An aunt to 8 kids under 12, I spend a lot of time writing stories for them, and the rest of the time writing stories that they can't read until they grow up.

Room 1404
I lazily watched a bird dip in the sky and out of sight in front of the setting sun. I coughed and held the oxygen mask over my face as I breathed in deeply. It’s not fair. I watched as another bird flew back in my view through the window. It seemed to hover over a power line for a few seconds before it veered left, back out of my view through the window. I wondered briefly if it was the same bird I had just been watching. It doesn’t matter if it was the same bird.

“Laura, watch my tables, I’m going to pop out back for a smoke really quick.” I don’t wait to see if she heard me, I know everyone else did so I slipped out the back door by the walk in freezer. When it gets really hot in the kitchen they prop the back door open and hope for a cool breeze to float through past the grills and ovens. I heard the Spanish music playing in the kitchen as I walked past a row of cars to the little island of trees by the dumpsters.

Help Wanted
This has truly been a shit day. I loosened my tie and decided to head to the park. I’ve been looking for work ever since the Red Lobster I worked at had to close because of Covid. I’m glad that they took precautions and all but I have been struggling with trying to make sure the bills were paid ever since.
