First day (3)

"Am I a robot?" Nida blurted out in disbelief, but then she covered her mouth after saying that out loud.

Fortunately, Elise was not offended, but instead she was smiling kindly, like how a loving grandma would smile.

"I am sorry! I was just surprised. Why so sudden?"

Nida thought that a turn-over process would take at least a month. She was baffled that she needed to become familiar with everything in just one single day.

"It is for a personal reason. I am sorry to trouble you like this." The old lady slightly bows her head toward Nida.

"Err. No. no. I am just worried if it is enough for me to learn everything in one single day."

"Oh! I am only going to teach you the basics, but Sir Robert will teach you the rest."

Nida breathed a sigh of relief. She thought she was doomed from the start.

Unlike her fears, the first half of her first day went well. Elise is good at teaching her and is very kind and nice to talk with.
