Honestly everyone in this community (DCA) is so nice. It's a nice change from everything else I've been into. And that's probably why I'm still active in it. Well, not as much as I want to. But either way I just needed to say that. Have a blessed day!

"I know some people don't like us for what we are so I understand if you decide not to live with us."
"Oh oh okay. That is actually a good thing.
" No, that is not a deal breaker for me at all, that's fine with me. I'm not like normal people"
"Well that's a relief. By the way, I like the dress.

One minute later she received a message. It was a picture of two animatronics, one resembling the moon with a crescent on his round faceplate white and navy blue and the other the sun light yellow and orange. They were cute.

Should I send a picture of myself since you and I don't know what we look like?"
" I'm running late, but Sun's already there . Actually, that's a great idea. I'll forward it to Sun. I'll send you one of us as well."
She took the picture with a shy smile on her face, sending it to Moon.

Turning around to the employee she stumbled out her order and flushed getting caught staring. As the employee got her card to pay for the drink taking her phone out to text Moon.
" Hey, Moon?I'm here at Starbucks. Are you here yet?

among other things. It was fascinating. She didn't have to look for too long as one was seated in the right corner bench table at the end of the shop. His appearance was unique; he had rays around his round yellow head like the sun.
Welcome to Starbucks, can I get your order ?"

that the kids had mentioned because she was curious despite everything they were not a lot that roamed around by themselves but it was something that you were starting to see more of. They had constructed them for some jobs that were unsafe for humans to perform and some for entertainment purposes

Humans tended to make things worse than what they really were, more like rabid animals than anything. Marking their territory. So as she walked to the counter to order some fruity drink, looking around to see it she could see the animatronic

*Forgive the bad writing* *continuation* Kids these days were so ignorant shaking her head at the observatory and pointy walking inside. Her opinion on the matter was let's not piss them off please. She watched Terminator and Short Circuit as a kid.

" Hey did you see one of those robots in there, it was super freaky, like it doesn't belong with us okay there not human! What is it even doing here, it 's not like they need to read or eat….." One of the kids said. She tried to ignore them.

The drive didn't take long, about 10 minutes. As she got out she saw some people hanging out at the front of the shop. They were a group of teenagers being loud, walking around them to get to the door of the Barnes & Nobles to the coffee shop inside.
She overheard their conversation-

in a comfy purple cotton knee high dress with pockets and tights with black sandals. Taking her mini backpack, keys and phone with her. Looking at the time it read 4:35pm. Just enough time to get there with time to settle her nerves as best she could.
As she got in her car, connecting her phone.

tired but not being able to rest just yet. She had things to do and she could not stop until everything was resolved.

enough time to get her clothes back home and get cleaned up. " Yeah, that's good for me. Oh by the way My name's Stella it's nice to meet you"
"It's nice to meet you too Stella. I'm Moon. I'll also be bringing Sun. He would also be a roommate you need to meet before anything."

" Yes, that sounds good. um… we can meet in the Starbucks in the Barnes & Nobles on 9th Street.. Do you know it?"
"Yeah I know it, how about 5pm today I should be off work by then. Does that sound good to you?"
She looked at the time on her phone.

rent, is it still available?"She said as calmly as she could, with everything running though in her head.
"Yes, are you interested in it?"
"Oh great, yes I am. So maybe we can meet up and so we can make arrangements or something?"

thinking much of anything. Taking a deep breath in and out trying to regain some semblance of self. Sitting on the chair in the back of the laundromat as she heard the phone ring four times before she heard a gravely male voice on the other end " Hello?"
" Hi, I just saw the ad for the room for-

As she read the ads that were posted on the board one caught her attention: Room for rent $550.00 a month if interested please call 555-XXXX
It had a picture of said room and a picture of the walk-in closet. It didn't have an address or a name.
As quickly as she could she called the number without

there would be something to give her any hope before she lost everything.
She would take any scrap at the moment. Everything in her apartment was packed except for the clothes that she was currently washing and essential things like toothpaste and the like, just to be prepared.

Slowly recovering as she tried to distract herself, going to the board with announcements of different things, usually missing pets or people selling things like tvs etc. she always looked at it out of boredom waiting for her clothes to dry.But now she looked out of desperation to see if by miracle

Before she knew it, there were only two weeks left for her to find anywhere to stay. At the moment she was washing clothes on her day off, at the local laundromat as she thought about her situation and having a mini panic attack. breathing in and out to calm her nerves.

Did she mention that she didn't have to be in a team setting while doing so? It did happen once in a while,but rarely. That was the best part, interacting with others was hard with how shy and awkward she felt around people .
Time was running out.

searching for a new place to live while still working a housekeeping job (she basically went to rich people's houses, new homes and,sometimes office buildings to clean them too), it paid the bills and she rarely had to deal with customers because she was there when they weren't.

she composes herself not wanting her mother to worry about her anymore than she had to.
She barely had time to look for a new place, working 40 hours a week. She could ask for her vacation time.
The next couple of days were spent getting things in boxes, selling things she no longer needed
