Russian,[color=darkred]"Thank you, [b]Wolfgang[/b],"[/color] says [b]Elena[/b]. [color=darkred]"For everything. I'd like to get dressed now, and then I'll take breakfast in the Lounge Car. You can join me there later if you wish."[/color]

Russian,"Of course, my apologies. I will see you when I can."

Wolfgang rises and leaves the compartment.

Elena uses the toilet, puts on her makeup, and gets dressed, donning a little black dress designed by Coco Chanel that she had picked up in Paris. When she is done, she picks up her handbag and slings it over her shoulder. She keeps the journal and dictionaries deep inside it, as she does not want others to see them, but she carries the book she borrowed from Mr. Roby in her hand. She can safely read that in the Lounge Car while she eats, and she is curious about its contents. Then she steps out into the corridor.
