Doris noticed that Laura was sitting awkwardly by the low coffee table and suggested, Laura, why don’t you move to the dining table?”

“It’s fine,” Laura replied, feeling it wasn’t too bad. “Doris, I’m preparing to look for a job. I need to make a proper resume

Laura smiled, “Alright, don’t worry about me. Go to sleep. I’ll finish this and then you can take a look and give me some feedback,”

“Okay,” Doris said, giving a thumbs–up. Doris went back to her room, changed into her pajamas, and lay down on the bed.
