Now Gladly used to
work at a local pâtisserie.
Her father drank too much and she needed money to buy books.
She wished to start a bakery of her own someday.
She baked birthday cakes for her friends every year.
She made a jelly-roll once for their landlord and he let go
of that month’s rent which they couldn’t pay, which was often the case.
Donny never celebrated his birthday.
Nobody made him a cake and he never complained.
Two months after Gladly wrote on Donny’s door, September had
arrived.
It was Donny’s birthday, and he was out of bread.
Now whoever wrote to me saying they have no idea what's going on, here are the links to "Previously on UPSTAIRS":
