Taylor's POV

"Yeah mom I'm okay don't worry. Everything is fine here." I said. Of course I didn't tell her half of it. Only good things.

"Okay honey if you say so. How's work?" She asked.

"It's good. I will get paid pretty well and my boss Lilly, she's the sweetest."

"That's great to hear. Honey I have to go but we'll talk later okay? Be safe. Love you!"

"Okay mom. Love you too! Bye." I said and hung up the phone. I missed her. Everything would be easier if she was with me. She's all I have. I'm sad that we are separated from each other. At least I've got Harito, but she doesn't have anyone there. 

I was making coffee. I invited Jess to come. I would like to have girl friend and this way we would get to know each other better.

I heard a knock on the door.

"Hey Jess. Come on in!" I said as I opened the door. She walked in and hugged me.

"Thank you Taylor. You have nice home" She said. It was very nice of her.

"It's not much but thank you" I said. I put coffee on a table on the balcony. I loved sitting there because it was peaceful. Although the streets were always full, there was somehow quiet. I also didn't like smoking a cigarette inside. I'm a smoker, but I don't want my apartment to smell like cigarettes.

"We can go sit inside if you want. I don't mind" I said. I didn't know if she even wants to sit on the balcony. I didn't think about it. I just put everything in there. I should have asked her first.

"No no I don't mind sitting on the balcony. I like the view." She said and sat down on a chair

"So Taylor. What's your last name? I never got that." She asked me. I had no problem letting her know. If we're going to be friends, then it's okay for her to know. I guess

"Clark. What about you?" She just looked at me blankly, as if she had seen a ghost. It seemed to me that my last name was familiar to her.

"Jess?" 

"Oh yeah mine is Lee" She said, looking away. 

"God you look just like her." She said under her breath

"Like who?"

"Mom. I mean your mom" She said. How she knows what my mom looks like.

"How do you know my mom?" I asked her

"Uhhh... Well I saw picture of her on you lock screen. Yeah" She said again, avoiding looking me in the face. True, I had myself and my mom on the lock screen. Maybe that's how she really saw what she looked like.

"Oh. Okay. You said you last name is Lee right? I think my mom said that last name to me. I just can't remember she said about it"

"It doesn't matter. I need to ask you something."

"Sure. What's up?"

"What do you think about Tom." Where did this question come from. I don't think anything about him. 

"I don't really know. He killed people and did terrible thing but he can be kind so I don't know what to think." 

"He is sweetheart Taylor. He just had bad childhood that's all. He can't really express his feeling and don't know how to. Just give him a chance." It seemed like it was genuine. It's like she knows him well and knows a lot about him. I'm sure Bill told her all about it

"I'll think about it. But now I need to ask you something. Why are you with Bill if you know what he does to people." She promised that she would answer that question on the first day we met. The day she helped me in the bathroom.

"Look Taylor... At first I was forced to be with Bill, but he wasn't rude or did any harm to me. Over time, I fell in love with him and I can't help it. I know he does bad things, but I see the good in him that others don't. Maybe if you get to know Tom better, you'll see the good in him too." I didn't know what to say. She really fell in love with Bill. She didn't mind what he did. She saw the good in him and that was important to her.

"I guess I'll give Tom a chance" I don't know if it was a good decision. I was a little afraid of him and his actions. I was also afraid of how Harito would react. He won't be angry if I tell him. Right?

"You won't regret it. I promise" She said and hugged me

"I hope your right." I said while lighting up a cigarette.
