Raivis didn't understand why Toris and Eduard kept trying to keep him away from the Russian they had come to live with. Though Ivan had forcibly brought him and his brothers into the Soviet Union, Raivis knew there was more to this man than met the eye.

He had been walking in the garden after a particularly bad day when he heard a noise on the other side of the bushes. Now curious, Raivis felt an urge to investigate. Cautiously he approached the bushes and with a small bit of effort, managed to peer through. There was the Russian.

He was stooped over a small bloomless garden with a curious glint in his eyes. Raivis tilted his head slightly as he listened. "Come, come little flowers. Please grow for me, da?" He prompted.

Raivis then left the bushes with a knowing smile about his host. As he walked away he could hear the Russian still attempting to sweet talk the flowers.
