It was the next day and I was now at work. I told my boss that Devi got the flu and couldn't come to work but I would be glad to work double for her. He eventually agreed so now I had to check if all the books were on the right shelf.
I walked away from the counter as one of my coworkers took over.
I walked over to the cookbook section, running my fingers along the spines of the books.
I pulled one out and stared at the cover. The book was nothing special, just a children's book about animals.
"People find enjoyment in the weirdest ways."
I perked my head up at the unfamiliar voice and I smiled at the remark. I turned towards the voice and it was a slender man. A bit tall and dressed in all black. Seeming remarkably familiar for some reason
"Funny."
I smiled at him, putting the book back,
"Are you new here?"
I asked him and he shrugged,
"I wouldn't say that."
I furrowed a brow slightly before I returned back to my happy expression,
"What may I help you with?"
I asked him as I saw him hold his hands behind his back,
"I was wondering where you keep the horror novels. I went to the usual spot but I believe you guys moved it."
I nodded, remembering which sections were moved.
"Right."
I walked in front of him and he began to follow me.
"You have any horror novels in mind?"
He nodded his head at the ground.
"I found a really interesting one once. Didn't want to buy it at the time."
I nodded my head and I found the section.
"Which author are you looking for?"
I asked him as I began to scan the shelves,
"Stephen King."
I smiled, finding which section he was looking for,
"Great choice."
He bent down to reach one of the books and I gently nudged his ribcage with my elbow,
"Not planning on killing someone, are you?"
He tensed up and I found that odd.
"No, I just enjoy reading horror novels."
I shrugged and smiled,
"It is going to be Halloween soon."
He smiled and we both walked to the counter. I walked up behind it and I smiled at him once more,
"This is it, right."
He chuckled lightly as I rang it up,
"11.42."
He handed me the cash and was about to walk away,
"What's your name?"
He stopped and turned around,
"It's Johnny."
I smiled at him one last time before I waved slightly,
"Hi Johnny, my name is Y/N."
He smiled before shrugging,
"I'll see you around, Y/N."
I waved goodbye to him as he walked out of the store. I smiled slightly as I began to tap my fingers on the counter. He honestly seemed pretty cool, not to mention he had a pretty awesome style of clothing. It kind of reminded me of Devi's choice of clothing.
