《I want to live》ch. 6 Job
Advertisement
I hear a dissonant sound coming from my right, I reach for the alarm with my right hand and turn it off, it's been three weeks since I began to live with Lynda, I've learned a lot of things but nothing too interesting has happened. I get out of bed and walk to the bathroom. I see myself in the mirror. I’m still getting used to looking at myself. Apart from my hair that now just reaches my shoulders, not much has changed. When I was getting a haircut, the boy who was doing it told me that I would look good with a feminine-like haircut, I just told him to do whatever he liked. In the end, I think it went fine.
“Chrys, I need to use the bathroom!”
I leave the bathroom and Lynda enters in a hurry. I go to the kitchen and begin cooking, today's my turn to make breakfast. I have grown to like cooking, it's very satisfying to see other people enjoy your food. I do a simple meal and prepare the table. I see Lynda coming from the bathroom. She's now in her office uniform.
“Thanks for the meal, Chrys.”
“You're welcome.”
She tries the food and seems satisfied.
“Chrys, how can you be this good at cooking? You just learned to cook.”
“Your food is even better.”
“No, Chrys, mine's not even near yours, you should be the one who always cooks, I'll do all the cleaning.”
“Nope, I still prefer your food.”
I love her food; she has something I can't get enough of. I don't know what though.
“Alright... hey, you should get a job as a chef.”
“It'll be difficult, I haven't studied enough about cooking.”
"Well, today as you search for a job, you may want to concentrate in cooking related ones.”

“You're right, I'll try it.”
We finish our meal; Lynda takes her things and goes out of the apartment. I should get ready too. I put on some nice clothes and grab my phone. I walk outside of the apartment while searching for jobs on the internet.
…
I'm walking to the next place while feeling down. Every place I've been to told me that I need to a school degree but I don't have one, I haven't even been in a school. If no place accepts me, I'll have to do something about the school thing. The next place is a famous restaurant, the advertisement said that they needed some kitchen helpers.
I reach the place, it's a big and fancy place, I approach to the uniformed boy outside the main entrance.
“Hello, I’m here for the job offer.”
“Ah, just go to the back of the building and knock the small white door.”
“Alright, thank you.”
“You're welcome.”
I go to the back of the building through a small passage on the right. I see that white door the boy mentioned. I knock the door and somebody opens it from the other side.
“Hello, are you here for the job offer?”
“Yes”
“Ok, follow me.”
I follow him for some time until we reach a wood door that has a “kitchen” sign in it. When we enter, I see a lot of people working hurriedly. A big man walks in my direction.
“So, why is this handsome face coming to this holy place.”
“He's here for the job offer.”
“Ooh, so you think you're hard enough to work in a place like this.”
“I don't know, but, if I'm not hard enough, I'll just have to try harder.”

“Hahaha, I like your answer, kid. Let's see if you can back up your words.”
“Alright.”
The big man name's Jayle. He taught me all I needed to know as an assistant, after that, he made me help him with lots of things. It was very tiring; I didn't know that cooking could be this hard. He liked my attitude so he hired me. I called Lynda to let her know I got a job and that I had to eat at the restaurant. She congratulated me and told me to take care of myself. We closed the restaurant at 9:00 p.m. and I walked home.
I reach my home; I enter and walk up to the T.V., while changing channels, I stop in a very interesting one. It's about a game called “Dragon's lair”. Ever since I got my smartphone, this game has been popping up everywhere, it's a VR game, you use some type of helmet and it basically transport you to another world, obviously, it's not a real world but it's very similar.
I don't know a lot about this new game but it seems like you can do a lot of things. It has some kind of system in which you level up and get stronger, you can also get a lot of equipment and abilities. If you get something rare you can sell it for a lot of money, in fact you can sell everything for money but only the rare stuff cost a lot. The best thing is that you can only play from 10:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m., that's so you can play even if you work, it has some kind of technology that allows you to play for 8 hours straight and making it feel like an entire day has passed, it also puts your mind in some dream like state so it feels like sleeping. It sounds fun, I might give it a try.
Lynda opens the door.
“hello, I'm home.”
“hi.”
She goes to the kitchen, grabs a snack and sits next to me in the couch.
“Hey, how was your day in the office.”
“It was fine, but more importantly, how was your first day working”
“It was hard... but I guess I kinda like it."
"haha, that's good”
"Hey Lynda, do you know this game called “Dragon’s lair”?”
“Yep, it's everywhere.”
“I’ve been thinking about buying it.”
“That's good, you should make some friends there.”
“Don't you wanna buy it too?”
“No thanks, it's not my thing. If you're going to buy it though, you need to open a bank account”
“Ok, tomorrow I'll open one and buy the game.”
“Good luck.”
