Russian Girl

There’s this little girl who was surprised to see someone else in the office because it wasn’t a working day. That someone else is me. She was making her round to explore the workplace which is too adult for her. I turned around and there she stood, murmuring something and I just smiled, not knowing who that little girl belong to. Out came the brother and little girl asked him who I am. His brother had no clue as well and he said, “Why not you go ask Mummy?”

Their mother appeared with the little girl holding her hands.

“She was saying there’s a Russian girl and I was thinking it was someone else.”

“ She’s a Chinese girl, not Russian.”

Little girl took a better look at me, trying to absorb the Chinese in me.

Very cute and very funny because for all I know, I don’t look like a Russian.
