'Wakey, sleepyhead. It's morning already'.
I woke up to Irena's cheerful voice.
'Go away'. I grumbled.
'You aren't a morning person are you?'.
'Come on. We have to get ready for today'.
I opened my eyes to see her beautiful face smiling down at me.
She had black spots around her eyes, which made it obvious that she cried herself to sleep.
'Why?'.
'I heard that we're meeting the head of this place today'. She said looking excited.
I doubted if she'll be that happy if she knew how 'the head of the place'. Looked.
'haven't you seen her?'.
'No'. She frowned.
'But I did'.
'You did?'.
'Yes'.
'When?'.
'My first day here'.
'Uhm-- OK, but why is that? I didn't see her on my first day and I don't think the others did too'.
I shrugged. 'Maybe she was only around when I came, who did you guys meet then?'.
'Alina'.
'Oh, ok'.
We decided to take out bath together and we talked about our experience while climbing the tube down to this place.
'It was scary, I thought I was being taken to hell'.
'Then it shouldn't surprise you that that was what I also thought'.
She giggled.
'Oh my God, Roddy was with you wasn't he?'.
'Yeah, he was'.
'Awwn, he must have been so scared'.
'Not as much as I was'.
We finished bathing and decided to wear casual clothes.
I wore a black tee and blue jeans short while Irena wore a black strapless top and short blue jeans that looked like mine.
We both packed our hair in the same style, a rough bun at the center of our heads and moved down to the kitchen.
All heads turned our way as we entered and we both looked down, it was obvious we were not used to the attention but the attention soon drifted away as we sat and began eating.
'Good morning ladies'. Eleanor greeted.
'Morning'. We greeted and smiled.
'How was your night?'.
'It was great, thanks'.
She poured our tea and talked to us some more before going back deeper into the kitchen.
'When is she going to come?'. I asked after waiting for almost 1 hours sitting and looking at others busy flirting and throwing themselves seducing looks.
'I don't know'. Irena answered no longer bubbling with excitement at meeting 'her'.
'Hold on a minute, when we were talking back in the room ,you mentioned 'she' instead of 'he'.
I forgot to ask you but you made a mistake right? She's not a she'.
'She is'.
'Stop kidding'.
'I'm not'.
She was silent for a while then,
