Ekatarina informs Marie that she is going to drive her to Vilnius for wedding shopping. The drive is over four hours.
She has also arranged for both of them to stop over for a few days, in part as Ekatarina has decided to have a tattoo done finally at Positive Tattoo.
She is looking forward to both time with Emel who she finds refreshingly sweet and innocent in a lot of ways but naive to the reality in the wider world. If she is honest with herself, she enjoyed the sexual encounter and bearing in mind she has had sex with a father and daughter though at different times. She knows she has to keep the sex with Pytor a close secret, but this does not stop her fantasies of having sex with together in particular as she has directed a number of porn movies where this is part of the main plot in most of them.
She recognises how new to Marie a lot of the world is having never ventured out into the world beyond Kuldiga. Marie marvels that Ekaterina has a great car. Marie can drive herself having learnt on farm vehicles but does not even know about license to drive. A lot of the time gets around on Alexia anyway.
The girls arrive in Vilnius after the long drive. On the trip Ekaterina has been wearing a charcoal grey mini dress and a black and white designer coat with a fur lined hood and white fur cuffs, designed knee length boots that are designed like straps of leather with gaps showing her slim, slender calves and carrying a small accessorising blue satchel bag with gold chain. Marie wears a light blue long sleeved top which when she stretches up shows her trim midsection and a knee length dark blue above knee skirt, her long flaming curly red hair loose while Ekaterina's blond hair is worn in a ponytail.
The visit the store where Marie's wedding dress can be selected and measured. Marie is happy to have Ekaterina advise and select. The long drive let's Marie realise she misses having a female friend, not something she had ever really considered or thought about.
Ekaterina explains to Marie about her tattoo, she explains it may take several hours but Marie is intensely interested. It's like wearing beautiful clothes you never take off. She watched the tattooing process after asking if it hurts receiving the answer a little, but the results are worth it. No pain, no gain.
The blue and purple flower is intricate and beautiful, when it's finished Marie asks, "Can I touch it?" She receives a nod in reply. Ekatarina winces a bit but says "it's ok." "It's beautiful." Marie looks at all the designs in a book. The wonder of the images and colour. I'd like to have that one. She shows a very intricate design showing both arms which Ekaterina explains is referred to as 'full sleeve' and a design that extends down her back and left hip. Again, Marie's innocence enchants Ekaterina totally. The cost she decides she will pay as a gift to the girl she feels she is falling in love with. Ekaterina explains it will take many days and again Marie just assumes they will wait.
