Tarra took a deep breath. "...he was my boyfriend..since i was 13..he'd been my boyfriend..and...last year...today..he was driving in the rain..to..get things for the hotel even though i told him it wasn't important...the rain caused his car to skid...and...before they could get him out of the burning car...it blew up..." she said looking into her hands thinking about the call. having to go to the funeral. everything.

"I'm so sorry," he hadn't been employed for one entire year yet but felt close to his boss already, he didn't feel strange opening standing up and giving her a hug, "At least he's in heaven now, right? Besides, how do you think Dorian would feel if he saw you moping around, right?"

Tarra blushed darkly as she was suddenly in strong arms again. She hadnt felt so safe in over a year and it worried her a bit..but...she leaned against him some crying softly."..your right of course.." she murmured into Laurence's chest.

"Ah...er..." the sudden crying had left Laurance without words, "Um...Tarra please don't cry."
He wasn't sure exactly what to do in such a situation so he just continued hugging her with one arm and at the same time he reached for a tissue,
"Er...here," he said handing it to her, "dry those tears, you're not as pretty when you're crying," he tried smiling again hoping that what he said would make her smile.

She blushed darkly and nodded wiping the tears as she felt him still holding her. She leaned against him again and snuggled against him a bit feeling the warmth."...thank you Laurence..."

"No problem, do you want me to bring you anything?" he asked before loosening his grip but not letting the hug go since she seemed comfortable. But it was becoming a long hug and it was better if he didn't really get this close to his boss, going out to bring her something was a good excuse.

"Alright, if you say so Miss Tarra," Laurance said before leaving the room, "Don't hesitate to call if you need something though," he closed the door.
Laurance first made a stop at his office and put both checks in his desk drawer. He made his way around the hotel looking for anything that they might need, he found that they needed to buy some wall paper and new brooms to replace the old ones. He dropped by the kitchen,
"Hey Alice, is there anything you guys need for the kitchen except groceries? New tools or anything like that?"

Alice came over with a piece of paper. "We need our knives sharpened." she told him.

John had collected and placed the luggage of the customers to their designated rooms and went back down stairs. He smiled at himself, thinking he did a good job. None of the customers gave him trouble and he didn't annoy any of them by saying sarcastic remarks. He went towards the kitchen and poked his head in. "Any food guys? I'm starving!" he said playful, he was hungry after finishing what he had just done, but he wasn't starving so to speak.

Meanwhile Joel gathered up the knives that needed sharpening. Quite a few of them were still sharp enough for use at least and those he left where they were. He just chuckled when John came in to announce he was starving. John was always starving, but in fairness, Joel thought of it as a good thing. Between John and Wyle, Joel never had to worry that Alice wouldn't have someone to feed. Joel loved Alice's cooking as much as anyone, but he seriously did not have the appetite to keep up.

John ate the dish with haste. He loved to eat and was quickly the kind of person to eat a lot! Looking at Alice he smiled and said, "Thank you love, you always save me when I'm in need!" then he turned to Joel and said, "Take care of her! Don't let her over work herself!" and he ran back outside to see if there were anymore guest coming.

"Don't let her... he must be joking. As if I could stop her." He shakes his head and gathers up the dirtied dishes. Joel always found it best to just follow at Alice's heels, like an obedient lap dog, ready to make her work easier where he could.

Alice blushed a bit when he called her 'love'. She smiled to herself, going to wash some dishes.
