Keeping up the queue
...
"Why?"

"Just do it, Please-."

Sighing I nod. "Fine, but you owe me ice cream after this."

Max shoves clothes in my arm, a big smile displayed on his handsome face. "You bet K, now go." He puch me to the queue.

I waited almost eight minutes before I was in the front of the line.

'Geuss this clothes shop will never let me set foot in here again'

"Hi." I greated the guy behind the till. He was the only one maning the tills, no wonder this place is so busy.

He seemed to be in his early twenties and having a bad day.

He didn't great me back but started scanning the mountain of clothes.

I glance back at the people behind me... the queue was dangerously long. Swolling I looked back at the guy who was trying his best to hurry up...

"You sell nice dresses." I sigh inwardly as I grab two of the three dresses.

"Hmm."

I look at the twoo dresses, one was plain blue and the other was a pink one with flowers on, it was actually pretty dresses.

"Oh I'm so nerves, I'm going on a date tonight with this guy I really like."

"Sounds fun."

"Yeah, I hope he like the dress I'm going to wear." I held the pink one a bit higher, looking at the guy who's still busy scanning clothes.

"What do you think, should I wear this one?"

"Sure." He didn't even look up at the dress. Rude mutch.

"Just sure," I gasp, "So you don't like it, maybe I should shop for something else then or at a different shop maybe."

"No, it won't be necessary, the dress look pretty, now would you please hurry Mam, the line behind you is long."

"Yeah but how do I look?" I held it in front of me. It can't just look, fine."

"Just remember that my taste are different than your date's okay, but you would look pretty in it."

'Look who's talking now, I'll remember to say that I will shop somewhere els more often...'

"So you like it?" I ask with a big smile. He nods with a smile that doesn't really reach his eyes.

"I'll take them then." He leened over the till to take it, but I only gave him the pink one.

"What do you think about this blue one?" Sighs burst out behind me making me feel bad for all those people's.

"Oh, that one's pretty too." He said ringing up the pink dress.

"No, this one cant be just pretty... it should be beautiful, I look like a nut in plain colors."

"Y'all look beautiful in it." Irritation was dropping all over the place as he talks.

"Aww, you think, wouldn't it be too much then?"

The guy eyed the queue behind me. "Would you please hurry up Mam."

'I was about to tell him I'm not a Mam, I'm eighteen thank you, but kept it to myself.'

"Oh wait! The green dress, I forgot to take that one too!" I looked at him with big eyes. "I'll be back in a minute.."

"No need Mam," He quickly stops me. "Already scaned that one, all these would be four hundred."

Eich, would he kik me out of here if he knows I only have a hunder.

"Let me see that green dress just..."

"Come on!" Someone mumbles behind me.

"Hey, stop thief!" I heard Max yell.

Max runned through the racks of clothes, tripping over people and shoes and clothes.

Everyone was staring at him. "Someone stop that thief!" A guy shouts. Two guys who was at the back of the queue started running after Max to help him.

Max was moving down the racks tripping over nothing, purposely running into hangers as he was chasing no one. I had to give it to him,he was pretty good pretending to chase a thief.

"Stop!" Max yells as he headed for the exit. The guy who was the only one maning the tills, cursed aloud, following Max and the two guy out of the store to catch the thief.

A woman apeird a few seconds later behind the till, she shoved the bag full of clothes in my arms, calling the next customer.

I exited the shop with a smug smile on my face and a shopping bag full of clothes.
