Sam stood at the door, nervous, hearing the request for her to wait just a moment she took a deep breath and straightened her clothing once more. The door opened and she stood staring up at an attractive woman. Sam was accustomed to looking up at everyone and wasn't surprised to have to do that here as well. She took a quick look of the woman in front of her, she seemed very fit, and perhaps a couple years older than herself.<br/><br/>Sam shifted slightly adjusting her weight from one foot to the other before she answered the question. She extended her hand to the woman in front of her.<em> "Hello, I'm Sam... erm Samantha Bennett, and I saw your ad on the bulletin board at the grocery store, the one looking for a roommate. I was hoping to talk to you about it."</em>She paused stammering, she couldn't understand why she was able to handle her business situations so much better than this one.<br/><br/>She shifted her weight once again and then attempted to start speaking again.<em> "I'm sorry, I'm just a bit nervous. If this isn't a good time I can come back at a later date."</em>She waited for the woman's response and offered her a shy smile.<br/><br/>She quietly stood there questioning her reasons for being here. She could afford to rent somewhere else, in fact she could even buy her own home if she wanted. Why was she putting herself through this when it made her so uncomfortable. She hadn't shared a home with anyone in so long. Was that it? Was it just the thought of knowing she wouldn't be coming home to an empty apartment every night. It didn't matter because here she was, might as well follow through, she thought to herself, there's no point in backing out now.
