chapter 1

"My name is felix, I'm 23 years old" I said to the interviewer.

"Why do you want to work here?" She asked.

"Well, I want to work here because I can't do anything else.." I say, expecting the air to change.

I dont think that's what any interviewers want to hear. "Why is that?" She asked, shifting in her seat.

"Because I can't speak to men." I said, embarrassed. "Oh. So you chose to work at a butler restaurant were mostly girls eat?" She asked.

"Yes." I said, determined to succeed in getting the job.

I'd already been through five interviews today and I was not looking forward to being rejected once again.

"Well, I don't want you to think I'm taking pity on you,  you just have a nice resume so.. let me speak to my supervisor and I'll give you a call when I can." She said.

"Yes mam, looking forward to it." I said with a smile.

I started my walk home, passing a Tom Thumb and a 7-Eleven. I took mostly back roads to avoid people speaking to me. Regardless of gender 🤚😐

I arrived home to find that the door was already open. I slowly pushed the door open more to find my roommate passed out on the couch with a smell of alcohol so strong that you could get drunk from the smell. -if you can't tell my sarcasm than you don't need to be reading this lol-

I'm not very strong so I did NOT carry her to her bedroom. She can sleep on the couch for all a care, as long as she makes sure to clean the living room afterwards.

(She stinks)

I decided that taking a shower would help with my nerves, so I hop in the shower with the hottest water my shower could push out.

After I finished getting out of the shower I wasn't tired and I was hungry and thought "hey, go get food from a rest stop real quick". Stupid.

I walked in and there was only male cashiers. ''Well, don't make small talk'' I thought.

I grabbed a cup of noodles and called it good. I walked to the cashier and laid my stuff down on the counter.

"How was your day, find all the stuff you were looking for with us today?" He asked with the most monotone voice you would ever hear.

I smiled awkwardly and the cashier turned the other way and frowned.

"Your total is $4.99, cash or credit?" He asked. I could tell he was getting impatient with me not talking to him and all.

I took out a five dollar bill and smiled weakly.

"Thanks" he said sarcastically.

He gave me my change and I walked home. I was surprised, normally there were always more than one gender or sex working at the stop.

Once I got home I saw that Maddie had left. I assumed she went to her room when when I knocked there was no answer. Oh well, it's none of my business what she does.

I put water in a my cup of noodles and threw it in the microwave a set it for ten minutes.

Big mistake, it started smelling bad and started sizzling then 💥blew up💥 in the microwave.

"Maddie!!!" I screamed. "What do I do when something EXPLODES in the microwave?!?!"

"Maddie!!! Help!!!!"

"Maddie!!" I yelled, tearing forming in my eyes as I opened the microwave to stop the heat from cooking it even more taking the CrIsPy cup from the box of death and threw it away. I cleaned up after the MeSs, took a shower, and went to BED. I was tired of today and decided to end it.
