'Dial 255 if you need anything'. Fritz beamed at us. 'You may want your frocks pressed or your shoes polished'. He left our coupe, weighed down not only by his moustache but also by ten pairs of shoes.
We beamed too, sitting in our wood paneled coupe, sipping champagne and popping caviar into our mouths, the world whizzing by.Gazing out of train windows makes one feel poetic. And a little melancholy. One of us was getting over the death of a dear friend. The other, a broken heart. The bottle seemed to finish itself quite quickly, and to get rid of any further feelings of melancholia, we decided to order another.
My partner was nowhere to be seen, so I luxuriated in the bath. On a train. With the world whizzing by.
And then I just had to do it.
255
I needed someone to scrub my back, help me with my zipper and advise me on which dress looked better. Fritz beamed as he helped me. Pre dinner drinks with the foreigners. Delightful. My friend had found a fellow foodie cum academic cum very gorgeous in a suit American guy to hang out with. I chatted to John.
Of course, nothing makes a man more gorgeous than me having had too much to drink.
I woke up with a small headache, the world still whizzing by, and no underwear.
255
