Afonso had looked away for half a second and that monkey boy was already gone! It was more like taking care of a toddler than a bratty teenager, and Afonso put his hand to his forehead, rubbing his temples. At least the blonde one had stayed in his line of sight, right? Pushing the cart he'd grabbed forward, Afonso started looking between the aisles for Luciano, turning his attention to Martín.
In reality, he probably should have expected this. But somehow the idea of an easy supermarket trip was right there in his mind, and Afonso had chosen to ignore the nagging voice in his head about teenagers with short attention spans. "...Alright, if you were seventeen and had the attention span of a gnat and the stomach of a tiger, where would you go in a supermarket?"
Luckily, that question was answered for Afonso by the faint sounds of someone complaining in Portuguese. (That was a sound his ears were more attuned to.) Sighing and muttering something about "it's just cheese", the Portuguese motioned for Martín to follow him towards the back of the store. "Luciano!"
