Work Visit
Trish gets a visit from her younger sister Naty while at work
Chapter 1
Trish lifted up her brown glasses, adjusting them back onto her nose, she then blew some of her hair away from her forehead. Her little sister had broken her watch and instead of throwing it out like most people would do, Trish thought that she'd have a try at repairing the thing. Sitting in front of a magnifying glass for hours, carefully taking the watch apart to find the faulty component had taken a toll on her so she decided to lean back for a while. Suddenly, she was interupted by the sound of someone knocking on her door. "Come in!" she answered. Naty opened the door and walked inside, holding a glass of apple juice.
"How's it going?" The younger sister asked, still feeling a bit guilty about breaking her watch. The pieces of the watch were all scattered across the table, it would almost be a miracle if Trish could put the watch back together without any missing pieces. "Well- I think this wrecked cogwheel is why the watch won't turn it's pointers. It gets caught on itself." She took the glass of apple juice and drank it quickly, so quickly that she chokes on it and starts to cough.
"Hey! Be careful." The younger sister said, slightly worried. She glanced at the mess at the table again. "Are you.. sure you shouldn't be keeping the parts in a box or something? What if you put it together and notice that something's missing?" Trish scoffed a little. "I know exactly where everything is! What you see is a mess is my way of organising." She said proudly.
"Okay- Whatever you say sis. I'm gonna leave you to it now." Naty said and walked out of the room, closing the door behind her. Later that evening when Trish was almost done repairing the watch, she noticed that she couldn't find the small pointer anywhere. Maybe she should have taken her little sister's advice, she thought to herself.
