"Hm. I think they mostly love my body and what I do to theirs." At least that was what he thought based on observation. He hadn't actually asked any of those boys their opinion on it. Doing a poll after hooking up seemed as if it would really conflict with his general vibe. "There are always odd jobs to do around the office. I could get you a job as an assistant, if you ever wanted. 200 an hour, that's not bad."
Stopping the car at a red light, he looked at Xinjia. "I'd always find a place for you."
"200 an hour?" Woah. That was a lot of money. He could maybe afford to save up and move somewhere nicer. Though he was sure it was office work and he didn't want to admit he couldn't do that sort of thing so he just shrugged his shoulders, trying to seem chill about it all. "Nah, I like my job. Being a gangster is cool and besides, we're like a family. You don't turn your back on family."
And yet, he was starting to wonder. Between the shitty living situation, the lack of jobs and constant fights, maybe it was time to find a new family.
"Bullshit. Family turns its back all the time." As it clearly had in the case of this boy, because he doubted he came from a gangster family. Otherwise he wouldn't be skulking around on the bottom, nowhere near doing any actual gang work. Which might be for the best, since he was not cut out for it. "We can talk more about it. It's not a hard job. Anyone like you can do it."
Otherwise he'd just make up some busy work to keep him occupied.
"Not real family. Not the family you find. Then you're in with them and ... then you're part of something." He hadn't had that since his parents had died. His aunt and uncle only had him for a year while they got rights to everything and then he was in foster care from then onward. He had no inheritance, no home, no nothing. Family could hurt, sure, but it was different when it was like this. He had more choices.
"I'll think about it, okay? But it's my shit and I'll deal with it how I wanna."
"Just buy yourself shoes today." That was his best advice to give, since everything else would take more time. It would also need a bit of introspection on his part, because it wasn't as if he'd been looking for this kind of emotional investment. He supposed sometimes things just happened.
"If you are at the club early enough, I will take you out for dinner. Good dinner." Whatever a kid like that would consider good. "Lots of beef." Probably that.
"beef? Huh. Well. Maybe I'll be early, if I come." He was going to eat beef tonight in his new shoes. What a weird day. He hadn't expected to do all of this with Jonathan. Was he -- no, he wasn't dating him. This was totally different. "Ah, gege, you can drop me off here. I can walk from here, it's just back there."
He gestured vaguely to some back alley and turned to Jonathan, smirking a little. "Don't get too excited wait for me, yeah?" Haha, Jonathan had a crush. So embarrassing.
