The negotiations

Martha seemed ecstatic while picking the right kind of outfit for me to wear. Unlike me, she wasn't bothered by the fact that no one knew who asked me to sit by the negotiation table. I was still bewildered by the news while Martha's colleague brought me breakfast, put it on the table while grinning and showing me the thumbs-up, and then left my room as quickly as she appeared in it. I felt as if she and Martha were cheering for me, as if I was about to save the world or something.

I replied with a forced, smiley-grimace while trying to drag myself to the bathroom. Hurried by Martha, I took the shortest shower ever, which mainly consisted of draining cold water onto my body, hoping it would allow my brain to function as it should. After wrapping myself with a towel, I washed my face and applied every skincare product I had, praying that it would make me look less zombie-like.

"The food is getting cold." Martha clicked her tongue, observing my slow movements.

Actually I never noticed any spelling mistakes except in the last few chapters and they were simple spelling errors. But I am enjoying the book so far. I just wish the new chapters could come a bit faster than I read....
