Scorpius had his arms full of grocery bags. More than he ought to be carrying at once, up the steep sandy path to the bungalows. Maybe he should have bought less, but he needed a good amount of food to prepare a proper meal fit for his mother's tastebuds. She needed to be wined and dined before he broke the news to her. A full stomach usually softened a bad blow.
His arms shook a little, straining under the weight. Where the hell was Hugo when he needed his brute strength? Hones–
"Bloody hell!" Scorpius yelped as his shoe caught on something and sent him tumbling forward. He, and the brown paper bags, spilled across the dirt path. It might have been fortunate that he landed on a bag of flour, had the flour bag not split open and covered his face in white.
Groaning, Scorpius dragged himself up to assess the damage. All his food was scattered on the ground – mangos, beets, potatoes, papayas, paper-wrapped fish, and more. Thankfully, the fruit and vegetables could be washed, and most of the rest could be salvaged. Except for about half of the flour.
Scorpius thought he managed to get away with it unseen, and therefore not humiliated, when a shadow fell over his hand that was reaching for a beet.
