So, | simply continued. “The food is set up along here” | pointed to the serving area, before pointing to the area
where the drinks are. “And drinks there. You simply line up, wait to be served, or help yourself if no omegas are
there to help. “Okay. Thanks.” She nods atwith a polite smile. So, if you would like to grab yourself some

coffee machines are located, desperately in need of another coffee, despite the fact | had already had multiple
