"Well I'm not sure if the ceace fire will hold, but we'll be here for awhile in either case." I state.

"Well I wish your friend and her new future husband some luck then."
"Why you don't your family your secrets? Is it because they might hate you or something?"

Bassarov just arches and eyebrow, saying nothing. He drinks some of his coke, really not wanting to talk politics with these people. He wonders why he bothers befriending them at all. They are on the opposite side here. He wonders what if anything he has in common with them. But he remains pleasant and friendly, since as it goes, you win more flies with honey than with vinegar. "Did you read that book I lent you, Mischa?" Bassarov asks. If there is one of them he can reach, it is probably Mischa.
He turns to Rei. "You know, there is really no logical reason for you to befriend me."

"Well, I am sure they just wouldn't understand. I think, they would not accept it."
"So I keep my secrets to myself."
"I have not told them about my politics or why I never date."

I scoff slightly. "Since when has friendship ever been a logical thing? I like you because you're a good man and you treated me with respect... Sadly I don't see a lot of that, except from you and Mischa anymore."

"Oh the book, uh, I ah... Didn't know you lent me one..." I reply, somewhat self consciously. Though I feel flattered by what Rei said.

"You don't have to tell EVERYTHING to your family everything about your personal life or politics or your love life. I mean, it is your life, not theirs."

Bassarov nods. He knits his eyebrows in a thought, but it remains unsaid. He is still dogged by this feeling that Rei might be the one behind the terrible events in Venezuela. He does not respect that. He never could. He does not respect her or what she does or what he thinks that she does. "Oh, check again, I put it on top of some clothes in a duffle bag of yours." He feels ill talking to these people, physically ill, since he attaches the events happening in the world to them.... "It isn't their fault." He says aloud, then catches himself. He looks at them both.
"I mean, it isn't your fault if you didn't see the book. I tucked it in there pretty well."

"That's true. And you are right, I really don't need to tell them things. I just feel like they don't know who i really am. They know someone entirely different." I say as we walk.
I take her hand and stand there for a while just looking at the water.
I remain silent and can think of nothing to say anyway.

I feel a little sick as I get the impression that he may have figured out just what my real job is. I am feeling very uncomfortable in general right now, and I want to run away but I can't. "Well... Still I wouldn't mind spending a little time with you..." I say as I try to rebreak the ice.

I sense that there might be something up with him, but decide not to say anything about it. I just make a mental note.
"Alright. Yeah I'll take a look." I say politely, though I still feel intimidated by him. And maybe a little out of place. I feel like what they're doing is on a completely different plane than what I'm doing, and have been doing, like they have this semblence of freedom that I never had.

She took my hand and stop to look at the water.
"I used to come here a lot when I was little. After school released and instead going to straight to my home, i would come here and tried to look some fishes."

"Of course. Well, we are together right now. And I do enjoy the time we have together." Bassarov says. He feels a bitter taste in his mouth. He turns to Mischa but doesn't utter a word. He simply looks into his eyes as if to tell him something important. It is a penetrating and dark gaze, to convey some displeasure in dealing with them. "And really it is good to have friends of many kinds. You learn more about the world that way." Bassarov says to Rei, resuming his pleasant demeanor.

"I like the water. If it was later and people didn't see me, I might try going for a swim." I say to her.
I am not sure why I took her hand, but it is comforting. Her hand is warm and touching it relieves me of some burdon.
"I wish I lived on a a lake, I would go swimming all the time."

"Yes..." I manage and take a big gulp of soda and a long drag off my cigarette. "I'm glad to call you my friend. You taught me a lot and we haven't even done much together."
