Amalia's pov

Its been two months since i started working for Jack and  to tell you the truth i really enjoy it. I really enjoy working here. Jack is not a bad guy. Over these past few months I have gotten to know him better from the few times we have4 spoken and honestly I think he is just a very lonely guy.

He always asks me about my past and my family and I always avoid the questions. He realised that I didn't want to talk about it so he never brought it up again. I have also asked him questions about his past and realised that he doesn't like to talk about it either. Seems like we both have our own skeletons in the closet.

The only problem I have with him is his drinking. He drinks everyday . In the morning when I get here the place is always full of beer bottles. He sleeps until noon and has a new whore everyday.I have noticed that the last month that I have been working here he drinks less and less and there aren't any more whores coming around. I don't know why it stopped but it makes my job a whole lot easier and less awkward when all these girls grab their shit in the morning and leaves before he wakes up. Some of them looks pretty embarrassed whenever I see them sneaking out however others simply don't care.

I was busy taking out the lasagne when I felt a presence in the room with me.  I looked up and find Jack standing there staring at me.

"Can I help you ?" I asked and he shook his head. He started preparing himself a cup of coffee whilst I started preparing a salad.

"why do you cook for me everyday?" he asked.

"Because I figured you pretty useless when it comes to cooking .Besides the pizza boxes I found in your house  the first day I started working here proved everything."I said and he chuckled.

"Yeah I suck at it. By the way Drew and Lucas will be joining us for dinner."

"sure. There's more than enough for everyone." I finished up the salad and started setting the table.After setting the table I found Drew and Lucas already sitting down at the kitchen counter. I greeted them and went on cleaning the rest of the kitchen up. I grabbed my bag was about to greet the guys and leave when Drew stopped me and asked if I wasn't joining them.

"no, thank  you. I have some personal business to attend to" I turned around and left. 


I got home , took off my clothes and jumped in the shower. I washed my body and than washed my hair and got out off the shower. After putting on some clothes I made my self a sandwich and ate.  I have managed to save one thousand dollars considering that Jack pays me two thousand dollars a month and I have to pay rent which is seven hundred and fifty dollars a month. I hardly ever buy groceries because I normally eat at Jacks house so I get to save up a lot.  I cleaned up my plate and went to bad. Just as I laid my head down I received a text from Emma and I felt my heart shatter.


"Jeff knows where you are."

Jacks pov

Drew, Lucas and I  sat down and ate after Lia left. We started talking about the usual stuff when Drew started asking questions about Lia.

"How is Amalia doing here?"

" she's doing just fine. " I said. Things has been better ever since Lia started working here. The house is always clean and she cooks everyday. I would lie if I say that her presence in this house hasn't been affecting me because it has. I don't drink as much as I used to since she started working here. I guess in a way I feel embarrassed about the amount of bottles she has to pick up every morning and if I have to be honest I don't want her to see me as nothing but a drunk even if that's what I am. I cant describe it but ever since she came into this house she's been like a ray of sunshine. She makes me want to be better . She gives me a reason to wake up every day. She gives me some form of hope that maybe just maybe I can be happy again and be a better man than I used to be.
