18 Floors Above the Apocalypse

Chapter 46
Stella stepped into the kitchen and grabbed some freshly boiled eggs. She made a batch of pickling liquid and pour it over the eggs. "It's done." she stated.
...
Just as she was about to take a nap, there came a knock at the door.
The residents of 1801 and 1803 were heading out, even Rosie was donning her raincoat. Jasper wanted to take these two out for some real-world experience. With Cooper's unbridled enthusiasm, Stella thought about it and didn't refuse, "Wait here."
She went back to retrieve her makeup box, selecting a dark color and began to apply it on Rosie's face. It wasn't wrong to let Rosie see the harsh reality of the post-apocalyptic world early on. Still, she was simply too rosy-skinned, making her an easy target if she ventured outside.
After some retouching, Stella finally finished applying the makeup to Rosie's face making her look more weathered and rugged. The dog nudged over as well; he wanted to be painted too.
Stella scoffed at the idea. The dog's face was ugly enough as it was. Cooper, whose confidence was severely dented, huffed and without looking back, left with Jasper.
When Stella woke up from her nap, she began preparing to perform acupuncture on Katie.
Katie took out a cloth-wrapped baked potato from her pocket, "Stella, my back is feeling much better. Thank you."
The potato was still warm, but Stella refused, "I have charged for my services. You keep it."
She wouldn't take anyone's survival chances away. Food was life.
Katie, however, insisted on giving Stella the potato. Suddenly, there was another knocking sound from downstairs.
"I appreciate your kindness," Stella told her, "but if you insist on giving it to me, you can use the potato to pay for your future treatments."
The knocking continued. After a while, someone started shouting, "Hey, girl from the 18th floor, I'm here for treatment. Open up!"
