Charlotte:

Marjorie called me back to her office this morning I wonder if it really is about the late fees this time. I get there but only see Autumn
'Good Morning Autumn'
'Good morning Charlotte how are you'
'Good thank you, Marjorie wanted to see me do you know where she is?'
'Yes she is in the carpark confronting another pervy dad'
'Ahh I understand'
'But feel free to take a seat and wait for her'
'Ok thank you Autumn'
While I wait for Marjorie winter comes in and has a conversation with Autumn while I scroll through photos on my phone'
'Hello my sweet'
'Hi'
'I won't be long but I was just wondering what you wanted for your dinner'
'How about we order in a Chinese'
That sounds perfect my sweet ill see you later'
'Goodbye handsome'
I look up and smile at Autumn.
'Thing between you and winter are going well'
I say
'Thank you but Charlotte are you here to work or to sit here and gossip'
'To work, sorry Autumn'
Marjorie walks in at just the perfect time.
"Hello my love sorry to keep you waiting"
"Don't worry about it, but what's going on"
"I just wanted to have a chat to all the staff about some changes regarding the sister nursery"
"Ok"
"And I thought it would be best to speak to you first as I need you to cover there on Monday considering they had lost a lot if staff due to siobhan"
"Oh that's completely fine so whats been going on"
"Well Roger has taken it upon himself to hire a deputy manager for the sister nursery and guess who it is"
"Who?"
"Non other that Reeses ex girlfriend"
"Wait what"
a voice squealed from outside the door
"Carly I told you to stop eavesdropping on our conversations we pay you to work not to stand outside the office all day"
"Sorry Marjorie" Carly shouts as she scurrys back down the hall
"Sorry about that my love"
"No worries"
I say laughing
"Anyway as I was saying Roger hired Reeses ex who was apparently horrible"
"Oh no"
"Yes oh no, so I can only apologise in advance for what happens on monday"
"Oh Marjorie don't worry I'm sure I'll be fine"
"Even so, are you free tonight because I want to take you out for drinks as a thank you for doing this for me"
"Yes I'm free but you really don't have to do this"
"I know I don't have to but I would like to I'll pick you up at 7.30?"
"OK ill be ready then see you later Marjorie , bye Autumn"
"Bye bye my love"
"Goodbye"
Autumn says

I spend the rest of my day looking after all the children luckily jodie had no more accidents with potpourri today but I did have a baby vomit all over me but luckily I've learnt my lesson my now so I got my spare top out of my locker and changed. After my shift was over I collected my daughters and dropped them off at my dad's before i went home and decided what to wear out. I got in the shower and washed,dried and curled my hair. Then u did my makeup and but on a leather black skirt with tights, white long-sleeved baggy jumper and a pair of black boots. I grabbed all of my things and waited for Marjorie to pick me up.
I heard a car horn honk outside and I immediately knew it was Marjorie so I got my phone and bag and locked up the house.
