"I really hope Susanna is going to be okay, I mean this is her first time home alone and all." said Mrs. Hardin, "we should have just brought her with us."
"She will be fine, and plus, the walk would be far too long for her, we are just going shopping and stopping for lunch." replied Mr. Hardin
"I read earlier in the news that crimes are higher than they've ever been in this area, kidnapping has been one of the most frequent crimes lately." Mrs. Hardin explained.
"Alright let's just hurry up and get our shopping done." replied Mr. Hardin as he walked up to the entrance to the market.
"Hello! shouted the market worker from across the store.
Mrs. Hardin smiled and gave a little wave.
"I'll get the bread and milk, can you go get some flour and sugar, we are low on them, Susanna keeps baking with them." continued Mr. Hardin
As Mrs. Hardin was walking through the store, she spotted a Wanted sign, a man named, Cooper Dallas, he was wanted for the kidnapping of a young child, they had almost caught him but he and his horse had fled before the Sheriff could reach them. Mrs. Hardin grabbed the items and returned to her husband.
"Do we need anything else?" she asked.
"I don't think so, let's grab some lunch and we'll head back to the house." replied Mr. Hardin.
