Preparing for the banquet

"It's at Giorgio's on Duke of Gloucester Street at 8 o'clock," Anaya continued, "be there 15 minutes early."

"Okay, thanks!" Jessica retreated to the room to get dressed. She was a bit skeptical of what the dress code would be for her, but didn't want to ask Anaya to confirm her worst fears.

After a couple of minutes, Jessica emerged fully clothed and escorted the family out of the house, thanking them again for their generosity. On one hand, she didn't want to invite her parents in case she would have to be naked, but on the other she just had to show them who had saved them from their financial woes. Same with the previous resident and his family. So, she called all of them and told them to be at Giorgio's at 8.

Out of an abundance of caution, Jessica arrived at Giorgio's even earlier than expected, walking in at 7:40. As she was meeting the family, she was fully dressed in the clothes she was supposed to be wearing earlier that day, a sharp skirt suit with stockings and a bright blue blazer.

"Ah, Kabir," she reached out and shook his hand, "nice establishment you have here, great restaurant I've heard!"
