One day later,
Emily squatted in her living room, circling another employment ad in the newspaper. She eventually looked at the time on the wall and stretched her weary arms to try and feel better. It was clear she had been working on it for a while.
She had almost run into Angelo that day, and once she realized that it was only because of him that she had gotten the job. Emily made up her mind to retreat. She had always been a hard worker, and receiving a handout from the very same person who had fired her twice was something that she could never imagine herself doing.
Knock, knock, knock!
There was another knock on her door, and seeing that it was already one in the afternoon and Gorgio was still in school, Emily stood up from her chair, walked towards her door, and unlocked it. Her jaw nearly dropped, her eyes widened with shock, and she was beyond speechless as Angelo walked past her and entered her house.
