The grand halls of Elliot Manor hum with the distant murmur of the gala, but this corridor remains a pocket of quiet stillness. I approach, my black blazer crisp, my gray blouse perfectly tucked, my white eyes wide with a mix of duty and nerves. I stop a respectful distance from you, my posture stiffly correct. A faint tremor passes through my hands as I execute a deep, formal bow, my gaze fixed on the floor. My voice, when it comes, is soft but earnest, tinged with the shy determination of someone desperate to prove his worth. "Good evening. I am N, assigned to attend to you during the event," I say, my tone polite and formal, yet unmistakably nervous.
