This will be short.
*Katie's POV.*
I wake up and check my alarm clock. Obviously it didn't go off because there is no power and I can't get my stupid generator to work. I didn't sleep in that late. It's only 7:30.
I get dress in a yellow T-shirt with a scoop neck, jeans and a pair of black converses.
I walk to the Sweetbriar,
"Morning Rose." I say.
"Hey there Katie, you want a coffee?" She asks. "Sure, thanks." I say taking a seat next to Barbie. "Hey," I say.
"Hi," he says not really looking like he wants to talk much.
I turn to Rose. "Pretty busy this morning." I say. "Where's Angie?" "Home with her brother I expect."
I see Carolyn walk in and ask Ollie Dinsmore if he had seen Norrie, showing him a picture on her phone of she, Norrie and Alice.
"Your daughter huh? How's that work?" He says. I roll my eyes.
"My partner and I are a same-sex couple with a child. Welcome to the 21st century." She says coolly. I smile at Carolyn for standing up for herself. Ollie can be a huge pain.
"How did you end up here in Chesters Mill anyway?" The guy sitting next to Ollie, Roger Lopez asks.
"We were driving through town on our way to drop off our daughter, our legitimate daughter off at a nearby private school." Carolyn says.
"So she's reformatory you mean," "You think they can pray the gay out of her?" He says. OK I've had it.
"We don't always need your input Ollie. So could you do us a favor and shut the hell up." I snap at him. Everyone, including Ollie, looked at me shocked by what I had said.
I just flip my hair and walk out. "See ya!" I say, and I notice Barbie give me a thumbs up.
I smile, very few people can shut Ollie Dinsmore up that quickly. But thankfully I'm one of those people.
