We…got along. While I may not have loved her (and now that I think about it, I doubt she loved me that much either), I certainly didn’t not like her. We lived together, I went to work, came home, she’d fix dinner, we’d talk about nothing, and go to bed together. When needs be I can have normal relations with someone of similar age. I enjoyed the time we had together, but I wasn’t the least bit surprised or dismayed when she introduced the Austrian man she had been seeing for two years and announced that she wanted a divorce.
It wasn’t at all bitter and all parties involved got what we wanted. I had been thinking of leaving her for some time and she was obviously happier with her Mr. Edelstein. As she was already pregnant with the Austrian’s child (believe me, we had not been together long enough for me to know it was not mine), I let her and her beau keep the house. I am not heartless.
Besides, I knew that my darling little sister Natalya, Natasha, Tasha would be more than glad to take me in. She had adored me during childhood and since her Lithuanian husband had recently passed on (hit by a drunk driver while on a walk), leaving her with a daughter (a bright, angelic, seraphic nymphet of a daughter…), she would likely be very lonely.

Ivan really does sound crazed underneath his placid, purpley words, and you're managing to keep the style at least passably in line with the original book without making it a cookie-cutter rehash. So I do want to see this continued, anon!

You really think I made Ivan sound crazy? Thank you! I was having trouble with that! If it weren't for the thesaurus, I couldn't do the prose, but it wouldn't be a proper Lolita story without it. My OCD self just can't pick the logest prettiest synonym, I have to pick the one that fits just right and it takes a long time and...
Ahem, sorry. Thank you!

I usually hate first-person style in fanfiction because it's so easy to do wrong, but I'm glad I decided to read this anyway because you're doing pretty well.
