Ray sent Laura to the store to get some milk, bread, cheese, orange juice, fish, and oatmeal. She had sent her off with $100 and a wistle😎. Laura happily accepted the task getting ready.
She used her AmAzInG driving skills to make it all the way to ShopRite. She entered grabbing a cart and began to stroll down the isle's. She spotted the dairy section and ran towards it opening the fridges to grab a galloon of 2% milk. She took it...and dropped it on her foot. The cover flew off and all the milk spilled out all over the isle. She decided to grab another one but her hands were still very sweaty from the driving so she dropped milk after milk.
People were slipping everywhere and she didn't notice until she slipped herself. The cart strayed from her, bumping into a tall ladder that was supporting the employee who was restocking the high shelves. She gasped seeing him fall and crash into the fridge that now fell down, causing the rest to also.
She gaped with her eyes widened. She quickly got up, running away from the scene to get the other items on the list. She saw the oatmeal and tried to take one before a tap was felt on her shoulder. She curiously turned around to see a guy with uniform on and wet with milk. She blinked knowing what would happen next.
"Did you see the incident?"
She gulped. "Wel-no! I don't know what incident you're talking about!" She lied, leaning on the shelf absentmindedly. It broke off and fell onto the floor breaking and Laura dropped all the groceries and ran out the store.
"Yeah! And don't bother coming back! You're not allowed in here anymore, banned!!"Laura ran through the parking lot searching for her car before finally finding it. She unlocked it, attempting to open the door. But it didn't work so she pulled on the door handle and it started beeping. Her eyes widened as people were starting to stare at her and then in the corner of her eye, she saw the cAR tHaT lOoKeD AwFuLLy FaMiLiAr As ThE oNe ShE sToOd aT..
"Stop her! She's trying to break into that person's car!" Laura ran towards her car unlocking it and sitting down immediately driving off without hesitation until she reached Walmart where she would instead buy the groceries.
'Ah a great parking space!' Laura gracefully parked, walking inside of Walmart and grabbing a cart. She once again went on her hunt for the food before running into her 4 friends who were busy shopping together.
3 guys named: "John" "Marcus" and "Trey". There was also the girl, Crystal. They all grinned widely seeing each other and running over. "Hey!" "Hi" "you guys want to shop together!?" "Oh, yea! We should!"
The 5 of them ran through the isle's, purposely knocking things off the shelves and pretending to work there; asking people uncomfortable and inappropriate questions, going behind the freezer and tripping random people.They all laughed opening a party size bag of chips and eating one before pouring the rest out on the floor and calling the staff to clean it. They then decided to actually start shop before each one of them were called out and banned.
Laura awkwardly went home back with the car she didn't even have a license for and made sure to drive slowly not wanting to face her mom's wrath. But the effect of her driving pace caused accidents and people to be late.
She finally reached home pulling into the drive way and walking inside where her mom was getting ready to cook the mashed potatoes. She handed her the money.
"Great! Now where's the milk? I need it to make the potatoes-wait! This is the money I sent you with. Where's the receipt and most importantly...what happened to the groceries??"
