Annalisa sat next to a man on the red sofa in the sitting room of her house, tears running down her face. They weren't real, of course, she just wanted money and pity, and she knew exactly how to get it. "It's... It's just been so hard- I expected the family to take care of me, since I've lost Mama and Papa and Leonardo, but they've barely done anything. The money won't last forever and I'm not getting enough." She said, but what she really meant was 'I want another string of pearls and a new dress, and I don't feel like paying my house payment.'

"Uh.." The man next to her was obviously uncomfortable,"Could I help you in any way? " He asked.

Annalisa grabbed a cigar and lit it, still sniffling,"Well.. I don't know how I'm going to make my house payment." She whined, making her voice ridiculously high- pitched. "I'll pay you back- I promise." She took a drag off of the cigar and then leaned in, kissing the man's cheek, even though she hardly knew him. This was how she got them- she showed them affection.

The man stared at her,"Okay Miss Cavallo, but I expect the money by next month." He said lowly and handed Annalisa the money. 

"Oh thank you! I will I promise!"She hugged the man, and then ushered him to the door quickly, struggling to hide her happiness. She knew she wasn't going to bother to pay him back, but she would deal with that problem later. She then took the money and hid it in the dresser, she knew the shopping would have to wait until a later time, she had work to do. She didn't like how she had to work- she thought she should've been waited upon hand and foot because of the amount of loss she had suffered- but no one else did, so she just had to cope.
