<div style="text-align: justify;">Angelique really wished she had been joking when she had said that she was now unemployed. It was something she would not joke about, though. The idea of being unemployed was not the a laughing matter for Angelique, who felt that work was a part of her, as much as her skin and hair were. <br/><br/>Feeling grateful for Kyle’s comment on the people who had let her go being crazy, Angie touched his knee gently and patted it. “Thanks, Kyle, really. But they had a reason”. She cleared her throat, feeling a little bit uncomfortable. After an almost painfully awkward pause, she decided he deserved to know. He would be staying in a home with her for a while, after all. “I kind of… had a nervous breakdown during my last assignment… but don’t worry, I’m perfectly fine now. You don’t need to worry about something happening while we’re here. This is actually just what the doctor suggested, that I spent some time at a comfortable environment where I could feel safe”.<br/><br/>After this brief explanation - she would elaborate further should he want to, though -, Angelique listened to what Kyle had to say about his PR team. She had heard some nightmare stories about people’s dealings with these sort of teams. And while that wasn’t her usual job, Angelique was sure she could come up with a pretty neat piece for his renovations. It was right up her alley, after all, as she knew that area well and would enjoy being there for the job. “I would love to help you out with that, I really would. And if you really feel that you need to pay me, fine. But you really don’t have to”. She was being honest, of course. She would have happily done the job to pay for her time in there.<br/><br/>When Kyle said that they didn’t have a good reception in the house, Angelique wasn’t surprised. Being from that area, she had spent a weekend here and there back in some Louisiana town, and most of the time, she hadn’t even bothered with her phone or laptop, as she knew it was a terrible place to get signal. “Good thing I have it in old-fashioned notebooks. I hope you enjoy it. It’s mostly dark, I like writing horror and mystery. And you can be my critic, if you are so inclined”. She chuckled softly when he apologized. “No need to apologize at all. I am from around here, remember? I know full well how smaller towns in the area work. It’s a great thing if you need some rest and some time away from the world”.<br/><br/>Making a pause, Angelique turned around and played with Alex a little. She had really liked the dog, and she felt that she would be good company for her as well. <br/><br/>At his question about her writing about him, Angelique turned her attention back to Kyle. “I can definitely do it as your spokesperson. I can draft an introductory piece after I have had the chance to rest from the flight, and you can see if my style works for you. If it does, you can use this first one and I can update as the work goes. I think this can really work out”.<br/><br/>She fell silent when he turned to the road that gradually became a dirt one. It felt sort of nice to see that place. She was definitely going to have some peace and quiet there. “You are indeed taking me to the middle of East Jesus Nowhere”, she joked, forcing her Southern accent to the max. “Should I be afraid of what you’re going to do to me once we get there?”, Angie completed, obviously still joking.</div>
