Many footsteps are heard from the concrete sidewalk next to the busy street, Axel walks wearing his dark brown jacket with wool that was white tho now brownish from of how old it is, he has his hands in his pockets, the sun shines a bit, peeking through the clouds, combined with a breeze of a cold wind.
On these busy streets sit many buildings overlooking the mess, one of them caught Axel's eyes, they land on a flyer that's been sitting on the wall of a post office, it's moving with the wind, almost falling off, Axel grabs it and takes a look, moving while looking, he slowly leans himself to the brick wall so that other people can pass him
"a job?" he says in silents to himself
"i could use this"
He reads further
"now where is it..."
He looks up from the paper with a questioned look to find the building that's seen on the paper, he slowly walks while his eyes continue to go back and forth from the paper to find a nearby building, while walking he bumps into some people, he doesn't say anything whatsoever.
When he found the building spotted in his eyesight, he sees people poorly dressed standing near it, some are smoking, some talk, some rethink their lives while playing with some grass sprouts that grow inbetween the tiling of the sidewalk, he slowly makes his way towards the building accross the street while still holding the paper, the people look at him, a bit scared, he doesn't bother to look back.

"why did you choose this job?"
The man that sits infront of Axel says while he gets his elbows on his wooden red brownish desk and leans in. silence is filling the room, faded noises of machines are heard behind the walls, the walls are not that thick, the building is old itself.
"i uhh- i neede-.. I've seen how hard it is for the poor ones, i wanted to show them some appreciation.."
"i see your point for them, have you've been familiar with some type of care to humans?"
"i did some helping in the house for my mother a few years back, she had dementia unfortunately"
"i see, we will help you further learn the responsibilities we take here, but aside from that, i see potential in you working here, you start at 8 in the morning, lunch is at 11:30 then the day ends at 11, are you ok with that mr.."
"Griffin, yeah yeah ofcourse"
"then everything is settled, i will see you next week, have a nice day"
"yeah."
Axel stands up and walks out, shutting the door, in the baby blue hallway are a few people talking, while holding blackets in their hands, axel walks past them, they talk quieter, Axel now standing outside he walks back towards his appartment a few blocks away.
Standing in the small room of the building that's now his job, the building itself is almost standing, everywall is baby blue, the room Axel is settled in after the explanation he had gotten, the room has shelves, a desk infront with paperblocks with names on it with a gab in the wall before him where plastic glass is placed, previous homeless attempted braking it when the worker couldn't find the specific bedspread the man wanted, he got away with a broken nose and a few bruises, the man turned out to have killed his wife before his arrival, he was arrested after the police got called of his assault to a worker.
The door opens and a guest comes in, A man in his mid 30s, wearing small glasses, he has brownish grey hair with a mustache, the most noticeable thing is his birthmark set in his left cheek, he is wearing a red scarf with a dark grey jacket and brown pants, the scarf is around his mouth so you can only see the upper face.
Axel looks up, his first interaction with a homeless, he never cared for them, he threw a bottle out of his window almost hitting one, it was not his intention but still.
"w.. welcome, what brings you here?"
The sentence has an akward sensation to it, the man shoves the scarf off his chin
"hey, i would like to stay, for like, 4 days.. is that possible?"
Axel's eyebrows go up, he fastened his head to the already signed in homeless list, on that you can see their names, needed supplies they have to return, and for how many days they stay, there are 2 spots still remaining to claim so he looks back to the guy
"it is, what's your name?" Axel asks
"full name?"
"yeah"
"Peter Banks"
"alright, Peter, here...are...- Axel comes down and crouches to lower himself, he grabs a bedspread, a sleeping cloth and a towel that is folded neatly on the shelfs "-the needed supplies, the cafeteria is around this corner to the left, and down that halway you will notice a big door, there is the room, oh and the shower is further down that hallway, you will notice."

"hey Axel, ou ok over there?" Axel turns around at the door of the room, his now coworker Beth walked in
"are you practicing your first costumer?" she chuckles
"no, i have-" he returns his head to where the guy was standing, but he is nowhere to be found
"he walked off i think" he stands there for a while with a questioned look on his face
"rude" he finally says in a low voice.
"alright, well, can you hand me over the agenda forum? it's there on your right, Edgar wants to reschedule his stay"
Axel still questioned, he grabs the forum and hands it over to her
