Papitas De Senkata Group
The loan they will take out will benefit small micro-businesses, such as Cecilia's. She says that the first time she came to Pro Mujer, she was joining at the invitation of her friends who are members of the group. Now she has a business weaving and selling skirts. We have come to understand that she learned this business when she used to help her mother with the family business. Later, she decided to start her own business, and now she works with her daughters, and she is teaching them the same trade.
The loan that she is now taking out is to increase capital to purchase wool, which she will purchase from wholesale stores in the city of La Paz and later make to sell by order. This type of work allows her to generate revenue to support her family because she is married and has five children.
When asked what she likes about Pro Mujer, she responded that she likes the loan, saving, and the health program.
The group is accompanied by the daughter of one of the members; she is dressed in black (in the photo).
El crédito que sacaran beneficiara a pequeñas microempresarias donde la señora Cecilia es integrante, ella indica que es la primera vez que integra Pro Mujer, ingresando por la invitación de sus amigas de grupo que son socias. En la actualidad ella tiene un negocio de tejido y venta de enaguas; da a conocer que este negocio lo aprendió cuando ayudaba a su madre al negocio familiar posteriormente decide establecer su negocio independiente y en la actualidad trabaja con sus hijas a quienes también enseñó el mismo oficio.
El crédito que ahora sacará es para el aumento de capital (compra de lana) que adquirirá de las tiendas mayoristas de la ciudad de La Paz y posteriormente ala elaboración lo comercializará a pedido. Esta forma de trabajo le permite generar recursos para mantener a su familia ya que ella vive en unión libre y tiene cinco hijos.
Cuando se le consulta qué le gusta de Pro Mujer, ella responde que le gusta el crédito, ahorro y el área de salud.
Al grupo acompaña la hija de una de las integrantes ella esta vcestida de negro.
Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

"Peshawar is the capital of the..." Peshawar Favorite Tip by filipdebont
Peshawar Favorites: 15 reviews and 13 photos
Favorite thing: Peshawar is the capital of the North Western Frontier Province (NWFP), Peshawar is a very exotic city, and it has preserved the traditional atmosphere and retained its air of Arabian Nights.
The most exciting part of Peshawar is the old city,
Visiting the bazaar, which is as big as a whole quarter, is a true experience. I'm not sure , but there must be hundreds of small shops. It is
like a labyrinth of small streets and colourful bazaars, a mosaic of merchants, travellers, Phanthans and Afghans. The shops who offer the same
stuff can - in a typical Asian style - all be found together. (this picture is made at Chowk Yadgar, the central square in the old city, as you can see, a very busy place)

Very nice restaurant!Posted on 09 / 10 / 2011
I always like to support veggie/vegan friendly places especially here in mid- Michigan where they are few and far between! Zarzuela's had friendly service, great local beers and a nice selection of very tasty vegan food! Nice live music too! All and all, a fun evening!

My buddy and partner in crime, Maureen Leland, has written an article to explain the use of View Controls within Workplace Designer. We have a little thing going where she tries to use her puppies in all the demos we do together, and I resist, usually to no avail, but sometimes. It looks like the pendulum has swung away from my boring tasklist component demo to the Iris Kennel Club demo, first made famous in a Domino Designer talk.
f you don't care about any of that, just read the article and learn about how views are handled in Workplace Designer.
Building Views in Workplace Designer 2.6
Build views in IBM Workplace Designer 2.6 that provide a rich set offunctions to display documents. Combined with familiar renderingoptions, such as categorization, image columns, and more, these viewsoffer you flexible and powerful ways to collect, to display, and tomanipulate data.
And, these are due to become even more powerful in the release we are currently working on, including a reusable View Query (the 'what documents and columns do I want' part of the view) and use of relational queries with a View Control. But, more on that later.

Community meeting to discuss Salem vision-
Community activists will meet 6:30 on Friday, October 18 at Salem's Grand Theater to discuss new ways Salem is developing and changing. Topics will include a possible expansion of Riverfront Park, Pringle Creek and the prospective $65 Million transformation of City Hall.
"There have been no public hearings on these proposals," says citizen's advocate, Richard Reid, who hopes the meeting will stir interest and involvement.
The organizers say the City of Salem has excluded citizens from decisions on matters like these, such as the recent proposed apartment complex near Riverfront Park, whose only access would have been the cramped roadway to the Riverfront Park Carousel.
These organizers say the meeting will allow citizens the chance to "discuss these issues so we can tell City Council what we think."
One Comment
The Salem Community Vision meeting on October 18 was a success. About 50 people turned out to hear a presentation and to voice their concerns about the proposal to build a new Police station and upgrade the Civic Center. In general the audience members were supportive of making the City buildings safe for staff and visitors. They were not so keen on the idea of spending money on a new Police building, however. Most support the idea of doing the seismic upgrades now and then look for an existing building to convert for the police. In any event the group is now forming themselves into a formal group to continue to work on openness at City Hall. Anyone interested in learning more about the group can send an e-mail to email@example.com, or they can find them on Facebook to follow their activities.

Let's see what these TV stars share...
Rohit Bharadwaj, Yudhishthir of Mahabharat - One should think about asthma patients or people who have heart problem. Noise pollution and environment pollution has increased too much these days. It should be avoided. We need a pollution free city and country.
Rajan Shahi, Producer Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai- We should keep the purity and bliss of diwali alive around by keeping the environment smoke free. It really pollutes the environment so one must have an eco friendly diwali.
Yash Patnaik, Producer Veera - Deepavali is the Festival of Lights, not Sound. It's a celebration of good against evil. Let's be good and celebrate the festival of lights. It should be a pollution free festival as crackers create a lot of smoke. Crackers should be avoided as far as possible.
Shashank Vyas, Jagya of Balika Vadhu - I don't like crackers as bursting cracker is a waste of money and it creates noise pollution. It will be the best to donate the money spent on crackers to a needy person. There are people who don't even have food to eat.
Delnaaz Irani, Dilshad of Kehta Hai Dil... Jee Le Zara- I believe in an eco-friendly Diwali. Why waste time on crackers? So many accidents happens because of crackers and it causes noise pollution as well. Only kids should burn crackers if at all and that too not dangerous ones but small regular ones.
Sachin Parikh, Vinayak of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon... Ek Baar Phir- We must believe in an eco-friendly diwali. The crackers not only create pollution they also disturb our peace and that of the animals too. Dangerous cracker burning should be banned and only small ones should be used.

I wish it was a good course because I live so close to it, but it's just terrible. Every hole is in the middle of a field, and you can't even tell which baskets go with which hole. Overall I have nothing good at all to say about this course.
+0 votes Scott Horrisberger › May 26, 2015
No tee locations. Good for beginners with several long drives. There has been some vandalism to signs. Baskets in acceptable condition. Tons of parking to immediate left on entry. Add another 9 holes likes these and concrete tees and it would be much improved.

But teams won't have to look too far outside of the first round of the 2015 NHL Draft to find the next wave of U.S. talent pushing for playing time in the NHL. Read more»

I've been reading some posts around, but never found the answer I was looking for. I am going for a weekend trip, just a few days, about 160-200 miles, camping over night, and I was wondering if I could get advice about kid trailers; I'm wondering if I could use one of those to haul my gear instead of buying a full out trailer, for a few reasons.
1. The kid trailer holds about 100 pounds, where as most trailers that are under 400 bucks only old like 75.
2. I can get a used kid trailer for about 50 bucks of CL.
The biggest thing I'm worried about is fitting my tent and bigger objects in the trailer.
Does anyone have experience with this? Some advice to lend?
Also, aside from short trips on the bike, I'd be using the trailer for everyday stuff, grocery shopping, etc.

Gaston County is winding down from being abuzz with Halloween activities, fall festivals and events showcasing fun attractions including hayrides and musical performances.
On Wednesday, more than 10 local churches held evening events such as the popular �trunk-or-treat� where vehicles gather in parking lots and people dressed in costumes roam around gathering candy.
On Wednesday evening, �Trick-or-Treat on the Square� in Dallas brought out people to enjoy treats, games and music, hot dogs and hayrides.
Like many churches in the area, Bethlehem Church in Gastonia held a trunk-or-treat event in the parking lot of Gastonia Sheet Metal.
Dickie Spargo, senior pastor of Bethlehem Church, said events hosted by churches at Halloween are about fun and reaching out to others.
�I think what it offers is a safe environment for our families, a place where churches can reach out and show God�s grace and God�s love and a place just to have fun,� he said. �It�s really what churches are all about, helping people. I�m excited that a lot of our churches in our community are just doing things to offer things for families. Life is too short not to have fun.�
Christ United Methodist Church on Union Road in Gastonia held a fall festival on Wednesday evening with food, music, games, bingo, trunk-or-treating and a cake walk.

The villa offers spacious accommodation on two floors as well as a beautiful manicured garden providing a lovely setting for daytime and evening relaxation. The villa does NOT have a swimming pool but the popular Reggae Beach is a 10 minute drive away and even closer is the kaz Kreol Beach Lodge by the mouth of the White River. There is also the popular 'Irie River' on the White River a few minutes walk from the property. This villa is ideal for large groups especially Family Reunions, many of which we have recently hosted!
The manicured garden is a tranquil area covering an acre of land and has tall cocunut trees and tropical plants with exotic blooms. Wrapped around the house is a large U shaped verandah, ideal for breakfast or dinner or simply entertaining.
The main floor of 'Lansdowne' which is on the upper level plays host to 3 bedrooms each with its distinctive decorative theme and having views across to the hills.

The spacious Living Room features windows which open onto the wrap around verandah revealing beautiful views of the front and side gardens and beyond towards the hills. The furnishing is classic colonial and contemporary which gives it a comfortable and elegant feel.
The Living Room also features a games table with cards and dominoes as well as a handy folder with maps and information leaflets on sightseeing tours and places of interest.

'Lansdowne' haven for nature lovers and golfers. Ocho Rios, Jamaica
Additional Location Information
The prestigious area of Upton is located in the cool hills above Ocho Rios. A 15 minute drive from Ocho Rios will take you to Upton which was formerly a Pimento plantation and today still has large areas under cultivation. From the Villa there are interesting walks to explore, see the Great House at the top of the hill, visit the horses grazing in the nearby fields or simply admire the varied Jamaican Flora and Fauna.
Did you know? Over Three thousand species of plants grow on the island, and 27% of them are found nowhere else on Earth!
Jack and Teresa from Northumberland, England were so inspired by the location, they wrote a poem entitled;-
Light softly stealing on night's velvet eye,
Opens the new dawn to an apricot sky;
Above my bed on the roof's thin shingles,
A clattering of grackles, lets and mingles.
Whistles and cackles call the flock to meet;
Stamping and scratching on bony clawed feet.
Rudely I'm awakened at break of day,
With raucous squabbling before they fly away.
To nearby tree tops, with aggressive rails;
From branch to branch chasing each others tails.
This three quarter acres in St. Ann's hills,
Welcomes the morning as the new day spills.
I rise to breakfast on the veranda
And watch two chickens idly meander.
One brown speckled white, the other white brown,
Foraging food until the sun goes down.
Coconut palms swaying and waving fronds;
Herald Caribbean trades from the sea beyond.
Smoke arises on distant green hill sides;
Above a John crow effortlessly glides.
Tambourine like percussions rise then fall:
Ear piercing screeches of the June bugs call,
From the nearby forest, unseen though near,
Deafening crescendos overwhelm my ear.
Mocking birds singing in the orange trees;
Repeating their melody to the breeze.
A falcon swoops; a lizard takes cover,
Statue still, until danger is over.
A woodpecker hammers in guango trees;
Probing their deadwood for beetles and fleas.
A pair of green parakeets catch my eye;
Screaming their way to the woodland nearby.
An egret flaps in on the front yard grass,
And nervously stalks while the bantams pass.
A humming bird hovers above blooming trees,
Competing for nectar with honey bees.
Passers by call greetings, raising an arm,
A neighbouring guard dog, barks in alarm;
Gentle doves forage beneath a mango tree,
Grackle bird's cackle: preparing to flee.
The humming bird rises then slips away,
Honey bees follow then decide to stay,
The June bugs cease; the lizard breaks cover,
Grackles fly, so must I; breakfast is over.
Ocho Rios is considered one of the premier resorts on Jamaica's North Coast with its year round warm weather, sun drenched beaches, towering mountains, world renowned waterfall and with a number of sightseeing attractions for the family.
Ocho Rios which was once a fishing village now offers accommodation ranging from the large all inclusive resorts to beautiful villas set beside the sea or sitting on hilltops with commanding views, one of which is Lansdowne, in Upton.
Attractions include a visit to Mystic Mountain, a tour of a working sugar plantation and horseback riding on the beach. For the sports enthusiast, play golf or tennis, scuba dive to a sunken wreck or participate in a polo match.
Dunn's River Falls is no doubt one of the areas most impressive attractions with its crystal clear water cascading over 600ft of rock down to the sea. These falls are regarded as one of the best in the world and a holiday would not be complete without a visit.

I recently stayed at Lansdowne for a wedding in Ocho Rios. It was the perfect place for the Bride as there were lovely photo opportunities and it was very comfortable. The service was excellent as the housekeeper was very helpful. The location was ideal as it was away from the congestion in the town. Overall it was an awsome experience and I would definately recommend this property. Perfect for families.

"Fantastic Stay"
My family and i stayed at Lansdowne Villa on aug 23-25. At first i was a little put off by the distance to get there but once we arrived we were very happy. Ms. Enid is a very sweet and genuine lady, who embodies the true nature of customer service without trying. Both Ms. Enid and Ms. Anne made us feel right at home, perparing delicious meals for us daily and catering to our every request. The Villa is just lovely, with lots of fruit trees and areas to relax. We even enjoyed mangos from the tree one morning while we were there. Great place for families.

"Beautiful Views!!!"
My family vacationed at Landsdowne earlier this summer & what a treat! The house is very nicely appointed and the grounds are beautifully maintained. Enid also took excellent care of us, every meal was wonderful! We really enjoyed both the wrap-around porch, and the smaller one off the master. Much time was spent outside in the mornings and evenings. We can't wait to visit again!!

"Non commercialised Caribbean - just perfect!"
Want to spend time in the Caribbean with family or a group of friends but not in an 'All Inclusive' resort (where you could be anywhere!), then Lansdowne is the perfect place for a get away from it all holiday in superb, peaceful surroundings with home comforts. Close to Sandals Golf Course, but you will need use of a car to get to other places. (Not a problem though!). Reggae beach was our favourite beach and it was nice to have the choice of eating out on occassions (Harmonby Hall restaurant was excellent) or eating in and having a meal in (prepared for by Enid :-). As an alternative to Dunns River Falls (quite commercialised and busy), we were fortunate enough to stumble across Island Gully Blue Hole (very close to Lansdowne) but not officially opened yet. Wayerfalss and blue lagoons to swim in and we had the place to ourselves (stunning and fun!) - hope the lads who are trying to set it up manage to get their licences. If they do, sure it will overtake Dunns River as a tourist attraction (although if too many people find it, it may get spoilt!!)

"Fantastic Experience"
Everything leading up to our group's stay was very well-managed and organized. Our group spent a wonderful week. There were lots of indoor and outdoor activities available to us. Enid, the housekeeper, was very helpful and willing to assist us in anyway that she could. The owner is such a gem and ensured that everything was in place for us to have a comfortable stay. Thank you!

"Warm and hospitable welcome."
Fabulous house, tastefully furnished. Spacious and airy. The grounds well kept and a beauty to behold especially when sitting on any of the many balconies the house has.
Enid was especially a gem. Very attentive and considerate of our needs.
The serene quiet was only accented with the sounds of birds of many kinds.
We thoroughly enjoyed the wealth of reading material made available (especially on the sofa table). A lot of Jamaican history that we caught up on.
We especially enjoyed our breakfasts on the front verandah.
Looking forward to going back soon.

"A lovely time at Lansdowne"
Our church group held its Leaders' Retreat at Landsdowne. Although it was primarily a "working weekend" with meetings going well into the night;the house was so relaxing and comfortable that it was a pleasure to be there. Our morning sessions were held primarily on the balcony while we watched the sun come up, and as the day got warmer we moved the meetings inside.
The group had a wonderful time there. The bedrooms are airy and comfortable. The housekeeper Enid is hospitable and friendly and an excellent cook.
We definately plan to go back!!

Lansdowne created for our group a serene hideaway to relax, even while working. A lovely villa with comfortable furnishings. Our stay was even more memorable by the presence of our housekeeper - a most charming person. The grounds helped to make for a calming atmosphere, and we all enjoyed to stay.

All one needs to do is stand on one of the bedroom porches and drink in the view of Jamaica. From mountains to the see this house has an amazing view and the interrior design and furniture is fit for a king. This should be a resort and not a rental house.

"Relaxing and Rejuvenating."
Retreat, Relax, Rejuvenate...That's all there is to know about Lansdowne. An excellent getaway from the noise and traffic. The scenic views and huge landscape gives you freedom to walk and set your mind free. The rooms were very comfortable and accomodating. The house is beautiful and has plenty of space to roam around through. The cook/hospitality lady Enid was very pleasant and accomodating to all our needs. The food was a+...Enid can cook some food that will have your taste buds crying with pleasure. Beaches, stores, shops, nightlife was within driving distances of 10-15 min...The only short-coming to our stay was that is was way too short..lolol. So it was all worth the trip. Thank You.

"tranquil paradise"
Birds chirping in the morning and cicadas singing in the afternoon were just about the only sounds which invaded this tranquil paradise. My husband and I spent a wonderfully lazy weekend there. Our biggest decisions were choosing between breakfast on the lovely balcony adjoining our room or on the front verandah(both with amazing views); going for a nature walk or heading down the road to the beach. The house is beautifully appointed and the owners have taken special care to ensure that most conveniences have been supplied. I especially enjoyed the plethora of magazines and games. The housekeeper was unobtrusive, thus ensuring privacy, but always nearby and on call.
Lansdowne was a welcome refuge from the noise and pace of Kingston where we live. We especially wanted peace and quiet, but it is a short fifteen minute drive into the town of Ocho Rios, which has some good restaurants and shopping. Truly a lovely vacation spot, we'll definitely be going back.

We enjoyed our 2 weeks stay at the Lansdowne property. The property is located on the hillside in Ocho Rios, which is a nice secluded area away from the hustle and bustle of the town. We wake up every morning to the birds chirping and a nice breeze blowing while enjoying our breakfast on the patio. The yard is green and has very beautiful flowers. It is a very Zen property. The house is very roomy, the kids enjoyed playing around the area. However, there are a few areas for improvement. The interior could use some updating, maybe paint the walls, change the curtains, update the furniture, add air conditioning in the bedrooms and add something to minimize the mosquitoes. The housekeeper arlene did an exceptional job taking care of us. We will be forever grateful to arlene. We would definitely stay here again. You cannot beat the price

It's just by chance I found this fabulous vacation villa and I was not disappointed. We were a party of 9 and we had enough space for everyone .

I and 6 of my best friends stayed here. The comfort and tranquility was absolutely wonderful. The scenery is breath taking and nature is everywhere as you look outside your porch. The house is a short distance from Ocho Rios which is great. This was also a special trip for me because this is where I proposed to my future wife. I couldn't have asked for a better place.

"Best Spot in Jamaica!"
This house is so amazingly beautiful that I did not want to leave. It's surrounded in gorgeous landscaping and breathtaking views seen through the many big open windows and porches and balconies throughout the entire house. Arlene is a most excellent chef and caretaker. I would wake up around 5-6am every morning and walk with her around the neighborhood. She truly is an asset to the house and made it feel like home to me on my first trip leaving the us. My favorite thing about the house was the view from my bedroom. And the breadfruit that arlene made for us. I will most definintely recommend this hidden treasure to all of my family and friends!

Away from the noise and hustle of downtown Ocho Rios but only a short trip by car to the town,beaches,banks and supermarkets. A good North coast central area for a touring base and a 15/20 minute walk to the Sandals Upton golf and country club. Our housekeeper arlene took good care of us and is a superb cook and maker of fresh, delicious Caribbean fruit drinks. We enjoyed breakfasting on the veranda overlooking the well kept yard (garden).

"A week in Jamaican Pardise"
We spent a week at Lansdowne with some friends from England and it was one of the best vacations we have had in years. The estate home is located in a quiet area of Upton Hills a short walk from one of Jamaicas best golf courses run by Sandals. The home was very spacious, clean and beautifully layed out with lovely balconies where we often enjoyed our breakfast or drinks in the evening after a big day in Ocho or at one of the nearby beaches. One of the best beaches we would recommend is down the hill where the river meets the ocean. Arlene the house keeper prepared some amazing Jamaican meals using traditional recipies which was a welcome treat for visitors from Canada. Overal Lansdowne is a great place to enjoy a true Jamaican holiday with plenty of room for even 3 couples.

At 5am when the birds come to serenade me on the bedroom balcony, a timely alert for me to don my walking boots and go for my early morning walk - everyday a different breathtaking route".

The property has a huge yard with beautiful lawns and landscaping. This made for a lot of outdoor fun for all the children while the adults relaxed on the porches sipping our cold beers and rum punches. The best part is the services of the lovely housekeeper arlene who made some delicious meals and took care of our every need. Ocho Rios is very close by and provided good external entertainment including trips to the beach and the magnificent Dunns River Falls.

It's been a long time coming, folks, but the T-Mobile G2 -- and with it, the HTC Desire HD and Desire Z -- finally has a permanent root. The work was done by Scott Walker and his merry band at XDA and is being compiled into ROMs as we type, this, we imagine. In other words, you've got a tad longer to wait if you're not familiar in the ways of the GIT -- but rest assured, you'll soon have your permanent root. Check out the source links for more, and congrats, everybody! [XDA, IRC, GIT] Thanks to everyone who sent this in!

What are you talking about? Having a rooted Gingerbread rom will be even more awesome than a non rooted Gingerbread rom.
I wonder, is it any more difficult than other devices? I know some devices like the older G1 were considered more difficult for the newbie android user to successfully root, and some newer devices you can just click one button and it'll be rooted; I wonder, since this devices was "unrootable" for awhile, if it's more difficult than other devices to actually become a super user?
<--Rooting newbie tempted to get either Desire Z or HD.
It looks kinda complicated... >_<
I've been wondering the same thing; hopefully it will. Maybe sometime shortly after the 11th (the latest I've heard on release date), we'll get to find out...
I wonder if this method will be the base-line to rooting the MT4G? I'm under the impression they have the same 'security'.
As part of the XDA community, I say yipeeee!! Job well done, I bet HTC will be a bit surprised.
Listen again. The Doom and Gloom is about handsets getting locked. The fact that people were able to get around this one doesn't change that. Manufacturers are taking money for equipment, and telling you that you aren't allowed to have access to all the hardware you paid for.
I'll sell you a hard drive, but you can only run Windows Me on it. Sound good? You support that kind of thinking if you like, but don't ask others to.
The G2 is a good phone. It's fast. But I don't want or need T-Mobile and HTC to babysit me after I pay for it without a contract for their service. I had every intention of re-purchasing once the hardware lock was defeated, but now I have some other offerings, from companies who don't lock hardware down, to look at first.
That's perfectly fair. Don't take the "Doom and Gloom" thing the wrong way, I'm just saying it is what it is. ;)
I know it's been discussed ad nauseam in the past, but I'm still not completely convinced HTC put this here with the express purpose of blocking rooters. One story said the G2 had a backup partition, T-Mobile said they had read-only parts, then the hackers said T-Mobile lied about the backup partition. I went back to T-Mobile's dialog and found what they said was consistent to what the hackers were saying was actually a bug; I could not find any reference to a backup partition from Magenta.
Maybe it has all gone over my head, but this bug/feature did seem to be a capable failsafe and would serve the purpose of reducing customer service calls. If new OTA's fight this, that may reveal their intentions.
Hey Jerry, I have T-Mobile and I want to get the desire Z. How do I find out if it will work on tmobiles network? Can anyone help me please? I figured I would gte the phone from bell but I also don't know how to do that either.
Looks like Google suspended it from the Market. You can go here and get it though.

Natalia didn't seem startled by her voice. Instead she nodded slowly. Apparently, the young man beside her had also heard Helena's whisper.
"This could be a bit of a problem. Is there anything you think I could do? Or maybe you could just drag Atticus through a wall or something to get past?" he said to Natalia. Helena thought that he must be one of them as well.
"You can be visible and relax if want. Thank you for telling me, Helena," Natalia said, in English of course, to Helena. Then she turned to the man beside her. "No, it's okay, stay here with Helena, please. I'll be right back."
Helena shook her head, not that anybody saw that of course. She didn't dare to turn visible now. She was pretty calm, for the circumstances, and able to stay cool and invisible. But when Natalia left them to go find Atticus, it felt a bit awkward standing there without Natalia's friend able to see her. So she turned visible again, after having thrown some glances around to make sure that they weren't being looked at much. Then she looked up at the man.
"Hi," she said in English. She had a feeling it would become her main language for a while now. "Are you too in this... organization, whatsitsname?"
"Everyone, let's go!" Natalia's shout suddenly came. She darted past them and pulled Atticus up the stairs into the plane. "Now!"
Helena's head turned back to where they came from, and she saw people running after them. Something had gone wrong. "Chased again...!" she thought out loud before running after the others, completely visible, into the plane.
