We were in the living room chatting after we finished our chores and he was telling me about Cindy who worked here before me. He said she was really lazy and quite a chatterbox.The bosses left earlier in the morning since they had a meeting and probably won't be back until late in the afternoon. The house was quite boring except for when Francis is around. The man was a god of comedy and jokes. He was fun, hilarious and sometimes delusional with his made up theories. He was odd but that's what made him unique. "So, have you ever thought about kids, he asked throwing some peanuts in his mouth. " No, not really. The time for kids is... Is definatley not now. I want them thou. Do you have any? "" Ha. I got

He sat calmy with a hand on the table as I kept mine in my lap. I stayed quiet as he looked around the place then his eyes landed on mine. I held his gaze until the waiter came back with the food. "Stella, tell me more about yourself, Daryl asked as the waiter walked away. He started eating as I drank down a glass of water. Unbelievably I was quite thirsty.

She was strung up on the machines so much that it pained my heart. Her lips were dry and her skin was so pale. "I wish you weren't like this. You don't deserve this, I said as I brushed her face slightly with my hand. She squuezed my hand and I smiled brightly letting my tears flow. " I have a new job; I'm going to pay for your surgery and you're gonna get better" She squeezed my hand again before I kissed her forehead and took up my bag. I had to go to work so I glanced at her once more before leaving the room. I was met with a nurse on the way and she gave me a smile before I left the hospital.
