Bob didn’t seem to realize that Dillan was feeling awkward. He hardly paid attention to her as they strode briskly towards the big building that housed their communal areas. When they arrived, he stopped to let some chattering girls pass, then held open the door for Dillan, acting the gentleman again. It was an automatic thing for him, being a nice guy.

"Thanks." Dillan said as she walked thru the door. She looked at her dirty covered fingernails, mumbling in Russian to herself. Oh the joys of being bilingual she thought to herself.

Bob recognized that it was Russian she spoke, but had no idea what she was saying, although he could guess since she was looking at her fingernails. He shut the door, then passed her to lead her to the cafeteria. “This is the mess hall. The bathrooms are over there,” he told her, pointing. “Showers included. There we have the laundry room.” He pointed at another doorway. “We keep spare clothing there, you may want to pick something up.”

Dillan nodded as Bob showed her everything. "Thank you. It's much appreciated." she said as she folded her hands in front of her and twiddled her thumbs. She felt so awkward being around others because she had been on her own so many years.

Bob felt his walkie talkie vibrate in his jacket pocket. “You’re welcome,” he replied absently as he pressed the button. He listened for a second, then hung up. “I have to go fetch the girls and their catches,” he told her. “Go ahead and take care of your needs. Feel free to ask anyone for help. Most people here are friendly.” He twisted on the spot and disappeared once more. He would have stuck around to help her more if he was off-duty, but his girls depended on him to get back to safety.

Dillan nodded and went to the laundry room to get some clothes. She decided that it would be better for her to shower and be clean before she got something to eat. She found a pair of jeans in her size, a green v neck tee and a white cami and a pair of sandals. She went and showered and then got dressed, smiling as she finished showering since it felt good to be clean
