Cursed By Fate

Carl took a bite of the burger, savoring the flavor and texture. It was the first decent meal he has had in days. He watched as the family walked away, feeling a sense of gratitude towards the young girl who had shown him kindness.

As he finished his meal, Carl knew he had to get his life together. He couldn’t keep living on the streets, scrounging for food and shelter. He needed a job, a place to stay, and a fresh start.

He got up from the bus station chair and began to walk, determined to find a way out of his situation. As he walked, he saw a sign post which said ” A bartender is needed urgently” Without hesitation, he decided he was going to take the job , no matter how hard it is he was good at doing the job.

Carl didn’t leave the spot where he saw the sign post until day break. He endured the cold and the way mosquitoes were bustling and biting him.

Finally, it was day break, Carl waited patiently for the store owner to resume but it looked like the person was taking ages to resume work .

” Who are you ?” A young beautiful woman with blonde hair in her forties asked him .

Carl who was already dozing off where he was seated, quickly stood up and dusted his body .

” Hey! Good morning ma’am” Carl greeted her with a broad smile on his face.

” How may I help you?” The woman asked him .

” I saw a sign post which said you are in need of a bartender, I am interested in the job” Carl explained, pointing to the sign post.

” Yea , I’m in need of a bartender” The woman said looking at Carl from his head down to his toes.

Carl noticed the look on her face and said ” I know how dirty and tattered I look but I seriously need this job because I am going through a lot ”

” Will you come inside for us to discuss further?” She asked as she unlocked her store .

” Sure, ” Carl replied.

To his surprise, he was hired on the spot. The store owner, who was so kind that she didn’t look down on him, took pity on him and offered him a job as a bartender. Carl was overjoyed and promised to work hard to prove himself.

” There is something else I want to talk to you about ma ” Carl stopped his boss as she was about to go Prepare for the day .

“What is it Carl?”.

“I don’t have a place to stay or sleep. Please ma’am can I sleep in the bar then before day breaks I would have cleaned up and prepared for the day ” Carl asked his new boss.

“I’m so sorry about that Carl but I just employed you and you don’t expect me to just allow you to stay in my store when I’m not around ” The woman replied.

” I know you don’t trust me ma , But I can assure you that I’m not a criminal ” Carl said. “And I don’t really know anyone around so there is no way I would destroy your store or steal any of your things “.

After thinking so hard , Carl’s boss agreed for him to always spend the night in the coffee shop. She thought of it as an advantage for her also if Carl behaves well .

” But you have to be careful so as not to get caught by my husband. You know I run the store with my husband and he will totally be against the idea if I tell him about it, ” Carl’s boss said.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

” I’ll make sure everything goes smoothly Ma’am ” Carl said excitedly.

As Carl started his new job, he began to rebuild his life. He worked tirelessly, saving up enough money to rent a small apartment. He started to make new friends, people who didn’t judge him for his past.

Although he still thought about his pack and his family, he knew he had made the right decision by leaving. He was finally free to live his life as he wanted, without the burden of his past weighing him down.

As he lay on the chair that night, Carl felt a sense of hope he hadn’t felt in a long time. He knew he still had a long way to go, but he was ready for whatever challenges came his way. He was Carl, a survivor, and he would make a new life for himself in this human world. Carl made a lot of mistakes in the bar because he never had experience but his boss tolerated him .

As Carl continued to work at the bar, he started to notice a familiar face among the regular customers.

On a sunny afternoon, Carl was cleaning the glass cups of wine when a woman walked in with a few guys whose faces also looked familiar.

It was a woman with piercing green eyes, the same woman who had revealed the truth about his friends’ criminal activities.

At first, Carl was wary of her, wondering what she wanted.

The woman noticed the look on Carl’s face when he saw her . ” You have nothing to worry about , I’m just a regular customer here . Don’t worry, as time goes on you will get to see me here regularly.

Carl didn’t believe her because she doesn’t look like someone who comes to bars in the afternoon because of the way she looks .

She also looks suspicious with the men she brought alone . They looked like they were looking for something or so . But something just seems odd about them.

As time went on , she continued to come to the bar, he realized she was just a customer, and they became close which was strange.

One night, as they chatted, she revealed her identity. She was a detective who had been working on the case against Carl’s former friends. She had been keeping an eye on him, making sure he was safe and out of trouble.
