"How long before you think he'll give up?" I asked my aunt, Penny.

"A week tops."

"I hope so. Hey, could you bring your kids over?" I smiled.

"Yeah. Oh, I got you."

"Oh husband!" I sang.

"Yes wife?" He smiled.

"Penny and I have to go shopping. Your gonna watch her kids." I smiled.

"What? No way!"

"Bonding with children is a crucial part of our future!" I fake gasped.

"Erch, fine."

"That's great, bye."

"He's gonna have a suckish time." I laughed, with my aunt, Penny.

We walked into the garden and I gasped.

"Okay, this way!" He laughed, running.

"He's actually done well!" I frowned.

"This is bad."

"I'm going for an interview for a job, later. Will you be ok?" I asked Kevin.

"Yes of course."

"Ok great. I'm meeting him at the Chinese restraunt. The interview's for a newspaper journalist." I smiled.

"You'll get it." He smiled.

"I hope so."

"Yes, that's great. I'm getting another drink, would you like one?" I smiled.

"Yes please." I turned around and saw Kevin.

I rushed over. "Kevin, what's wrong?"

"I thought I'd help you with your interview."

"What the hell? Go home."

"Jennifer, is there a problem?" I turned and saw my interviewer behind me.

"Ah, Mr Walsh, this is my husband Kevin." I rubbed my neck.

"Oh, come join us." He smiled.

"How can you guarantee you'll be as good as our last employee?"

"Well.."

"Can I just say, last year we had chipmunks in our bin and animal control couldn't come, but Jennifer removed those chipmunks."

"Ugh ok?" He looked confused.

"Point is, Jennifer doesn't give up and works hard."

"I guess your right." He smiled.

An hour passed by and the interview was going well.

"I'm going to the bathroom." I smiled and got up to the pay phone.

"Aunt Penny, he's doing amazing." I explained my situation.

"And you left him alone?"

"Oh god. Bye." I hanged up and rushed into the room.

"Listen to us then." What was he doing? He had a mic to his mouth and the interviewer was next to him.

"Sit down." I said.

"We're going to sing." He smiled.

"Oh god." I sat down.

"Cause you gotta keep your head up."

"Oh oh."

"You can let your head down."

"Ay ay."

I laughed. He was truly amazing. They finished their song and sat down.

"I believe if you've married someone like this, then you must be fun and a hard worker. You have the job. Thank your husband." He said goodbye and we all went home.

"You were amazing tonight."I smiled. "Thank you." I held his hand, as we walked inside. I walked to the bathroom and removed my makeup.

"You should've sang too." He punched my arm, lightly.

"You were amazing! I can't believe it!" I laughed and turned to him.

"I love you, Jennifer."

"No. Don't." I shook my head.

"Jen, please."

"I can't."

He stayed silent. "I'll sign whatever you want me to sign." He walked out.
