Chapter Two: "Rezzy Leon and the Cashier"
Standing there, alone, with the shoelaces in his hand, Rezzy is hesitant on the fact that he must go to the only checkout line open. "NEXT PLEASE!", the cashier demanded. "Um... hello," Rezzy Leon mumbles to the cashier. "Hello, sir, have you found everything you needed on this fine night?", the cashier asks in a very relaxed voice.
"Um... yes, I have. And this night isn't fine for me."
"Why not?"
"Long story..."
"I'm sorry to hear. That'll be $2.13, by the way."
Rezzy then reaches in his pocket and pulls out two one-dollar bills, a dime, and two pennies, one penny short of paying the full price.
"Erm...", he says. "I'm a penny short."
"Sounds like a personal problem, sir," the cashier said carelessly.
"bitch," Rezzy mumbles.
"What was that?"
"Oh noth..."
*BOOM!*
A loud bang went off abruptly, causing the Q Store to go in a blackout. Everyone in the store started to be in a panic, wondering what happened. Rezzy overheard one person, asking if there was a blackout because the store was sold out of Halloween costumes. "Well, isn't this just perfect?," Rezzy says satirically.
"I still need that penny, sir," the cashier calmly demands. "I still need you to hold on a minute, um..." Rezzy then tries to look at the cashier's name tag, but cannot be able to do such, thanks to the pitch blackness in the store. "...yeah...," Rezzy utters, finishing his sentence.
"I'll need that penny sooner or later."
"Bitch, listen! The power went out, and I'm a penny short! Please! Calm your tits, PLEASE!"
"So what the power went out? I'm just trying to do my job."
"Oh yeah, so getting paid eight dollars an hour. That's a job."
"If I'm getting paid, it's a job."
"Whatever."
Rezzy then turns around and yells out in the midst of everyone's panic, "DOES ANYONE HAVE A PENNY I CAN USE?"
"SIT THE FUCK DOWN AND WAIT UNTIL THE POWER COMES BACK ON!", one voice randomly yells in response. "Unbelievable!", Rezzy pouts.
To his misfortune, Rezzy just took back the cash he handed the cashier and walked out of the store empty-handed and sat on the concrete ground with his back up against the store wall. "It's too cold to sit out here," he says. He then decided to go back into the store, despite the fact that there's no power in there and there are people freaking out about it. Right when he walked in, someone had closed the door with a loud *CLUNK*, followed by the noise of chains, locking the doors. "WHY DID I JUST WALKED BACK IN HERE?!", Rezzy yelled. "Hey! I recognize that annoying voice!", the cashier says. "Sir, have you found a penny yet?"
