We just stood there looking or should I say staring at each other, until the cashier says " something went wrong ringing up a few of your items".
So my mom says " Paris can you go get another jug of milk, some oreos, some nite quill."
I snap out of my daydreaming with the boy and go get the things. I didn't understand why an employee couldn't get the stuff like any other time. As I'm walking I get a feeling someone was watching or following me. I never turn to see I just turn a corner onto a aisle where the school supplies are kept. After walking for like three minutes I finally reach the milk. Before opening the freezer door I look into the glass making sure my hair doesn't need any fixing. While in the process of making sure my bun is okay I see someone peeking around the corner looking at me. I get the milk and walk towards the anonymous person that was caught looking at me. To my surprise it was the boy with the pretty hazel eyes from the line.
I say "Hi
He replies with a "Hey" then there was a moment of silence.
I say "I have to go now".
He say, "umm yea i do to but before i leave can i have your number."
"Sure". I say and write the number down on a sheet of paper I got from my purse, and walk away.
Heading for the nite quill the store gets very quiet. The next thing i know someone has grabbed me and has a hand tightly gripped over my mouth. I'm trying to scream and shout but, no one seems to hear me.
"HELP!!!" I scream and kick repeatedly still no one hears me and the man seems not to back down!!
He goes into the garden center.This part of the store is closed this time of night so no one is here.he finally takes his hand from over my mouth but does not let me go.
"How old are you." He asks impatiently I look at him with a confused look on my face but he shouts " TELL ME NOW!!'
i start to cry and say "15" under my breath.
The middle aged man starts to walk in circles waiting for someone to answer the phone. I'm starring at the bruises on my arm. (from his tight grip. )I think to myself about running away but I'm also asking myself questions like: "What if he catches me.?!", "What is my mom thinking.?!", and/or "Did anyone see what had just happened?"
My kidnapper still isn't paying any attention to me. I quickly made up my mind and decided to make a run for it. I looked around and i quickly and quietly rise from the nasty and dirty floor. Constantly glaring at the man.I took a deep breath and ran through the sliding doors.I don't think man saw that i ran off i walk towards register four where i last saw my mom. I put my hand in pockets and found a piece of paper which was the sheet of paper id ripped to write down my number for the boy. Then i remembered i was getting groceries. turn and speed walk to get the items. MILK CHECK!! i looked at the signs hanging from the ceiling and look for the snack alise. Finally i find the oreos on alise 16. OREOS CHECK!! I stopped to think what the last item was, remembering it was nite quill and i decided not to go back on that side of the store not today anyways.I return to my mother and she asks questions.
"did you get lost".?! she asked
"I don't want to talk about it." i said quickly looking down at my arm taking my jacket from around my waist and put it on,due to the bruises and the weather.
I'm sitting in the car bitting my nails and minding my own business while my mom puts the groceries in the trunk.When she gets in the car shes still asking questions.
"what happened in there?."she asked even though this is like her second time but it feels like her millionth time.
I tell her to "Mind her own business."
"You are my business.!!"she states while pressing on the break because of a red light.
I reach for the knob for the radio and turn it up and i tune my mother out.I realize shes been talking for a while because she talks with her hands, like me.
She then turns down the radio and asks 'What do you plan on doing this weekend because I'm going on a business trip out of town?".
I think for a while then say "I'm going to my best friend Shacole's house.
"Okay." she answered and turned the radio back up
i pick my phone up off the seat and text Shacole to see if she had asked her mom already.
while waiting for her to answer i stare at the houses as we enter the subdivision. "finally.!" i whisper to myself.
i jump out the car not realizing i opened the door before the car was parked. i run for the door then i hear my mom say.................." the door is locked and come back and get some bags.!!!"quickly i run back and get 3 bags and the keys.
i unlock the door, put the bags in the kitchen on the counter then run to my room. i find myself turning on Pandora on my laptop as loud as it could go, and started to pack my bag even though it was only Wednesday and i wasn't leaving till Friday or Saturday.its summer now so i could pack for a weeks visit just in case. i also pack a bathing suit and my hair scarf well my bonnet and a couple of bandanas.I'm going to wait to pack my shoes and toothbrush.
BOOM!! BOOM!!!
My mom was knocking on door. i could hear her "TURN DOWN THAT MUSIC!!" I race to my laptop to turn it down but instead i just close the tab, and shut down the whole thang.to cure my boredom i call my bff. we stay on the phone for like 20 minutes, or should i say until the conversation got dead.i hate the part when you just sit there on the phone saying nothin for long periods of time.
but anyways i check my bag again then i hear a loud scream. "PARIS COME EAT."
"OKAAY coming!" i yell back
i run down the stairs. i counted 14 going down.i walk through the living room into the kitchen and sit down.my mom is listening to some old song, slow jams maybe. she slides a plate in front of me. for dinner were eating fried chicken, cheesy rice, loaded baked potatoes, and corn bread. many people would say this is a ghetto black folks meals although I'm Italian. we dont just eat pasta "ya know"actually we moved because we was tired of pasta and the same old thang every year.
"Paris stop playing with your food" my ma said
"I'M NOT!!" I said
after dinner i put the dishes in the dish washer turned it on and went to sleep
