MY SHIT, MY LOSS.
A/n: this is a DC fanfic among all of the others that I have tried to write with a good summary.
Well, I'm happy with it =u=
Enjoy.
Comments and critiques deeply appreciated!
Another day of work waited for Moses as he walked to the tall glass skyscraper that shined in the sun like on any other weekday.
He worked for the DC City child line, helping young kids and teens find a foster home to stay at.
It was a good job with the perfect amount of pay, but that wasn't the reason why he got it.
He used to be one of those kids, all lonely with no parents to go to, nobody that cares for you, nobody that really loves, nobody that looks at you normally.
Nobody that can appreciate you for who you are on the inside.
There are millions of kids out there in DC City that are the same as he possibly still is, he wanted to help, and now he is.
Moses entered the 10th floor's office hall and walked casually towards his desk at the far side of it, he set his bag beside his chair and logged onto the computer, starting his work as soon as his desktop wallpaper had shown up.
He checked his work to do, about 60 papers to sign online and 36 calls to make.
As expected, just another day of work.
The sun was starting to die down, Moses has been working for 6 hours flat; no coffee breaks taken from the fact that he doesn't like coffee, no lunch breaks from the fact that he had too much work to do, no breaks in general.
One of his colleagues went up to his desk to find him typing up a letter quickly, his fingers barely touching every key it met with as he zoomed across the keyboard in a rush.
"Dude, you should like, so take a break, it's like 5 in the afternoon and you've had no breaks" His colleague patted Moses on the shoulder.
"Hey man, I'll be okay, just got like 20 more things to do, including the calls" Moses said quickly.
His colleague sighed and tried to think of another thing to get Moses to leave and take a rest, and then it sparked him.
His best buddy Glitch would be at home waiting for him.
"What about Glitch?" His colleague said in a worried voice.
Moses' eyes went wide, the next thing you know he had his bag and he was out the door.
"Glitch, GLITCH! How could I forget!?" he cursed as he ran through the crowd of people on the high street to get to a block of flats nearby.
He raced up the stairs, his long legs making it possible for him to skip some as he got to the 5th floor and right to the end of the corridor.
He stopped outside his door when he heard his house phone ring from inside.
Not wasting any time, he whipped out his keys and opened the door, locked it and picked the phone up.
"Moses here" He said informally, undoing his tie.
It was the DC ambulance, and they didn't have pleasing news.
Moses dropped the phone and ran back out, tears starting to fall from his eyes as he raced down the stairs and out of the block to get into the city again.
Glitch had been hit by a van.
Sucks I know, but I will have more on the way so this will hopefully get better.
