A New Beginning in London

On October 12, Milena arrives at the bank at 09:00 for her appointment. She has the documents to open the current account.

The clerk says the initial deposit is 50 pounds. Milena pays the fee and receives the debit card for the account.

Outside, the weather is rainy due to the heavy storm. There is a roadworks sign near the station blocking the main path.

Milena walks to the pub at 18:00 to meet Helga. She remembers the custom of ordering at the bar, not the table.

The pub is full because of the match. Helga suggests they find a seat near the window.

Milena asks Helga if she wants a drink. Helga replies that she would like a pint of the local ale.

They discuss the town life while sipping their drinks. A loud announcement says the last train leaves at 23:45 tonight.

Milena explains that she feels nervous about the city. Helga tells her that the British culture is very polite and helpful.

They finish their drinks and leave the pub. It is time for Milena to go to the doctor appointment on October 13 at 10:30.

Milena feels ready for her new life. She checks the platform number 4 for her train home.
