"Um excuse me? Do you possibly looking for a worker here?"

"Oh sorry. Currently we are full. I'm really sorry"

"It's okay! Have a nice day Sir!" Felix smile then bow a little at the man.

After step out from the shop, he sigh. He's been looking for job back and forth but still none. 'Why does finding a job was this hard!' He pouts then walk away while buying some bread on his way back.

Few step ahead he saw a man who look so frustrated standing beside his car. The man keeps calling someone few times but still didn't get any answer. He approaches him slowly "Excuse me Mister, what happen?"

The man who were wearing black sunglasses and black suit stand straight and eyeing Felix up and down. Felix fidget, maybe his appearance were not up this man taste, moreover he was poor.

"My car.. it's can't be started.." he sigh then decide to kick the tire. Felix was startled at the man roughness.

"Don't kick him! You will hurt him"

The man look at Felix dumbfounded. He raise his eyebrows at him "sorry? This old car wasn't human? Why did you said I hurt it?"

"But still, car has feeling too. Everything has feeling same like human. Only we who didn't know and can't see them."

The man brushes Felix off. That man stand with his arms akimbo and look up at the sky before huffing angrily clearly he was upset. "Gosh! Why does today's such a bad day! This fucking car broke down, the weather was hot then out of nowhere come out this dumb guy!"

Felix eyebrows twitch at that sentence. He may be poor but he's not dumb. "Suit yourself! You such an arrogant person I ever met in my entire life!" Before Felix could walk away the man suddenly grab his arm making him stumble back and dropping the bread.

"Wait—!"

"Oh no!! My bread!!" Felix crouch down to pick it up but sadly the bread was already full with dirt. Felix bite his lips and look up angrily at the man.

"It's not my fault. Why are you making such a fuss over spilled bread? Just buy another one. It's easy."

That is why Felix hate rich man. They just don't understand. 'But this is the last money that I had. What will they eating for breakfast?' As the thought of his family reach him, his eyes started to pools.

"Forget it, you rich guys just do and speak anything without ever thinking. Just because you have money doesn't mean you're clever!" He tries to blink away the tears.

The man pinch his nose bridge. "Listen. I'm sorry okay? I didn't mean to make you drop that tasteless looking bread, but that bread can be buy again."

"I can't. That's the last money I have.."

The man seal his lips. He felt sorry for this unknown kid. "Loo—"

"It's okay Mister. Don't pity me, I can buy again next week. I'm sorry for getting angry at you earlier. I should've known myself. I'm sorry" Felix quickly bow at him and turn back to excuse himself.

"Wait! Can you help me?"

Felix turn around his feet and stare at him. He can see the man scratching his head while looking down at the ground. "Um, actually I've never been to this town by myself beforehand, and I don't know where is the workshop around here"

Felix hesitant at first, but that man seems like he's not from around here. He then sigh and look at him.

"My brother surely will know one of the mechanic around here. Would you like to come home with me?"
