It was a normal Tuesday lunchtime and Eva still hadn't made it to Broadway instead she was stuck in Grays and so she thought to make the best of it she would treat herself and splurge out on a little trip to IKEA to buy her first wardrobe as the clothes in her room were now getting difficult to manage. She had convinced herself that it was alright until she found her cat Jude under a pile of clothes skinny & frozen from fear. She grabbed her keys said goodbye to husband and kids and went on her way to Ikea.

She arrived at IKEA around midday and by then she was absolutely starving. She grabbed her trolley and strolled inside. Unaware of who she was about to meet. She strolled up and down the maze looking for wardrobes and after a good hour of looking she gave up and decided that she would still treat herself to some of Ikea's famous Meatballs. As she strolled into the cafeteria she heard the news she dreaded ,blast over the speakers" WE ONLY HAVE ONE MORE SERVINGS OF MEATBALLS FOR THE DAY,GET EM NOW PEOPLE". Eva's palms started going sweaty and an ounce of stress washed over her. But Eva had been an athlete in school and was a fine runner ( apart from the time when she cried in front of the whole school on sports day but we won't go into detail). Eva dashed for the kitchen her trolley leading the way at top speeds. Until BANG !!!!!something ginger flew in front of the trolley and Eva steered into it. She heard the thud and then an ear piercing scream- it was a ginger child she had had committed a hate crime against a ginger ( a thing that many people dreamt of doing) . "Lol sorry" Eva said and she stepped over the screaming child " should have looked where your going dumbass". As she grabbed her serving of meatballs she saw the mother of the ginger creature running up to her. " YOU EVIL BITCH " she screamed, the things mum wore blue scrubs which gave away she worked in a hospital, she had the initials R.D on her name badge and had longish strawberry blonde hair. " sorry but you should control your creation " Eva said directing her view to the child on the floor. " RIGHT YOU WANT A WWE FIGHT -BRING IT " the women in scrubs screamed ,fists ready to fight.! The women went to throw the first punch when a brown haired man also in scrubs screamed"NOOOO ROWANN". Eva's mind stopped That name was familiar to her but she couldn't remember where from. It only took a few seconds before she remembered It was Rowan from school ! " IT'S EVA FROM SCHOOL,ROWAN
.ITS ME " she screamed. Rowan put down the stethoscope she was about to knock Eva out with. " Your taking the piss,I thought you were on Broadway ,that's what you have said all over your Instagram ". " ... I was lying I live in grays in a council estate and have a hoarding problem". " let me get your number, we should try meet up some time with Megan and Maddie- I'm sure if we contact them on Instagram they will answer. " Oh and before I forget this is my husband Michael from Russia, Eva." "Nice to meet you" he said sheepishly. " Right I better be off" Rowan replied" thanks for hitting my child with your trolley I'll text you soon as I can " she smiled and headed for the exit. They all waved as they neared the exit except the little girl who was too scared to look Eva in the eyes. Eva's trip at IKEA hadn't gone exactly to plan but she was done for the day and began heading out for her car. The day had had a nice ending and everything was peaceful- that was until she saw an old dear bump her trolley into her precious car. An agitated Eva stormed over and before the women could express her sympathy and apologises Eva had hit her round the head she had tumbled to the floor. Other members of the public saw the commotion and ran over, they were visibly angry so Eva jumped in her car and locked the doors ,ready for her escape. People started banging on the windows demanding that she came out. Eva saw the IKEA manager walking towards the car and she dreaded being banned from another IKEA again. People had began getting their phones out and recording the situation & more people began to get involved.So she put her car in reverse and despite causing a bit of damage to the other cars around her she made a successful escape home. Another day well done.
