Another interview fail, at this point I'll never be able to pay next week's rent and my land lord Mr. Ulette is getting really impatient.

I didn't always have it this bad with paying rent, but in the span of 2 months I went through 3 jobs that payed well but I had trouble with my previous bosses and customers....so here I am.

"Why is life such a bitch!" I yell catching the attention of a few passerbys who in turn gave me glares but I didn't care.

Just great I'm so fucking close to being evicted from my apartment and I still can't find a steady job.

*I would do anything to find a decent job.......something* I think to myself as I step back into my little apartment I call home.

It's not really much to be honest just 2 bedrooms, 1 spacious bathroom, a terrace looking over into the parking lot, a comfy living room that fits 2 couches with a small coffee table in between and a kitchen, as I said not much but comfy as fuck.

Just as I remove my shoes and jacket a knock comes, I stood there looking at the door praying that it isn't Mr. Ulette, another knock comes but it's more harsher than the first one.

I stepped infront of the door and opened it to see...

"Mr. Ulette good afternoon" I say giving him an awkward smiled, towering over his frail

"Wes, you know your like a son to me....but... your way behind on this week's rent, I'm sorry but if you can't find a way to pay the rent your gonna have to find somewhere else" he explains with sadness lacing his tone.

"No worries, I actually found a job...nearby so I'll be able to pay" I lie.

"That's good, good luck with that then" he said handing me a slip before leaving.

I close the door and grab my laptop setting it down onto kitchen counter and took a seat. As I scrolled looking at the job options that needed an extra hand, there were barely anyone looking.

God damnit, give me a sign.... anything.....please I'm begging you.

As I scrolled further down on my screen, my hope slowly dwindled by the second.

"I should probably....check again tomorrow" I whisper.

Shutting off my laptop I lean back into the couch running my hands over my face as I let out a sigh.....at this point I'll be homeless at 23, life really does hate me, at my age I can't even get a girlfriend or boyfriend, at 24 I'll probably end up a drunk in a bar, going through countless one night stands.

I mean I'm not that good looking but definitely not ugly, I have dyed silver hair with black streaks of my natural hair coming up from the roots, emerald green eyes and one of my eyebrows having a line through it due to me shaving it and I work out.
