Extra Terrestrial Adoption (Private with Diapered Avenger)
Mark shuts and locks the door of the sandwich shop, letting out a sound that's a cross between a yawn and a groan. The 19 year old young man had just finished a 13 hour shift on what was supposed to be his day off, at least until his boss called him in to help out so he could ditch out...with the usual threat of "do it or you're fired" having been a good motivator to get him in. Also knowing said boss he wasn't even hoping for overtime from this surprise shift.
As Mark walks down the street he reflects on the week he's had, seeing as how the past 13 hours could almost be called the high point. It had started with him getting dumped by his girlfriend, during which she'd also revealed that she'd been cheating on him with at least two of his so-called friends. Then of course his step dad had decided to "borrow" a chunk of money from his savings account again without asking, again. Naturally, his mom had been quick to come to his defense, assuring Mark that his stepdad would pay back all those surprise loans once he got a good job...which would happen any day now she was sure. Finally, the crappy internet of his apartment building had caused him to miss out on registering for any of the classes he'd wanted, leaving him with the most inconvenient times and worst professors imaginable, so he already knew the whole next semester was going to suck.
"God damnit!" He finally just shouts into the air as he reaches the door of his building. "After all this...something...anything has gotta happen...I don't care what it is I just desperately need some kind of change..."
