I wake up stressed from my nightmare. Sweat pouring down my forehead and making my hair even worse than when I layed my head down to rest. "What time even is it.." I said, as I grab my phone off the charger. The bright screen turns on in my face making my sensitive eyes squint as I see the time. 7:00. For some, it seems early, but for me, it's a terrible sign that I'm going to be late for work. "WHAT? NO NO NO!" I quickly rush out of bed and into my dressers. I search for my uniform with my pin, saying my name and the logo of the name of my workplace. "Why didn't my alarm go off?! Doesnt that thing not turn off? I swear I set it last night!" I mentally start scolding myself for the mishap that I got myself into.

I rush into my car and are careful not to do any thing illegal while I drive in a hurry to my work place. "Bignots" I see the huge sign as I pull into the parking space available. I rush in and look at the time on my phone. "7:46!? I could have sworn I left at 7:20!" I said to my boss who was already waiting for my arrival. "Well, luckily for you, you won't have to worry about that anymore. It isn't the first time you left me to open up! Nor the second!". I was only half listening to the red head when I heard her next words. "####, I'm sorry but I'm gonna have to let you go. The only reason I really needed you honestly was to open up. I guess that was too hard on you.". I looked up to her, shock and dread filling my face and mind with the already overwhelming pressure of college. "What?! Please give me another chance I swear to you I will do better!". The redheaded shook her head. " I'm sorry, but I'm sure that scholarship will hold up the college funds. Hopefully you can try somewhere else but I'm done with your issues here." She said, leaving me shook.

I walked out of there, tears on the brink of my eyes. Sure, I didn't like the job much but it was all I had! If I dont find a new job soon, I might lose my apartment! I decided to head home after sulking in my car. I hit up my uncle, Henry, and asked him if he could help me out. I knew he owned a large company so maybe he could help me find somewhere to work. Maybe somewhere to live IF I'm lucky.

Henry: I'm so sorry sweetheart! I wish i could take you in but I don't have really any room in my house nor the time to get you settled in. I have, however, may be able to help get you to settle somewhere if your up for it.

####: what? Really? That would be great! I love you so much! Ty!

Henry: I wouldn't thank me yet, you might not like it. Also you could work where you live since it would be easier for you.

####: I would say that's great but you aren't making much sense..

Henry: are you willing to have a room inside the pizza plex?

I was shaken. A room in a PIZZA PLEX? I already had ENOUGH stress around people! If I dont find someone I know there.. IM SCREWED! What do I do if I find a worker walking around?!
______
Henry: I'll even get someone to introduce you to the animaltronics and employes since I know your a hit shy around people at first!
____
Well that solved issue number one.. now On to issue number two.
____
####: well, I guess I could give it a try if I can take my things with me, mostly my phone and bible. But what would I even do for work? And my pay?

Henry: well we could use daycare assistance considering the fact that some kids have been complaining about sun's slow work from all the kids that show up. Also why wouldnt you be able to take your stuff? You'd most likely get the old skater Bonnie room so no need for the worry of losing space. So what do you say?
____
I can't just say yes instantly! I have to think about this stuff an-
______
####: I'll do it.
