The blonde woman then spoke, "Right you two on your feet and against the wall. Just as before." I went straight to the wall and stood very still just like Rose. Again, marks were made on the wall and then we had to step on the metal plates again. The blonde woman seemed very happy at the results but we weren't allowed to see them. Then she brought out a strange device. It was about the size of a standard dartboard and across the front of it was stretched a thin opaque plastic film. She then had the Assistant Cook run a cable from it to a display on the table only the blonde woman and Ms. Nora could see.

The blonde woman spoke, "Just a tiny little development test girls. Ever so simple." She continued, "I want each of you to stand up and hit the centre of the target with your fist as hard you can. Do it three times each, one after another." So perplexed Rose and I did. I don't what the result proved or what it was for but the blonde woman smiled broadly as she recorded the results. Ms. Nora simply snorted and laughed out loud and then spoke to the blonde woman, "Fucking brilliant. This is excellent." The blonde woman nodded, "See Nora...the programme is working." She then looked at us and placed the usual vitamins on the table. I threw them down my neck without even thinking and watched as Rose eventually did the same. I giggled at how clever Rose was to separate out the vitamins and take them in such a nice polite lady-like way.

I cast my eyes back down and fell totally silent and notice Rose sat up so nicely. I sat I waited.

I heard Ms. Nora speak, "Dido you little bitch, wipe that grin off your face or I'll fucking well do it." She smashed the 'Correction Rod' right into the table. "Any more of that and I'll personally thrash you." I went pale and trembled a little bit. I reached to squeeze Rose's hand but the blonde woman spoke, "Oh no Dido. No you don't." She grinned, "Tonight it's very simple. We're all going to have dinner. Master has some guests so don't fuck up. Best behaviour ladies." With that she led us into the huge main room and ordered us to sit in selected places at an expensively decorated table. Crystal glasses and silver cutlery shone and glittered. It was a wonderful spectacle but I couldn't fathom why Rose and I were there.

I sat still, feeling nervous and very much underdressed compared to the setting and Rose's stylish clothes.
