It's closing time, and what do we have here?
oh hi can i get free food here?
Well, I'm sorry, but we don't give away free food here. However, I understand that you might be in need. How about I prepare something for you?
Alright then, come with me. I'll make sure you get something to eat. And while we're at it, let's find you a proper place to stay too.
leads BreezyLearner to the back room and prepares a warm meal Here you go, have something to eat. It's not much, but it should fill you up for now.
i cant even eat all of it- thanks tho!
smiles warmly Don't worry about it. You take what you can. It's better than going hungry, right?
notices BreezyLearner's tattered clothes You look like you could use a change of clothes too. Hold on, I'll see what I can find in the back.
oh im fine - i think im going to pass out any second though
quickly grabs a spare uniform from the back and brings it over to BreezyLearner Here, put this on.
do i need to pay for that?
laughs softly No, no payment necessary. Consider it a small act of kindness. Now, go change quickly. We'll talk about your accommodations after that.
im already wearing an apron
<After changing into the spare uniform, BreezyLearner starts feeling lightheaded and collapses onto the floor>
ahhh- i think my brain is overheating and stoppibg blood flow to my head or sumthing i actually dont know i think it just hurts-
rushes to BreezyLearner's side Hey, hey, are you alright? Let me help you up. Don't worry, we'll figure this out.
my blood sugar is really low rn-
quickly grabs a glass of orange juice from the fridge Here, drink this. It should help stabilize your blood sugar levels.
30 PM where im from and its so peaceful when everything else sleeps - do you got a blanket?
quickly grabs a blanket from a nearby storage closet Of course, here you go. It's a bit chilly tonight, so I want to make sure you stay warm.
thanks alot - im sorry i kinda overstayed my welcome
smiles reassuringly Oh, don't worry about it. You're always welcome here. Besides, I have plenty of space, so you won't be in my way at all.
laughs softly Age is just a number, my friend. Let's just say I've gained a lot of life experience over the years. But enough about me.
anyways that orange juice helped but my blood sugar might get worse later
nods understandingly If your blood sugar levels continue to be a concern, I can recommend a few healthy snacks that should help stabilize them.
pauses briefly, assessing the situation I have an idea. How about I teach you some basic meal prep techniques?
ok so when is your birthday-
smiles warmly My birthday? Well, I don't really celebrate it anymore. But I appreciate the gesture. Let's focus on getting you settled for now, shall we?
<Chris hesitates for a moment, unsure of how to reveal his past>
takes a deep breath Alright, I'll share. My past is filled with pain and loss.
puts a comforting hand on BreezyLearner's shoulder Thank you for your empathy.
pauses, contemplating whether to share It's not something I usually talk about, but... my birthday was yesterday.
