A/N: Chapter two!! Thanks to my two reviewers!! (Hint: Keep reviews coming, it makes me eager to keep writing!! ;)
Last Time:
The manager handed Riley a stack of forms. Normally, he wouldn't have had a problem, except for the fact that this wasn't just an stack of forms. Nope, this stack was about ten feet high!
________________________________________________________________
Riley felt beads of sweat appearing on his forehead. He finally finished the last form and handed them all back to the manager.
"Here you are sir, all finished!" Riley smiled weakly at the manager.
"Why thanks! And please, call me Mr. Wilkinson!" Riley whirled around at this.
"Wilkinson?" He felt his heart rate drop very quickly.
"Yes, Ryan Wilkinson. You might have heard of my brother Mitch? He was killed discovering the Lost City of Cibola." The manager smiled. "I miss him, he was a great guy!"
"Yeah, I'm sorry for your loss." Riley choked out, before leaving the office as quickly as he could. What trouble would this cause, working for the brother of the man that tried to kill his friends?
Wearily, Riley walked into his beautiful apartment after a long day at work. It truly was a beautiful apartment though. Rich new carpet was all throughout, with fresh paint on the walls. It came fully furnished, and had a full bathroom. Two bedrooms and a kitchen completed the apartment. Never mind the three thousand dollar per month price-tag.
"Okay, time to order Chinese and relax." Riley thought over his long day as he placed his Chinese order.
FLASHBACK
"Okay ma'am, your order total is 365.89. Will that be cash or credit?" Riley smiled pleasantly at the woman.
"365.89! I have one gallon of milk and a loaf of bread. How could the total possibly be 365.89?" the woman practically screamed at him.
"Um," Riley frantically checked the receipt. His heart sank as he realized that when the machine asked for the quantity, he had entered the price. So it registered 245 gallons of milk, and 100 loaves of bread. "How do I fix it?" Riley wondered out loud. The sound of the woman's screams had brought the assistant manager running. She quickly fixed the problem, and made the lady happy again. Riley had received a stern lecture, and had been told to go home for the day. He had happily obeyed.
"Ah, the joys of grocery stores!" Riley said sarcastically.
"Lounging on his couch, Riley turned on the television. One of his favorite movies, Technology Unlimited, was playing, so he decided to watch it. He had no idea what was about to happen.
Sorry to leave you guys here, but to go into what happens next would make the chapter end weird. I promise to update soon though, to make up for it. I heard that the beautiful green button below lets you tell me, so why don't you try it? Ten NEW reviews = New Chapter!!!! (So then the review total will be twelve….since I didn't get ten last time!! :D)
P.S. I accept anonymous reviews!!!
