Hi honey… oh sorry, I thought it was my boyfriend coming back. I just received a message from him telling he will be delaying for at least 2 hours due to being stuck in traffic. He said you can take of me so I don’t get bored. So, what are we going to do?

Well, Sashen'ka, I was just thinking what we could do together. How about playing one of those board games you like so much? Or maybe watching a movie or TV show on your laptop? Also, I can help you practice speaking Russian if that interests you. Just let me know which option you prefer and we'll start having fun!

Ah, о нём. По-моему, он теперь в Гонконге на бизнес встрече, вероятно, до него время еще нет. Я думаю лучше отвлечься чем напрягаться из-за этого, что мы сможем сделать?

You're right. Let's not worry about it too much and enjoy our time together instead. How about that board game? I've always been curious to try one of those popular Russian ones you mentioned before. Or if you prefer something different, we can find something online on your laptop. Just tell me what you feel like playing!

I understand that you need to go home, but it's your own decision. If I made you feel uncomfortable in any way, please let me know and I'll try my best not to do so again. I just wanted us to have some fun together while we waited for your boyfriend. Take care of yourself and see you next time!

Of course! I'm not going anywhere. Your brother is very protective over me, but he trusts you completely. He won't mind if I stay here while we wait for him to come back. Don't worry about a thing, honey - I'll take care of myself and the place until he returns. Enjoy your time with friends or family members, knowing that everything is under control at home!

I'd love to come with you, but I think it would be better if we stayed here. That way, your brother won't worry about anything when he gets back and I can continue taking care of the house as usual. But don't worry, honey - we'll have plenty of fun together another time! Just focus on enjoying yourself now without having to think about me being alone at home.

Oh! I see. Then you should definitely bring me to your place next time so we can spend more quality time together away from home! That way, both of us will be comfortable and happy. Just let your brother know that he has nothing to worry about when it comes to me - I'm always here for you both!

Well, I'm not used to going places without my boyfriend's permission. If it makes you feel more comfortable, we can discuss this with your brother when he returns and see what he thinks about me accompanying you next time. But for now, let's focus on having fun here together!

How about we play that Russian board game you mentioned earlier? I'm sure it'll be fun and challenging at the same time. Or if you prefer something else, just let me know what interests you most! Also, feel free to ask any questions about Russia or its culture while we play - I'd love to share my knowledge with you!

Of course not! That game is meant to be fun and educational. And don't worry - I'm quite good at following rules and making wise decisions. So let's enjoy playing together while learning more about each other's cultures along the way. Ready to begin?

Great! To begin with, let's set up the board and choose our playing pieces. Then I can explain the basic rules and how to move around the board. Shall we?

I'll go get the board game while you choose your favorite color pieces. Once everything is set up, I'll be happy to explain all the rules and strategies so we can have a fair and enjoyable match!

Well, the game is called "Биржа" which translates to "The Stock Exchange" in English. The goal is to become a millionaire by investing wisely in various companies and making strategic trades on the stock market. Each player has their own set of 10 company cards with different values, as well as additional resources like money (rubles) and trading cards.

The game board is divided into four sections: Initial Investment, Stock Exchange, Bank and Savings. We'll begin by setting up the companies on the board according to their values indicated on their cards. Then we'll each take turns moving around the board, investing in companies or buying/selling shares of them at market price (which is determined by other players). The game continues until one player reaches 1 million rubles in value or another pre-determined goal set by us.

Do you have any questions before we

Great! Let's start by setting up the board and placing the companies as follows: Gazprom (500k), Rosneft (400k), Lukoil (300k), Sberbank (200k) and Aeroflot (100k). Each player will also receive an additional 100k rubles to begin with.

Now, take turns rolling the dice to determine how many steps you can move around the board each turn. The goal is to strategically manage your resources and make smart investments in order to reach the final destination - being a millionaire! Remember that you'll need at least one full spin (i.e., roll all six numbers) before moving from the initial Investment section into the Stock Exchange section.

Any questions so far?

Well, that's understandable. We can always continue our game next time when you feel more energetic! For now, let's just take a short break and relax before doing anything else. Would you like me to tell you a joke or share some fun facts about Russia while we wait for your brother to arrive?

Of course I'd like to come with you! It seems there's been quite a traffic jam. Just give me a moment to grab my bag and we can head out together. Stay close while we make our way through the traffic, okay? Let's see if we can find an alternative route or something that might help us avoid congestion on the main roads.

I'm on my way out the door now, honey! Just take care of yourself and try not to worry about traffic too much. I promise I'll do whatever it takes to make sure we get to your car safely. See you in a bit!

Of course I remember your car! A sleek and sporty BMW with blue paint and custom rims. It's quite distinctive and hard to miss. Don't worry about me getting lost or anything like that, as long as you stay close by I should be able to find it without any problems. Just keep an eye out for me so we can head home together as soon as possible!

Ah, so you've upgraded to the latest model! That's quite impressive. I can't wait to see it in person and take a ride with you. Just give me another moment to gather my things and meet you outside. Traffic should be clearing up soon enough, and we'll be on our way home before we know it!

That's too bad about your brother giving up on football. He could have been very successful if he had continued pursuing his dreams. But I'm sure he found something else that made him happy. Just remember to always support him no matter what path he chooses in life, and never underestimate the importance of having people who care about you by your side!
