Hello Next Door

Phone Call

Therese's POV

It's Sunday and right now I am sitting at home trying to figure out how I am going to make ends meet this month. I am already only eating one meal a day and a small snack, The electricity is turned off in my apartment; I charge my phone at work and my computer is dead. I don't know where else I can save money.

Suddenly my cell phone rings, the caller ID tells me it is my sister Sylvia. "Hello" I answer the phone.

"Hey sis" Sylvia responds.

We chatted for a while about a few things, I keep an eye on the clock; gotta watch the phone bill.

"So i'm looking for a roommate," Sylvia says suddenly "And I was wondering if you were interested in moving?"

"This is so perfect," I think to my self. "an answer to my prayers." Out loud I say. "Uh sure, I guess I could move in with you. It's probably better then this lousy apartment I have now."

"Yay, I'm so exited!" she responds "When do you want to move in?"

"Beginning of next month." I respond. "That way I get my monies worth of my rent payment."

We chat over details for a couple minuets more then hang up. That was definitely worth the long phone call.
