Our Young Funny Voices Chapter Thirteen:
I needed some air.With a racing heart, I quietly grabbed my black Twenty One Pilots hoodie and candy apple red converse sneakers before hastily shrugging into everything and quietly leaving the apartment.I tried to focus on the leaves crunching under my feet as I briskly walked around outside, wandering aimlessly. I thanked God for the crisp, cool air and concentrated on inhaling.1....2.....What did Olya mean...she missed Vasha. What was really going on between them? As much as I wanted to believe the message was just a huge misunderstanding, my gut instinct wouldn’t let me.3...4...I broke into a sprint, running until I felt my lungs would burst. I had to let go of this anxiety, otherwise I might smash Vasha’s phone.You shouldn’t have looked at it....I scolded myself sourly. It’s probably nothing.....But what if it isn’t?I wracke
Our Young Funny Voices Chapter Fourteen:
Since Vasha made it crystal clear she wanted to cover everything for the remainder of her vacation, I decided to be sneaky and Uber us all over Phoenix. Waiting on the bus worked out great when I needed to get to and from PetSmart, but not so much while I only had a limited time frame to spend with Vasilisa.“How you guys doin’?” Our Uber driver, Jerome, greeted us with some Smooth Jazz as we slid in the back of his Silver 2018 Camry. I wasn’t much for cars, but I knew Vasha would be impressed. She fingered the all black leather interior in awe and whistled low. Her love for several ton vehicles interested me, because she was so passionate about them.“No complaints! Hope your nights’ going well.” I acknowledged him and we were on our way.“Music ok?” He asked over his shoulder and I nodded.“Yeah, nothing beats good Jazz.”I reminisced the past for a second, thinking about mine and

With everything taken care of as far as Vasha’s currency exchange and a few impromptu snack runs, we spent the next couple of days together in bed. Sex had always been a feverish event for me in the past. Tearing clothes off and smashing our bodies together in the heat of passion. Once it was over, I’d quickly recover and leave awkwardly. Especially when I was still screwing around with Katie. I just didn’t associate sex with anything special, because I’d never felt that deep connection with anyone before.Until now. It wasn’t that way with Vasha at all. I wanted to take my time and explore her every sensitive nerve ending with slow, deliberate attention. My nose craved her natural scent. My lips longed to be pressed against her’s. My mouth watered for her sweetness, that irresistibly sticky honey. I couldn’t even call our intimacy sex. It was gradual and affectionate, like over filling a glass of ice
Our Young Funny Voices Chapter Sixteen:
Lunch was beyond awkward.After Liza and I came back inside, Vasha refused to make eye contact with me as she quietly ate. Char tried keeping everyone’s spirits up by sharing a funny anecdote from work, but since my girlfriend couldn't understand it I was stuck translating. Have you ever tried talking with someone who didn't seem to want anything to do with you in the moment? You say something, they don't even acknowledge it? That's what was happening here, and it crushed me. Finally, I deflated completely and looked down at my lap blinking back tears. “Hey girl, are you ok?”Charlotte touched my arm supportively and tried to look me in the eye. I hate crying, especially in front of other people. My dad called it weak, and that was the last thing I wanted to be as a child. This resulted with me carrying on in private whenever possible. I swallowed the painful lump in my throat and nodded, afraid that if I spoke a tsunami of tears would break f

As curious as everyone had been, I couldn’t bring myself to speak about the falling out with Liza. We tried to get back into the normal groove of the evening but I felt too uncomfortable after what happened and spaced out during conversation. After some time passed, Livvy whisked Charlotte off to a friend’s house party and Vasha mercifully lead me to come to bed with her."Detka?" She touched my wet face as I started weeping. "I hate it when you cry..." The lump in my throat made it impossible to speak, so I just laid in the crook of her arm until sleep eventually took me from my thoughts.The next morning, I snuck out of bed before anyone else was up and disappeared into the bathroom.Maybe I’ll feel better after a hot shower I mused to myself, shuffling my Russian playlist on Spotify. “Compromise” by Bi-2 started playing. Fitting, since my whole damn life felt like one giant compromise. Trading in my best friend to protec
Our Young Funny Voices Chapter Eighteen:
Time got away from me with Vasha here. As the days came and went, it honestly felt like one perfect endless starry night emotionally.I’d already taken my girlfriend bowling, where she kicked my ass by about a dozen points and made a big show out of gloating over her victory. We went to the Phoenix Zoo a few days ago so we could visit the Sumatran Tigers, her most favorite animal, and roam around aimlessly while we talked about everything and nothing all at once.With only a couple days of Vasha's visit left, she'd shyly expressed wanting to try hiking with my roommates. I'd brought it up over dinner last night and as a result we’d just gotten back from hiking the Treasure Loop Trail with Char and Olivia. The Superstition Mountains were fairly easy to master, but Vasha never hiked or exerted herself at this level. I was proud of her determination to keep going even though I knew she was getting tired quickly. We specifically chose this trail, since there were plenty of benches for us t
Our Young Funny Voices Chapter Nineteen:
Eventually, it was time to get up. My alarm went off, and I groaned with sleepiness. My eyes felt like someone splashed acid into them as I gently shook Vasha’s shoulder. She stirred slightly, but stayed asleep.“Come on, little bat. You’ll miss your flight.” My voice caught emotionally as I rested on my side to pull her close to my chest. My girlfriend shifted so that she was facing me with an exhausted scowl. Even half asleep, my girlfiend was breathtaking.Her name really suited her; Vasilisa the beautiful.“Nggnnnn...no detka. I’m tired.” She grumbled, flinging her arm around my waist and mewling under her breath. I couldn’t help but smile as I stroked her temple.“I know you are. I promise you can go back to sleep in the car, ok?” After a few minutes of coaxing and babying her, Vasha eventually sat up and stretched lazily. With her eyes still closed, she turned her head in the direc
Our Young Funny Voices Chapter Twenty:
"You're fucking with me right now. When did you find out?” I heard myself incredulously ask Liza, who’d just admitted she found Max cheating on her with some buxom raven haired bimbo he’d known since college. She’d been accusing him of sneaking around for years, and as much as I couldn’t stand the guy I stuck my neck out and defended him, since the allegations seemed so far fetched. He worked long hours, and then came home to fight with Liza. That was their thing, always had been. He was an asshole, not a cheater. Or so I thought anyway. Liza was twiddling with the top button on her white sweater dress when she glanced up at me steadily. “...It’s been going on for months, but he didn’t come clean until I walked in on them a few days ago.” She let out a dark laugh, and her expression turned sour, like she’d just tried an unsavory food for the first time. “He didn’t even try to hide it, Fr
