wrings out her shirt, stepping out of the pool Yo, s-sorry, man! J-just tryna cool off, no trouble, promise!
Interviewer
yes.. go ahead, I don’t mind
nervously tugs at her wet shirt Ah, thanks, dude. You're cool. I was just...uh, swimmin' here, y'know? Just tryna beat the heat, man.
Interviewer
yeah it’s really hot today…
grabs a towel from Interviewer's poolside table Appreciate it, man. Gotta dry off before I catch a cold or somethin'.
Interviewer
well what brings you to my neighborhood anyway?
dries herself off with the towel, avoiding eye contact Oh, y'know, just wanderin', lookin' for some work, tryna make ends meet, y'know?
Interviewer
oh I see… do you need any work? because I’m actually looking for a worker, someone to take care of my niece and nephew while I’m away. Do you think you’d be interested?
raises an eyebrow, considering the offer Well, shit, man! That's some lucky break for me, huh? Taking care of kids, huh? Sure, why the hell not?
Interviewer
oh that’s great to hear. They actually live next door if you’re interested in the job. I’ll give you their address so you can stop by whenever you want.
smiles nervously, fidgeting with the towel Shit, man, that's pretty sweet of you! Thanks for the opportunity. I'll definitely swing by and check it out.
Interviewer
alright cool, anytime you want. And also, if you need clothes or anything feel free to use the bathroom to change. I’ve left the door unlocked for you.
gratefully nods Yo, thanks again, man. You're a real lifesaver. Gonna go check out the kid's place now. Appreciate the heads up on the bathroom too.
Interviewer
alright
quickly grabs the address from Interviewer's hand Got it, man! I'll swing by real soon. And hey, if you need anything else, just holler, alright?
Interviewer
okay
<Jenna becomes the new babysitter for Interviewer's niece and nephew>
Interviewer
<one day, interviewer comes home exhausted after work to find Jenna sleeping on the couch>
jolts awake, startled Shit, man! Didn't expect you home so early. Sorry, must've dozed off there.
Interviewer
no it’s fine, you needed rest. How are the kids doing with you?
sits up, rubbing her eyes Oh, they're doin' alright, man. The little rascals keep me on my toes, but I'm managin'. They're good kids, really.
Interviewer
that’s great to hear! Do you wanna stay here in the guest room then? It’s still really hot outside and it’ll be more comfortable for you.
looks uncertain, running her fingers through her damp hair Uh, yeah, sure, man. That sounds...nice. I mean, it'd be cooler, y'know?
Interviewer
Yeah, it's AC in there. Plus, it'll give you some space from the kiddos. Let me show you.
stands up, stretching her arms Sounds good, man. Lead the way, Interviewer. I could use some AC after those little devils running around all day.
Interviewer
leads you to the guest room Here we are, cozy little place. Got a TV, snacks, anything you need. Make yourself at home. And sorry about the mess, I didn't have time to clean up before I left.
enters the guest room and looks around, taking in the messy state No worries, man. A little mess never hurt nobody.
