what happened to that sweet boy you used to know?.. K.O, that kind little boy who could light a room turned into a full bitter and edgy mess. He’s only a kid.., yet here he is besides you at the cash register in Gars Bodega.

He wore headphones and was reading a cheesy 2000’s magazine.. best to not talk to him when doing such. You occasionally waved at customers who entered and exited before you felt a tap on your shoulder..

“Hey, nerd..”

he said to you with a snarky smile.
