200 Reasons To Live

#24 Helping the helpless

"Today's reason is weird Skylar, and you might feel like taking a shower afterwards, but you will feel great." He said in the car, I wondered how he got all of Warped Tour to go. This man has some special talents or something.


"Vic are we pretending to be homeless and go eat for free in a soup kitchen? At least one person volunteering in there will recognize one of you guys." I asked. Vic started laughing, actually everyone around me did. "What?" I asked, confused.

"We are here to serve them, not pretend to be them." I looked up at the sign on the building. Helping the Helpless. I think I've been here before.

~Flashback~

"Can I help you miss?" A lady who looked about my age asked.

"Yeah I just need some foo-oo-od." I shivered from my lack of clothing.

"Miss I don't mean to offend you or anything but you look like a hooker, and don't hookers have money?" She asked. I sighed.

"I'm not a hooker, well kinda I am forced to be one by my drunk father and evil stepmom." I sighed.

"Oh poor soul." She smiled sadly at me.

"I snuck out, but they will hunt me down if they notice I'm gone for too long." I shrugged. "It's happened before. They don't feed me hardly anything, or let me get any food, and I don't have money, I'm saving little bits to run away. So my only option is places like these." I felt tears stinging my eyes.

"Here you go." She handed me a bowl of soup.

"Thank you." I whispered.

I sat down at a table alone, when somebody sat down next to me. "I'm Rose. I think you could use this." She handed me a hundred dollar bill.

"Rose I can't. You probably need this too, and it's yours." I tried handing her the money back, but she held her hands up.

"I am not a sex slave. You need it way more. Besides, I would hope that someone would do the same for me if I was in your shoes." She got up and walked back behind the counter. I quickly ate my soup, and wrote a note on a napkin.

Rose,
Thanks for the money. I'll come back and visit one day if I ever escape.
-Skylar

~End Flashback~

I ran inside. Sure enough there was Rose. I would recognize her anywhere. I ran behind the counter and gave her a huge hug, tears streaming down my face.

"Who is this?" I let go of her and stepped back. "Oh my god Skylar! You did it!" She hugged me tightly. I heard someone clear their throat behind me. Rose let go and stood back. "You also got a man." She winked at me. I blushed. This was going to be the best day ever.
"Thanks Vic for taking me back there, I almost forgot about Rose." I smiled at him wearily. He smiled funny like he was hiding something. "What?" I asked.

"I gave her a thousand dollars." He admitted.

"Wow really Vic! She's such a great person, she deserves every penny." I hugged him.

"Yeah turns out she was really bad in debt and I helped her out a lot." I let go of him and punched him in the arm.

"Stop making me fall for you, it's making me want to live." I smiled.

"That's the goal." He pecked my lips.

"Damn it Vic, stop being you." I teased. I kissed him passionately.
