After about an hour kup and I finally hit the outskirts of grand-junction. We must have been up early because it's only 9:30 and we find a small restaurant named RANDYS DINNER. In bolded letters. I open the door to let kup inside and let my black back pack slide of my shoulders. I look at the cashier and ask
"Is my dog slowed in here?"
She replies "yea.. Long as he doesn't cause no harm to any customers".
"He won't do anything but sniff them to death"
"Then he's welcome. Pick a both and I'll take your order when your ready."
I choose the booth one away from the door and kup crawls in and sits down on the opposite side of the booth.
The lady walks up with a pad
"Can I take your orders?" She says looking at kup as he looks at her tilting his head.
"He will have a plate of link sausages and some water. I'll have your Randy's omelet."
"Anything to drink for ya?"
"Orange juice please"
She turns and walks always and later arrives with a glass of juice and a metal dog bowl filled with water. The lady says it's ours to keep so after kup finishes his drink I etch KUP fancily into the side of his bowl and give it back so the lady can give us our food and refill our drinks. The two of us devour our food like rapid starving beasts. And the funny thing is once I finished mine and look at kup. He is still eating! Guess he wasn't as hungry as I was!
We pay 30$ in expenses for our food and head down the road a couple miles to a mall. We enter and realize compared to everyone how dirty we were. Like I'm pretty sure we were 110% mud and 2% living things. I head to the family bathrooms in the cafeteria. I rinse off lips head an feet in the tiny sink and wash my face, hair and arms in the taller one and try to wash away the mud left caking the sinks. We leave and was towards a Hot topic were I browse the hurts and come upon a Möntly Crüe t shirt that I quickly snag as well as a pair of good fitting jeans and some combat boots they had a sale on. I back up from the towering t-shirt wall and trip over kup backwards as he moves at the way I bump into somebody. I quickly get up with all my stuff in hand to say sorry but all I get is shoved back almost falling again. I couldn't believe my eyes. She was the prettiest thing Iv ever seen. She was wearing a mcr T-shirt and torn jeans. Her black poofy hair whipped back it was almost impossible to believe that I could've found somebody like this.
" watch were your going twat waffle! And make sure your smelly mut doesn't get in my way"
Truly beautiful....
I shake everything off and get up to pay for everything. Kup and I walk out with 170$ left. We turn towards a target and fill our bags with food and water and walk out of the mall un noticed. I change into my new clothes behind a dumpster. I take my old Metallica shirt and rip the sleeves off. Kup watches me with his head tilted.
"Come here boy"
I tell kup as he gets up and comes closer. "Sit down kup" he sits and I put each paw through the sleeve holes and slip the shirt over his head. It's just about a perfect fit and kup seems happy about it. He itches the shirt and sits down again letting the shirt fall Over his fur. We walk out. On our journey to no where. We walk east across a highway an by an old park and fallow a road that goes over a bridge. We keep going until we find our selves at an abandoned carwash. We see an old area in the corner where they dumpsters would have been stored but is now just an empty section of walls with a metal door. Kup and I swing open the door look inside and quickly get to work making a make shift home for us out of old pallets left there. Kup tried to help as much a he could helping me drag the pallets with his teeth. Once we were satisfied it was approaching night time so I rolled out my sleeping bag and we both slipped inside and fell right to sleep. We were both used to the hard ground so it was no problem for us to sleep especially together like usual. I hope we're not found.
