I've been here longer than I imagined. It's not that I mind being with her, but this whole peaceful and tranquil atmosphere isn't my thing. Though I admit I love seeing her happy, calm, and having her like this for myself.

Violet is on the couch, absorbed in that movie. I'm getting bored, but at least she seems happy. This couch is too soft and these walls are too quiet. Finally, I pause the movie and sit up, leaning both elbows on my bent knees.

"Are you still looking for work?" she asks while taking a popcorn kernel from the bowl between us and bringing it to her mouth.

"Yeah, an offer came up, baby, I'm just still thinking about it," I tell her. I take a couple of popcorn pieces and toss them in the air, catching them with my mouth. I lean back on the couch, tilting my head back. "I hadn't told you because I'm still thinking about it," I say.
