Destiny or Fate?

Chapter 2

"Harper I need you and Violet to go to the store and get some groceries for lunch" My aunt says chopping what seems like... Cabbage?

"Sure thing mom" Harp sarcastically chants.

My aunt hands her the small piece of paper with the list of things we got to buy and we head to Harper's car. Still the st.upid door won't budge. I open the back door and hop in hoping that Harper realizes that one of her passengers door won't open up.

"Oh not again!" She half yells frustratedly. She grabs the handle and kicks the door open. Well damn son! You opened the door.

I gasp at the sudden thump sound and jump on the front seat with her, clapping mentally.

🌸

"So we need carrots, some tomatoes and... onions? What is she trying to do?" Harper's eyes widen in confusion then they stop right on mines.

"I don't know. Don't look at me like im some psychic that can just pop out the recepie your mom is making" I dramatically throw my hands in the air.

"Vi can you get me some orange juice?" Harp says looking for the tomatoes which seem to be nowhere to be seen.

"Sure thing" i look at my feet and put my hands on my pockets. I got earbuds on so im sort of jamming along to the song.

"Just to get up next to you" i hum along looking for the orange juice. Sh.it I don't even know where I'm going!

Okay Violet. It's not hard to find things in Walmart. You can get there without getting lost any further.

"Geez" i groan rubbing my forehead. How did I even end up on the ground?

"Oh god- Are you okay?" A deep voice with an accent asks.

I look up trying to see clearly. My head is spinning a little. I can't quite picture the figure standing in front of me for a second.

"Yeah, i guess" i reply taking the strangers hand for help.

Once I'm on my feet he apologizes. His deep red hair takes me aback for a second. I wonder if it's even his natural hair color. Nah, it looks dyed.

"It's okay. Really" I dismiss him with a short smile and walk to the cold food section. I grab the juice and head back to the vegetables, where Harper is supposed to be.

🌸

"Aunt this is amazing! I didn't know this spaghetti sauce even existed!" I gush taking a mouth full of spaghetti.

I wonder were she found the recepie. This may have some garlic and- hold up. Why am I thinking about the ingredients on the sauce?! Ha this is amazing!

"I'm glad you liked it! It's from some book your mom sent me not long ago" she says smiling to herself.

I walk to the kitchen after dismissing myself to put the plate on the dishwasher. I stare out the window and look at the sea. It looks beautiful and calming.

I remember going to the beach with my dad. He used to take us in a long car trip and we would stay at our grandmas beach house. We used to have bonfires and he would carry me and Mila while running along the shore. I miss him so badly.

"Vi are you okay?" Harp's voice interrupts my small flashback. I notice a single tear falling from my eye.

"Yeah yeah" i say wiping the tear away.

"Wanna go to the mall?" She asks raising an eyebrow at me.

"Sure! Let me grab my phone and stuff" I rush to the room and grab a small bag to put all my stuff in and rush to her car.
