Marcus started to cry in the living room. ''ok ok ok ill just walk to the store and see what i can get for yall to eat'' I said .
I Put on my shoes and grabbed the keys to the house. ''Yall Better Not Open The Door For Nobody,I'll Be Back In 30 mins." I said Before I walked out the door.While Walking To The Store I Seen My Friend Paula She Asked If She Can Tag Along I Said Alright .

"Paula How Much Money You Got ?"
" What You Mean I Aint Got No Money"
"So how you getting all that ?" I stared at her like WTF

I walked to the cash register and checked out my stuff.
The cashier lady looked over at Paula and said''You came in with an empty bag so tell me why yo bag is full.''
''BITCH!!! What does the shit in my bag have to do with you?'' She said giving alot of attitude
The Lady shouted "SECURITY!!SECURITY!!''
