River Smith
River
(Sigh, they kicked me out. Now what am I supposed to do? Without this job, I'm totally helpless. University fees need to be paid. I have to manage the money before this month ends, or my studies are done for, that's for sure.)
River thought briefly and returned to his old apartment. The room appeared decently clean but still felt shady. However, he wasn't in the mood to dwell on it. Deciding to search for new jobs the next day, he went to sleep on an empty stomach due to lack of funds for food, saving every penny for his future studies.

(Sincerity is the most notable trait he has.)
Suddenly, a loud banging on his door jolted River awake as if he hadn't been sleeping at all. Stress was evident on his face; he frowned, visibly annoyed.
He opened the door without hesitation, and the next moment, someone jumped on him.
River
Sen! What are you upto? So early?
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Ah? Is that so?
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
it's 7.30 AM!
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Is this early?
He jumped down. With a naughty grin he than looked up to River.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
I thought you will be studying even now. (Said while looking around and saw no pen and papers on the desk.)
River
Ofcourse I'm not nerd 🤓!
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Says the person who gets stuck to study.
River
I'm having another thoughts on this.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
It's fine.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Sometimes we stuck but it's just for a moment.
River
I know better than you do.
River
Sit down will you, I have to fresh up.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
River, are you alright?
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
(Yesterday that old man fired you from work. You must be feeling down.)
River
(Chuckled) I'm fine. it was just a work. I can search somewhere else today.
River
I'm sure there must be other place to work for someone like me.
River
You are worrying over nothing.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Likewise, I know. I'm not trying to comfort you.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
I'll accompany you in your job search today. I don't have anything else to do.
He knows how River is—stubborn, and persistent. River never relies on anyone. He would deny any offer to pay his rent and university fees without a second thought. In this situation, Sen can do nothing but accompany him. It is the least he can do and the most River can accept.
River
(I can't deny him. He won't listen and will come either way.)
River
Alright wait here I will go and fresh up then we will go.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
(smiled)
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Okay go first. I wanted to eat with you, so I have packed food and came here without eating anything. So I'm hungry now hurry up.
Saying this, Sen pushed River into the bathroom. River adjusted, smiled, and didn't say anything. Sen knew that River understood his concern, and they didn't need to express it in words. This was the greatest thing about their friendship—they understood each other very well.
Name: Sen Jacks
Age:21
Parent: Sophia Jacks and Milo Jacks
Status: Student
Gender: Rare Dominant Alpha
(Naughty but caring.)
(Free sunshine and the most famous young master of Jacks Family.)
(Wants to help River in anyway possible.)
River emerged from the bathroom and sat opposite Sen. He couldn't help but pat Sen's head, which annoyed Young Master Sen the next second.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Don't do this. It makes me feel younger than you!!
River
(Smiled) Because you are younger than me.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
River don't treat me this way. I don't like it.
River
How did I treat you?
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
You know very well!
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
(Sigh) I'm worthy of being your friend. So don't try to make me look like your brother!
River
Alright, now let's eat. I don't want to be late.
This has happened countless times. For River to have brotherly feelings towards Sen is very natural. From childhood until now, only Sen could come this close to him. Sen is a friend but also like a younger brother to River. River feels blessed to have met Sen during his college days. At that time, the young man before him was very brave and reckless. Now he has changed into a sensible and careful man. River couldn't help but sigh at this realization, while Sen looked at him with his mouth filled with food.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Why aren't you eating?
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Just staring at me like I'm a magazine you just flipped through.
River
Yeah, you are a magazine. The first thing I saw this morning. Mr. Sen Jacks Magazine.
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
I seriously can't do anything about you, can I?
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
(Flipped his hairs sarcastically.)
Sen Jacks (Best friend of River)
Eat and we will head out.
In this way, he shows his maturity, but River is aware that Sen is still a child—a very protected and cared child—while he himself has no one in this world. However, he doesn't dwell on such thoughts. River is content with whatever he has up to now. He is thankful that he is still alive after enduring so many years of hardship.
After a while, they went out. River began by searching at the bar and other places where singing is a job. Well, he can sing very well. His last job was singing at a bar to entertain the customers, but he was kicked out because he didn't allow others to touch him.
After searching for half a day, he found a place where he was offered a job. It was a restaurant owned by an old man in his nineties.
Peter Anderson
So tell me, what you do?
River
I'm a student sir. I completed my college just this year and have to join my university. As you can even guess, I'm lacking money to pay fees for further studies. I want to work here to earn some living.
Peter Anderson
alright, come from tomorrow. We don't have much staff and I needed someone for afternoon work. The other workers are very old and can't do work for late hours.
River
Thank you very much sir. i will join from tomorrow afternoon.
This made both him and Sen happy. From that day on, he didn't have to change jobs anymore.
But soon the university would start. The work he did at the restaurant barely covered his fees. So he started doing late-night shifts and took on additional work, for which the old man naturally paid him more. This allowed him to cover both his fees and living expenses.
