" i didn't bring any presents, they can use the things i gave to your last ten children. " ( @barbiebraganca )

[innasoletskaya]

“ is eva still saying no?  i tried to teach her something else. ”  ( @barbiebraganca​ )

[innasoletskaya]

" i'm not going back to kyiv. "

❝ SHE'S ON HER way, or so she said. what's waiting for you back in kyiv that cannot wait a single day for your return ? you'll spend more time coming and going than actually here. ❞

[innasoletskaya]

" funny. " the corners of her lips lift slightly to reveal the smallest smile. " when is matilde getting here? if she's more than an hour late, i'm leaving. she's probably still buying gifts. claiming her title on the best aunt. "

❝ WHAT ELSE COULD they want when they already have the gift of your presence ? ❞

[innasoletskaya]

she thinks for a moment. should she tell them now? or would there be less dramatics if she told them later. she's weighing which option would be more convenient for her now... " i met someone and i'm going to go see them. " she's choosing to rip the bandaid off now. ( @matildcs )

          “ so you're finally moving closer to us, ” the expectation announces her arrival, empty-handed save for what lurks behind the double doors she passed through. and assumptions made on what little she has heard. “ i always said you would like catalonia better. ”

[innasoletskaya]

she zones out, allowing them to air all their questions out. what's the point of asking when they know her answers won't be enough to satisfy their absurd level of nosiness. " yes, it's ignác. " she lies. ( @matildcs )

          “ well, maybe someone wants to meet us too. ” though matilde knows better than to assume inna would have even mentioned them to this special ' someone ' an illusive figure without a single detail to curate an image of them. “ can we at least get a name? what do they look like? how did you meet? ”　...　　( @barbiebraganca )

[innasoletskaya]

she flinches, their excitement is already too much for her to handle. " no, you don't know them and it's new and not a big deal. you won't be meeting them for a while. " ( @matildcs )

          “ but i haven't — ” matilde's words fade, cut short by the sudden announcement that has the former duchess favoring her stance by the nearest seat. “ you met someone? ” the thrill is there, in tone, poking around for more than just this mysterious figure inna speaks of who could be anyone. “ you met someone!” it's inna that matilde quickly sits adjacent to. “ do we know this someone? ”　...　　( @barbiebraganca )
