Henry was not sitting alone for long. However it was not Alicia and Alex who sat down at the seats beside him but two other bar patrons. Henry was very relieved to see it was the two girls he had been dancing with who approached rather than any of the males in the room.
‘Hi you were great. Rachel isn’t it. We met before. I’m Kailani from the resort shop. Don’t try and speak’
Henry was amazed he had not recognised her before. She was a memorable looking girl. Henry nodded and gave a smile of recognition.
‘This is my sister Leiko, We thought we would just say hello. You’re a great dancer and since your friends have left we thought we would keep you company before the guys descend on you’
Henry found himself blushing. It just felt natural to dance in his current body. However it was awkward that he couldn’t talk. One word and with his male voice he would be exposed. He tried to shrug his shoulders as if to say "I don't know where they have gone" It did not seem as if Kailani understood. Instead Henry could only sit there smiling and nodding as Kailani, explained to her sister about what she knew of ‘Rachel’.
Of Alicia and Alex there was still no sign. Perhaps there was quite a queue at the ladies toilet. Henry in his Rachel guise had learnt that females took a lot longer to go to the toilet. Quite possibly she was just fixing her hair or make-up.
