Joshua POV still

I grabbed a sponge and some windex, with a sigh.

I can't believe he makes me do this for him.

And I don't even get paid!!!

I literally hate him so much...

I wish I could just run away. But I'd probably get beat... or worse.

So I just sucked it up and did my work.

I sloppily cleaned the windows. About a half hour later I was done.

My thoughts were racing on that girl I saw earlier today. She's so pretty...
UGH I CAN'T KEEP DOING THIS!

I don't have a chance with her, I know I don't.

I just packed up my things and went home.
When I opened the door I was hit with the smell of pizza. It made me sad.

He ALWAYS makes that. I'm sick of having frozen pizza every single week. It's like he doesn't even KNOW HOW TO COOK!!

I sighed and quietly walked to the table. I made sure to sit up as straight as possible so he wouldn't scold me.. even though he stands like a weasel.

He was like a vampire... he sat at one end of the table staring at me with those snake eyes.

I stared back, NERVOUS as heck. They were beady and cold. He's freaky...

"Uncle Morris..."

I whispered. His eyes broke the stare and looked at me, a bit startled..?

Morris: "Huh."

HE WAS SPACING OUT!? But... I thought only I did that!

"Um.. I was just gonna ask..."

I spoke in a very quiet voice.. like an itty bitty mouse...

"Can.. we have something else for dinner tomorrow, p-please..?"

Morris slammed his hands on the table like a toddler.

Morris: "NO! How DARE you suggest such a thing!"

"I-I um... sir.. I.."

Morris: "No, don't you 'sir' me. We are having frozen pizzas and that's final."

"Y-yes sir.."

Tears welled up in my eyes and I had to push them back. He was SO MEAN!!! But.. I did have something important I wanted to tell him, it was something that could maybe help my case when it came to him.

"W-wait um, Uncle Morris, I have a confession..."

Morris: "I know you are gay."

"NO! It's.. I have.. a crush.."

Morris: "On a man."

"N-NO ON A... a... W-WOMAN!"

Morris spit out his drink and then started licking it off the table. I almost cried from FEAR!! And a little disgust too.

Morris: "You have a crush on a woman?"

"Y-Yes...."

Morris: "Very well. We will arrange a meeting for you two then."

MY EYES LIT UP. HE AAS BEING NOCE TO ME NOW!!! Sorry... I got a little excited.. hehe..

I basically jumped out of my seat.

"You mean it...!?"

Morris: "Yes."

He got up and walked away, Morrisly.

I cried tears of happiness, and for the first time in a while I laid down in my bed and fell asleep with a smile on my face!!
