Chapter 19 Nine

It's a new month again, and the timing is coming to April.One Sunday morning, the unit was about to welcome nine new unwanted individuals, and I heard that one of them was going to live in Megan's room.When Dick and Henrietta arrived with the newcomer, I was sitting in my pajamas and dressing gown, drinking my morning coffee on the sofa in the saloon. The newcomer was very tall, with slender limbs, strong femininity in posture and movements, extremely pale skin, shoulder-length black and shiny hair, unbelievably rosy lips, and big piercing eyes.Henrietta helped her carry two suitcases, and Dick carried her heavy winter coat.I thought to myself, it must be very cold this April, or she thinks keeping out the cold is a big deal, or that coat is very important to her, because there is no need for a winter coat at work, she must know about it , which is specifically mentioned in the sourcebook.The double-breasted coat and heavy winter boots I brought here two months ago have been kept at the top of my closet and I haven't even thought about them until now.

As soon as Dick saw me, he introduced us to each other.The newcomer's name is Feifei.I stood up, tightened the belt of my nightgown, and walked up to shake her hand.Her hands were cold and a little clammy.I looked up at her face, which was terrified.I said: If you have any questions, or want to talk to someone, or just want to be alone, I'll be sitting here on the couch, or in my room, for the next few hours.Dolly is written on my door.Weg.You're welcome, don't think it will bother me, it won't. good.With a grunt she crossed the saloon with Dick and Henrietta, past the laundry room and kitchen, and disappeared down the corridor.

At the orientation party that night, I sat at the table with Fifi, Eric, and Alice.It's not the most ideal combination in the world.Feifei is very nervous, withdrawn, and quite frightened.Alice's eyes were foggy, her face was unshaven, her voice was low, her Adam's apple bounced up and down when she laughed.And if that wasn't enough, there's Eric, who is so devastated at the loss of Vanya that he doesn't talk much and can't eat.Eric sat there, either stammering or silent, poking food on his plate with utensils.Fortunately, Alice was in a happy mood as usual, exuding warmth and confidence, which made Feifei gradually relax.

After the dinner and show, I took Feifei to the bar to try the colorful, fruity-tasting, sweet-smelling special drinks with different little umbrellas.The bartender is new, only started last month, and he showed us his skills.I ordered a special banana garam drink, served in a cocktail glass called Green Banana. It tastes cold and is yellow-green in color. The small umbrella inserted on it has green and yellow stripes. Insert a slice of lime.This cup of special drink is very sweet and very refreshing. The refreshing feeling neutralizes the sweetness, and vice versa. It tastes quite delicious.Feifei ordered the Raspberry Rock, which is freshly squeezed orange juice mixed with raspberry juice and frozen raspberries, with red, blue, and orange umbrellas on top, and blue icing on the rim.

food coloring?I guess.Feifei tasted the icing sugar with the tip of her tongue and shook her head. It's blueberries.she says. She fell silent after saying this, sipping the drink slowly, a raspberry kept bumping against her upper lip.I didn't know what to say, so I just smiled at her, pretending to smooth out the wrinkles of the dress on my body.It was the first time I wore this dress after I arrived at work, and it made me feel elegant and sexy, but at the same time a little insecure about myself.So we stood there, Feifei feeling shy or scared or both, and I feeling less confident in my grooming and my volunteered support role.At this time Elsa appeared, she had just finished dancing, she was very happy, and she was sweating and said loudly:

Wow, what a beautiful drink!If there was alcohol in it, the night would be perfect! Unfortunately not.Feifei replied that she seemed to find Aisha very interesting. This was the first time I saw her smile. I introduced Aisha to Feifei, they shook hands and immediately chatted, as if they liked each other at first sight.I feel relieved.Aisha ordered a cup of dark night, unexpectedly, this special drink was really dark black, served in a tall and thin cup, with red and black striped straws inserted, and some red objects at the bottom, which may be candies.Aisha lowered her head, put the straw between her lips, and took a small sip carefully. Feifei and I stood on either side of her, waiting for Aisha's reaction.Elsa let go of the straw, swallowed her drink, and thought for a moment.

Not bad, she said: It's a bit weird, but it's delicious and worth recommending. Feifei put aside the half-drunk orange and raspberry special drink, and also ordered a glass of Dark Night.If Johannes hadn't pushed his way through the crowd towards us, I might have ordered a Dark Night too.Johannes gave Elsa and Fifi a friendly nod, then turned to me, took my hand and said: Dolly, you look so beautiful tonight.He bowed his head and kissed my hand. Am I honored to dance with you?he asked. I agreed.Without saying a word, we walked lightly to the dance floor. The orchestra played a lyrical rock song, and the lead singer opened his voice and sang.Johannes led the dance, and I followed him, the ruffles of my dress brushing my calves.He put his arm around my waist, and I put one hand on his shoulder and held his hand with the other.Our clasped hands form a point, like the prow of a ship, he is the port side and I am the starboard side.I close my eyes and he becomes Nils.
