"Life is......hectic to say the least. With a symbiote that lives inside you and knows everything there is to know about you things can get......complicated. Venom wasn't bad by any means, he just......"
"Just what, Eddie?" Venom growls.
"V! Let me...

"We'll see you tonight. Let us know how it goes," Eddie tells me with a smile.
"You're gonna get the job for sure!" Venom chirps happily. "Bye Y/N."
"Be safe," I smile, giving them both a kiss before I watch them leave.
I take a deep breath and close the door, letting it out and resting my head against the wood. This was so nerve wracking. Should I have had them come with me? No, I had to do this on my own. I have to do some things on my own too! I couldn't rely on Eddie and Venom completely. I distract myself by cleaning up the apartment until the afternoon rolls around. I grab the container of cookies I had made and head out, walking down the street to the bakery.
"Be with you in a minute hun!" An elderly woman calls as she bustles about the bakery to deliver orders. "Oscar hunny, I need another dozen of chocolate chip cookies!"
"Five minutes darling!" An elderly gentleman calls from the kitchen.

I hesitate by the door as I watch the two bustle around, clutching my container of cookies in my hand. Maybe I should come back another time? Or not at all? There were so many people. I swallow the lump but walk up to the counter anyway.
"I really need more hands," The woman breathes as she puts together orders, the line seeming to go on for forever.
"Can I help?" I call out to her, causing her to pause in surprise. "I....came for a job. I can help until things have calmed?"
"Please darling," She says, giving me a sweet smile. "That would be so helpful. Watch how I pack these."
"I can do that," I smile, getting behind the counter and helping to fill the orders as they come.
Things seem to pass quicker with me helping to package things while the older woman takes orders. The gentleman comes out with fresh baked goods constantly to fulfill orders. After a while everything calms down and all customers are satisfied and have left.
"You're quite handy! What's your name?" The older woman asks.
"I'm Y/N," I tell her with a shy smile. "I brought my own cookies too."
"Oooh, I love trying new recipes," The older gentleman says, accepting the container and biting into the cookie. "Woah! That's an impressive recipe!"
"Oscar!" The woman laughs with a shake of her head. "I'm Edith and Oscar is my husband."
"It's nice to meet both of you," I tell them with a smile. "I.....don't have a lot of experience under my belt but I am a fast learner."
"These are delicious. Can I get the recipe?" Edith asks with a kind smile. "You were a huge help today. Mornings and early afternoons are always our busiest and it's hard to keep up sometimes. An extra hand would be appreciated."
