Cosette was doing better than she had thought she would in this strange world. Everything was so very different than everything she knew back home, and she'd been pretty overwhelmed by that and the language difference when she'd first arrived here. She'd managed to master English fairly quickly, but the technology was proving far more difficult than that. It wasn't just the phones - there were so many things to understand. The cars and the televisions, and the cooking devices...she could go on and on and still miss things.
But Monsieur Valdez said that he was very good with these things, that he almost spoke to the machines, so she hoped very much that he might be able to help her. He seemed kind, so she hoped he would also be patient and understanding with her lack of knowledge.
Arriving at the place by the river where they'd chosen to meet, she sat carefully on a bench as she waited for him to arrive.
