Harper's POV
I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock. I stopped it and stifled out a yawn. I sat up and stretched a bit before going out of bed. I go to the bathroom to take a quick shower and wore some casual clothes. I dried and comb my hair then went down the stairs to cook some breakfast for me and my mom.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoOw4S5zcX

My mom was already setting up the plates when I arrived.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfkZzeJpCM

"Morning mom. I'll be going out today. Will try to look for a part-time job nearby.", I said.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5PEY6gP68

"Morning sweetie. What made you decide to get a job?", she asked.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy4zfmib9y

"I want to earn some money to help you mom. With dad gone and all. Besides, I want to try changing up my daily routine everyday.", I replied.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYL2DL669r
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSOU0KcoyJ
"Okay. But try not to worry about me. I'm doing fine at work and earning enough money for the both of us. If that's what you want, then I'll allow it.", my mom said.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYL5OSAl9j

"I cooked some eggs and potato croquettes. Let's eat!", I said.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0o0Sx3Uck

We both ate breakfast and I told her I'll be leaving after eating. She nodded and I placed my plate and utensils in the sink. I waved goodbye and left the house. I removed the lock on my bike and moved my bike to the road. I mounted on my bike and rode it, going to nearby coffee shops and bookstores.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3plJ3NgG8

I asked several coffee shops if I could apply for a part-time job but they declined since they weren't open for any job openings. I also tried asking the bookstores but they did not need any since they were fully staffed already. I exited the last store and let out a big sigh. Then I saw a park nearby. I went there and saw some pop-up stores and vendors selling food and balloons.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPNV43vqX0

The balloon vendor caught my eye.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZsT4hiF6K

"Hi there! May I ask how to apply for a part-time job here at the park?", I asked.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jyY4fjOw1

"Hi! You may go to the town park's office over there.", he pointed at the small office near the lake.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyiOvSYrFa0

I thanked him and ran to the office. I entered and saw a man checking through some files on his desk.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zx4uhRKCw

"Hi sir! May I ask if I could do a part-time job here in the park?", I asked.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlSTF6qMjCP

"Hello miss! Yes you may. You may look through this list of jobs available here and fill out this application form. Place also the job you want to do on the top right of the page.", he explained.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIBPhlJVKw
259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDYNvs4Qnz
"Thank you!", I smiled.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMTxJBk8286

I looked through the list of jobs and I picked two of them: musician and balloon vendor. I filled out two application forms and gave them to the man. He looked through them and gave me a thumbs up. Then he told me to let him know the schedule of when I could do the jobs. I told him that I could play music on Wednesdays and sell balloons on Friday's after school. He took note of these on a sticky note and placed it on the whiteboard hanging on the wall.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4pwQqRiquQ

"All right, Ms. Stevenson. You may start next week. Your daily salary will be given every month. Just give me a call on this number for emergencies or if you are not available. Have fun!", he said.
"Thank you, sir! See you next week.", I beamed.
I leave the office and checked the time on my phone. It was almost lunch time but I was not hungry yet. I decided to go to the bookstore to look for some new books to read.259Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibplS5ZVnC
