"Yes please.That would be nice to have," Frank said with a smile.
"Da, that would be helpful," Anya agreed.

Part of the way through, Lien realized that some of the letters in English don't have a sound in Cyrillic.
"...Um...."
"What's wrong?" Frank asked.
"So... English has sounds and letters that don't translate into Russian..."
"Oh... uhm... I don't know how to help here..."
"Wait, what is it?" Anya asked.
"English has a ton of sounds that don't exist in the Cyrillic alphabet..."
"Oh... Maybe we could ask one of your parents for help?" Anya suggested.
"Okay. I'll be right back." lien ran off to grab Russia, but bumped into China on the way.
Splashing scalding hot tea isn't very fun, especially if it is on yourself. China let out a yelp of surprise, but thankfully didn't drop the cup. "Lien, you shouldn't be running in the house!" He scolded. After letting out a sigh, he asked, "Is there something you needed?"
Went to a.tea.store today. It was lovely. Then I had two things of mango bubble tea, but one had mango pudding in it. I was so happy)
"Is mommy busy? I need him to help teach English to Anya." she explained.
> a place that sells bubble tea opened up at a mall nearby, i have yet to go in it
Oh, and it's also called milk tea, just in case I haven't told you yet.
TRY IT!!! You might like it, you might not. I hope you enjoy it, and if not, you never have to try it again)
"Your mother is doing some work. I think he might enjoy getting away from it though."
Lien snatched Russia from his office and went back to her room.
"So what is the problem here?" Russia asked
"Lien is making flash cards for us of the alphabet, but not all the English letters and sounds are in the Russian one," Frank explained.
"Ah I see...Well, I learned how to speak English before I learned to read it, but that made it easier to learn how to read. So maybe you only learn the words that don't translate into Russian verbally, and then the other ones you can learn by flash card."
> bro... this one cosplay russia blog is perfect: http://ask-aphrussia.tumblr.com
"Oh, alright. I suppose that makes sense. Thank you Mr. Braginsky." Anya said with a smile. "So what sounds don't translate?"
FREAKING PERFECT)
"Well, there is a "th" sound... Short vowel sounds (except for short I)... I'm sure there are others, but I can't think of them. English is an odd language."
> SO PERFECT
i wanna snuggle with something
"It sounds confusing... I guess I'll get used to it eventually." Anya shrugged.
Snuggle with me)
> snuggling intensifies
"Okay. Well, I will leave you kids alone now. I have... *sigh* work to do..." Russia kissed Lien's nose and trudged back to his office.
"How much work does he have to do?" Anya asked.
[size=2pt]Oh god, not this again)
> shshshshsh feel the love
"A lot. He works directly with the president of all of Russia. Oh, I just realized your parents don't know you're hear. And your parents don't know you're here either!"
Russia went back into his office, flopped into his swivel chair, and went "ughhhhhhhhhh."
