dressing up
Allie made her way to her quarters. The Ashley girl
had finally shown up and Allie had given her back her
console with a stern word or two.
"Listen, don't you have any sense of duty?" Allie
asked the girl.
Ashley looked up at Allie from her seat. She wore a
blank expression.
Allie leant in close. "If I have to fill in for you
again, for any reason or amount of time, consider it
the end of your career.Understand?"
Ashley's eyes went wide. She nodded vigorously.
Allie smiled, pulling away. "Good."
"Pardon me," some big guy grumbled as him and two
other men dragging a fourth smaller man pushed past
her.
Allie entered her quarters and shut the doors. She
mumbled something unintelligible about the living, and
went over to the mirror.
She pushed a few buttons on her control belt, and
the green outfit she had bought earlier replaced the
khaki uniform she had been wearing. She actually
smiled. It did look good on her. She twisted and
examined herself.
"Yes, very nice," she whispered. The only down side
was she couldn't take off her control belt.
She pressed a few more buttons on her control panel,
and it went invisible.
"Much better."
She tried on the red and white outfits, and they
pleased her just as much. "I look way too good not to
show this off."
