"𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐄'𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐊??" Harry shouted from the kitchen of Grimmauld place. After the war, Harry, Ron, and Hermione moved into the home. It was only temporary, however, as Ron and Hermione had plans to find a new home to settle in. Harry, on the other hand, had no future plans.

A few days after the war ended, he ended things with Ginny. He felt that things weren't going well with each other due to the war. Thankfully, the feeling was mutual and the breakup wasn't too difficult. Aside from Ron, who blew up at Harry over it before knowing the couple decided to break up.

"I thought we were out of milk?" Hermione questioned as she walked into the kitchen, mug in hand.

"Oh yeah, that's right," Harry replied as he remembered where the milk had gone to. The night before, the trio tried to make cookies. Emphasis on tried. Ron ended up putting way too much flour in and they didn't turn out. "Let me add milk to the grocery list."

"Are you going to the store soon?" Hermione asked as she cleaned her mug in the sink.

"Yeah, I was thinking about going today actually," Harry replied.

There was a city near the home with many shops and restaurants that Harry visited frequently. Mostly for groceries and take-out. Maybe to find some friends, too.

"Alright, thanks. Ron and I were heading out soon anyway." Hermione stated as she put her mug back in the cupboard. The pair were going home shopping again. They've been looking for a flat for a few weeks now.

Harry walked up the stairs and into the bathroom to get ready to go. He currently looked like a hot mess, considering it was 12 in the afternoon on a Sunday.  After brushing his teeth and fixing his appearance, he got dressed and headed downstairs.

"Bye Hermione, Ron. I'll be back," stated Harry as he opened the door to leave.

Upon arriving at the store, Harry examined his list of groceries.

-milk

-eggs

-ice cream

-toaster strudels

How did toaster strudels get here??  he wondered to himself.

He endlessly wandered down each aisle, picking up whatever he felt like, instead of what was on the list. Just as he reached for the packaged doughnuts, his stomach started to grumble.

No wonder I'm buying so much random shit, Harry thought.

He walked to the checkout and greeted the lady working. After scanning all the food, she said, "Your total will be $35.26."

Harry pulled out his muggle currency from his pocket and handed her a $50 dollar bill. He had previously done a currency exchange at Gringots for muggle money.

"Alright, your change will be $14.74. Have a nice day," The cashier told Harry.

"You too" Harry replied and began to grab the bags. As he walked through the muggle town, he decided he wanted to get something to eat. Harry looked up from the ground and saw a bright sign that directed people to the diner below.

I think I'll go here, He decided, and walked towards the bright sign.
