He got off the bus and walked around as he looked for the address trying to find the house. He soon found the Novotny-Bruckner Residence and looked at the house. He thought it looked nice. He looked at his watch saying "12:50 pm" and walked up the front, rang the bell as someone yelled "I got it!" and opened the door.
"Hi, can I help you?" the good-looking, muscular guy asked.
"Um, is this Mr. Novotny-Bruckner house? I have an interview for the babysitting job."
"Oh yes you are Justin Taylor, am I correct?"
I nodded and smiled.
"Come on in, Justin." "I'm Ben". As they shook hands, Justin entered the house and looked around
"Sorry about that, I know it looks messy around here."
"It's okay, sir."
"Please have a seat and wait for my husband, Michael. He is upstairs changing our son's clothes right now. Uh, do you want a drink?"
Justin nodded and said "Tea, please if you have it and thanks," as he sat down on the sofa and waited.
"No problem" Ben left for the kitchen to get some tea.
Justin got the folder out of his messenger bag as Ben walked in with the tray carrying cups of tea and placed one in front of him. Ben then walked over the armchair, and sat down across from Justin.
"Ben, I have a work history and a copy of references here if you want to look at."
"Okay, let me see it, then." Ben grabbed the eyeglasses from the table and put them on so he could see the papers. as Justin handed them to him.
Justin sat patiently as Ben looked at the papers and muttering. Michael came into the living room carrying a puffy-eyed cute boy with dark blonde hair and brown eyes, sucking his thumb.
"Ah, you are here, Justin! I'm sorry it took so long. How are you doing?"
"It's okay. I'm fine, thanks for asking. Your husband, Ben is looking at my work history and reference papers right now." Ben stopped muttering and looked at Michael.
"Please allow me to introduce our son, Hunter. He's 3 years old."
"Hi, Hunter" Justin waved and smiled as Hunter smiled and raised his little arms to reach him.
"May I?" they nodded in awe as Michael gave Hunter to him.
Hunter giggled as he tickled his belly.
"Um, Hunter never has never gotten close to strangers before. How did you do that?" asked Michael curiously.
"I don't honestly know. I have a little sister and I took care of her until few years ago" replied Justin sadly. Michael and Ben saw his sad look and looked at each other. Ben asked awkwardly.
"Uh what happened? I mean, if you don't want to talk about it? I don't mean to ask"
"It's okay, I haven't seen her since I came out to my parents and my dad kicked me out of the house. When he kicked me out, I walked to my best friend, Daphne's house and Daphne's parents welcomed me. I have survived without my family. Here I am." Justin choked up a bit and gave Hunter back to them.
"Excuse me, where's the bathroom?"
"Just go into the hallway and go to the second door on the left." Ben answered.
Justin ran to the bathroom and as he entered the bathroom, he started to cry softly.
Ben and Michael heard the sound of him crying as they looked at each other.
"I can't believe that, it's sad." Ben shook his head as Michael looked at their son and hugged him tightly.
Hunter was puzzled wondering why he was back in his daddies' arms, while he played with Michael's watch.
Michael saw the papers on the table and grabbed them up to look at them while Ben played with Hunter on the floor.
He was very impressed with Justin's work history and copy of the references. He liked that Justin was an artist and had a lot of very good babysitter experience and excellent references.
"I'm very impressed with these papers, so should I hire him?" Michael looked at Ben as he turned to him and nodded.
"Have you noticed that he's an artist?" Ben asked
"Yea I wonder what kind of an artist he is? Michael asked as Justin walked into the living room.
"Actually, I'm a painter."
Ben and Michael looked up to see him smiling and his face looked clean as he sat on the sofa.
"Are you okay, Justin?" Michael asked
"I'm okay, thanks. I'm sorry, uh, you know, sorry." Justin replied sheepishly.
"It's okay. I'm glad to hear that you are okay, so should we start interviewing you right away?" asked Ben.
"Okay, let's get it over with!" Justin smiled and got ready for an interview.
