I walked down the stairs with my phone and my wallet in my pocket.

Yes a wallet carrying a purse around is a pain.

Josh and Jadon were downstairs.

Josh had his phone in his hands and as standing next to Jadon.

It was obvious that he asked him for a picture.

"Are we all ready" I asked.

"Yeah" Jadon and Josh said.

We got outside and I locked the door.

We went into Jadon's car. I was in the passenger seat and Josh was in the back.

"Thanks again for agreeing to be the driver" 

"Not a problem" Jadon said.

"Where are we going first sis" Josh asked.

"Oh yeah. We're going to the African store near here. I'll give directions" I said.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

We arrived at the store.

Me and Josh got out of the car leaving Jadon.

"What are you sitting there for? C'mon" I said to Jadon.

"Okay then" He removed his seatbelt and came out and locked his car.

There was not many people here. 

We all entered. The cashier greeted us.

"Hey Jordyn can I look around" Josh asked.

I nodded. He went around to the snacks section.

Jadon was looking at the things on display. I was looking around and I saw what I was looking for.

I grabbed his hand "Jadon c'mon"

I held his hand until we got to the hair extensions area.

The two extensions that caught my eye I held them out to him.

One was a brown twist and the other a black braid.

"It's time for a new hairstyle so which one do you like" I said jangling the extensions.

I'm pretty sure my smile looked goofy.

"I'm no expert at this" he replied.

My smile gradually faded.

"Fine, fine, fine I'll pick one" He said laughing.

My smile reappeared. 

He took the black one from my hand "This one"

"Why this one exactly" I asked.

"It's the same colour as my hair" He said.

I guess that was a valid enough reason.

I put back the brown twists and grabbed another black braid.

"Thanks for the advice" I said smiling at him.

We walked around just looking at the options.

"This place smells a lot like fish innit" He said.

"Yeah there's loads of fish. Titus, Salmon and Mackerel to name a few" I answered while looking at the cooking oil.

"It's mixed with a bit of spice as well" 

"Mhm I bet those spices would be good on fried--"

"I'm done" Josh said coming out of nowhere.
