Daphne Gennings Liam has left me alone in the house again to my own thoughts. He says that working will make him feel better about Seb’s death and that just almost seem to validate my theory that he is probably resenting me for this and he no longer thinks his spontaneous decision is such a nice thing anymore. Well, they all seem to have a thing for leaving me all alone because Kellan too has gotten a job and he couldn’t exactly leave his job to keep me company, I guess I should get used to watching movies by myself. I better go make some popcorn, who am I kidding, I better make a lot of popcorn, it’s going to be a long day. A very long day. I guess it won’t be that long if my job wasn’t just to sit down all day watching cable tv and crappy American sitcoms that really gets on my nerves. It’s been three hours already, my eyes are struggling to stay open and If I eat one more popcorn I could literally explode. I stare at the screen for a little while and I have absolu
"Hey, do you still need a job?" "Yeah, you got any?"" Yeah, there's an opening at an art gallery, your job is to take care of the paintings and make sure they ain't fake or damaged or you know, just to make sure there's nothing wrong with it""What's the job title?, it has to have a name right?"" Do you want the job title or the job?" Stupid Jules. Showing off with her smart ass comments all the time."If you want the job, let me know so I can make a call and tell her to leave you a slot, but if you want the job title let me know so I can stop worrying about you""I wonder how you switch from playful to serious in 0.2 seconds.” At this point, I wonder if the gods can really give anything except pain and sorrow. They have shown that with me they are really good at that."It's a gift from the gods.""Why do you worry about me though, are you in love with me?" I say jokingly trying to lighten the mood."No you idiot, I'm worried about you because you looked like shit when I walked in,
Daphne Gennings A loud thud woke me up from my slumber. I looked around to see what it was, it was Julian, she fell off the couch and hit the ground and she's still not awake, is she really deceased? she's such a heavy sleeper. I tried to go back to sleep but I couldn't, I glanced at the clock and my eyes widened. It's past seven. How long have we been sleeping? Liam will soon be back and this house looks like a pigsty, I better clean up before I add to his grief. I picked up the cans of beer lying on the floor and searched around for the bag of chips, I couldn't find it anywhere. I picked up my scarf that was lying on the floor and used it to dust the crumbs from the couch, I re arranged the throw pillows that were lying everywhere and went to get the vacuum cleaner. I need to get Julian off the floor if I'm going to vacuum it, I put down the vacuum cleaner and reached for both her hands in an attempt to drag her from the living room to the corridor. Her fists were clenched, I opene
Marcel McClain Alina, Gina and I sat in the courtyard, you know, next to the lake that ran quite peacefully through our backyard. Alina wasn’t as surprised as her sister that I wanted to play chess with her or even volunteered to see her at all. She seems to know the kind of person I am. A sick minded person who plays games. An actual real life game of chess and from the look on her face, I don’t think she minds that fact very much. In fact, I happen to think that she loves it very much and she’s happy that there’s finally someone like this in her life.There was freshly squeezed orange juice in front of everyone of us.“You and your sister should play the game first.” I want to see how she moves. She moved like a shark in the tournament she won but that’s now a while ago and I don’t think she plays the same way anymore. She must have changed her strategy.“That ain’t going to take much time.” One of the reasons I don’t like Alina again. She behaves like a hood rat. Like a short one.
Daphne Genningshe sun is almost up and I'm dressed like a middle aged law professor on her first day of work. I forgot how terrible Julian was at giving directions. It's my first day of the job Julian got me and I'm on my way there right now and I couldn't feel any more lost. I'm on the phone with Julian right now, she forgot the name of the street where the art gallery is located so she's giving me directions via this phone call and I feel so frustrated, I've passed the same stupid house for the third time now, it's like she's intentionally taking me in circles. How am I supposed to show up late and covered in sweat on the first day of work. What if they fire me immediately. I asked her for the name of the gallery and ended the phone call. I was determined to find the gallery myself. I started to ask around but I was not making any progress. I was about to give up when I saw this guy, he looked like someone that would care about the location of an art gallery, he looked I don't know
Marcel McClainI knew Dylan has arrived with probably a bunch of people when I heard his boisterous laughter from the pack grounds. Dylan is a loud man and he doesn’t go anywhere without making himself known. I went outside to greet him and welcome him as it is customary for us to do as I got outside to the pack ground, I see him already talking to Gina and I was glad to see that she was already charming the pants off him.“My friend.” He says in his warm friendly voice as soon as he saw me. I don’t know why but my heart did a little jump at that. Maybe because I know he genuinely sees me as a friend. Enough to leave his pack affairs to probably an incomplete Beta for about a week so he can spend time with me. “My friend.” I went closer to him and I was going for the universal bro hug thing before he pulled me in for a big bear hug. I had a larger frame than him so I dwarfed him but it felt a little nice. Not at all uncomfortable as I have imagined. It always feel so comfortable bein
Daphne GenningsWell, anyways, I am here to announce to you all that my life has gone to shit. In a matter of seconds. My boss is the rude guy I met in the morning who won’t even help me with directions. I am in deep shit because Julian is such a piece of shit. Jeez. And now I am standing right in his office so he can give me my office ID which I will also be using as my pass and well, the painting files because I need to know everything about the paintings I will be taking care of.This is not a job that will allow me to paint, I guess but still I am just very happy that I get to keep some people babies and the paintings are all so meaningful and deep. And I get to look at those beautiful sights every day and I will meet more people and it will just be way better than getting married to our tv. I am so excited about this. The only downside is my grumpy boss who looks like he will rather be anywhere else than her. Julian didn’t think of telling me that my boss might be an asshole. I
Marcel McClainTo be honest, I really don’t know shit about women thing but does a pedi really take that long and why that should be a good thing because well, that means Gina and Alicia are bonding and my plan was going well and Alina was already here and discussing with Dylan but then again, I am curious because I want to know what is happening with both of them so I decided to eavesdrop on all of them so I am now being reduced to that jerkwad that usually plaster his ears to the wall to hear shit and if that wasn’t embarrassing, I don’t know what is. I decided to listen in on Gina and Alicia first and they were talking about sex. Sex with us. It really wasn’t anything to worry about so I think it will be more profitable to listen in on Alina and Dylan because I want to know about everything that is going on in my pack but when I got to where they were supposedly discussing, they really weren’t doing much of talking, just really heavy make out and dry humping. I don’t know. Can’t t
