Once upon a time a young girl Marigold came to her grandmother and asked:
- Granny, tell me, please, who are those Russian women everybody speak about?
- Well, you know, Russian women are the most beautiful women, you've ever met, they are all have blond hair and blue eyes and all of them are waiting for their handsome rich princes who come and save them from this dangerous and difficult life, - answered grandmother.
- And where do they usually come from? - Marigold asked again.
- Hm-m, they come from distant lands on big war-horses with swords and shields.
- And how long should they wait for their princes?
- Sometimes they patiently expect them all their life, sometimes they are disappointed and have to marry someone else and forget about their dreams. But when they grow old they remember about it and smile quietly: how stupid they were in their youth!!
- Granny, aren't you speaking about yourself, your eyes look sadly?
- Oh, - soughed old woman, - when I was young I was a real Russian woman, but I didn't want to be a patient person of such kind. That's why I decided to look for my prince myself. I took my black horse and went ahead to meet my happiness. On the meadow in the forest I saw a handsome knight sleeping under the big oak. I came to him and said: "Hello, my prince, It's me you are looking for, I'm your princess, merry me immediately!!" Then he said to me, that he had never met the Russian woman like me before and from this moment I was not a Russian woman anymore, I was a princess of the New World, and you are, my darling, a princess, too.
- Wow! Now I can take my magic wand and bewitch all my friends to make them Russian women and force them sit by the window and wait for their princes all their lives.
