<div style="text-align: justify;">Amy showed Gloria a kind smile when she said she was a little homesick. She could remember how she had felt shortly after getting to Hollywood. It seemed hostile, scary, like a lonely desert. She was glad that Gloria would at least have someone to talk to, something she had not had for a while. <br/><br/>“I feel you there. I had never spent more than a week away from home when I came here too, and even then, it was with family, so it wasn’t really… away from home, I guess”, she replied. “I’m sure she does. Maybe we should do something nice so you won’t feel so low?”, the girl suggested. Of course, they couldn’t do anything fancy, but they could at least go for a cup of coffee or something of the sort. <br/><br/>When Gloria asked her if she still missed home, Amy nodded with a sigh. “Every minute of every day”, she confessed. “It’s not too bad when I’m busy, but when I go to bed, I really miss hearing my mom say good night”, the girl explained with a soft sigh. “It does get better, though”, she carried on. “Mostly when you get busy and start having time for nothing but work”. <br/><br/>After these words, Amy kept silent while Gloria looked at her pictures. When Gloria said that she would like to work with reliable people, Amy nodded. “I will introduce you to this gentleman I often work with”, she offered. “His name is Phil, and he has daughters about our age, so he feels a bit of a sense of responsibility. He has helped me a lot since I have come here”, Amy explained.<br/><br/>After another break and yet another sigh, she tapped her forehead. “Of course. You need to write a list of your skills too. Whatever you can do that can be interesting. You know, anything special, like riding a horse, or speaking another language, anything that makes you different”.</div>
