Liadine received a few jokes and critical looks in response to her demanding questions as to where to locate a garage. They said it was easier to trap flies with honey than with vinegar, but she didn't understand the root of the expression, preferring instead to behave demeaningly and haughtily, digging her hole with aplomb. There were those who even knew what she was referencing, but her attitude failed her. Fortunately the power came on halfway through her trek across the city and she was back at some internet cafe, "requesting" some young, pretty boy to help her use...Giggle. Goggle? Gurgle. And then she was off with directions. Which didn't help really because what the heck was a Marpole? In the end what should have taken forty-five minutes took Lia five times that and she arrived at Mohini Jaswal's Garage in the hours of late afternoon as the sun was already beginning its descent. Somewhere mixed in her indelible pride was a sense of her own foolishness, but she flipped her wild blonde locks over her shoulder, huffed, and stormed inside, demanding to speak to the woman who fronted the auto mechanic shop. She saw others of her own kind, recognized them immediately, but stood there with her hands on her hips as if she was already a far more worldly, intelligent creature than these lazy, indolent blobs. |
