walks by, he has run out of wax to style his hair with and is on the way to buy some more. He turns to look at the rather familiar woman.

peers through the window of the store, smiling at all the small and cute cakes.

stops and walks up to her, standing next to her. She did seem rather familiar. Unfortunately though he doesn't know who she is.

blinks. She notices someone standing beside her and looks up to stare at the man whose hair is down. He looks familiar, somehow.

looks back at her for a bit, then back at the cakes. It was pretty awkward to ask who she was, so he asks, "You like cakes...?"

also gazes back on the cakes inside the pastry shop and nods, smiling. "Da, I do, but I do not think I have tried those kinds before."

continues to look at the cake and nods. "I see..." He turns to look at her. "You seem rather... familiar though."

now turns her attention towards the man, watching him with curious eyes. "I was thinking the same, actually... Have I met you before?"

continues looking at her, and shakes his head. No she just looked familiar, but he was sure they haven't met before.

pouts a bit when he did not answer. She thinks she has seen him before, but something was off. Was it his hair? "Privyet, my name is Anya."

"And my name is Abel... You happen to look like another Russian I know..." He narrows his eyes as he examines her face closely.

blinks as she gets analyzed by Abel. "Oh I do? Well I suppose I do look like someone, but there are plenty of Russians, da?"

tilts his head, still examining her face. "There are, but you look like a guy I know... do you happen to know an Ivan...?"

perks up and smiles quickly. "Ah! You know Ivan? Da, I do know him! I am his counterpart!"

blinks. This explained a lot, though he isn't so sure about the counterparts business. "Counterpart...?"

how she should explain this. "Well Abel... you are nation too, da?" She asks.

nods his head. "Ja. I am the Netherlands."

about it and finally draws a conclusion. "Ah! I knew you look familiar! Your hair is just down!" She giggles.

"Ja, it is. I was actually on my way to get more wax to keep it up. But you still haven't explained the counterpart thing."

"Ah! Prosti menya!" She smiles. "Well, you also have a counterpart too, Abel. I have not seen her so much though." She thinks, "Well somehow

every nation has a gender counterpart. I do now know how it happened though."

blinks in surprise. Somehow he suspected something was a little strange now but he wasn't so sure what. But now he knew. "I have a_

counterpart as well...?" He wonders how she looked like.

nods and smiles. "Da, you do!" She giggles and pokes his cheek slightly. "And from what I remember, she also frowns like you~"

frowns a little at the poking. "That's nice to hear..." He mumbles. "Well if you'll excuse me, I need to get my wax."

blinks and nods, letting him pass by her before she quickly says. "Ah, I think you look nice with your hair down, Abel."

walks by her but turns around when she complements his hairstyle. "I do?" Nobody has said that to him before.

( I actually do like his hairstyle both up and down >u< )

nods and smiles. "Da! I like it on you. It suits you." She continues to look up at his hair.

shrugs. "I prefer to not have my fringe in my face at times." He looks at the other. "Would you like to accompany me to the store then?"

[[I like both his hairstyles too |D]]

( Heee~ >u<!! I have a soft spot for his hairstyle lol XD )

(( ... gdit! It's cuz we have a four letter name that starts with an 'A', i didn't realize you replied to this! XD )

hums at that and smiles. "I would love to." She smiles. Perhaps she will buy cake later and have him as company.

[[xDD Lol!]]

[[it's okay~]]

nods and stalks walking, tugging his scarf around his neck to make it slightly tighter. It was getting cold again.

follows right behind him, watching him tug on his scarf. A little curious bug bit her. "Hey Abel, do you have a reason why you wear a scarf?

besides being cold?"

shrugs. "I don't know actually," He admits. "It just feels natural to have it on..."

just wondered if he had the same reason as Ivan. She guesses not. "The same for your hair too then, da? It feels natural to have it up?"

about it. "Well I just prefer to not have it in my eyes. It's more of a personal preference."

hums. "Is that so~?" She kind on wants to see him with his hair up now.

reaches the store and opens the door, holding it for her and nods. "It is. And it's less messy as well."

thanks him and goes inside the store. "Hmm.. Now I wonder how Ivan would look like with his hair up."

looks a little amused as he goes into the store. He's never thought about that. Picking up a jar of wax, he stares at it thoughtfully._

"Maybe if you bought one of these and used it on him you'd find out."

(( pfff sorry I have a thing for hairstyle =u= I should so do this... ))

[[xDDD it'd be... interesting c:]]

giggles at the thought. It would be very interesting to do. "Perhaps I should, da? He always does have his fringe by his eyes." She looks_

at the same hair gel product Abel was holding.

hands the jar over to her. "You can buy one if you like. It's pretty strong so it keeps the hair up rather well."

smiles and takes the jar. "I will try it then. And if I like how it looks on him, I will invest more of these." She can even

use it on her brother too! ... Only if he decides to appear to her.

nods and takes another jar for himself. "Though, if you do ever manage to style Ivan's hair, I would like a picture." He is curious about_

the results.

giggles. "I will try to, comrade. I will make sure he will not break my camera when I take a picture of him." While she is at it, she

might as well buy herself some shampoo. Having long hair always ends up with her use up the shampoo too quickly.

looks around the store, wondering what else he needed. He might as well buy some other things before he runs of of them.

looks over at him and giggles. "Do you also need a basket? I might as well do some grocery shopping."

shakes his head. He didn't really need to buy that many items. He just picked a bottle of shampoo from a shelf. "I'm going to pay for these_

first." He starts making his way to the counter.

nods and lets him go first. She just got more stuff for personal hygiene mostly and goes off to pay as well.

made his purchase and waits at the entrance for her.

quickly follows right after she pays for her purchase. "Here!"

nods and smiles a little. "I think I'll be heading home after this."

pouts a little bit at that but quickly smiles. "Ah your hair truly must be bothering your eyes right now, da?"

what she says is probably right. "It is, actually." He pushes back his fringe, fingers running through his hair before removing his hand_

and letting the fringe fall back down.

giggles at this. "Why not put some of your hair product now, da?"

shrugs. "I guess I will." He takes out the jar and opens it, taking some wax and applying it to his hair, slowly styling it with experience.

watches him style his hair, taking note of how she should try to style Ivan's hair when she gets the chance.

finishes after a while and looks at her, keeping the gel. His fringe was no longer in his face, that was a relief.

reaches up curiously to touch his hair styles with gel. "Hmm interesting~"

blinks as she does so. "Do you like it?" He asks.

nods and smiles. "Da, I do. You look handsome with your hair gel up." She honestly says.

blinks and smiles a little. "Thank you," He reaches up and touches his hair once more. "I'm curious on how you're going to go about styling_

Ivan's hair though."

giggles at the thought again. "You will just have to see, da? I will do it soon."

nods. "I shall wait for a picture from you then." He wonders how soon is soon, but then again she seemed rather excited about it anyway.

nods and smiles. "I will. So does this mean it is good bye time now? You have to get going now?"

nods. "Probably. It was nice shopping for a bit with you."

pouts a little but understands that he has his own thing he needed to do. She smiles and nods. "Likewise, I wish to meet you soon again."
