Irregular Choice
I was out with some friends of mine and we were planning on going on a long trip somewhere. It may have been a camping trip but I only had my backpack with me. We were somewhere in the suburbs of South East London at a train station trying to find the right train to get on. There was some arguing about the trains and about food. It was a sunny day with a crispy breeze and the train station was remarkably clean. There were lots of women in suits walking around the local area.. and a few men in suits. We left the station to try to find a supermarket of some sort to get some food. Inside we decided on buying bread rolls and filling rather than buying sandwiches. I still can't recall where we were going or how long for, but given that we were purchasing fridgable stuff, probably not too far.
Ossai was sitting in between one of the aisles. She was pissed off for some reason, I wanted to talk to her about the tuna, but she couldn't hear me becuase her music was too loud. Her walkman was strange..like some kind of transformer since there were three parts to it. I didn't know how to operate it, but she couldn't hear what I was saying, so I disconnected the smallest part of the walkman. The music stopped but she had a dazed look on her face like she wasn't all there. I walked away carrying the walkman piece with me. I was looking for the other girls then I heard Ossai yelling at me.
"ALL YOU CAN THINK ABOUT IS NEW SHOES!"
I admit, I love new shoes and I do want a pair, but I didn't know where this outrage came from. She couldn't see me so I yelled back that I didn't know what she was talking about. "We're all broke and you only care about your shoes," said she as she walked past me to the exit of the supermarket. I was left standing there thinking about the last time I mentioned shoes...but it never came to me.
