grocery shopping was never my thing,
it was always your thing;
however, my dislike towards it not once
stopped me from going with you.
what would've taken less than thirty
minutes took over an hour;
mainly because i was a distraction
towards your list.
you'd part ways from me to go to
the produce before sending me on
my way to the dry foods.
when i'd return, i'd quietly pace
the items in the basket and watch
you frown while examining each
fruit.
you were so wrapped around
the expiration date you didn't
notice my presence until i'd come
up behind you and grab your butt.
although you turned around and
smacked my shoulder in annoyance,
i noticed you biting your bottom lip
holding back a smile.
to this day i still dread walking down
each aisle and waiting in line,
listening to the sounds of the scanners
reading the barcodes.
if i had it my way i would live off
of fast food and drive-thru diners
rather than a full fridge and
the only time i actually walked into
the grocer was when my mother was
in town and popped a gasket when
she'd open the fridge to see it empty.
then we'd end up here,
her on one side of the shop and me
on the other, attempting to read her
cursive writing and grab each item
she requested and demanded i'd
ought to have.
tapping my figure against the paper
i eyed the different creamers,
glancing between each different
brand. tapping my foot i groaned,
becoming irritated with myself
over the fact i could decide which
cream i was supposed to grab.
growing anxious i tossed both
of the creamers down in frustration.
i knew i had a scowl on my face and
looked like i was ready to explode
however the person beside my thought
otherwise by chuckling,
"never thought i'd see you here."
