I do not own Hetalia okay? I got a decent response to this story and it is a kind of challenge to write it in this format. But anyway, enough of this A/N on with the fic!

October 17th 1914

(from the diary of Ivan Braginsky)

Today has been a very happy day. It seems that all of Natalya and Fredka's hard work have finally paid off. They are expecting a child and it is due in the late spring. Natalya seems certain that she is having a boy and when I asked her about this and how she was so certain, she just called it mother's intuition and moved on. Katyusha was so excited to become an aunt; she gave Natalya a large hug. We then had a drink to celebrate although Natalya refused, saying she did not want any harm to befall her son before he was born.

Normally it is Fredka at work who asks about my love life, or well lack thereof, but this time it was Natalya. I then asked her why she isn't asking Katyusha and said that with her taste in men, it was very likely that she was going to remain a spinster for life. It sounded kind of rude but soon after this Katyusha met up with a man named Sadiq. I don't know what it is but I do not trust that Turk, especially if he just keeps wearing that mask like a bandit. Katyusha assured us he's fine but even Fredka, a very trusting man, at least on first meeting people seemed a little suspicious. We all agreed it was not because of where he was from, but the mask and the fact that Katyusha has made some poor choices in suitors before. Men who used her and stood her up at the altar, men who used her for physical release and used her for what little money she did have. In terms of personality, Katyusha is completely different from Natalya.

When Katyusha left Natalya asked again and all I could say is that I hadn't found the right woman who would put up with having to live with her sister-in-law because I could not abandon Katyusha to the wild world. Fredka said he'd put up with her if that was the case, but I didn't want to tell them the truth. I just do not feel anything for any woman I have met. They certainly are interesting to talk to but I would rather be alone than to force love. Heck the closest relationship outside of my sisters I have is with Fredka, and he is my brother-in-law….

So how was that? Good? Bad? Short? Long? (for a journal entry.) Let me know in a review. I'm going to try and get the others entries for this day up today. Just depends on how I am feeling. Anyway remember to read (well you just did) and to review. Ciao for now
