Chia started her new job at Grillby's. She wore a tux similar to Grillby, had a little note pad on her, for her to write down orders. The monsters in Snowdin did keep Chia being there secret, only for Grillby. They respected him. They still hated the fact that a human was there, just wanted to kill it, take its soul to Asgore.
Her job wasn't bad, except for the monsters in the bar snarling at her, glaring at her, being rude towards her. It hurt, but Chia did her best to stay strong. She wasn't scared of the skeleton brothers anymore. She didn't go near them very much, didn't want to bug them. If she wasn't at work, she would be in the 3rd bedroom that Papyrus showed her, or in the bath. Red had refused to talk to her, he honestly found her really damn annoying, stupid.
Red went to Grillby's everyday, mainly to sit at the bar for a bit, talk to Grillby, or fall asleep. He slept a lot. Being a slacker was kinda his thing. It was night, trash needed to be taken out the back.
Grillby: Chia,take out the trash. The dumpster is outside in the back.
Chia got the trashbag out, it was heavy for her, so she was trying to hurry, just get it over with. After throwing the bag into the dumpster, as she was catching her breath, she noticed something in the snow. Her eyebrow went up, she leaned down, brushed off some snow, to find a baby goat monster,only a week old, cold, covered in snow.
Chia: Jesus fucking christ-!
She quickly took the baby, ran inside.she went back to the lobby area, cradeling the goat in her arms, noone saw the infant. Chia was trying to figure out what to do. Grillby saw chia, grabbed her by the shoulder, growled at her as a warning.
Grillby: What do you think you're doing!? Get back to work!
Chia: S-sir, I highly apo-apologize! B-b-but I couldn't let it just freeze to death!
Grillby's eyes widened, was silent. All of the monsters started to approach chia, grillby.
Doggo: Grillb, want me to kick her ass for such disrespect?
Chia: I really am sorry,i-its just,its just a baby-! I-i found it outside when I was t-taking out the trash-!
The baby goat opened her eyes. They were milky.
Grillby: *shudder* o-oh god-! Its blind!
Red was waking up from his nap,rubbed his eyes, hearing the commotion. He looked over,trying to figure out what the hell was going on.
The baby goat started to sob. Red then realized that Chia was holding a abandoned baby goat. His eyes widened, he quickly went over after calling papyrus, telling him what was going on.
Chia was trying to calm the baby down. It didn't work.
Red: *frowns* it can't hear you..
Grillby: it can't see,can't hear..that explains why it was abandoned.. *sad sigh*
Red:...I'll take care of her. I know how to care for kids.
Red actually felt really bad for the infant, softened up.
Chia: I will too...
Grillby:..can I see the child?
Chia let grillby hold her. Grillby took the baby to his office. He came back out with her,had put cute pajamas on her.
Grillby: this used to be my daughter's. She can't fit in her old clothes anymore. I'll bring over some more.
Chia: thank you..
Red took the baby goat,was holding her. His fatherly instincts were kicking in,he didn't even know he had them.
Grillby: Chia..can I be her caregiver?
Grillby was actually being nice,also had softened up. Chia nodded. Grillby smiled, actually pulled her into a hug,which surprised her.
Grillby: Thank you so much!
Red:..hmm..I think I will call you Buttercup.. like the flower..Tori and her kids loved them...
Chia: Toriel...you mean the older goat that chased me?
Red: *nods* ..Old lady isn't actually so bad..things just..are really fucked up down here...
Chia was silent. She was starting to realize why everyone is so damn rude, violent. She couldn't believe she didn't see it. Everyone here all lived their own hell, were just trying their best to live their life.
Papyrus showed up. He went over,got on a knee,gently scratching behind Buttercup's ear. A weak bleat came from her, liking that.
Red and papyrus stood up,Red still holding Buttercup. They began to leave,Red gestured his head to chia to come home with them. Grillby excused her,let her leave early.
