“I hate this job,” Olivia groaned, slumping against the counter as she spoke to her colleague. “Who even buys flowers this late at night?” “Surprisingly, many people do,” Christine replied with a straight face, casually rearranging a bouquet of white lilies. “This is only your first week, and it’s been relatively slow, but you’d be surprised how many men suddenly remember their anniversary or their partner’s birthday at night.

I walked slowly in trepidation as our little apartment got closer. It was a 3-bedroom apartment that, thankfully, my father had bought in cash before his death or we’d probably have to move to a smaller home by now.

Silence. Dead silence was what I faced when my first commercial was finally seen by my family. I would have accepted shouting, berating, hell, even physical violence over this.Evan, the smartest one of all, had the presence of mind to get up, walk over to me, pat my back sympathetically (while barely concealing his laughter from me), and then go to his room.Still, my parents didn’t say anything for a few minutes, making me utterly uncomfortable.“So?” I prodded when the silence became too…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
