Mom met her on the mobile, and they quickly drove home. Valentina did not look very good: circles under her eyes, nervous movements. Alina immediately realized that a difficult conversation lay ahead.Dasha, according to her mother, was at home and was waiting for Alina. She really wanted to know everything: about the college and about the capital. Alina left her things in the room and decided to immediately go down to the kitchen. Drink tea, as suggested by my mother, and talk.- Mom, let's first tell you why you are so nervous and where the circles under your eyes come from. Are you sleeping badly?Dasha went to school this week. Every day comes and says that today is worse than yesterday. Alina, she is being bullied there. I talked with the teacher and with the director, they will not be able to help, - and there was so much bitterness in the words. “We have a coeducational school. There are classes mixed with werewolves. So they incite the rest, and spread all sorts of nasty thing
Alina described in detail everything that she managed to do in the capital. Dasha immediately took the information about the college, but at the request of her mother, she did not watch yet, but listened attentively to Alina.They also discussed a possible part-time job for their older sister. And here Alina's mother opened her eyes to many things. It all started with a conversation about a part-time job in a jewelry store.“Alina, you will be very lucky if you are hired as a sales assistant in a place like this. I'm surprised you didn't get rejected right away. But for the first three months, you will be there more like a salesman's apprentice than an assistant. You will need to be taught a lot. Spend a lot of time on you. Therefore, you will receive very little at first. Are you ready to work practically for free for several months?— I want to work with stones and jewelry, so I will calmly wait three months.Not three months, but more. At first you will be a student, then you will
Dasha planned to collect things, for which she decided to order various boxes at home. Mom had a possible meeting with the director and a trip to the real estate office.Alina herself was going to help Dasha with the collection and go to the center, looking after decent clothes for work. It was also possible to buy in the capital, but things of the same quality cost almost twice as much there. And Alina hasn't even earned anything yet. She has only been spending. And I wanted to keep costs down.The former Alina did not have suits and the rest for work, her clothes were divided into everyday and going out.Dasha has already told Alina that she loved to dress smartly. And being the wife of the head of the clan, she could afford it. The former Alina loved parties, going to events, to premieres. But it was with her husband, without him she did not go anywhere, she had such an upbringing. Due to a good education, Alina had something to talk about, she knew how to behave in society, since
The werewolves that were going to kidnap them froze and stared at her. They clearly weren't ready for what she did. Alina saw that the guards were already running towards them, and from the side of the cafe a waiter was walking along with a respectable man.Dasha immediately rushed towards the guards. One of the werewolves wanted to block her path, but stepped back, listening to the elder's shout.The man who approached them from the cafe turned to her, obviously holding back his indignation:"Girl, what happened to you?" The waiter who is in charge of the open area of the cafe said that you brushed all the dishes off the table. What happened?Alina moved closer to the man, took him by the elbow, although she understood that she was overstepping the bounds. Yes, only she was scared and she was not going to unhook as long as dangerous werewolves were nearby.She replied in a slightly shaky voice.“Those werewolves were going to take us by force. I was so freaked out! But the idea occ
Dasha just burst into the house and said:- I'll go upstairs, leave the bags, change clothes and go down. Let's talk in the kitchen, - "jumped" up the stairs to her room.Alina herself decided to leave the packages already in her room and drink tea in order to calm down and discuss their common actions in the light of recent events. She was really scared by the meeting with the werewolves in the cafe. It’s good that mom wasn’t there yet, otherwise the look and condition of both daughters would have frightened her greatly.Dasha quickly went downstairs and began to make tea herself. Alina came when the youngest was already pouring it into mugs. She perfectly saw that Dasha had not yet cooled down, her fingers were trembling a little.- Brewed with thyme, we both need to calm down.They drank half a mug in silence, when Alina decided to speak:- Mom needs to tell everything without hiding, she also needs to take care. And she, as the eldest, must understand exactly that it is dangerous
Stefan met them at the station. Alina called him in advance to find out if it was possible to rent a house in the suburbs while looking for permanent housing. But he replied that in the summer there are many visitors to the capital and it was necessary to think about this even when Alina was in the capital.So Alina booked rooms in the same hotel where she lived before. A big plus was the adequate price and location almost in the city center.Stefan insisted that he would meet them. At the same time, she will meet Alina's mother, because it is she who will choose the place of residence and the house itself. And it’s better not to delay the choice of a house, since the prices in the capital are high for everything, including hotels.Dasha, due to her age, could neither go to the municipality nor look for a job. So she will do all this with her mother, her legal representative.And Alina at this time will go to an evening school and check whether all the documents are enough, and also c
Alina stood in front of the mirror and admired herself. She had her hair freshened up. Made strands of different lengths, making it a little easier. She had thick, long hair. And Alina got a little tired of the weight. Therefore, the decision to slightly shorten and give them a more well-groomed appearance pleased Alina. Appearance was a five-plus. She couldn't look at herself. Although she put on a pencil skirt and a beautiful blouse with a puffy collar. Heeled shoes and discreet accessories completed the look for a business meeting.Given that the meeting will be with a person of the older generation, Alina took into account the length of the skirt and the image of a young business girl pleased her.The choice of clothes and an open smile played in her favor from the very first minutes of communication with master Abraham.David met her at the counter:— Good afternoon, Alina. Now I will find out where it will be convenient for the master to talk to you.Alina greeted and nodded wit
So Alina began to study with David in a day. In the morning, she managed to devote time to her family, go with her mother to the screenings with Stefan, with whom she resumed communication. Life began to enter into a calm channel.Very soon, Daria also pleased, who managed to find a part-time job in the city, from which she was delighted. During dinner, she could not calm down, talking about the bridal salon itself, about the dresses and accessories that they showed her, about fashion designers and dressmakers, about the owners, about the married couple, to whom the employees “sang praises”.Dasha took with her to a meeting with potential employers her albums with sketches of outfits, images of brides, her album with hairstyles, which she did to her girlfriends and photographed. And it worked. It was because she showed her interest that they took her.Of course, a provincial teenage girl could not compete with the capital's craftswomen, but she showed what she was interested in, she h
