MissingTale(Short Story | His Other Job)

Sans sat in his chair working on the blueprints. The only sound was the clock ticking. He couldn't concentrate. He was distracted today. He heard the his door open.

"Uh...S-sans?" said a shy voice.

"Yeah Alphys?" Sans replied

"Do you h-have the blueprints r-ready yet?" Alphys said coming into his office.

Alphys was a yellow lizard monster. She was short had a lab coat on and wore glasses.

"Oh uh...no not yet...sorry"

"I-it's okay...you uh l-look distracted. A-are you okay?"

"Yeah it's just… I keep thinking something bad is going to happen to the kids. You know?"

Sans had told Alphys about Frisk and Chara the day after they decided to stay with him. He told Alphys because he knew he could trust her. She was his lab partner after all.

"I-I understand Sans. K-keeping up with children I-is hard."

Sans sighed and looked up the clock. It was almost nine.

"Wow today went by slow huh?"

"Uh?" Alphys said as she turned to see the clock, "Oh y-yes it did. Are y-you heading home th-then?"

"Yep," Sans packed up his blueprints and got up "See you tomorrow Alph."

Sans walked out of the lab and walked to the river person's station. He asked to go to Snowdin.

When Sans got there he started to walk to his house when he felt like he was being watched. He looked around but saw nothing. He continued to walk home but felt like someone was still staring.
