Matthew entered the little shop as he passed the cop giving him a nod. He had a little time to kill during his break before he had to get back to the construction site so he wanted to check out this little pawn shop. “Hidden treasures” he said as he read the sign on the door.
“Hello.” A baldheaded man behind the counter said.
“Hey.” Matthew said with a smile
“Anything I can help you with?” The shop keeper asked with a smile. Matthew nodded.
“Yea, I was wondering if you got any Video Games?” Matthew asked.
“Over there.” The shop keeper said with a smile and then he went to reading a newspaper.
“Thanks.” Matthew said as he went over to the display. Matthew had learned along time ago that pawn shops and flea markets where a good place to look for video games on a budget. And he was certainly on a budget. He had dropped out of school five years back after his parents died to raise his baby sister. He had even given up his collage fund so his sister could go. He had been working construction under the table ever since he dropped out. He checked out the games however all he found on display where games he had already played or he owned.
“This all you got?” He said looking up at the shop keeper.
“Yep, sorry most of my stuff is sold out by the end of the week.” The shop keeper said. Matthew just nodded and looked again before he went back to looking around the shop. He looked around for a little while before he found an old pair of shades on one of the shelf. It was one of those pair with the mirrored surface. He picked them up and tried them on. He found a little mirror on the shelf to check himself with. He liked them.
“See something you like?” The shop keeper said looking up at him.
“Yea, how much for these?” He said as he put the mirror down and walked over with the shades.
“Two bucks?” The shop keeper said. He reached into his pocket and fished out his wallet.
“Here you go.” He said handing the old man the money.
“Have a good day.” The bald man said as he smiled and put the money in the register.
“Thanks.” He said and headed out the door and down the street. He went several blocks before he got to really test them out as he saw two girls in bikini’s. His head didn’t move but his eyes where certainly checking them out. When they walked by him they didn’t even acknowledge he was there. He turned his head to get a good look at there ass as he walked into the cross walk. Suddenly as he turned his head back he saw a car that didn’t look like it wasn’t going to stop.
“Shit.” He yelled as he jumped back landing flat on his ass.
“Couldn’t you see me you son of a bitch.” He yelled as he raised his arm. Then he stop yelling when he noticed he couldn’t see his arm. He held his hand in front of his face but he couldn’t see it.
“What in the…” he said as he looked down but couldn’t see his body. He reached and touched his chest. He could fill it but he couldn’t see it. He looked around. He saw the two girls in bikini’s looking around. Hey had heard him but there where trying to figure out where they had heard someone yelling at. |
