After the elevator incident, I've been trying to recover but when I see any elevator I feel like it's gonna be just like the one here. That's the bad news. The good news is I got a job. I wanted to work finically because I actually have the skills for it but my interview turned into having me go look at a job as a book edited which isn't so bad. I'm great at that field as well and to be honest, it may be more fun to edit books than work with money and all anyways. Sadly, Vane works in the supermarket next to my office building so when ever I leave work, he's leaving too. So we walk home together. I wouldn't really mind but he keeps asking me weird question that don't really make sense. Like, "How many times?" Or "What's your blood type?" Stuff like that. It's weird and I don't know what to say to it. Then when we get to the apartments, he always jokes about that elevator and pretends like he's gonna shove me in it. He never does of course but still. I hate. For some reason he always takes the stairs with me anyways. I guess he wants to talk to me. I went into his house for like 2 minutes yesterday. It was kinda freaky. Like dark red walls and raw meat laying on the counter ready to be cooked but it smells bad. His bed is huge. It takes up most of the room and when he showed my his bathroom, he had tons of toothbrushes in the trash and they where are frayed up and ruined badly. I asked him about it and he said that he just has tough teeth. He was a fine friend besides all that. He was really nice and when he wasn't asking weird questions we talked about our future and what we wanted to do with our lives. It was great. It was 6:30pm and I was ready to eat some dinner when the door bell rang. I thought it would be Vane but it was some girl with 2 other guys. I smiled at them.
"How can I help you?"
"We just wanted to say hi." The girl said. She pointed to the other end of the hall. The side with out the stupid elevator.
"We live in the 3 houses on this side of you. I'm Dest. She tapped one of the boys head. He had a big scar on his face.
"And this is Quip and the other is Keep." Dest, Quip and Keep? What funny names. Also Vane. That name was weird as well.
"Oh hello. Nice to meet you, I'm Jack Harper."
"Jack Harper?" Dest asked getting closer to me. She tried to look inside of my house.
"Yeah."
"Hmm, I like it." Keep said. He leaned over and handed me a box of candy.
"Here's a present for being the newest resident of our apartments!" They all said at once. I laughed thanked them. We talked a little longer about the place and the elevator. God damn thing. Then I said goodbye and set the box on the counter. Maybe I'll eat it later, I thought to myself. I wouldn't right now I had papers to fill in about me for my new job. What a pain. Why did they need to know about my personal life any ways? I pushed my jet black hair from my face and worked quietly. I fell asleep but I was very tired. So it was good for me. It really is.
