“I’m assuming it’s not poisoned.”

Kieran nodded and held out an Oreo to Jake. 'Oreo?'

“Thanks.” Jake grinned, taking the Oreo.

Looking around the shop, Kieran spotted something from the corner of his eye - an avocado.
'AVOCADOS!' he yelled, dropping the Oreos and running over to the avocados. 'YEAH BOYYYYYYYYYYYYY!'

Jake ate his Oreo and watched Kieran fanboy over avacodoes.

He grabbed an avocado, then hesitated. 'Wait…' He looked around the store. 'Don't think they sell knives at a small shop like this. And I don't think they got any toasters.' He gazed sadly at the avocado in his hand as he sat on the floor. 'My avocado toast plan is… ruined.'

“Aren’t there other stores?”

'The city's a bit far away…' he replied, standing up. He spotted a couple of bags. 'Let's not worry about avocado plans. We should probably take a bag full of food.'

“And water.” Jake said, nodding.

Kieran nodded, before grabbing an unsold backpack and throwing it at Jake's feet. 'Pack some water, nutritious food, stuff that'll last in the heat in a bag, maybe some other stuff we might need… you okay to do that?' He then looked over at the cash register curiously and had a sudden thought. 'Hmmm…' He put that thought to rest–the shop may have been abandoned, but it still might be someone's money.

“I’ll try, though I don’t have much common sense…” Jake said, picking the bag up and started walking around the aisles.

Kieran hummed in response, but the thought was still there. 'Jake… will we need any money?'

“I mean, maybe.” Jake said absentmindedly, taking a pack of cookies.

His eyes flickered back to the cash register. 'You-you reckon we should take some? No one's here…'

Jake paused, he looked at the cash register warily. “I-I mean…I..” The fight for integrity.

'Fuck it, we've got nothing to lose, we're stuck on this god damn island.' Kieran strutted over to the cash register. He found a key in one of the drawers behind the counter, and opened up the register.
Nothing.
'Oh, fuckin' wankers emptied it,' he shouted, then covered his mouth. 'Sorry for my bad language. It's empty.'

“It’s fine.” Jake shrugged, “And yeah, I noticed when you looked at it and yelled.”

Kieran slammed the register shut. 'Aye, you collected anything? I'll help, too.'

"I… relatively." Jake said, "Some help would be nice."

He nodded and grabbed a backpack before heading over to Jake. 'You'll need stuff that's nutritious and delicious. I don't think we necessarily need stuff that lasts long, considering we're heading into the city, but we'll need a lot of water.' He grabbed four large bottles of water and handed them to Jake. 'You can start with putting these in the bag, we gotta stay hydrated.'

“Right.” Jake nodded, taking the bottles and putting them in the bag.

'And… maybe some bread? Everyone loves bread.'

Jake grabbed two loaves and put them in the bag, “I only like bread with certain spreading.”

'I can eat bread by itself, please don't judge me.'

“How can you eat something so.. bland but okay.” Jake said, trying not to judge Kieran.
