If someone were to ask Ostensia how she liked Greece so far, it would be hard for her to lie and say that she was really enjoying it, because she wasn't. Osa hated this place with a passion. The only reason she was here right now was because Collineus made her come to take a look at some of his supposed competition in neighboring countries. Personally Ostensia failed to see how they were considered competition at all. For starters, they were a thousands times more rude than Collineus was, and that was no easy milestone to hit. At least Collineus called her by her name instead of 'girl'. Ostensia also had to give Collineus credit for his choice in food, because the men here seemed to enjoying feasting on cute little baby sheep and it was completely inhumane for people to enjoying eating anything too young to defend itself in Ostensia's opinion. "But of course when I told Collineus this he yelled at me for not assessing their business style instead of those things." Her uncle probably regretting hiring her by this point. Ostensia had no business sense whatsoever. Every time he tried to get her to do something like this she messed it up. Ostensia figured that sooner or later she would be fired for it too. Not that it would bother her too much. The only reason she took the job was to help get her mind off of Damian, which it did, somewhat. Ostensia still thought about Damian a lot. It was hard to deny that she still cared for him when it seemed like every little thing reminded her of him. Ostensia was determined to move on though.
Although it was night, and Ostensia promised herself that she would try to avoid bars at night, her throat was killing her right now, so she decided to break her promise this one time. This place didn't look too bad either, it wasn't too crowded or dirty so maybe it wasn't going to be as bad most bars seemed to be. Ostensia would give it some time before she decided to base a real opinion on it though. Ostensia approached the counter and ordered an iced tea. Ostensia didn't drink alcohol either, so it made it that much easier for her to avoid these types of places. Luckily the man at the counter didn't question her for ordering such a plain drink in a place like this, and gave it to her without a single word uttered between them. Ostensia paid the man some money and turned away from him with her iced tea in hand. Hopefully soon she could leave Greece and go back home to Italy. Ostensia no longer considered New Zealand home. It still hurt her too much to think of all the memories she had there. Ostensia eyed a stool a couple of feet away that was close to one of the windows and decided that this would be the perfect sitting spot for her. Ostensia walked over and tried to sit on it as quickly as she could, but she failed to see someone planning on the same thing, Softly, her body collided with another and Ostensia recoiled. "Oh..sorry-wh-Professor Zhefarovich?" Ostensia was in the midst of an apology when she finally recognized the man to be her former Muggle Studies Professor. He had been a Professor at Hogwarts since Ostensia started up until her fifth year. Ostensia even remember taking his class! All of a sudden the awkwardness of the situation began to take over, and Ostensia found herself turning as red as a strawberry.
