"What's your job?" the cop said, pointing his gun at me. "If you don't have one, your life ends here!". I was screwed. This was the new law and I couldn't do a thing about it. When it was all about to end, a girl's voice from somewhere said "He's my butler!"
She saved my life. Since then I have been her butler for real. I spent most of the time housekeeping her student apartment but she often took me to classes to carry books, highlight words and fetch snacks. I also had cuddle duties at night.
One evening while she was asleep under my arm, I looked out her student apartment window. It was very high up and there were lots of other student apartments around the block. Down on the ground, there were cops roaming around the place. I was lucky, but too many others were not.
