Mackenzie sends a text back. "Sure. Meet you out in front in 20 minutes if that's good for you."
Marzanna takes out her phone and texts Mackenzie, "Hey, if you have the time to spare, I need to make a walmart run, could you meet me at the one in The Pit tonight?"
Mackenzie sends a text back. "Sure. Meet you out in front in 20 minutes if that's good for you."
Texts back, "Will do, see ya then."
Marzanna pulls into a parking place about 20 minutes later, gets out of the Escape, locks it and sets the alarm. She then leans against it and waits for Mackenzie to get there. When Mackenzie arrives, Marzanna walks over to her, smiles and says, "Hi, thanks for coming. I need to buy a new mp3 player, I accidentally broke mine the other night." Starts walking with Mackenzie into the store.
Mackenzie smiles. "I have never had one of those. Still old-fashioned with the cd players." She walks into the store and heads for the electronics department.
She notices everyone moving out of the way of the two of them and she seems slightly nervous about it for a moment. She looks at Marzanna. "This is usual for you, huh?"
Marzanna chuckles as she heads towards Electronics. "Yeah, this is normal. Its why I need your help." She laughs softly. "I cannot ever get anyone to come help me, so I need you to do that for me once I pick one out. I'll need you to give them my money as well." She thinks for a moment. "Maybe if I had a cd player, I wouldn't have had that accident with the mp3 player." She shrugs. "Oh well, I'll just buy a sturdier one this time."
She looks embarrassed for a moment. "Well, the other night I was listening to some music and thinking about him..." She gives Mackenzie a look, like you KNOW who I mean. "And I sort of got angry and I was holding it....and yeah it broke."
She walks over to the mp3 player case and starts looking at them. Pricing and seeing how much space they have. "Can you go get someone and have them pull out these two so I can check the information on the boxes?" She points to an Apple Ipod and a generic mp3 player.
Mackenzie smiles and nods. "I'm selective on my music because of that too." She looks at the two selections and heads over to an associate.
The associate pulls out the two items, looking extremely uncomfortable and hands them to Mackenzie. He stands there, shifting his weight. Mackenzie smiles to him and hands the items to Marzanna for her to look at.
She smiles at Mackenzie. "Yeah I should probably be as well apparently." Chuckles again at herself. She takes the boxes from Mackenzie one at a time, ignoring the associate. She looks over one and then the other. "I think that I will go with a black Apple Ipod."
As the associate gets the Ipod and takes it to the cash register, Marzanna pulls out the money for it and hands it to Mackenzie, "That should cover it."
Mackenzie takes the money and walks up to the register to pay. She watches the people around move out of the way, so that they move quickly to the front.
Her smile only does so much to help with the looks that are shot towards Marzanna. After paying for the item and handing Marzanna the change, she shrugs. "Somewhere less populated now?"
