Sunny day
Corner of S Main Street and E Jefferson Blvd.
The mid after noon sun waxy slowly begging to wane into the evening, and Scott was feeling the strain of a long day spent working. He chuckled as he tosses his hard hat into his locker. The boys were talking about the new foreman scheduled to arrive tomorrow. They were all excited and hoping it was going to be a girl. Bentley was a nice man, and he definitely earned his retirement. Scott had only worked with the man for a few days since he arrived.
They were on the corner of 54th street, constructing why was going to me a new apartment building. Scott didn't care what it was, he just wanted the work and the pay. It was quite the shift from working on a road to building in the sky, but he'd get used to it. The danger pay was nice too.
He walked out of the portable office that had been set up for the workers, waving at the other guys. They were off for a night of pool and booze, but Scott wanted something different tonight. Back home he had quite the little black book to call upon when he needed companionship, but here in America he'd have to start all over. As he approached the bus stop, he couldn't help but notice a cute girl, maybe her early twenties, walking down the side walk. He wasn't big on the purple hair, but.... It was a start.
He whistled loudly at the girl and winked. "Riht there lass, and where might a prehtteh little ladeh be off teh?" He said, allowing his heritage to shine like the sun.
