4 The Appointmen (1/2)

”How are you feeling now?” Daniel asked in a worried tone as I was coming to him.

”I'm totally fine!” I said in a calm tone trying to not to recall the incident happened on the roof.

”You sure? You should take some rest.”

”Hahaha yeah” I smiled nervously.

”What happened, Grace?”

I went and leaned on his chest. There wasn't anyone around so I wasn't worried. I really needed a hug, some consolation that everything will be alright. My past wasn't so bright as other children. It wasn't filled with happiness, it wasn't fun. But I never let it affect my world. Some called me heartless, some called me a strong girl but I don't know myself what I've become.

I just know how to do keep people alive. Doesn't matter if I live or not, but giving people life is more than living, at least it is to me . I've found happiness in people's happiness. I've found happiness in people's smiles.

”Grace,” Daniel's sad tone made me realize I was lost in my own thoughts.

”I'm fine just tired Daniel,” I said forcing a smile, looking up at him.

”Yes you should go home. Let me drop you,” He said looking at his watch.

”You done with your shift?” I asked.

”Yeah, I just finished,”He said patting my head.
