Gothic Hero Of Singapore(East-side)

My story will involve two really opposite characters (from my people watch) coming together. How will I start? How will it end? I’ve no idea but im just going to let the words flow and hope that it will end up making some sense.

Alexandre Randell Deveraux feels bored and as there is another five hours to go before the sun will set. He is a night person. His mother always told him that he is different as when people go to sleep he is wide awake and roaming the streets.

Night is his favourite time of the day as it is the only time where he can get away with his fetish of wearing his Goth clothes. Imagine wearing those clothes during the day? You will get enough stares to last you a lifetime.

His streaked eyebrows furrowed as he frowns deep in thought as he thinks of what to do. A string of mischievous ideas circle him, teasing him to go ahead and pick one of them. He shakes his head to clear his mind o such thoughts and decides to make his way to Pasir Ris and grab a quick bite.

Arriving at Pasir Ris, he decides to go to the nearest hawker center as he hears his stomach growl in protest of having to wait any longer.

There for the first time he sees Uncle Johnny Cash Lim who was busy behind the counter making balloon sculptures for the little kids surrounding him.

After looking at the menu he decides to order the store’s recommendation of “Kaya Toast” and waits patiently for his food to arrive.

He smiles to himself as he watches Uncle Johnny make his way about the place and greeting everyone and making them feel at ease.

Just as he was about to turn away he sees the evil shoelaces of uncle Johnny’s shoes loosen and one wrong move uncle Johnny will trip over them and hurt his back badly.

Smooth as a bird and swift as Superman, Alexandre swoops down and ties the shoelaces for the very surprised Uncle Johnny. Once he had done that, he explains himself to the Uncle Johnny whose stunned face expression turns into one of gratefulness. He was so thankful as that fall might have slipped his disc that he turns around and hugs him. Alexandre turns a shade of red and shrugs it away as nothing as he walks back with his “Kaya Toast”.

Who knew that his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder of having to tie shoelaces would come in handy and save the day?
