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?

Cain makes it back after about half an hour, a huge length of rope wound around his tiny shoulders.]

Zzzzzzz . . .

Cain just carefully leaves the rope next to him, along with a little note:
Didn't want to wake you.
Hope this helps!
Cain.
And then he heads on home.]

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.]

[Phone] -- I think LJ ate your tag in the other thread ):
[Phone] no no I just didn't fully finish it before I posted |D it was my derpup
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?
[Phone] <333
[He would normally protest, but the whole point of doing these chores was to EARN money for presents... not spend it.]

But Alfred was aware of his initial goal and really he wasn't the type to take advantage of a kind gesture. Especially when it was tied to another kind gesture that started everything in the first place!]
Ten, got it!
Hey, if you're free tomorrow, do you want to help me put up the flag? It seems to be a two-person job. And I could use your help! [Plus this means he can give him a little more, too! Cause it's a two-day job rather than just one!]
[Phone]
[He sounds... almost excited. He was invited back to somewhere, he was making friends!]

[And he hangs up!]
