Life like this…

Tina sat in her room on the floor and listened to music. The thoughts of moving out of her mother’s house seemed impossible. I mean, she had a decent paying job working over time just about every week. Had just about what she wanted. She loved to spend in the worst ways at times. And indeed she paid for it. Stubborn bull…

`Knock Knock`

"What?" Tina asked, as she lowered the volume on her apple computer.

"I’m about to leave." Says Tina’s mother, who stood with one ear against the door. 

"Okay…see ya!!!" Exclaimed Tina, who then turned the volume back up. She traveled mentally through music. At times she would imagine she was famous and what she would do with all her riches. She had a soft heart toward the world and many would say she was gullible. But, that was Tina. Tina was Tina. A hardworking lady soldier, who had a goal, and was determined one way or another to accomplish it.

Bette’s employment

"Anette, are you serious? You, did all that?" Bette asked, curiously.  

"All of it." Says Anette, with a smile so wide. "I love marriage. It’s something when you know that this one person is all yours, girl. It feels really really good."

"I hear you. I hope to reach there some day." Bette says.

"You will. Finding the right person must be worth it. Weddings are expensive. I mean, you can always go to Vegas." She chuckles. Bette laughs and shakes her head. "Did you get the schedule I sent you?"

"Yea. It’s going to be a busy week next week." Bette says.

"The holidays are coming you and I know you can really use the money. Besides, you’re one of my best and I try and look out for you all." Anette replies, walking toward her car. "Have you spoken  to Tina lately?" Anette asked, as she unlocked the car door. Bette froze dead in her tracks.

"No. We don’t talk anymore. I don’t know." Bette says, opening her door slowly. She sits down and closes the door. Anette closes her door and starts the engine. she gazes over at Bette and notices that she has slipped into a daydream. She knew what she was thinking and didn’t bother to distract her. She felt bad but not in such a horrible way. She knew her employee and knew she could be quite stubborn. But deep inside she had a secret soul that only those close, who she trusts, could ever come close to seeing what’s inside. She was very guarded, but also a sweet and caring person.
