The men soon departed for their assigned entertainment while the women were escorted to theirs. River’s face reflected her dour mood as she moved into the room clustered with the other women. Jo and Star obviously felt the same way from the look they gave her.
“I guess it is time to be the perfect little woman,” Jo muttered under her breath, looking around at all the ladies. Except for Madas, they hadn’t found any they could really relate to.
River let out a deep sigh as music began playing. It was some weird number they had never heard of, with unusual instruments playing. Star made a face before she put her finger in her mouth, mimicking being gagged.
River couldn’t contain her soft laugh. “You girls go circulate. Keep your eyes and ears open for anything that might be useful.”
