It’s kind of fragmented now, I don’t remember it in its entirety. I got home from school with my friend, and, we had the bright idea to walk up to some dollar store downtown from my place. I wanted to go get slurpees and she wanted to fetch some snacks and maybe a new bathing suit if they were in stock. We walked down the parking lot and turned to see my neighbor’s friends smoking something in an alleyway between houses. I looked for my neighbor but I didn’t see him, quickly returning to talk to my friend. As we descended towards the hospital, I saw him though. He was carrying a shit ton of plastic bags full of food and drinks for his friends. I made some comment about him always working so hard for others and not enough for himself before departing to the store once again. The actual store was relatively small, it had windows all around and was tightly packed with short shelves and tables where foods and an assortment of random objects lie. I skipped to the back to get myself a pina colada slurpee and returned to the register. The lady working there looked at the two bathing suits my friend chose and asked her why she would even consider buying them from the dollar store (My friend is filthy rich and is always wearing couture or designer). She said she just needed the extra change and at that, we gathered our things and left. I don’t remember too much else apart from going back to school and bumping into Will, one of my neighbor’s apparent new friends, who was going on about some rave at my neighborhood. I was drunk I think because I kept swaying side to side, finding everything a bit incomprehensible at that moment. My eyes were going cross eyed and I thought briefly that I had been drugged.
