Who: Alex Manes & Open What: Weekly shopping When: Sunday Afternoon Where: Walmart Warnings: None so far Status: Open/Ongoing
Over the last two years, Alex had gotten used to cooking for one, himself. Now living with Maria, and pretty much Sean as well, they were having to do a lot more food shopping. Especially since Maria had people to actually cook for now. And with everyone working, Alex had taken to doing the grocery shopping on Sundays. It was only once he was at the the store that Alex realized he should have just ordered it all online and had it delivered.
It wasn't that he'd forgotten what next weekend was, it was just that he was trying to ignore it. He really didn't do well with fireworks unless he was prepared for it. And it seemed like everyone in town was picking up stuff for barbecues for the week. It was more crowded than usual, and people didn't seem to have a problem pushing against others to get what they wanted.
Or even worse, just standing in front of things while paying more attention to their phone.
"Excuse me, can I just get by you to get the peppers there?" He really wasn't in the mood to try and stretch past them right now.
