"I'm so glad we all had the time. It's an honour to work with you. I wouldn't want to do it with anyone else, you are more than my colleagues, you are my friends and already my family. I am......"

"Oh my God Marjorie! That's enough!", cried Autumn.

Charlotte and Sorscha nodded.

The manager turned her eyes. "Cheers!"
They all clinked glasses.

It was a Saturday night and the four of them had decided to go out. Now they were in a small bar. Sitting a little apart from the rest in a corner seat.

"Hey Charlie, in a scale of one to ten, how mad is Carly that she couldn't come?", asked Sorscha as she put her whiskey glass down again.

Charlotte exhaled loudly. "I don't want to read her last message ...."

Sorscha put her hand on her chin. "When is she going to be eighteen?"

She was looked at by everyone else. "Carly is our seventeen-year-old apprentice and that's the way it's going to stay," said Marjorie.

"What now?! Is she a vampire or what?" asked Sorscha in astonishment.

But Charlotte quickly intervened, "We'd best change the subject."

But Sorscha mumbled. "Now that I think about it. I've never seen her in the sunlight before... Maybe she glitters..."

"Autumn. Has Winter contacted you yet? He and Reece should be at the stadium by now.", Marjorie asked.

Autumn shook her head. "You know how much they love football. They must have switched off their mobile phones."

Some time passed. Until Marjorie got up to get another drink. She accidentally bumped into a man at the bar.

"Hello pretty lady. Here all alone?", he asked. He was tall, had a dark beard and dark hair.

"Oh no. It's girls' night out.", she said.

"Oh, so that's how it is. Hey Vincent! Come here!", the man called out. Another one approached. He was a little shorter. He wore big glasses and had no hair or beard.

"What's going on John?", He caught sight of Marjorie. "Oh, hello..."

But Marjorie raised her hand. "I don't think you got the message. It's girls' night. So no boys." With that, she tried to return to her seat with her wine glass. But John grabbed her arm.
"Hey why are you in such a hurry..."

Autumn was already looking at the whole situation. "Problems at twelve o'clock."

The two other women followed Autumn's gaze. They saw Marjorie arguing with a guy. He still had a firm grip on her arm. Suddenly she threw her wine in his face.

That was the cue. They jumped up and approached the whole thing

"Hey, what's going on here!", shouted Sorscha.

John rubbed the wine out of his eyes. "That crazy bitch attacked me!"

Autumn crossed her arms. "After you touched her. A justified reaction in my eyes..."

Vincent now stepped between them all. "Ok, I think that's enough."

Marjorie gestured towards the others. "What an arsehole. Now I have to paid twice for my trink.", she muttered.

The group of women were just about to leave. When John decided without further ado to slap Autumn on the bum.

She stopped abruptly. John just laughed dirty. "If you like that baby, then come to me."
