Lovely Bella Notte

Why were you looking for a job?

I wanted something to do this summer.

A wonderful new job? That sounds awesome, what’s the job Al?

I'm going to be working at a local daycare center.

You got a job?

I did! It's at a daycare center. I got the call I'm hired today. I didn't want to tell you I applied, because I didn't want to jinx anything.

Mr F, if that.

Old habits die hard.

You have no such reason, nothing will ever make Mondays okay.

I do when I'm starting at a wonderful new job this coming Monday.

Monday is the tool of Satan, are you a Satanist now? So much changed when you avoid me.

Don't be so silly, Mr. Faline.

You realize how insane you sound?

Oh, nonsense. I have a perfectly good reason, thank you very much.

What’s Monday?

It's my first day at my new job!

He doesn’t have kind feelings towards anyone. Not a single damn person. 

I’m sorry. You don’t deserve to- You don’t deserve to be called that. Especially not by someone like him. And I couldn’t just- 

It's alright... You did what you could. Also, I accepted quite some time ago that your father might never have kind feelings towards me.

It still hurts. 

It'll be over in a moment if you just stay still.

Ow.

Oh, calm down. I've hardly touched you.

Thank you.

What? I’m in a fucking mood, I have a black eye, the fuck do you want me to say Alessa? 

I don't want you to say anything. What I want is for you to be quiet for a moment, take a couple of deep breaths, and let me tend to your eye.
