You ask the shop owner questions
From Create Your Own Story
You decide to ask the shop owner questions.
You walk up to the tall man behind the counter and ask "How old are you?"
He answers with "sorry?" He doesn't really comprehend the reason for you asking this question. You get closer to him and repeat the question. He gives you an answer "I am 19 mate, why do you ask?"
You reply with "I was just wondering how old you have to be to get to work and make money to buy nice things"
His facial expression changes, he begins to search around. "Where are your parents mate?"
You see some money on the floor, it is 5 pounds. You leave the store by running, the store owner chases you but you beat him out of the store and cross the road. You continue to walk along the road and you find a coffee shop. You have always seen big city men and tired overworked people buy coffee. You never really understood why. You began to think it was to do with making money. Coffee makes you win money. So you enter the store and purchase a coffee. The lady at the counter asks "what type of coffee?"
You answer with "whatever is under 5 pounds and is coffee."
She laughs and says okay and makes a latte and serves it to you. You pay for it and walk out. To think coffee is to win money is quite innocent and childish. At 12 you should know how the world works but because of the lack of education and the poorer background you have no clue about coffee. You take a gulp and spit it back out. You get it all over a man in a suit. He stops, and looks at you angrily. Then begins to yell and makes an attempt to grab you. He grabs you and chucks you into his car.
