Getter
I kept myself fed by dancing on bar tables and bearing my breasts at oil shale miners for two years. When I grew tired of that, I gradually made my way to Russia. I worked a few menial jobs, until I served in the Army for seven amazing years. That’s where I met and fell in love with Mikhail. My past caught up with me. I was exposed as a whore and the daughter of an alcoholic Estonian separatist. I was forced to resign and lost my pension.
