Liam Leighton


I'm working at a few part-time jobs here in Los Angeles, it's pretty thrilling as they might say. On some days I could eat a whole meal, sometimes I could eat half or even a quarter of it. Yeah, that's life for these few months. I'm really grateful for it though. And I also met a bunch of people here. Like my roommate, boss, and a bunch of other people that inspired me.

"Hey, Liam.

Over here!" My roommate called me.

"Yeah, Ann?" I walk closer to her.

"Our shift is ending pretty soon, do you want to go to some gay bars downtown?"

"Um, I don't think so. I need to work in another place."

"Liam, you don't need to work 24/7 y'know."

*sigh* "Yeah, I know that. but I still need to have some cash."

"Ah, alright my shift is over now, see ya." Said Anna while leaving our workplace.

I walked away immediately after packing my stuff.

*sigh* "Winter will be here next month, I need to buy a few coats." I grumbled.

"Finally!"

I went straight to the cashier and had a 4 hours shift. Yeah, this is my everyday life.

"Liam, you may go home now, your shift is over."

"But there's a bunch of people still in line."

"That's alright Liam I could take-over your job."

"No, I'm alright sir I don't have any work after this."

"Oh, okay just go to my office after your shift is over."

"Okay sir, noted."

I continued my shift for an hour I guess.

*Knock knock*

"The door is unlocked."

"Is there anything that I could help you with sir?"

"It's alright Liam, I'm just surprised by your loyalty and responsibility."

"Oh, I see."

"So what do you do after the shift is over?"

"Oh, I usually go back to my apartment, and yeah I basically sleep afterward."

"So you never go to any party or bars?"

"I never go to places like that. When I took my day off I only wandered around this city.

I just don't feel like wasting my money on that stuff."

"Oh, I see. Thank you Liam you may go home now."

"Thank you, sir."

*Sigh* "Ugh, I need to tidy up my room."

"Um, what should we play? I'm feeling this one."

*Few hours went past*

*SIGH* "Why did I do this to myself? It's 1 am and I've changed my whole bedroom layout."

*CLACK* "Who's that?!"

"Ann? you there?" I went to check up on it.

.

.

.

.

.

"It's the worst bar ever!"

"Why? what happened."

"I give this dude a bj, he's the worst ugh."

"Oh, can't relate.

I'm just joking Ann. I mean there's nothing that I could do. do u want some food?"

"Yeah sure."

.

.

.

.

"Do you want some eggs?"

"Anything is alright."

"Okay."

.

.

.

.

"Here you go."

"Woah, this is good. I love it."

She decided to sleep after eating the omelet.
