One of Marcella's least favourite chores outside of work was shopping, which is why she'd usually do it online but as yet, the case has been far too hectic for her to have been able to. Tim offered to take her to the supermarket and they soon arrived.
"I could still just do this online, you know?" she moaned as she took off her seatbelt.
"Stop complaining, we're here now." he looked at her and smiled and her fake grimace at the mere thought of stepping foot in a supermarket, something she has rarely done since Emma and Edward were younger. Once inside, Marcella was almost overwhelmed, she had no idea where to even begin. "Right, what do we need?" he asked and he turned to her.
"She looked around, hoping something would catch her eye and it would be a good starting point for her, but it didn't. "Erm, everything. This and that."
"Very helpful, Marcella. You got a list?"
"No, I usually do it online and there you don't really need a list." she replied. Tim's rolled his eyes and laughed again, "It's not funny." she said with a smile, trying not to find his reaction amusing.
"Tim was amused by Marcella's complete lack practice for shopping that wasn't done online, "Come on, it's a supermarket, not Mars. You can resume your unsocial shopping skills next time." he joked. Tim grabbed a trolley and wheeled it in and began pushing it as Marcella walked around, placing items in as they passed them. She wasn't exactly happy with having to actually do her big food shop in the actual supermarket, but at least it was getting done.
It took Marcella much longer than she would've liked to do this and they finally finished and payed for their shopping. Tim packed the bags into the car and took the trolley back, "Now, that wasn't quite so bad, was it?"
"Remind me to never allow myself to have to do that again." she requested as she got into the car. Tim laughed and too got in to drive them back home./p
