Today five workers with 3 men and 2 women go out at night, tomorrow another five workers with 3 men and 2 women take turn to go out. The 5 workers join with all crew. Some of them bought little snack, some of them go to the bar, and some of them go shopping to the store.

Captain accompanied Anne to buy clothes at market. "Captain you don't want to buy a shirt?" asked Anne. "No Anne, I don't want to buy a shirt now. You can buy for your own. Don't you think you should buy a dress not man shirt?" asked Captain. "But Captain I'm using man shirt more comfortable to move. I think this white shirt looks good for Captain" said Anne while putting the white shirt in front of the Captain's body. Captain just looked at that white shirt that Anne holding. "Mister I will buy this white shirt and that white shirt with black long pant for my size. How much all cost?" asked Anne to the seller. "That all 50 silver pennies Miss" said the seller. Anne took the money from her bag and gave it to the seller. "Ok this 50 silver pennies Mister" said Anne. "Thank you Miss and this are your clothes. Oh I already wrapped at different papers for your own and your boyfriend" said the seller smiling while giving the clothes that already been wrapped with different papers. 

Captain and Anne just got red face and feel awkward when they heard the seller said. Anne just received the clothes and said good bye to the seller. While not far from the seller's place, Captain started to talk to change the mood. "You don't have to buy me a shirt, Anne" said Captain. "That's ok Captain because you accompany me rather than go with others" said Anne smiling. "That's make me worry if you go by yourself. You will make trouble with other man again" said Captain with worry face. "Oh that. That just accidently got bump with other people" said Anne trying to calm Captain. "When at Frankfurt almost got swim to the river" said Captain remaining Anne. "Oh that, my feet got slipped" said Anne feel shy. "Yeah you lucky because I been there that time" said Captain proudly. "Thank you for that Captain. Hmmm ... at Bahamas Captain followed me. Don't you Captain?" asked Anne suspiciously. "Oh you know that. Exactly I followed you from the first I saw you at Bahamas" said Captain smiling. "Why you follow me, Captain" asked Anne with wonder. "That because you look so silly walking by yourself. You going be an easy target that time" said Captain.

"But many of woman maybe doing the same things like me going by herself. Why just me Captain to choose?" asked Anne. "You looked smart and different so I think I can pick you helping my work. If other woman maybe I just help her but not recruit her to work and my prediction had the result. You really help us with your knowledge" said Captain with satisfaction. "Oh I see" said Anne with red face. "Why you go by yourself at Bahamas, Anne?" asked Captain. "I just want to take journey to see other countries with my own eyes not just picture or map" said Anne. "Oh you already do that with me and the crews" said Captain. "Yes I know that, Captain" said Anne. "Ok let's take a walk for now and maybe you want to buy something if we go around for a while" said Captain recommended. "Sure Captain" said Anne. Captain and Anne enjoyed walk around the city. After they think going walk for one hour, they decide to go back to their house. "This is your shirt Captain" said Anne while giving the shirt that still been wrapped. "Thanks Anne. I will wear this after been wash first. Good night Anne" said Captain smiling while receiving the shirt from Anne. "You're welcome Captain and good night too Captain" said Anne smiling too.
