Summary: Tina gets into an 'argument' with a vending machine
The bell was going to ring in the next ten minutes or so, but Tina wanted to grab a bottle of juice before class started. She'd skipped breakfast, forgetting to eat because she'd been too distracted thinking about what had happened last night, and was now hungry. But she had zero desire to eat anything from the cafeteria. So some kind of liquid was going to have to do until lunch. There was a vending machine not far from the cafeteria that sold juice that had a pomegranate flavor mixed in there somewhere, and she kind of loved it. She slipped in the change, and then pressed the button with her fist. Nothing happened. She tired again, getting a little annoyed. It wasn't until her third try that she noticed the 'out of order' message flashing across a little screen on the machine. Tina cursed under her breath, pushing the button to return her change. Again, nothing happened. The damn machine ate her money. "Stupid machine." she said, tapping it lightly with her foot (she was in no way brave enough to actually kick the machine and get in trouble for attempting to damage school property). Narrowing her eyes in frustration, she turned, and was ready to stalk away when she heard the machine click, and the sound of a bottle falling reached her ears. Then another, then another. And then the sound of change hitting each other. Slowly, she turned. Her money had dropped. When she looked down at the area the juice was dispensed in, there was her selection. First she glanced up and down the hallway, before leaning down to pull out the bottle. Behind that bottle was another, and then another. Three bottles of juice, and her money back. Um, what? |
