Terri and Willa
After going through what they went through, Terri and Willa feel safer than ever before. Willa tried to fight off the zombies earlier but couldn't handle it anymore. She hurt her leg while trying to fight them off earlier but for some reason, she managed to climb up a scaffolding to stay from the zombies while Terri still kept trying to fight them off.
When they got to the safe house, Willa had apologized to Terri for not helping her a lot with the zombies. Terri said that it was okay because she knew that Willa was hurt and that Terri had everything under control. Willa was unable to handle the zombies but is glad that Terri handled a lot of them.
Willa admires Terri for her bravery. Willa felt that she couldn't handle the zombies anymore. Willa sits near a wall next to some stairs with Terri by her side.
"Terri, I want to thank you for fighting off the zombies," Willa said. "I couldn't handle them anymore."
"Willa, you are my friend and I wouldn't want to see you hurt," Terri said. "I think I saw an EMT around here. I should have him look at your leg."
Willa agrees with her friend. "Go find that guy, please. I'll be right here."
Willa sits there and thinks more about her friend in a way she never thought of her. Willa can see why a lot of the fellow male construction workers often check Terri out. Terri is a very attractive woman who certainly has no problem with the way she dresses sometimes to work. Willa sometimes wonders if she dresses that way because she mixes in with her other job. Terri works part-time as an exotic dancer at The Peep Hole and even has an act as a construction worker for her routine.
Willa hasn't had a lot of luck with guys. She can see that Terri had been sexually harassed a few times, but in some ways, she is a little jealous over the attention that Terri gets. Terri, however, isn't like other women as she has stood up to a few of her male co-workers for making sexual passes at her and whistling at her. She even knows that some of them have gone to The Peep Hole a few times for some shows of hers, but they didn't say anything to the foreman or anybody else because they know that she would not like that at all.
Willa thinks about the times that Terri has helped her out when she needed it.
I consider Terri to be a really good friend. In fact, she is one of my best friends, if not my best overall. She has always done things for me and helped me out when I needed it the most.
I can see that she has a lot of confidence in dressing the way she does sometimes at work. I never question it, though. Sometimes I think she looks great in what she wears. Wait, did I just say that?
Could I be attracted to Terri? I mean I like guys, but I know in a lot of ways, I like girls, too. This can't be true. I know Terri is straight. I have known Terri for years. She has helped me with a lot of things, but I can't really believe that I am actually thinking that I am attracted to my best friend.
I have helped her out as well. I have seen a lot of assholes trying to hit on her at work. When we were working the South Plaza recently, I have tried to defend her honor, even though I know Terri can handle herself. It's not easy being the only two female construction workers in the company.
I wonder why she has that other job. She doesn't need to degrade herself like that, even though she tells me that she that the money she makes is really good. Besides, our boss is a real asshole. Or was, I don't know what happened to him. The foreman probably got killed by the zombies or maybe turned into one. I guess we're out a job now. I know Terri has her job at The Peep Hole, but what do I have? I don't have a body as great as hers to strut on stage like that.
I don't know if I should tell her about my feelings. Besides, I know I like guys as well. I have seen some handsome guys in here. I even thought that guy Chuck was cute. I will have to tell her sooner or later.
Terri finds Sven somewhere. "Hey, mister, you help people right?"
Sven nodded his head. "Is there a problem, miss?"
"My friend hurt her leg while we were out there, sir," Terri said. "Can you help her?"
"Sure, I'll go help her," Sven said. "By the way, my name is Sven. What's your name?"
"My name is Terri," Terri said. "Nice to meet you, sir."
Sven and Terri go back to where Willa is and Sven goes and takes a look at Willa's leg.
Terri asks Willa how she is doing. Willa said that she is doing fine and that she had some stuff to think about.
While Sven was helping Willa out, Terri starting thinking about her friend and what they have gone through.
Willa and I have a history and I know we are the only female workers in the company we work at. I have known her for a long time. I have helped her out on many occasions and she has helped me at times.
Lately, I've been getting a feeling that she likes me a little more than just being a friend. I know that she is bi and I know that she has dealt with her share of assholes and bitches.
I can sometimes sense that she isn't happy with the other job I do. It's a living. I mean I dance for horny guys and they tip me every time. I make good money off of the tips and the checks I get. Besides, our asshole foreman hasn't been paying us well lately. That guy is so sexist. He doesn't think that two ladies can do a man's job. I have dealt with my share of sexist assholes in my lifetime. That includes the guys who I work with, always trying to get a quickie from me or something.
I have a feeling that Willa and I are out of a job now. Ever since the zombie outbreak started, some of our co-workers turned into zombies, others were probably killed by the zombies. I could try to help Willa get another job somewhere. Maybe she can be a bouncer or something at The Peep Hole. Despite not fighting a lot of the zombies earlier, she is still a tough woman. I can try talking to her about this.
As for her feelings for me, she knows that I like guys, but I might have to tell her eventually that I don't feel for her that way. She knows that I am straight and I know that she is bi. I will have to tell her soon.
Sven finishes looking at Willa's leg. "Okay, your leg will be fine. You might want to put some ice on it to make it a little better."
"Thanks, doctor," Willa said.
After Sven took off, Terri and Willa began talking about the stuff that they had gone through. Willa also wants to tell Terri something, but Terri already knows what she will tell her. They have the talk anyway. Despite the feelings not being mutual, Willa is still happy to have Terri as a friend. Terri also mentions to Willa about having a job at the strip club as a bouncer. Willa said she will think about it, but she thinks she'll want to do it. That is if there are no construction companies hiring after the outbreak happened.
