, and when I couldn't, I felt empty. It had taken me a while to finally pluck up the courage and take the first step to recover our relationship, but I could no longer deny it, I did not want to live away from him, and if for that to work I had to move to Russia, I would move to Russia!By my count he must have landed at least an hour ago, could the flight have been delayed somehow?I closed my eyes, determined to get some sleep. Finally my life was settling down, my father was recovering at home, my mother was back to normal, even deciding to teach me how to cook so that I wouldn't suffer so much in "emergency situations". I didn't quite understand the reason for her sudden interest in thi
Blair" Excuse me, do you speak English? " I tried the third attendant, who just looked at me and shook her head in the negative. They were understanding me, I knew they were, but for some reason the people of that country refused to communicate with me!I had landed in St. Petersburg late in the morning and went straight to the address of the hospital that Masha had given me. I had sent a message that I was already there, but it had not yet been viewed." Dimitri Yaroslavovich Voitovich, I am here for him," I tried to speak slowly, hoping that they understood me.She just mumbled something in Russian, not giving me any special attention. I reached for my cell phone, activating the translator." Dimitri is my boyfriend, he was in the accident at the airport," I insisted.They said something to each other, then laughed. I looked at the cell phone screen, rolling my eyes at the translation."If you really date a Russian, you should at least learn to speak our language.”I took a deep b
BlairWhen I arrived at the waiting room, Masha was accompanied by Yuri, and was updating him on his brother's medical bulletin. I waited at an acceptable distance, giving them both some privacy, still feeling embarrassed at the memory of ruining the man's marriage. My sister-in-law approached after a few minutes with a tired expression on her face." Ready to go?"" Go? Go where? " I frowned.I had just arrived and didn't expect to leave that hospital so soon." I have the key to Dimitri's apartment, Yuri is staying in my place, I need to get some sleep and I imagine you do too!"" No, but…"" Blair, you need to rest, it won't do Dimitri any good if you stop sleeping."I could see myself in that speech, I had made it dozens of times over the past few weeks to my mother, and I knew she was right.I gave in, accepting her suggestion. We took a cab to Dimitri's apartment in comfortable silence. I couldn't help but admire the city without all the snow that covered it the last time I vis
BlairThe next day we went to the hospital early and I refused to leave until the end of the day, managing to see Dimitri for a few minutes through the observation window, but by the second day I couldn't stand the situation anymore. " Nadia, the doctor said that Dimitri is out of danger, right? " I walked beside the nurse.Somehow I had managed to make friends with most of the staff on that floor, all of whom seemed to be moved by the story of our recent fake engagement." Yes, he is responding very well to the treatment and although he is always asleep when you see him, he has spent some periods awake," she reported without slowing her pace." That's great, isn't it? " I smiled, trying hard to keep up with her." Yes, it's very good."" Good enough for me to spend time with him? " I tried.The nurse let out a giggle, leaving me behind." Nice try, Blair."I snorted, looking around before spotting my next hope." Good morning, Anna. You look especially beautiful today," I said, foll
Dimitri" You are progressing very well, Dimitri Yaroslavovich."Dr. Pavlova complimented me after she finished examining me this morning. It was already the third day since the accident, and as I told Blair the day before, I was tired of being in that room alone. " Well enough to get out of isolation? " I tried, getting a laugh in return. The woman, who looked about my age, flipped through my exams again, analyzing every point." Maybe," she winked, making me smile." You don't know how good it is to hear that," I sighed." After yesterday, I can imagine your desire to stay with Miss Ozkan. She is a unique piece."My smile was instantaneous at the mention of Blair. After fearing so much that I would never meet her again, she was there. Not that I was surprised that she had gone, her attitude was not strange at all, I would have done the same for her, but after spending so much time without seeing anyone but hospital staff, I began to suspect that no one knew where I was, which was
BlairI got a nice cup of coffee from the hospital cafeteria before going to Dimitri's room, immediately regretting the first sip. That was the worst thing I had ever drunk in this country! Well, maybe the second worst thing, I thought as I remembered the Kompot.I threw the almost untouched cup in the trash before going to the room where the nurse said she would take Dimitri, finding his entire family there. Before I could greet them, Masha pulled me into a corner." Did you talk to him? " she murmured." Yes, I've taken care of everything."Engaged! I can't believe I'm engaged!" And how are we going to tell my parents?"" We won't. We decided to keep it the story," I shrugged." Keep it? What do you mean to keep it?"" I'll explain later," I cut her off as I saw the nurse pushing Dimitri's stretcher down the hall.I entered the room and greeted my fiance's parents', who seemed about to shower me with their enthusiasm, but the arrival of their son overshadowed the situation a bit.
BlairWhen I opened the door, I bumped into Masha, who was sitting in the armchair outside." Did he sleep?”" Fortunately yes, unfortunately he didn't sleep fast enough to avoid embarrassing me," I sighed.That remark drew a laugh from my sister-in-law, who stood up and walked me to the cafeteria." I could cheer you up and say it wasn't so bad, but if I were you, I'd be looking for a way to teleport myself from that room straight to the nearest airplane.”" That's very encouraging!”I replied with a smile on my face." Come on, you better eat something before he wakes up and wants to cook for you.”" Please don't bring that up," I laughed beside her." I'll never let you forget this," she assured me. After getting a few packages of leek chips and two cartons of juice, I returned to Dimitri's room, watching over his sleep while I ate. A few hours later, someone knocked on the door, and then came in. I felt my face heat up at the sight of Joanne, I couldn't help but remember everyth
BlairI knocked on the door to Dimitri's room before opening it to find my fiancé sitting on the bed, distracted by a cell phone. I walked in, dragging the two suitcases I was carrying behind me, attracting his attention." Blair, I thought you weren't coming anymore," he smiled, placing the phone on the bedside table next to the bed, where the box was.It was after three in the afternoon, and I had decided to give his family some space to enjoy his company, and I also had a lot to do.I left the bags in the corner and walked over to the bed, giving him a quick kiss before turning away." Sorry for the delay, I was cleaning up your apartment and trying to find a place to put my things," I explained." And by the suitcases I am to assume that you created a space by dumping me?”I couldn't help smiling at the conclusion, if he is willing to make jokes, it means that he is better off than when I left him yesterday after telling him details of the accident." That would be a good solution
