004 Sniffles

[A: EVERYWHERE IN MAYFIELD (Action; open)]

[Cain had risen early and left a note for his for his family on the side: GOING OUT. BACK LATER. CAIN. So now there was a small ten-year-old boy, muffled up in a scarf and coat, knocking on every door. He sounds bunged up with a cold, but he's smiling enthusiastically at whoever answers. Could it be you?!]

Good morning! Do you need any odd-jobs doing? Or any chores? I'm trying to raise some money for a present for my family.

[B: Phone and Home]

[After a long day, Cain is sat at home with a blanket around himself and several packages by his side (presents for the family) on the couch. He's shivering and sniffing, he's never been ill before so this is a new experience on him and he's not sure what to do with it. While he's waiting for his family to come back home, he picks up the phone to ask for advice.]

What are you supposed to feel like when you have a cold? What do you do to make it better?

They're just small, simple tasks really!

Okay! Let's start! [goes off to a closet and exits]

First task! Help me decide where I should put my flagpole.

Well, yeah, but where!

I've been trying to find the perfect spot that's not too out in the road, but not too much on the edge of the lawn and whatnot.

This would be easier if I could lift the pole, too, but as is it'll take a bit more work... [small sigh]

[carries the pole up with a grunt then walks over and sticks it in, wincing as he tried to do it by tossing it over his shoulder like he normally would've]

Ow...

[slightly tense smile...he ain't fooling anyone with the strained look]

Just peachy..!

[sets it down, exhaling a big sigh]

Well, what can we use?

[identity profile] undying-heroism.livejournal.com 2011-11-20 12:35 am (UTC)(link)
. . . that could work!

Except I don't think I have any rope.

[sigh]

Guess I'll have to make a stop at the hardware store again!

don't worry about it! <3

Are you sure about that? It's not too far for you?

[identity profile] undying-heroism.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright. I leave it up to you, Cain!

[identity profile] undying-heroism.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[lays back on the grass to enjoy the sunshine and to realign his back while he waits]

[identity profile] undying-heroism.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
[by then he's napping oh-so-peacefully]

Zzzzzzz . . .

1/2

[identity profile] undying-heroism.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 11:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[He wakes up later when the sprinkler system goes off. What a wake up call, but he felt refreshed!

Yawning, he stretches then looks around then notices the rope and note.

Oh. .

Oh.

Right, he had sent Cain out to get some rope!

Feeling a bit bad he fell asleep and missed thanking him, he took the things inside and decided to call him on the phone.

2/2 [Phone]

[identity profile] undying-heroism.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 11:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Hello! Cain, are you there?

[Phone] no no I just didn't fully finish it before I posted |D it was my derpup

[identity profile] undying-heroism.livejournal.com 2011-11-26 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah! Real well.

Hey, thanks for getting the rope for me! How much did it cost? I'm going to compensate you for all the help you've been, okay?
