This is our proposal — She answered with a smile, as if she had just proposed something completely normal.

< p > I looked at my husband. He sat next to, silent, with his eyes stuck in the countertop

< p > — You want us to pay you vacation ?!

< p > We've lived with them for a year.

< p > temporarily.

< p > At least we thought.

< p > after the wedding we did not have for rent, and they offered that we can stay with them, we will not stabilize

< P >But with each month we felt that their help has its price.

< p > — We pay bills! & Amp; MDASH; I said, feeling my blood began to boil.
