Chapter 304 THE MORNING BEFORE HE DIED (2/2)

But since his mom died from a car accident a couple of years ago, he had no choice but to stop attending school and focus on working his ass off to earn for a living and support himself.

Now, why is he at the city???

Well, he had no choice but to sell their small property in the province to pay all of their bills. Especially the funeral service for his mom.

Then an old fortune-teller in their hometown told him that bad luck will keep following him if he will continue to live in that place.

She even advised him to start his new life in the city and told him that he will be going to meet someone here and that someone will going to change his life.

She also added that a black shadow was trailing after him and it will just keep on bringing misfortune upon him so he must find that someone who will change his life.

Because apparently that special someone, whoever he or she is, he bet it was a 'she' is also the only one capable of protecting him from that black shadow.

Well, of course, he knows that all of that sound absurd and cliche.

But hell yeah!

What's wrong from being a little bit superstitious and careful.

Just follow her advice!

There is no harm believing the words of a fortune teller every now and then, right?

So here he is!

Braving the bustling city life.

One more good thing about this job that he got, is he has a very understanding and supportive superior.

Even though his shift is only four a hours a day, he is allowed to stay in the cafe for as long as he wants---and that is what he always do!

Of course!

Free WIFI!!!

With that, he was able ; survive being a web novelist without worrying the bills for internet connection.

He always stays inside the cafe until it closes and within those times he write his novel and upload to an online reading site that also pays well.

That is his life. He do the work, go home, eat, sleep and repeat. There is no parties, no fun and most of all... NO GIRLS!

Aiden started his brisk walking as he made his way towards Star Barracks, the cafe where he was currently employed.

The cafe is located somewhere in the corner of the city where people rarely visit. That is why customers in Star Barracks is really sparse.

Maybe this is also the same reason why Aiden was allowed to stay for as long as he wants.

So that, there will be at least someone to use those abandoned tables and chairs.

Since they rarely had a customer to occupy them, to begin with.

The business was almost dying. In fact, it was a great wonder how Star Barracks can still continue to operate and continue the business despite its status.

It was also located somewhere that literally looked like the place where things went to die.

It was a great gloomy concrete cube that stuck out of the beautiful stores in the city like a giant sore thumb.

Aiden once heard from one of his workmates before that Star Barracks was considered a top notch cafe 50 years ago.

But now, it looked nothing like a dilapidated mess. A business that was on the brink of bankruptcy.

The inside of the cafe ; was not much better either. Gray walls, gray carpet, and even gray plastic tables and chairs that only added to dreariness of the place.

It was not the most stimulating place to go and relax but that is all they had. The business can no longer afford having renovation considering that the business is not doing well.
