✏Allison’s POV✏
.
My brows narrowed at Jonas slurred words, even though it sounded low and almost gibberish, I caught the meaning and even got clarification when he repeated it but still I couldn’t be sure.
“Jonas, what’re you saying?” I asked, giving him a clueless look.
“Allison,” he took my palm In his and stared at me with a deep yet subtle look in his eyes. “Don’t hate me” he added coldly, pouting his l-ips.
“Jonas, I can’t ha-
His weight fell on my body and unaware, I gave a little stagger. I studied his face and he seemed to have fallen asleep.
Did he drink that much?
I picked up the bottle of vodka and realized that it was almost empty.
“Jonas?” I called, trying to balance his weight on mine. “Jonas, can you hear me? Wake up so I can take you to your room” I called but got no response. I sighed softly and made him stand then grabbed him by the wa-ist before he could fall and we both ended up on the couch, with him on me.. My breath became heavy and I successfully stood up from under him and decided to just let him sleep on the couch.. There’s no way I can make it to his room, with him.
I stood up and arranged him well on the couch, resting his leg and head properly. I pulled off his shoes and brought his jacket closer to his body. My gaze subconsciously moved to his face and I felt a smile pulling up at my l-ips. And then the next minute, I found my head pushing downward to meet his but before it could collide, I got my senses and mentally slapped myself.
Was I just…?
I sighed wearily, gave him one more look and walked out of the house.
Earlier, before arriving home, I had seen a job vacancy post outside a coffee shop but I couldn’t check it out just yet because I was in a hurry to see Jonas and now that I have, I need to go check it out.
I made it out of the quiet surrounding and passed across the busy street, getting to the store. I gave a stare to the placard for assurance, nodding in satisfaction, I went in and walked straight to a man I found behind a counter.
“Good evening, sir” I greeted and his attention came to me.
“Yes, how may I help you, young lady?” He asked.
“Um..my name’s Allison and I came for the poster outside, I mean the vacancy-
“Oh, right!” He came out from behind the counter to meet me. “Alyssa, I’ll be back. This way, please” he said and I nodded, following him to a door.

“Drop your number with that guy that brought you here, you’ll get a call if you’re hired” the middle aged man, whose name I got to know as Scott and who happened to be the boss of the store, said.
“Okay sir” I said.
“That’s it, you can leave” he said.
“Okay, thank you very much” I said, stood up and walked out. Closing the door, I let out a long sigh. Left to me, I didn’t think I was impressive enough with the interview. Since I had no credential, he decided to interview me briefly and honestly, I never have felt so nervous in my entire life. It was my first time applying for a job and everything seemed new to me. At some point, I found my self stuttering while my fingers fumbled on each other.
I did a quick calculation in my head and equaled my chances of employment, it came out low. Even my interviewer didn’t look too impressed.
I went the guy, left Jonas telephone number with him and left the store, hitting the road back home.
I arrived and opened the door and the first thing I saw was Jonas still fast asleep on the couch, he was in a different position now.
I went in and fixed his feet well on the chair before going into the kitchen. Hungry, I rummaged through the refrigerator and took out an apple, munching it as I placed the kettle that had coffee on the gas. I’d have cooked but I wasn’t a good cook, the day I tried cooking in my house; we ended up having fruits for dinner. Mom always concerned herself with the kitchen and since she had no problem with it, I didn’t bother visiting there to cook..
The coffee was ready and I threw the apple core into the waste bin before pouring the coffee into a mug, I grabbed a cup and walked out of the kitchen. I drew the coffee table a little closer and placed the mug on it.
I went to the sofa and sat on it, bringing my gaze to the television whose screen was blank. I stared at the dark screen then gave Jonas another glance; watching him sleep peacefully, I took my mind elsewhere and it landed on Jonas words before he passed out. I rested my head on the head rest, spread out my legs and my eyes closed.

💓Jonas POV💓

I woke up with a heavy head and I sat up on the chair and my gaze dart around my sitting room and landed on Allison that was fast asleep on the couch.. I glanced at the small table, took the mug and poured myself some coffee, I drank it natural and felt a lot better. I rubbed my eyes and stood up, walking out of the living room, I made it to my room and picked up a duvet. I walked back to the sitting room and spread it on Allison, covering her well with the blanket and adjusting her body on the couch, she released a slight mo-n and stirred but continued sleeping.
I watched her innocent face. She looked so timid and innocent; she was that way too. It’s probably because she was an only child or because she spent most of her time around her parents and with no one else. She trusts easily and cares a lot. Even though she could be a little active and determined at some point, she still remains that timid girl and with how she’s living; I’m pretty sure she isn’t used to experiencing the harsh side of life.
I would never have thought being an orphan could be so sad and painful, living with Allison showed me just how painful it could be, but not to everyone and definitely not to me. I’m sure I’d have preferred being fatherless instead if I had my way; if my mom hadn’t lost her life if I hadn’t killed my father and maybe, just maybe I’d have felt a bit of remorse or sympathy if I hadn’t developed a cold heart but I doubt that, I’d say that day was the happiest day of my life.
I dart my gaze back to Allison’s face and raised the duvet to her neck.
