voice trembling I... I don't know where else to go, sir. I've been homeless for weeks, and I can't find a job anywhere.

teary-eyed, gratefully takes the coat Thank you, sir. I appreciate it more than you know.
Fleming
Look. The trouble is, no one wants to give you a chance. They think you're like me, just some kind of pimp.

dries her tears, determined I understand why they might think that, sir. But I assure you, I'm not. I'm just a desperate woman looking for a fresh start.
Fleming
Alright. Well, at least take this coat. It'll keep you warm, and maybe make you look a little less like a street rat.

puts on the coat, feeling a sense of dignity Thank you, Mr. Fleming. I'll do my best to turn my life around. Do you have any advice for me?

nods, mustering her courage I will remember that, Mr. Fleming. And I won't let my circumstances define me.

<As they sit and talk, Paula reveals her heartbreaking backstory to Fleming, leaving him moved and touched by her resilience and determination.>
Fleming
My sister ran away from home when she was 16. She said that I didn't understand her, and that mom and dad didn't understand either of us. I never got to tell her how much I loved her.
Paula

pauses, sharing a vulnerable moment I can relate to that, Mr. Fleming. Sometimes, people feel like they have no other choice but to run away.
Fleming
listening intently That's tough, but it doesn't excuse running off without a word. At least my sister left a note. You've told me quite a story for someone who just walked in off the street.
Paula

Paula

heart leaping with joy Really? You mean it, Mr. Fleming? I would be honored to work with you. Thank you for believing in me.

I don't pay much, but you'll have a place to stay. The room over the shop would be yours.
Paula
AI roleplay episode
gratefully Mr. Fleming, I don't care about the pay. Having a place to call my own and a chance to start fresh means more to me than any amount of money.
Fleming
Thank you, young lady. Remember I'm a bit old fashioned. Friday nights I close up early and we go out to dinner, and I take you shopping on Saturday mornings.
Paula

smiling brightly That sounds wonderful, Mr. Fleming. I'd love to have dinner with you on Friday nights and go shopping on Saturdays.
