How do you settle down? (Closed)

[TertiusHuman]

David Hild

The phone rang on the other end, after six rings, the connection was made and a disinterested voice said: "Da?"

David smiled to himself, "Viktor, I have told you many times to not answer your phone like that."

A short silence followed his words and then a barked laugh, "David! You old dog! How are you? Are you visiting?"

David chuckled at the enthusiasm, "No Viktor, I am not visiting. I am doing well, how are you and how is business?"

"Meeeeh, you know how it goes. Somedays good and . . ."

"Somedays bad, yes I know."

Viktor laughed, "What can I do for you, my friend?"

"I need one of your . . . special offers."

A special offer from Viktor Kreshenko meant only one thing, a young girl desperately looking for a way out of her current situation. The well-known "Russian brides"

"Noooo, why would you want a special offer, my friend? No, I cannot do this."

David sighed, "You know that I can pay Viktor."

There's a moment of silence, "Is this for yourself?"

"Yes, it is for me."

Viktor sounded puzzled, "What? You ran out of women where you are?"

David laughed, "No, but I need a woman who can speak Russian and can keep her mouth shut when needed."

"Ahhhh, you want a nice Russian slave girl?"

David winced, "No Viktor, I just know that most of the girls do not tell everybody their business."

There's a bit of silence, "You want one with no family then? An orphan?"

"You mean that is something that I can ask for?"

Viktor laughed loudly, "Russia is a large country, comrade! Of course, you can ask for that and I am sure I will kick one out behind a bush. Tell Viktor what you prefer and he will make sure that you get what you are looking for. You want orphan, that is top of list already."

David thought about Viktor's words, well then since he could ask for anything . . . "Blonde, blue eyes, fit body."

Silence, "That is all you want? That is like majority of Russian women. Maybe less if you are looking for orphan."

David blinked, he wasn't good with things like this, "What more do you need?"

"Comrade! You are a man of means, now you can be very choosey, Viktor will find. What blonde you want?"

"Platinum?"

"Ah, good choice comrade, they stand out very nicely. You want what kind of blue eyes?"

"Ice blue will fit nicely."

"Ah yes, like proud Valkyrie warrior woman, I will look for closest, if I can't find what is your other choice of eye?"

"Brown will also work."

"Good! You are easy man to please comrade. How tall do you want?"

David realized that he had not thought about that, "Around one point six meters."

Viktor chuckled, "At least you don't want her in feet. Fit body, like what fit? Runner, model, tennis player?"

David thought about that, "Gymnast."

Viktor laughed, "Good, good, you need a flexible woman. So of course, you want tits. Big, small, just enough?"

"I doubt you will get a gymnast with big breasts Viktor."

Viktor laughed once more, "Do you want to bet comrade?"

David grimaced, "No Viktor, I know not to bet with a Kosak. If I have to choose, C-cup will be perfect."

"Ah yes, you one of few men who know that, you tell nobody, da?"

"Of course Viktor, I know how to keep a secret."

"You sure you don't want model, my friend? I have three, one looks like this what you are asking for, she is just taller."

David shook his head, even though Viktor could not see the motion, "No, I don't want a model. They are too high-strung."

Viktor laughed heartily, "HIGH-STRUNG! Ha! First time I hear a demanding bitch described that way. Now for extra fee, I can look for virgin?"

David grimaced, "No, I don't have time for that."

"Good, good. You want near your age heh?"

David chuckled, "I'm not telling you my age Viktor, younger is better anyway."

"Eyyy, can't blame a man for trying eh. OK, say 19?"

"Make it 21 or older and you have a deal."

Silence from the other side and then Viktor spoke up, "Alright comrade, I don't have woman like this right now, but when I do, I will send you amount, you pay and I will confirm when package is on the way, da?"

"Yes, that sounds like a good deal to me."

There's a sharp slapping sound from the other end, "Ha! Good then comrade. I will contact you soon, you will be very satisfied, I promise."

"Thank you Viktor, do svidaniya."

"Do svidaniya, comrade."

David ended the call, looked at the screen, and then slid the phone into a pocket. It was always strange to do business with Viktor, but he knew that he could trust the man.

 

[Kililia]

Alyona was from a poor area, she never allow herself date or be with any of the men as they be no future and cycle of poverty. She had worked and try find better job but nothing came of all this search. She knew she had certain asset to sell but refuse to a prostitute.

She heard of a program of mail order bride and promise wealthy men to settle down in other part of the world. The day she join a man quickly contacted her and took picture. They found her a husband right away. She only had a back pack and passport. The very same day they shift her on a plane to USA. She was honestly terrified but refuse to flee and this was hope for future. All she knew was that he husband was retired and now work from home. He lived a bit off grid in 10 acre land with animals. He be picking her up at airport.

She arrived in a pair of jeans, blue sweater and blue coat. She look around and back at the picture of her husband as she waited for him to pick her up.

 

[TertiusHuman]

David received a text a few days later, which was much faster than he had expected, he paid the amount, which was not much from his point of view, and got confirmation of the funds received and that the package was underway, with a flight number and arrival time.

The next morning, he fed the animals, had a shower, got dressed into a pair of black jeans, a white t-shirt with a flannel shirt over it. He drove to the airport in his pick-up truck, parked, and got out. The problem, he realized right then, was that Viktor did not send him a picture of the woman. He silently cursed the man as he stood among the group of people at arrivals, the only thing he could do, was to wait for a woman unable to speak English and who looked lost.

 

[Kililia]

Alyona look around the airport, she was trying find the person. Luckily the man had showed her pictured of her man. She approached him cautious and spoke in Russian: " are you Mr.Hild...? My husband?"

 

[TertiusHuman]

Through the crowd he noticed a blonde moving towards him, for a moment he was struck silent, if this was the package or rather the girl, she looked more like she had stepped out of a fantasy than being a real woman. It was when she spoke in Russian, that he realized, that it was her, the woman that Viktor had found for him. He knew that she had to be older than 21, that was one of the specifications, but she sure as heck did not look it. He smiled at her and replied,

"Yes, I am David Hild."

He held out his hand in greeting

 

[Kililia]

Alyona smiled and shaked his hand:" I am Alyona, your wife... Hope your not dissapointed...." She did not seem notice all the men staring at her:" shall, we go home, husband? "

 

[TertiusHuman]

Her hand felt soft and warm as she shook his hand, he wanted to ask if he could help her with her luggage and realized that she was carrying her luggage.

"Pleased to meet you Alyona."

The name seemed familiar, but he was quite certain that he had never heard or met the name before.

"I fear that Viktor has not told you the entire truth. We are not yet married, he would have given you papers, we will have to get them to my attorney, sign them and have it verified in a court, then we will be married by law."

He smiled, "But I will not leave you here because of that, if that backpack is all you have brought with you, we will have to get you clothing for a start. Did Viktor even give you the papers?"

 

[Kililia]

Alyona felt a bit unsafe as he explain they were not married yet as she thought she was before.... She smiled: " it's in my backpack... I have a few t-shirts, pants...dress and underwear"

She shrugged:" okay, if you think , it's best...Vik didnt say ...where you live"

 

[TertiusHuman]

He gently patted her shoulder, "As I said, we just need to get the paperwork sorted, three days at most."

He unlocked and opened the door of the truck for her, struck again at how young she looked, she was beautiful and he was sure that under the comfortable clothing lay exactly what he had thought of when Viktor asked the questions about what he wanted. He closed the door behind her, got in behind the wheel, and started the truck, "I have a house with a few animals on a rather large bit of estate outside of town, it is a bit secluded but not completely off the grid."

He maneuvered out of the parking area and drove to the nearest clothing store, where he parked. "T-shirts, pants, a dress, and underwear. That will just not be enough, let's go do some shopping, or rather you and the ladies in the shop will do the shopping and I will stand around and look like I know what you are doing."

 

[Kililia]

Alyona only spoke broken English but wanted to learn the language. She just could not afford it in her hometown so she was grateful that her husband spoke Russian.

She smiled:" it sounds beautiful, I love animals...I garden at home...so I love to grow thing on the land..."

She shook her head:" I rather shop with you...if that's okay?" * She hesitated*" would it be okay if I learn English, here?"

 

[TertiusHuman]

He smiled as he got out of the truck, "I will have to translate for you, so basically you will be shopping with me, but I know nothing about style and sizes, so that is why the ladies will help you."

He walked around the truck and opened the door for her, "Of course, since it is basically the only language most people speak around here, it will be good for you to learn English."

He closed the door and they both walked towards the store, "There is enough space so you can grow vegetables if you want to, it will not be necessary, but if you want to, you can. There is a small garden, but not many trees around the house. I don't like too many trees and shrubs around the house, I like to look out on the field."

 

[Kililia]

She smiled as she listened and followed him happily. She smiled as she loved how he opened her the door. She followed his lead:" I want grow big garden..please... Is that okay??"

 

[TertiusHuman]

He nodded, "Of course, if you have more vegetables than what can be used, you can always sell them and keep the money for yourself."

The entered the store and one of the assistants moved closer, looking at him with a puzzled look, but he motioned to Alyona and smiled, "This is Alyona, she needs clothes, but she speaks only Russian. I am here to translate for her."

The woman looked at Alyona, taking in her figure and look, a slight look of jealousy coming over her features, but she smiled and nodded. David turned to Alyona, "Alyona, look around and if there is anything you want to know, just ask, I will translate for you."

 

[Kililia]

Alyona smiled at him and went through the store as she pick few dresses that were very pretty and modest as it was spring. She made the sign to the lady and was completely ignored. She hesitated wondering if she did something wrong and walk over to him:" I need this in a 0 and 2, please....I don't think she saw me"

The lady came over with a fake smile to Alyona:" will that be all? " * She doesn't bother letting Alyona. Reply and turn to David*

 

[TertiusHuman]

David raised an eyebrow, was the woman being obscene for a reason? Jealousy? Could be, Alyona was very pretty after all.

"She says that she will need those in a 0 and 2. What else would you suggest for her?"

 

[Kililia]

The lady glance at Alyona: " This store might not be her style...And i think best she return when she speaks better English cause we wanna serve to all her need"

Alyona looked at the woman and though she did not understand the woman, she knew a bitch when she saw one: " What she say about me?"

 

[TertiusHuman]

David patted Aloyona's shoulder, "She said that the store is not your style and you need to speak English. Don't worry, I will sort this."

He took out his phone and dialed a number, it rang for a few moments and then got answered.

"David?"

He put the phone on loudspeaker, "Hey Dorian, how are you?"

"I am good, it is strange to hear from you, my shop does not really cater to your tastes."

David chuckled, "Well, it still doesn't, but I have a young lady with me, from Russia. Susan here told me that your shop does not fit the young lady's style."

All the color drained from the saleswoman's face, Dorian was the owner of the shop and several other franchises. He was silent for a few moments, "Let me speak to her."

"You're on speaker."

"Susan is it?"

She leaned closer, "Y-yes sir."

"You have five minutes, I want you to evacuate my store and if you are still there in five minutes, the police will arrive and arrest you for anything I can think of."

She looked fearfully at David, "Yes, sir."

"Good, now. David, I am very sorry about this. There should be a lady called Lucy, she's new and she's young. Let her assist your girl."

"She doesn't speak English."

"I know that you can, translate and tell the young lady that if she wants anything that she can't find in the store, I will get it for her personally."

"Alright Dorian, thank you."

"No problem, you still have that longbow I want?"

David smiled, "Tell you what Dorian, you come out to the ranch and outshoot me with it, then you can have it."

Dorian laughed, "Fat chance, but I will come to visit you anyway."

"Bring some Vodka."

"You got it, talk to you again David."

"Right, thanks again, goodbye."

He hung ended the call and looked at Susan, "You heard the man. Get Lucy over here and let us shop."

Susan walked away, looking a bit unsteady on her feet, David turned to Alyona, he explained to her what he had discussed with the owner of the shop when a young girl joined them. She had a friendly smile and the moment she saw Alyona, she blurted out, "Wow, you're beautiful."

David translated for Alyona what Lucy had said.

 

[Kililia]

Alyona was not sure what was happening but it sound serious and concerning the rude woman as she look like she was about to faint. She was shocked as her husband manage to take care of that woman, it was frightning of the power he help.

She blushed at the youg woman complement and thank her, and continued to shop. As she arrived she picked a black skirt with a flowery top and 5 dresses, 3 pants, 3tshirt and 2 big cute comfy sweater. She looked at her husband: "too much? shall i return some?"

The new girl looked at David: " I look hard for the dress she wanted, but we dont seem have them in the store. But i can find the location to order...heheh, I might even get one myself, its those old fashion 1950's dresses. Maybe i can call my boss ask if we can get her some, if you leave contacts?"

 

[TertiusHuman]

David smiled at Alyona, "If that is what you want, then it is enough, if you want more, you can get it. There is no problem, you can buy anything you want, maybe get more underwear?"

He turned his attention to Lucy, "If that is what she wants, then get it for her. I will leave my contact details for you. If there is anything else, please help her."

Lucy nodded, "She is a lucky girl. She says that you are her husband?"

David chuckled, "Call it fiance. I think she needs more underwear, she really didn't bring much with her."

Lucy nodded, hooked her arm with Alyona, and led her away again, David looked after the two with a smile and then followed to do translation if necessary.

 

[Kililia]

Alyona gasp as she forget the most important, blushing and asked the girl. She was led to the underwear section. She quickly selected a dozen underwear to almost many type of bra. She grabbed mid thigh hose and several garter belts. As she handed the thinks to the girl. She quickly added it all that resulted almost to 4000$"

Alyona gasp and start to put away things;" it's too expensive, let's go to another store or buy just materiel, I can see"

 

[TertiusHuman]

David stopped Alyona as she started to put things away and state that things are too expensive. "Stop that, I told you that you can buy anything you want and I meant it."

He motioned to Lucy, "We will take all of the things she had picked out please, also add that suitcase over there, it looks large enough to take everything."

He turned to look at Alyona, "Don't do that again, please. It is embarrassing."

 

[Kililia]

Alyona didn't wanna advise his kindness as he stopped her. She glance at the large beautiful suitcase. She winced as he replied: "Don't do that again, please. It is embarrassing."

She lowered her gaze and bite her lower lip nervously and whispered:" sorry"

 

[TertiusHuman]

David rested his fingers under her chin and tilted her head upwards, for her to look at him. "I am not angry or reprimanding you. I am just asking you."

The clothing all got placed in the suitcase and David paid for it, carrying the suitcase out to the truck and placing it in the back, before opening the door for Alyona. As he got in behind the wheel, an earlier thought occurred to him, "Alyona, just how old are you? I hope you are 21 or older."

 

[Kililia]

Alyona looked up at him nervously but relaxed as he reassure her that he was not angry at her and she nodded. She followed behind him quietly as she looked in awe at her surrounding. She was glad that she mostly picked up dresses. She got in the car with him and was confused by his question:" what you mean... How ...you not know my age, the boss and you agreed on it... Why would my age be an issue?

 

[TertiusHuman]

He smiled as he started the truck, "I know Viktor, he loves to cut a few corners. I specifically asked for 21 and older, because then we can actually visit a restaurant and have a drink. Legal drinking age and all that?"

He pulled into traffic and started to drive, switching on the climate control to keep them nice and cool during the drive.
