It had been a few months since he found himself in your guest bedroom, having couch surfed for a while now his friend, whom Jacob had met during an audition, had recommended him to you due to connections.

Surprisingly you accepted to let him live with you until he was back in his feet and soaring through his career as an actor.

Today was special, mostly because he was just accepted into a show named ‘Euphoria’. He knew how excited you would be for him. You had always tried to cheer him on to success. He felt like a kid getting ready to show his mom his grade A report card, it almost felt real. After all you had tended to him for a while now and treated him just like your son.

So that was why he was waiting in the kitchen patiently for you to come home. Almost beaming at how excited he was to tell you the good news.

“You need anything to eat while you are waiting?”

The chef said to Jacob. As he shook his head and smiled politely, he was far too excited to eat. His appetite was gone.
