The next room
Now that the bedroom is empty, they can turn their attention to the living room. Everything stinks. Behind the couch they find a vacuum cleaner that has been retired for years. There are food scraps and rubbish everywhere. In disbelief, Yvonne realizes that the old lady is sleeping in the midst of this filth. On this rotting couch, under damp, moldy blankets. The room reminds the sisters of a garbage dump.
Even the most experienced cleaners would have turned up their noses at this apartment. There is not a word in the dictionary that can describe how bad this property was. But Yvonne and Angela are doing everything they can. “We’re going to get this job done, even if it kills us”, says one. “That’s not unlikely”, says the other.
Time for the next room!
