<div style="text-align: justify;">Alexia smiled and nodded when Hanz-Eren said she would learn in time. She was expected to, after all. It was for that reason, and that reason alone, that she had gone to East Berlin and was taking her steps to get closer to the man sitting close to her. Alexia knew it wouldn't be an easy mission, but she trusted her ability to pull it, given enough time.<br/><br/>Enjoying the meal herself, Alexia took a sip of the wine and considered her own situation. It wasn't easy to think of things the way they were when she had left London. Back in London, she hadn't seen herself with an attractive man. One she was having a very hard time resisting.<br/><br/>When Hanz-Eren looked at her and smiled, Alexia smiled back. Her delicate fingers touched his gently. "That sounds like a deep question", she replied. "I have yet to know what kind of woman I am". Taking a moment, Alexia really thought about the question. "I think I am a simple one. Honest, sincere whenever possible without hurting anyone, and usually kind". She paused again to think of what to say of her hobbies. "My hobbies are quiet ones. Reading, listening to music, taking a quiet walk..." Alexia smiled. "I am afraid I have the makings of a loner".<br/><br/>His last question was a more serious one. Alexia thought a little longer before answering it. "Company, a different setting, better opportunities than in my small town". Alexia sighed, and what she said afterwards was 100% true. "I had to leave. After mother's passing, that small house seemed as big as the world".</div>
