1, Fall, Year 515 Annabel was in a hurry. Why, you would ask. Well, while she wasn't late yet for work, she would, if not managing to get there in next few chims. Her legs moved swiftly through the crowd, avoiding bumping into people. She had no time to be stalled in any way, because even if her employer was quite understanding woman, Annabel had no desire to show herself badly so early in work. It had been only 30 days, not more, when the girl started to work in Elegant Weave, one of Syliras best garment and cloth shop. It was thanks to this exact shop that the young girl in her early age without magic picked up also sewing. Though it would never come into Anna`s mind that one day she too will work in this fine establishment. When applying for job position, telling the truth, the girl waited for polite, but firm rejection. In that place Annabel was asked to have a interview with Navia Druva, the owner of the store and it ended in her getting the job. She stepped on some poor souls foot, quickly apologized while running further, and attempted to take a short cut. If not because of being a native in this city the Erobern girl wouldn't manage getting through the cities usual flow of people, but years in here had given her some lessons. Few more crushed feet and bumped people before Anna finally reached the doors of the shop in which the girl was working. Few long breaths, a wide smile and the girl was in. As always, the shop sent out a vibe of elegance and high class. Colorful clothing, pieces of expensive fabric and only the best of sewing utensils, they all were neatly stacked in their places, easily to be seen, but not meant to be touched. With her smile still on Anna made her greetings with few regular customers, people that simply knew her, relieved smiled at a college which was assisting a old lady and then was out in the back of the store. There she bumped with another quite young which was collecting bunch of dropped spools on the ground. "Clarisa! No, let me help!" Annabel bent down to help the black haired girl. While the youngest of Eroberns looked older for her age the girl next to her seemed to be just a child. This girl then, with her red cheeks on almost paperwhite skin, smiled. "Thanks Anna! You were almost late, weren't you? Your cheeks are red and your hair looks like they have gone through hurricane." She laughed, picking up the last spool and taking those Annabel had picked. "Thanks! Now you should better be going! Mrs Navia was looking for you five chims ago." Anna quickly nodded, already hurrying in the direction of the orangery. The girls fingers were nimbly going through her hair, though annoying stiffness could be still felt from the time, when the black wolf had decided to try taking a piece of her for himself. |
