Why don't you get a job?
Inspired by the video above.
Cross sighed, running a hand up his smooth skull. This was not his day today.
With the new immigration laws set up, he was not allowed a job anywhere. He couldn't even take his family back home.
His eyes landed on a young lady wearing a blue dress.
"E-excuse me-" he began, trying to get his attention.
"!!" the lady turned toward him. "What-"
"Please, I need help. I... I need to feed my family. I-I need something, anything! Please help me!"
The lady looked at him up and down.
He wasn't the best sight to see.
"...Why don't you get a job?" she asked.
This wasn't a 'WHY DON'T YOU GET A JOB?!' insult.
It was a genuine question.
"...I-I tried getting one, but the Immigration Laws won't allow me to." he sighed, defeated.
"You're not from here? You look like a local." she gave... a sort of reassuring thing.
"...I am actually from Spain and... I really need help feeding my family. Please, even if it's just a dime, I'll take it. I need the food to feed my family." he was desperate.
Was she going to leave him too?
She looked at him, considering.
"Take me to your family, please?" she gave a request.
"W-" he looked up.
"Please take me to them." she asked again.
He gestured her to follow, taking her to the small fort made of old cloth.
There was a black skeleton and a small white one.
"D-daddy, who is this?" the small skele asked.
"Someone who might help us." he said.
She took one look at the family and scanned the area.
"Ah, there is a pizza store nearby. Wait here." she ran.
"W-" Cross frowned.
She came back 30 minutes later, carrying a plastic bag.
"Here, I've bought you pizza, big enough to last you for two days. And here's some mineral water. We living beings need it to survive." she passed the bag.
"T... thank you so much..." Cross broke down in front of her.
"...I'm sorry I can't do more." she sighed. She couldn't offer them a job because of his statement. The immigration law won't allow it.
"N-no, thank you, from the bottom of my heart. Because of you, Nightmare and Lotus don't have to go hungry. Please, may I know my angel's name?" he asked.
"...I'm Lynx Mochi, and I'm happy to help." she smiled, walking away.
