Anna picked up the phone and dialed Bret’s number, keeping an eye on the intruder. “I knew him from my past that’s for sure,” she thought to herself. “But just to why he’s here, I’ll have to ask Bret.”
“Hello, Cafe Milan, how may I help you?”
“Bret, it’s me, Anna.”
“Oh hey Anna, what’s up?”
“Why exactly is there a guy that has a spare house key as well?”
“A guy with a spare house key? Oh you mean Alec!”
“Yes him. He came in this morning just as I got up.”
“Oh well, he did say he was coming in the morning.”
“Can I boot him out anytime soon?”
“What? No! You can’t! He’s here at my request! Why though?”
“He’s Alec as in Alec from high school isn’t he. You know why.”
“You’re still holding a vendetta against him? It’s been years Annie.”
“Don’t call me that, and yes I still am. Don’t tell me what I can or cannot do Bret.”
“Fine whatever, just let him stay in the house. He’s roped himself a job here and he needs it.”
“Fine, but don’t expect me to be hapy about it.”
“Annie, wai-”
With that, Anna hung up the phone. “So he’s here for good now huh.” she thought.
“Hello? Hello? Anna?” Bret said into the phone to no avail. He sighed and placed the phone down and left the kitchen. It was still early in the morning, but the applicants for the jobs he posted earlier that week were about to arrive and so he should prepare.
“After all these years, Anna don’t let it come back to haunt you once again.”
