Following him to her room, Katya let her mind wander back over the evening. She hadn't expected to chat with him quite so easily. She hadn't expected to like him. But he was surprisingly easy company even after she put her foot in her mouth. So when they stopped at her door and he thanked her for the invitation, she gave him a tentative smile. "Da, I was enjoying this as well," she told him, meaning it.

Reaching into her purse, she searched around for her keys. She found them and pulled them out but paused before unlocking the door. "If you are not minding..." This was such an awkward moment. Katya fussed with her keys for a minute, looking at her hands instead of at him. She didn't know why asking the question was so hard. It shouldn't have been. It was just a bunch of words. "Perhaps you might like to be seeing a movie again? Next time, it would be your choice, da? But if you are thinking this would be okay, then I could be giving you my phone number, and you could be giving me yours?" She made it sound as much like a question as possible and refused to look at him, just in case he said no. She was only human; no one liked rejection.
