However, I wasn’t alone for long.
Night fell quickly over the pack, and soon after Estrella left the room, I heard a knock on the door.
“Miss Rosalie, can we come in?”
It was Mrs. White again, with two other young girls.
“Of course, please!” I replied politely. I was still not used to being served.
One of the younger girls placed some salad in front of me. The doctor’s order had to be followed, so I started eating while watching the rest of the group working on my room. Like last time, they lit the candles, ran the hot water, and added flower petals.
Mrs. White noticed that I had put down my plate, so she walked over to help me get into the bath
“I… may I do it myself?” I asked Mrs. White with as much courage as I could muster.
“Miss Rosalie, it’s our job to prepare you…”
“I insist. Please?”
I wanted to do this on my own. It just didn’t feel right having other women get me ready to lose my virginity.
