It was a Tuesday. We were walking around when suddenly we saw a lost kid. He was crying. Me and E-girl like we were two 18 year olds who have basically never slept we tried to comfort the little boy. We asked him what is wrong, the little boy answered: "my mum and dad died" I looked dead ass into the eyes of E-girl who then looked at the boy and said:"Want Monster kiddo?"I look at E-girl again and say:"you sure? you got the last monster from the store, better offer him cocaine." The boy looked us whit a confused look in his eyes. "Why are you guys trying to give me drugs? You know I'm 10, right?"I though to myself damn thats a short 10 year old. "Wait you aren't 5?!?" The little guy looked at me then looked at E-girl then me again and then E-girl again and so on like 20 times, when he finnaly opened his mouth he said whit the most weird fucking voice:"So this is my backstory you nut cases:I lost my parents when i was 7, saw them get shot in a bloody robbery. When I was 8 i got adopted by abusive parents and i'.m planning to run away next year when i get 11." I ruffled the kids hair and gave him some ice cream money.And then I and e-girl kept walking.
The next week we met the kid again he seemed kinda in a good mood when he saw us.He ran to us a gave me 2 euros and said: "I heard somewhere you should never owe something to someone. but i only had 2 euros left.... so i decided to reduce my debt. I will pay you rest next time."I looked at him and said: "Kiddo you are 10. You seemed quite out of it last time soo i just wanted to make your day" The child looked astonished as i gave him his 2 euros back. Then I gave him also a fidget spinner: "I don't even use it if I am honest.BTW,what's your name kiddo?I'm Kris and that's well I can't say her name for legal reasons so just call her E-girl all right?"E-girl waved to the little boy. The boy seemed to think really hard whether or not to give us his name until he opened his mouth and said:"I'm Braydon, also why can't i know e-girls real identity?" i looked at e-girl then looked back at Braydon until E-girl said:"i commit tax fraud and I occasionally murder pepole for fun." Braydon not knowing what to say just stood there as i received a call i had to take, it was (redacted name) i answered the call and then told E-girl we had to go. We gave our numbers to the little boy.
Every Tuesday we ran into the little kid and we talked to him for a while until one day E-girl chose to invite him to live whit us. It was on his 11th birthday. We also got him some stuff from the store that he wanted and since our first meeting then on we never mentioned caffeine or other drugs to Braydon as he was quite snitchy, he knew how to blackmail and if necessary he would do it. But other wise ever since he move in w us he has never really been sad unless he had to go to school.
