Story 129
Entering the Store
Even though I was working a part-time shift at a convenience store, it was late at night, there were no customers, and I was bored. I was fiddling with my phone while sitting at the register.
After spending a good amount of time playing a game, suddenly the âstore entryâ chime rang out. I instinctively lifted my head and called out,
âWelcome!â
But there was no one there. What was that? Maybe the wind had blown something, and the sensor reacted? Thinking that, I went over to the door, but there was nothing at all that seemed unusual. Puzzled, I scratched my head.
âClunkâ
A sound came from behind me. I turned around and looked at the register.
There, an âonigiriâ that hadnât been there a moment ago was now sitting on the counter.
