The Guests

"Allow me to introduce myself, I'm Sofia and this is my husband, Adam," Helena said, smiling formally at the maid.

The maid stood there, staring at Helena stiffly.

Then, the older woman nudged the maid's shoulder and apologized to Helena, "Sorry, she tends to say rude things." The old woman glared at her maid and instructed her to do as she was told. "I'm Rebecca, and this is my maid, Sarah."

"I'm sorry, Miss! I-I just remembered my sister … named Sofia," the waiter said, clearly not skilled at acting. "I apologize if I was impolite."

"Oh, it's not a big deal!" Ethan tried to lighten the mood. He then checked on Helena, afraid she might get injured again.

"Enough, Adam, I'm fine. You don't have to fuss," Helena scolded him firmly. She tried to remember their fake names carefully.

"How about I treat you to dinners as my way of apologizing?" the old woman suggested to Helena.
