~Louis~

I entered the Fuentes' home and Mr. and Mrs. Fuentes were standing right there with some bags.

"Hello....." I said.

"Hello. Louis, we have to leave and catch a flight. Something unexpected happened and we really need to go. Melissa and Toni will be here. Melissa is at class right now and Toni is at school. We don't know how long we will be gone. They already know about this," Mr.Fuentes said. Mrs.Fuentes looked terrible. She looked sad.

"Please call us if anything is wrong, okay?" Mrs.Fuentes said and her voice wasn't cheerful, it was dry and it sounded like she'd been crying. It was tempting to ask what was wrong but I'm just a painter.

"Okay. I hope your flight goes really well," I said and Mr.Fuentes nodded.

"We have to go now, goodbye. We will see you soon." Mr. Fuentes said and I said goodbye back. He walked away along with his wife.

I chose Melissa's room to paint so that would be over with. I took my shirt off since I didn't want it to get really dirty.

I should start bringing extra shirts.

I was taking a break when I decided to go outside and just sit there.

I laid on the grass and just relaxed. Well that was until I hear a scream from inside the house which caused me to run inside to find Melissa in the kitchen. Her finger had been cut and she was bleeding a lot.

"What the hell just happened?" I asked as I looked for something to wrap around her finger. I couldn't find anything so I grabbed my t-shirt that was on my shoulder and cut off the sleeves and wrapped one around her finger. She was bleeding a lot.

"I was cutting an apple with that knife and I was using my phone at the same time so I accidentally cut my finger.." she muttered as I finished wrapping the sleeve on it.

"Hopefully you learned your lesson," I laughed.

"I did. Thanks, I didn't expect for anyone to come for help," she said.

"Well, I better go back to painting. I was just painting your room," I said.

"Can I help? Its my room after all."

"Of course you can. You don't have to ask," I laughed.

"Okay, then lets get going," she beamed.

We were painting and she seemed like she was having loads of fun.

"Why are you having so much fun? It's just painting," I chuckled. She stopped painting and she looked at me.

"I've never painted before. My dad has always hired someone to paint if we need rooms painted. He says that there is no need for us to do it and that that's why there are people with the job of a painter," she sighed.

"Your dad seems like he is strict," I admitted putting my shirt back on.

"He's not strict, but he wants things his way. He's a great dad I guess. I guess him being the chancellor in a college makes him like that," she said.

"He doesn't like me," I laughed. I really didn't care because my intention wasn't to make friends. I was just trying to do my job and get my fair payment. But it makes me mad that when I told him that I had gone to a party, he was disappointed in me and not in Noah just because he was in college and I wasn't.

We heard a door nearby close and Melissa said,"Wait, my brother is here. Im gonna go ask him something." and left the room.

"What's wrong?" I asked after she walked back in.

"Nothing, it's just that I wanted to know if he has heard anything from my mom and dad."

"Where did they go? They only told me that something unexpected happened and now that have to fly somewhere," I said. Its weird that we were talking like we've known each other for a while but I don't even know this girl. Well a little, I guess.

"My grandma got very sick. I think she has a really, really bad fever. She's been having fevers a lot recently but this time it's worse." It must've been Mrs.Fuentes's mom since she looked the worst.

We finished painting and Melissa looked proud of her work. I couldn't help myself but chuckle.

"I think it's time I leave," I said.

"Okay. Wait! Do you mind driving me to the pharmacy and back? I think I might need some things for my cut but we don't have anything," she said.

"I guess," I sighed.

I put my stuff in my cart and we walked out to my truck. We were driving in silence and we were at the pharmacy. I thought that I would maybe need some things so I looked for things to buy.

I grabbed two gallons of milk, coco puffs, ramen noodles, candy, popcorn, gatorades, and some monsters. I paid for my stuff and looked for Melissa. She was already paying and when she was done, she came up to me.

"Ready?" I asked.

"Yeah," she said and we left.

"Thank you for wasting your time on me, Louis. I hope you have a great night. Bye,"she said and got out of my truck.

"Your welcome and Bye!" I yelled as she walked towards her house.

Today wasn't bad actually. I guess I enjoyed hanging out with her.
