The brand new shoes Luka purchased for me and had delivered sit on the living room table, lined up like naughty little suspects. He didnât just get me a new pair of sneakers. He also bought a pair of black heels, a pair of black ballet flats, and two pairs of sandalsâone with a wedge heel and one without.
âYou can keep staring at them, Pchelka, but they are going in the closet with the rest of your belongings.â Luka rounds the couch and sits on the cushion beside me.
âI put on the pair you gave me yesterday. Why did you have to do this too?â I point at the shoe boxes lined up in front of us. And itâs not like he went the reasonably priced route either. The black heels are Jimmy Chooâs. I could pawn them and pay my rent for a few months.
âBecause you needed more than one pair, and some nice shoes.â He picks up the box with the sleek wedge sandals in them and tosses the lid back onto the table. âThese will be nice with the short summer dress hanging in the closet.â
âYou didnât.â My eyes bulge. âTell me you didnât.â
âI wonât lie to you, Pchelka, not even about something silly like a dress.â
I shove off the couch. âYouâre insane.â
Running down the hall to the bedroom, I hear his slow booted steps following behind me. The closet door is already open when I get there, so I throw the switch and step inside. The items I brought from home are still neatly folded in my overnight bag on the floor. But half of the closet that was bare yesterday is now full of dresses, slacks, blouses, skirts, jeans, and t-shirts. An entire fucking wardrobe is in here.
âYouâre insane!â I yell as I pull a hangar off the rod. Iâm not a complete fool. I can admire the beauty of this dark maroon dress with its three-quarter sleeves and full skirt. The wedges would go great with this dress too.
âThat one is for tonight.â He leans a shoulder against the door frame and folds his arms over his chest.
âI canât take these.â I glance down the long row of clothing. âI have clothes, Luka. I know they arenât as sophisticated as all this, but theyâre mine.â I shove the dress back onto the rod.
âThereâs nothing wrong with your clothing,â he says, bending down to pick up my overnight bag. âBut you didnât bring enough, and you deserve better. I know youâve been on your own since your grandmother passed away and money has been an issue. Itâs not now.â He opens my bag and grabs the two rolled up t-shirts I have left in the bag. âThese are fine for at home, or when you go to class, but tonight Iâm taking you out and you need something else.â He drops the shirts back in and drops the bag to the floor of the closet.
âIâm not taking these when you go back to Russia. Iâm not taking them.
