Family company

Lara spent the day with Roxy, doing easy tasks in the HR department. She hadn't told anyone about her birthday, and Nate had promised not to bring it up.

Doing the trivial work in Human Resources felt no different than working in the sales or secretarial department. She would walk to Roxy when she wasn't sure about something, but most things she could do.

«I had a course about recruitment and stuff in college,» she said to Roxy during a break. «It was fun. Just a shame I couldn't listen to the second part the following year.»

«I see... Do you miss studying?»

«Studying not so much, but sometimes I miss college.»

«You could try to enrol again now that there's someone taking care of the twins,» Roxy said.

«It's late, and I'm not as attracted to a student's life anymore. I'm an adult, and I have a family to take care of. Oh, and apparently a whole pack.»
