I walk up to the busy noises of the city. I get up and rub my eyes. I grab my stuff and head to a local park. I get there and sit down. I feel around in my pocket and realize I have no money. So I get my phone out and go back to the TravelLodge. When I arrive inside I sit down and search up low paying jobs near me. A Safeway about 20 minutes from here is hiring. So I go to the nearest public bathroom and change into something more professional. So I change into a pair of black leggings and a yellow tight fit t-shirt. So I brush my hair and style it. I relax and I head there. When I get there I go up to a clerk. I breath

Uh hi. I was wondering if you guys were still hiring?

A young women about my age turns to me and looks at me with a tired expression.

Yes, Follow me.

She starts walking down this messy narrow hallway to a dark brown door with a gold plaque with the words "MANAGER'S OFFICE" on it. She opens it and lets me pass her. I walk in and see a scrawny male with glasses and very little hair. I smile at him and he tells me to sit down. I proceed to sit down.

(M-Manager) (I-Isabella)

M-What's your name and age please?

I-My Name is Isabella Smith and I am 21.

M-Ok name the place you were born please.

I-Chicago?

M-Ok next question. What position are you interested in?

I-Well I would like to be a cashier.

M-How much experience do you have?

I-Well I have about 1 years worth.

M- Ok well... you... got the job. I'll have a name tag made by tomorrow be here.

I-Ok thank you sir.

I'm about to get up and leave when all of the sudden I feel nauseous. So I sit for a couple minutes before recollecting myself and leaving. I let out a quiet scream of excitement because I just got a job. I go back to where I slept yesterday and just hangout for the day until I notice one of the guys from yesterday. So I approach him. He looks at me with a smile.
(C-Colby) (I-Isabella)
I-Hi we meet yesterday in that abandoned house?

C-Oh yeah you were alone right?

I-Yeah and you were with a camera and a blonde dude.

C-Oh by the way I'm Cole Brock. But people call me Colby Brock.

I-Oh right I'm Isabella Smith but people call me Izzy.

C-Well it was nice to meet you Isabella.

I-Nice to meet you to Colby.

I head back over to my spot and start to yawn. So I get comfortable with my blow up mattress and blankets I brought. I doze off slowly thinking about the mysterious man Colby Brock.
