LAST WORDS · June

Ehy Luly

Sorry but I can't make it for dinner tonight 😓

Oh dear

Are you allright? 😧

Yep, nothing serious

Trouble at work, as usual

Something happened?

Today we made an ass of ourselves with a client.

I fell behind with some bugs and we received some complaints

So tonight I'll have some catching up to do 😰

What assholes!

And your boss didn't say anything?

He knows you have your own problems!

He didn't even defend you?

What's there to defend?

I am the one at fault here...

Anyway, in the next three or four days I'm going to my dad's

I lock myself in and finish all the work 💀

So... I'm not going to see you?

I wanted to spend some time with you and relax

This CV and job thing is stressing me out. 😰

I am so overwhelmed...

Has no one answered you yet?

We decided to proceed with another candidate

It is the only answer I have received

Fuck them 😤

Did you try to show all your work for Gentrify?

That's a very cool project

That should arouse interest!

They don't give a shit apparently

Only interested in translation work

Well, that sucks

Gosh I'm so sorry 😢

Never mind

See you next week? 💜

For sure!

I miss you so much 💚

Miss youuuuuu toooooo 😭

I'm going to get some rest

I am exhausted

I guess it's all because of this anxiety

Talk to you when you wake up

Love you 💚

Love you tooooo 💜 💜 💜

Update the code

How's your dad?

Not well...

They have changed the therapy: it is more aggressive, it exhausts him and makes him terribly nauseous.

He can hardly eat anything anymore, I don't know what to do.

Do you want me to come and give you a hand?

Better not, Luly.

You'd see him in terrible shape...

Also, I can't get away from the PC, I'd be very little company for you.

I don't want you to come and be his carer.

That's not a problem!

Maybe I can have a little chat with Italo, cheer him up!

He's not in much of a talking mood, believe me.

Anyway, don't worry, I should be able to handle it.

Ok Frankie, just don't try so hard to be a hero, all right?

All right, all right, I promise.

On a more cheerful note: did you collect all the data for the website?

So we can start uploading them!

Mmm yes, that's right...

Sorry, it slipped my mind and I forgot to ask the others.

I'll hear from them in the next few days and sort it out.

Ok...

How's work going?

Eh, still nothing.

Same old crap.

Have you tried going to the headquarters?

Maybe they are things that make an impression

Yes of course, I show up out of nowhere.

Hi, I'm Lusinda, do you want to pay me to do things? Thank you very much

Well, it's better than staying at home all day, isn't it?

For Christ's sake!

As if my parents weren't enough to put pressure on me!

Now you're joining in?

What the fuck!

No, wait, sorry, I didn't mean---

The website, the work, do you want to ask me something else?

Am I not doing enough?

Should I do more?

You tell me what the fuck to do!

No Lu, wait---

Fuck off.

. . .

Exquisite turkey!

This time you really outdid yourself.

You like it?

I was afraid I had overdone it with turmeric.

No no, it's perfect!

Are there any morsels left?

Ahah you are such a locust!

Here, let's split the last pieces.

Uuuuuuuh yesss yesss yesss!

Would you like some more dip?

Are you asking me?

. . .

Oh God heeeeelpppp

I'm really bursting!

I think I've eaten too much.

Ahhh, so it meansthere is a bottom to that well named Lulu.

While you're resting, do you mind if I finish something at work?

More work?

Unfortunately yes

Last week I had to take care of my dad, and some work piled up...

I just need to check a couple of tables, in an hour or so I should be done!

Meanwhile, you just relax.

Oooook...

You can sit here next to me on the couch, will you?

Maybe you can fix that data for the website a bit, then---

I'll come over and snuggle up then.

MEEEOOOOOWWWW

All right, cuddly-lu.

Thank you very much for your patience.

Open the notebook

I'm sorry Frankie, I'm really sorry.

I know it's a shitty time for you.

MI feel really down in the dumps.

I can't find a fucking job, nobody answers me...

Plus I can't help you in any way, I feel really useless, it sucks!

My dad suggested that I start in his office, but...

Your dad?

What would you do in a lawyers' office?

You know, the secretary.

But in the meantime it could be a start, maybe this way I'll make some contacts.

I'm really desperate, I can't find anything, I depend on my parents, and I...

I...

Hey hey, take it easy.

Let off some steam if you need to, that's what I'm here for.

What if I start at my dad's and never leave?

What the fuck am I going to do with my degree in languages!

Jesus fucking Christ...

Well, you don't have to stay there.

You can keep sending CVs...

Hello Ms Demàr, what would you say your work experience is?

The secretary? Thanks, we'll let you know.

This is.

At my dad's!

It's like a joke, fuck.

I really can't take it anymore...

Hey, the hard thing now is to get started.

Once you start it's a snap, really.

Yeah, let's hope so.

Phew, that fucking sucks.

I've always wanted to go to the United Nations, nice fucking dreams.

Luly, it seems impossible now, but you'll see that it will get better.

You just have to hang in there and start somewhere, anywhere.

Uh!

My dad's calling me, one second...

Pick up the call
