She held her waist as she sat down beside me. Then, she ordered a glass of hot milk while folding her collar which she hadpulled up due to the cold.
Her hands were red from being out in the cold. After the waiter served the mug of hot milk, she quickly held onto it to warm upher hands.

She raised her eyebrows and said monotonously, "I can tell that Hendrix has protected you very well." | looked downwards as aresponse. The press was still very persistent and the bodyguards Hendrix arranged for me were still secretly tailing me.
