Chapter 8 (old)
-----------------------------------------------------
Wirt woke up one morning, he looked at the time. It was the early afternoon on a Sunday. He had nothing to do that day watched a TV marathon. When his mom told him to go to the store with a list.
"Alright mom, I'm going!"
"Thanks sweetie!"
They called to each other as Wirt was in front of the door and his mom was in the kitchen working on bills.
-------------------
A red haired girl named Beatrice had walked out her house upset. Her dad was arguing with her brother and sister about which TV to get in the living room and where to put it.
They then dragged her into it and then kicked her out of it for not agreeing on their sides. Her mom told her to just go out and get some mushrooms for dinner. She's making soup, Mushroom soup.
-----------------------------------
Wirt found the store and went in, He scanned the isles for a few items that do not seem to be there. So he when to customer service and waited.
--------------------------------------------------
Beatrice went into the store and cheeked if she brought the money for the mushrooms. She has forty dollars.
"That should be enough."
She when to the fresh produce isle and saw the mushrooms. Picking one up, she walked to cashier. There was a line.
"I hate waiting."
-----------------------------------
Wirt frowned when he found out that they where low on stock right now. He nodded and sighed. Went to buy what he could get. a red haired girl was in front of him. Then someone cut in front of them both.
"Hey!", they both said.
Then they glanced at each other and went back to glaring at the line cutter.
"I was up!"
"Too bad, I was just faster that you. So stop whining!"
The person that cut had a pack of gum and a jar of pickles. They were low on money and looked at her and snatched her wallet.
"Hey! You can't do that."
"Come on, just be nice and lend me money. I'll pay you back!"
"Fat chance! Give it back!"
She reached out for her wallet and the line cutter pushed her a way. She fell down and Wirt helped her up, she glared at the line cutter.
"Give it back, thief!"
"No, I need the money."
"Why?"
"It's none of your business!"
"Excuse me, but don't you think you are making a scene? Also...you are holding up the line. Please hand back the wallet and here. This is what you needed right?"
Wirt handing over some money. They begrudgingly gave back the wallet and took the money Wirt handed.
-----------------
They both, Wirt and Beatrice, walked out of the store. She kept glancing at him with a look on her face. Finally she said what was eating at her.
"Why did you just give them your money? That was dumb."
"Easier that let it escalate into a problem. People can be petty."
'I guess...I'm Beatrice."
"Wirt."
"Well...bye."
"Good bye."
-----------------------------------------------
"Hey, sweetie. Did you get the groceries?"
"Yeah, mom. But, the store was low on a few things and I had to get only a few things. Is a few substitutes okay?"
"I suppose, but I will have to go back and get the real stuff another time then."
"Okay."
"Are you going out later, dear?"
"Nah, I think I will stay home and do some homework, mom."
"Okay."
Wirt then walked up to his bed room.
----------------------------------------------------
Beatrice got home and threw the mushroom's are her mom who caught it.
"Bad throw, no wonder you lost this season."
"Shut up, they were dirty cheats and you know it."
"Sure, and your Father was hot in high school."
A indignant "Hey!" was heard from up stairs.
Beatrice smiled with her mom and laughed. Her mom patted her head and Beatrice went into the living room to watch TV. There was no TV, yet. It hasn't come in the mail.
"Why is there a hole in the wall and why is couch up side down?"
"No reason!", said Her brother, sister and Father.
Beatrice sighed and went to her room to sleep.

Note:
I have only ever written eight chapters before forgetting about this. I might write more chapters, I might not. I only had ideas for this and not a real outline.
