"Would you like to become one with Russia?" Ivan politely asked. "I'm sorry, but do you mean as like being friends?"

Anya was the first person to figure out what Ivan meant the whole time. "Why of course, my dear sunflower." Anya thought for a minute before she found her answer, "Sure, I would love to become your friend."

Ivan was very amazed to see that a person just accepted to become friends after he just saved her. Ivan and Anya eventually started to see each other daily, which was acceptable for them so Ivan would never be lonely and Anya would never feel secluded.
