The Beginning 3

As she returned to her hostel she saw her roommantes Penelope and Maria talking to each other and saw Cheryl busy talking on phone. Amaryllis went to her cupboard and took out her home clothes and started walking towards the bathroom area at the end of the corridor. She freshened herself and was back to her room when they announced its time for dinner. She stared at her roommates and Penelope spoke that its better if we roomamtes all stick together. All of them agreed. All of them took their plates and went to the mess. When they reached the mess it was almost full. They somehow spotted a space where all of them could fit. They all sat in that place and looked around. They were sharing the table with other people and all of them passed a normal smile.

As the time went by the mess area was crowded, some were standing inside the mess area, some were standing outside the mess area. All mess workers were gathered there along with mess warden. The mess warden took the mike and for making the announcements. She greeted the crowd and startred telling the rules to be followed in the mess. After around twenty minutes she said the food can be served and asked all the girls to maintain discipline and decorum of the mess.

Since the line was long it took some time for Amaryllis and her roommates' turn to come. Amaryllis saw the food in her plate and stared at it for some time. It was her first time eating something like that for the dinner. It was something very foreign. But she somehow ate it. The dishes served were infact something that Amaryllis would eat in the morning as breakfast.
