CYRUS ABEL HAYWARD is the SECOND OLDEST Hayward at 26 years old, born on Feb. 9th 1994. He is a SCHOOL LIBRARIAN. He identifies as MALE, and BISEXUAL. His hometown is CHICAGO, ILLINOIS.
Once he graduated from grad school, he hit the pavement running when it came to sending in applications. After endless amount of failed interviews, he scored the librarian job at elementary school and he looked at it he got his foot in the door. After a while, he decided it was time for a change of scenery, so he applied to be the librarian’s assistant at the middle school. Where he helps the main librarian with all of the different topics that the classes are studying. He also helps the students with book recommendations.
On top of being a librarian’s assistant, he recently started to tutor kids and help them in a creative way. For an example, he uses DnD to help those who are struggling with math and struggling to create a creative outlet to express themselves. By doing this, he has helped the students get together and work as a team.
Whenever he’s not an assistant or teaching DnD, Cyrus likes to unwind from the day by watching Disney+, Netflix and Crunchyroll. Something about re watching shows from his childhood relives stress. Plus he likes to stay updated with new books, comics and animes for his students too. Making it easier for him to recommend things to the students.
On top of watching old TV shows, Cyrus tends to play video games to relieve the stress of the day. He has set up his spare bedroom as a gaming room, for all of his gaming systems to be in there. From the Switch to PS3.
Cyrus visits his parents, mainly in the summer, to see if there’s anything he could do to help them out. While he’s there, he tends to check out the racing scene and still yearns for the day where he could race for pinks again. He knows what could happen if he does race again, but part of him still finds it exciting.
Cyrus has twins, who are two and the names are Harley and Henry. Henry was born first and six minutes later, Harley was born. He gotten custody right before he got his masters, but would do anything for them. He calls them Rosebug and Toothless.
He has been in Gradain since January, so still learning the ropes of living in a small village in the UK.
Cyrus was born the middle child to Constance & Howard. From a young age he always had an adventurous personality, curious to learn and experience as much of life as he can. When he was younger it started as living through characters in books, mangas and comic books. But as he got older he started to step out of his comfort zone, starting to explore more outside of his books.
When he got into high school he seemed to have the perfect change to try more when he learned about racing. Which lead to fueling his interest in doing more illegal things. Something about car racing for pink slips made him feel alive. He even started to be interested in growing a car collection of his own.
After only two years his parents finally caught on to what their child was doing. Where he could once get away with a lot due to them being distracted with work and his younger siblings, their eyes were on him. They felt as if they had to get him away from Seattle to truly help him. It may have not been the best decision but they felt that if he wasn’t mixed with his friends here it could change him back to the Cyrus they knew before.
At sixteen years old they sent him to live with his grandparents in the opposite coast to New York to finish high school. His grandparents keeping a close eye on him, making sure he came to school and came straight home after. The first thing they let him do was choose a place to volunteer for a few hours after school. That is what lead him back to the library. While being in a small town was driving him crazy, at least he could get lost in books again. Something that he had forgotten about over the years.
When he started college there was a lot he wanted to study. He was considering physical education, social work, or english. But this earned him a strong talking to from his grandmother, insisting that he stayed undeclared and finishing his core classes before declaring a major. Even after he finished them he was still at a loss, decided to look for guidance from someone he looked up to. The librarian that helped him while he was in high school. She talked about how happy books made him and how he enjoyed volunteering for her. So she suggested why that he could try getting a masters in library science. Sending him off with a good book and reminding him to do what made him happy.
Cyrus ended up declaring an education major, thinking that would be the best route since he wanted to work for a school. During his junior year, he sent out applications for grad schools all over the country and hoped for the best. He had a few offers, but part of him wanted to stay so he could be there for his grandparents. When his grandparents learned about this, they tried to get him to change his mind and accept offers from California or even go back to Seattle, but he told him that he didn’t want to leave home. One thing he didn’t plan, was finding someone he could potentially to settle down with.
