Buddy Smooth was a invariable man, who may
listen but rarely learn. Learning perhaps a little, but experiencing never, he
was too rigid to try a something different rather than the things he did from
the day he was born. He was persistent to, never to try anything else, as he
believed he could not adapt in new environments.
Buddy was now
24, and for his whole life he had walked his dog Faisel to
the park and back. That was until tragedy
struck and Faisel eventually died of old age.
Things were now
very different for Buddy, despite how stubborn he
was about change. Getting a new dog would
be foolish, as no new dog was like Faisel. Going to the park by himself was
ridiculous because what reason would he have to be there. Now that Faisel had
gone there was so much time left to do anything. To bad Buddy wasn’t keen on
doing anything. Buddy wondered if what he did at home after Faisel’s walk, was
something he could do more of. The things that he mostly did were basic
housework and watch films. Basic housework wasn’t always necessary for his mum,
and watching movies would waste time and hurt his eyes. Buddy ran out of
activities to do at home and decided to ask his mother who strictly spoke, “Get
a job.”
Buddy had mix
feelings about this, less so than he would have if Faisel
was still alive. What kind of job would
Buddy be good at? Asking his Mum again, she replied with, “Something stringent,
your good with being precise and getting the details.”
So Buddy went
looking for a job forcing him to be very different and
versatile. Despite his issues with adapting
to new things, getting a job would benefit him very well, his mother believed.
Every job that Buddy went to made him different and possibly bring him to a
great career that he was able to discover for himself. It would take a long
time though.
