OliviA was in a sTrange city at the beginning of her three year degree course. She was talking to Mason about her first night in her landlady's student accommodation. "We were served our evening meal. I was the only one to say 'Thank you' for my food. When Jake was served his starter he said that it stank and asked what it was. The landlady said that it was her homemade sauerkraut and, moreover, he'd need to get used to it as it's very healthy and would help us students get good exam results!" (She was very proud of her sauerkraut and would boast about it whenever she could.) Olivia went on: "In the morning it was more straightforward as we could fix our own toast and cereal whenever we showed up for breakfast." As the term progressed, Olivia noticed that Jake never looked at ease and seemed anxious about something. On speaking to him he admitted as much, though he couldn't explain the origins of his angst.
