Alan Adas Stays at a Motel
It was late afternoon and Alan Adas was in the cemetery. He was shocked by the mysterious grave that said no one knew when he died. Alan knew he didn’t have much time to sit around. He had to find a place to stay for the night. He was also scared because he didn’t know anyone or anywhere that was safe.
There was a small motel down the street. He entered and walked up to the front desk. He asked to meet with the owner to see if he could work for a night in the motel. The owner explained how they were short staff and there was plenty of extra work to be done. He said Alan would have to work late because he couldn’t take a chance he would leave before doing all the work.
Alan really worked late. He didn’t leave until eleven pm. He did jobs like washing dishes and sweeping the lobby. His boss was so impressed, he gave him an extra 20 dollars to go get himself something to eat. Alan was not feeling good after all he had been through that day. Instead of spending the money, he put it away to use another time.
Alan Adas woke up the next day to a knock on the door. His boss was outside. He told him he performed well yesterday and he would pay him full time but he would have to pay for his stay. Alan would work from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm everyday.
Alan got dressed and met him in the office. He gave him the same basic jobs as the day before. He worked right through lunch to make a good impression. At 4:30pm, Alan went back to his room and relaxed getting ready for a big day ahead tomorrow.
