A Day In The Market

In a chilly afternoon, on mid October, autumn leaves started falling off of trees. Children out to play on the leaf covered streets, using the leaves as their play things, adults marching back to work, tired and annoyed by the weather's cold demeanor. It was almost Halloween, a child's holiday, a cosplayer's excuse, and a company's profit. In a large grocery store, three groups tell a tale, they all have different plans for this upcoming festivity. Brooklyn's quest for sleepover movie night snacks, the siblings' hunt of their cafe's sweets and ingredients, and a group of friends satisfying their hunger for sweets while looking for some materials for their costumes aswell. The inside of the store was quite busy but the three groups still manage. People were picking out candy and snacks to give to the children, some were buying Thanksgiving dinner ingredients for preparation already. Some were just there to buy themselves a treat, it was like any day at the store but a bit busier.

Brooklyn was first, a girl with emerald mint eyes, a blond highlighted pastel pink hair, in a messy bun. She had a cart with her, filled with delicious snacks and small delicacies. Cola, root beer, some packets of iced tea, mountain dew and doctor pepper were some of the beverages she bought, it was a lot but to her and her big group of friends, it wasn't. She stroll more from aisle to aisle, looking for what would satisfy her friends' taste. Doritos, Honey Butter Chips, some Cheetos, she took some packs and just placed them inside her cart with care, broken chips weren't appealing to anyone of course. The girl took more snacks like biscuits, she was getting hungry from looking at the foods she'd been taking but she didn't to conceal that for awhile. She dragged the now heavy cart to the cashier with the shortest line, she wasn't going to wait all day for this. She just hope her friends could be a bit patient since she knew she was going to be there for a bit.

Pia bit her lip, she wasn't tall enough for this. The raven haired girl was on her tip toes already, that can of whip cream was still out of her reach. Her own brother laughing at her, she still wasn't going to ask for help, she could do this on her own. She sensed her brother leaving her behind, he was probably going to get more of the ingredients she needed, well she hoped. They were already half of the list already, Joseph was actually being useful this times. She was grateful that he visited her and actually helped her, but of course being her brother he would probably tease her again and again. Her protogen mask wearing brother came back, he had a handful of the ingredients in the list, he smickered at her suffering as she still hasn't gotten the bottles of whip cream she needed. She got into this mess because her brother was teasing her about her height, so she decided she wanted to prove him that she wasn't short by trying to get the bottle from the top self. Her brother walked up to her and just took the bottle, he had fun wasting her time.

The group of friends were in the candy aisle, picking out candy they wanted. Victor tapped his girlfriend on the shoulder and gave her a bag of lollipops, Silver looked at him and asked if he wanted it. Cristian placed a box of chocolate-filled marshmallows inside the basket before smiling at Silver. Silver took some gummy bears from the shelves. Daven and Vixxi placed more candy inside, they were going to give it away to the children who would pass by their home. Silver gave her boyfriend the basket and told him that she was going to get something, he only nodded and held the basket for her. She walked towards the counter and asked where the dye was, of course the cashier answered where it was, she thanked them and left to get it. Everyone had gotten everything they needed, all of it was a simple tale. In the end, Brooklyn finally got to the front line and got her items, the siblings got all of their ingredients and the group of friends got their candies.
