Chapter 29: Light At The End Of The Tunnel

"I can’t just stay here with you forever though. That would be me leaching off you just for nothing and I genuinely won’t be able to live like that. I’m sorry, Raya." I responded after a little while, heart fluttering about the fact that she was even kind enough to not want to send me back into the street.
She shifted closer to me and took my hand in hers. I squeezed her hand a little while my heart clenched a little in my chest.
"I have an idea of what you can do." She spoke up moments later and I perked up at once, eyes widening as I sat up straighter.
"What’s that?" I asked and she tried suppressing her grin as she spoke next.
"How about you babysit people’s kids?" She asked and my eyes widened even more, because for one, that was something I’ve never considered doing before.
"Me?" I breathed out and she nodded eagerly.
"Of course! You’re clearly great with kids. Parents would kill for someone like you, plus I heard it psys a lot. With a job like this, you won’t be put through too much stress, which means it’s very great for your baby." She glanced down at my still flat stomach at the end of her sentence and I blushed a little because I was still yet to get used to that fact.
"Doing a job like that would make it possible for you to be able to save more money, and that way, you’d be able to easily put money aside for your future and that of your baby’s." She continued and it was clear that she had really thought this out.
