<div style="text-align: justify;">Amy was very happy to have met Gloria as well. She felt that she would give something and get something out of that relationship. She could offer the other woman some ways of being safe, and she could get a new friend - and Amy knew full well how much she needed one in there. And if she managed to get a good contract out of Rich Porter, she might even offer Gloria the position she would end up having to leave. It was a good place to work, and the boss was a very respectable man, so it would be a good idea for Gloria to work for him instead of risking finding someone who was not so nice. <br/><br/>When Gloria said that she hoped to get a chance, Amy nodded. “Small parts are easier to find”, she replied. “A lot of girls who want to make it big think they are too good for those, but this is where agents sometimes catch wind of your face. And of course, even if you seek them out yourself, it helps to have something to show for yourself. Photos are also good. You should find a way to get a portfolio done. Agents love that”, Amy advised. It was clear that she had already learned some of the ropes. “I can show you mine if you’re not sure about how it’s supposed to be, and let you in on how I have gotten it for next to nothing”, the girl continued. It was clear that she really wanted to help. <br/><br/>Hearing Gloria say she needed to find a nice job, Amy decided to make her an offer without telling her about her possible break - Amy had heard from her mother that one should never tell about their plans before they came to fruition. “If you would like, I can talk to the gentleman I work for and see if he can get you a position with him, or someone he knows and trusts - I believe it would be safer”, the girl offered, gently. <br/><br/>Once Gloria had seen and approved of the room, Amy felt a little more relaxed. It was good to know that the other girl would stick around. She showed a bright smile when Gloria thanked her. “Oh, not at all. It’s gonna be great to have you around, I’m sure. I’ll let you finish get settled, while I write a letter home and do some tidying up. But please, knock at any time I’m around, all right?”, she offered, knowing that was what friends were for, and hoping that they did become friends pretty soon.</div>
