It had been a couple of days since Yuri had been kicked out of his house by his mom and met Otabek and in all honesty, nothing else happened. He hadn't seen the male again since then and Yuri had also not made any attempts to get ahold of him yet, but it didn't truly matter to him. At this point of time, he had far more important things to worry about. For example, not dying from starvation. He had spent the last of his money the other day on that dinner that he had been talking about and besides the few change that he would find on the ground occassianly, he didn't have anything else.

Another problem he could find himself starting to face was his smell, which was making him sick. Hygiene had always been very important for Yuri, but now he didn't even have a place to shower. He tried going into the public bathrooms, like the ones at the park, but they didn't do him much good. He didn't even have soap or anything to wash up with.

Not to mention, he was starting to get fed up with his lack of finding a job. He lived in a city surrounded by 100s of 1000s of businesses. How hard was it to find someone who would take him in? Well, to answer that question, very hard. No matter where he went or who it was, it didn't make a different, they all told him the same answer. No.

He tried hotels, restaurants, fast food places, theaters, cleaning, hospital for cleaning, everywhere. Even schools. No one wanted to take him. He had a good feeling that it was due to the fact that he was an omega.

With small grumble of unhappiness leaving the males lips, he headed over to an empty bench and took a seat on it as he looked around the place and at everyone who was walking by him. "Lucky bastards." He muttered as he watched him in jealousy. It wasn't fair that he got kicked out of his apartment for something that he couldn't even control, but whatever. He couldn't sit there and dwell on it. The best way to get back at his mom would be to show her that he didn't need her which meant getting off of the streets. God knows how he was going to do that, though. 

He groaned and slumped down on the bench, running his hands through his hair. He brought his phone out of his pocket and looked down at it. He wasn't sure how long it would be until his mom finally shut his data off, but he knew that it was going to be only a matter of time. Maybe he should go to play store and just start purchasing random apps that would be charged to his mom's card. That would show her. He grunted and shook his head a little bit. Maybe he should text Otabek to see what he was up to and check to see if he maybe wanted to meet up and hang out.

Reaching into his jackets pocket, he dug around until he found the paper with the number on it and pulled it out. He went to where you start a new message on his phone and put the number in before sending a simple text.

Hey, it's Yuri. You busy?

It was short and down to business and that's how Yuri preferred it. He put the paper back into his pocket and laid his phone face down on his lap as he waited for Otabek to respond back to him. To his surprise, he didn't have too long of a wait. He felt the phone vibrate on his lap and he picked it up, looking at it. 

Not at the moment. Why do you ask?

Yuri hummed a little bit and debated over not responding for a couple minutes. He didn't want to respond too fast, that would make it look like he didn't have a life or anything and he didn't want Otabek to think that. So, thats exactly what he did. He waited about 2 or so minutes after Otabek had replied before sending another message responding back.

No reason particular. I'm just a little bored at the moment and thinking that maybe you could entertain me?

Yuri hit the send button and let out a small chuckle, amused by his own self at his message. He looked down when he got the response back.

Oh, I would certainly love to entertain you. Just name a time and place and I'll be there. 😏

Yuri shook his head a little bit at the emoji that was sent back to him and laughed softly.

How about the ice cream parlor in the park in about however long it takes you to get there? 

Luckily for Yuri, he didn't have too far to walk being he was already in the park. It was just a matter of actually getting up and walking to where the ice cream parlor was.

Sure, that works. I'll be there in about 10 or minutes. See you then.

Yuri shut the phone off after that and put it away into his pocket. There was no use in killing his battery. While he did have his charger with him, thankfully, it was annoying having to constantly look for an outlet or USB plug just so he could charge his phone. He had been trying to stay off of it as much as possible, even giving up his music just to try and save it as much as he could.

Yuri sat on the bench for a couple minutes long before finally deciding to get up and head over to the parlor. He pushed himself up off of the bench lazily and turned around, grabbing his bag. He made his way to where it was and turned, leaning against the wall as he crossed his arms over his chest. His eyes watched the people that walked by him and it suddenly hit him that he hoped to god that he didn't smell. He had forgotten all about that and now would be a good time for the small bit of showering that he had done in the sinks worked. The last thing that he wanted was to scare Otabek off because of his smell.

He huffed a little bit and soon enough his eyes landed on the male.
