Karmen and I decided to go grocery shopping (mainly for candy) today.
I pushed the cart as Karmen sat inside pulling things off the shelf as we went by.
"Why do I have to be the pusher?" I asked Karmen for the millionth (is that a word?) time.
"Because I said so Dimple!" Karmen said with a smirk as I rolled my eyes. Thanks alot Nick.
We basically started roaming the store after awhile, picking up stuff we clearly didn't need. Which would explain how we ended up with at least 8 different Nerf guns in our cart.
My mind wandered as I continued to push Karmen down each aisle. Somehow, cookies popped into my head.
"We should make cookies." I said aloud. Karmen looked up at me, eyes wide.
"You're so right! Off to the cookie aisle my majestic horse!" she said as I continued to push her.
We soon got to the cookie aisle thanks to my ability to steer a shopping cart.
"Okay, you look for toppings while I look for the type of cookies." I said to Karmen as she got out the cart.
There were many different varieties to pick and choose from, but obviously I went with chocolate chip. And sugar cookie, just cuz.
I turned to Karmen to see what she had.
Almost every type of sprinkles lay in the cart along with multiple different kinds of chocolate chips.
I looked to Karmen who had a big grin on her face. I laughed as she hopped back into the cart.
"Is that everything?" I asked as we were about to reach the check-out line.
Karmen shook her head. "Didn't Carmime ask us to get milk?"
My mouth formed an o. "Yeah, he did. Come on, let's go get it." I soon began to push the cart again down each aisle.
Finally, the refrigerator section came into view. Karmen grabbed the milk.
As we began to go back to check-out, I saw someone out the corner of my eye. I slighty turned to them, wondering if I knew the person, their posture familiar.
Realization hit me when I realized who it was.
I turned to Karmen quickly. "We need to leave, QUICKLY." I whispered to her.
She looked at me confused, then to where I was discreetly pointing to. Her eyes went wide when she realized, then nodded.
We speed walked down the aisle trying quickly to get out as fast as possible. But, somehow the milk slipped out of Karmen's hand, causing it to spill everywhere.
The noise caused a nearby worker to stop what they were doing and come clean the mess.
As Karmen began to apologize and help, I noticed the commotion had caused someone to look over in our direction.
I quickly turned my head, hoping they wouldn't recognize us.
Soon, the mess was cleaned and the worker was gone. Karmem quickly went and grabbed another milk, handing it to me.
"I think you should carry this." she said.
I nodded and started walking. I could see the check-out counter when suddenly a voice stopped us.
"I haven't seen you two in quite sometime." The voice was silky and smooth naturally, and all too familiar.
Both Karmen and I turned simultaneously, a forced smile on my face and a scowl on Karmen's.
"Oh Jordan! How are you?" I said with fake enthusiasm. She smiled cooly.
"Same as I've ever been." she replied back. I nodded. I still remembered what she said and did at the masquerade party, even though it seemed like forever ago. Did she really think I forgot?
I saw Jordan look down at my hand. I knew what she was looking at.
"You're married?" she asked, a fake smile on her face.
"Engaged." I said back.
"To Nick." Karmen suddenly added with a smirk.
I saw Jordan's eyes widen for a split second, her demeanor suddenly changing.
"How.......interesting." she said, her face unreadable.
"Well, I should really get going." Jordan suddenly said. She quickly walked away without another word.
I turned to Karmen. A grin made its way on her face.
I looked at her for a second, not sure what to do. After thinking, I suddenly began to laugh, fo no reason at all really.
Karmen soon joined in, our laughter mixing together.
And there we stood, two laughing girls in a grocery store.
