A/N-
First off I would like to say, happy new year to you all and thank you for supporting my series. I promise I will be uploading more frequently because I am also enjoying writing this series as well. The reason for my 4 month break was because I felt very unmotivated and gradually fell into a depressive episode with the current situation that's going on in my life. I've learned to be the bigger and better person and so, I hope I can continue to make you guys happy. Thank you all for your support, enjoy~

”‘What a day.” Louis thought. He stood outside, dumbfounded, standing blankly with his phone in his hand.
“is it really disconnected?” he questioned in wonder. He turned on his phone, looking at the upper left hand corner of the screen, which read ‘ no service.’ in capital letters.
“Damn, she's quick.” Louis chuckled softly.
“Now what to do ....After a minute or two of pacing back and forth, he'd figured that he might as well go home, and pick up his things, or at least something. “Actually, fuck that.” he mentioned, thinking that his mother probably changed the passcode to his house. Well, it is under her name anyways, so he wouldn't be surprised if she did pull a stunt like that. So he didn't even want to bother with that sort of issue. But in all honesty, Louis had no idea what to do, for that matter, where to even start. He's a virgin to these types of situations, being exposed so rapidly caused an awful reaction on Louis’ part. But somehow, even through this shit show, deep down inside he felt as if he was just getting started.
It was barely half past twelve, and louis has yet to accomplish anything, but instead, just sat there with his knees buried into his chest and his arms hugging his legs close. His mind practically continued to stay entirely blank for the duration of the time he's been sitting on his ass doing nothing. Feeling and looking pitiful, as he observed everyone who passed by in front of him. He’s pretty sure everyone was somewhat weirded out by him.
Louis began to mumble to himself.
“Okay…. So instead of focusing on what I lost…. Let's start focusing on what I do have…” he sighed, starting to mentally prepare a list. “Okay...okay….I would have to start looking for a job soon...that's first. Wait no, wait. Finding somewhere to sleep is more of a priority.” he sighed deeply once more. “ I mean, I still have my car… but there's honestly no use in driving something so luxurious, when I don't even have a home.” he scratched the back of his head and thought for a moment longer, reaching for his wallet that lay in his back pocket. It was a small leather brown wallet that consisted of many cards, business cards, spare change, and a specific amount of dollar bills. He pulled out the spare change, counting 39 cents, and also counted the remaining bills he had on him. $1239.39 is all he has left, and he has to make it count. It is enough to feed him until he has found a job, at least. But there's no way he could spend this money at a hotel or motel, his money would fly by too quickly, so he had to think of another alternative.
He really regrets wasting all that money that he spent this morning. If only he could go back and take it.
But maybe he could sell his car? He continued to sit in front of his used-to-be office building, unmotivated to do anything. This was honestly the last thing he ever expected from his bitch of a mother. What made her suddenly have a change of heart? Louis wondered. Louis understood that he's probably better off in this type of situation then pathetically begging his mother for his life back. To be honest, he rarely felt happy having that type of lifestyle, so maybe he'd be able to find happiness elsewhere.
Whatever.
There's no time for Louis to sit and mope all day long. He had to get to it, especially since it's bound to get dark soon.
He made up his mind and decided it was best to go to the nearest dealership, seeing if he could, in anyway, make some money.
------------
After two hours or so of driving, he finally left the downtown area, leading into a more rural, and peaceful area. It seemed more like a small town than a community of houses. In fact, there weren’t many houses to begin with, as if he aimlessly drove himself to the countryside.
His car was running low on gas, and Louis began to feel like his time has become much more constricted.
Finally, he came across a dealership that seemed to be crappy and run down. It seemed to be more in a lower-middle-class area of the town, so it wasn’t too shabby. There stood a neighboring cuban coffee cafe, along with a homeless shelter of some sort. Louis scoffed at the thought of possibly being in that situation, as if that could never happen, but deep down, he dreaded that thought, simply because the possibility of it ACTUALLy happening, seemed to be true more than anything else at the moment.
It is slowly becoming more and more difficult for Louis to process what has been going on. His emotions and thoughts were in complete shambles. He could barely think straight and he felt like he could break at any moment. He felt a deep pain in his heart, slowly devouring it as every second, every minute, and every hour went by.
He sighed, pulling into the degenerate dealership.
