2021-12-30 21:46:31Max didn't know what to do when Claud started to point the gun in her head.
She's alone and has nowhere to call to help her so she suddenly got nervous about what will happen to her when Claud will kill her. She was thinking of her daughter Tally if she will die. She was still young to be left alone in this world. She doesn't want her daughter to be an orphan just like her so whatever it takes, she will make sure that she will live.
"You are a good guy, Claud. I know that and if you love her, don't let her use you. It's a selfish thing. Tell her you like her and she will have to accept that Asher doesn't love her!", Max tried to convince Claud of doing the right thing but instead of listening to her, he tightened his grip on the pistol and load the gun ready to shot her.
" Enough! I don't want to hear about your lectures! Maggie will be happy if I can make you out of her life. I don't care if I'm going to jail as long as I make her wish come

The cold breeze ruined my hair while I and my daughter Taly crossed the bridge away from our home. My husband Greg died because of drunkness. He falls on this bridge while going home. He left us with nothing but his huge debt from two lending companies. Taly was only one year old and the only thing that covered her body was the thick jacket I bought one year ago.I cough with colds and my legs and arms feel numb with these winter days. Taly started crying and I don't know what to do. I had one backpack with me and I forgot to get her milk on the table when they started pushing and destroying our things.

I sometimes bent my head down my lap checking Taly to escape from his fascinating eyes.Call me acting like a teenager but it's a bit awkward for me to have someone staring at me the whole time because I'm now a mom, actually a single mom. It's my first time in my life again to experience this type of chilling moment."Hey, are you afraid that I might hurt both of you?", finally, the good guy asked me.I quickly shook my head."

I was excited to go outside for job hunting but every time I showed them my resume, they change their decision to hire me.It's my tenth interview with a fabric company as a sewing maker. I waited patiently after receiving a number thirty number tag. I didn't even have a proper meal since I don't want to waste any time until I didn't get any job. My stomach is now rumbling inside but I just ignored it and just drink the last drop of my bottled water."Max Lopez?", I heard my name." It's me, ma'am!", I quickly stood up and answered her.She's the one who handles all the applicants. She's old and serious. I took a deep breath for an interview."Follow me." She said and I gladly came to the consultation room with her."Good luck!", she said before leaving me inside.

She mumbled and put a wide smile on her face. She bounce her feet while walking on the aisle when someone called behind her. "Max, is that you?", it's a male voice and when she turned around, she almost had a heart attack when that guy was Russ. She's lucky that she quickly replaced her men's clothes into her formal attire which are baggy pants and a plain white t-shirt. " Oh, my, you startled me!
