John Murphy Is doomed.
yep at the ripe old age of 19 and a half, John is doomed. The thought of how screwed he is was the only thing going through John's mind on a saturday night at exactly 9:32 am. Why is this young man currently sitting in the only chair in his tiny apartmant, head in hands thinking about how there life is over well it probably has something to do with the medical bill on the counter, the one with 7 digets, and the rent, oh the various other fees and debts also can't help. Things are looking down for John beacuse where he lives is or was a factory town the kind of town that springs up arounf a factory and every residence either works there or works somewhere catering for the workers.The plastic plant that was the life blood of the town is now closed which is bad for John because he has a total budget of 2 two bucks so he quite literaly can't afford to leave. which is about to change soon.
The old flip phone which is made more of scuff marks then phone dings. John is rocketed out
of his depression spiral and hops to read the messeage that hopefully arrived.

Paul
Hey John iam in town on buisness and want to catch up want to catch up. lets meet at pizza steves.
This is not the message from someone who can employe John, Its a message from his friend Paul Smithers the closest thing John he had to an older brother, they grew up together and got along amazingly despite the 3 year age gap. and now Paul was back after being gone for seven months after being recruited by some corprate big wig. Paul was "taken under his wing" and aparantly was on his way to being part of somthing Paul called a asset acquisition team, and that apparently involved going all over the world to hire "specialist" in there field. Paul used a ton of buisness jargon and claims of a NDA to say nothing important about his job when they last talked. But John loved the guy so he wasnt going to turn down the possiblilty of free pizza.
ya lets hang out like before you sold out to the man, now good You
Paul yes dude, and I heard about the job problems and may have a fix
Whelp maybe John's luck is getting better.
