Chapter #3
Pills in all different forms and kinds!
by: Unknown
You throw on a decent pair of pants and head down the block to a nearby drug store, dodging the occasional late-night pedestrian. Nothing too extravagant; the generic drugs, snacks, drinks and other strange oddities they stock. When you get down there, someone new greets you. The store is owned by a nice pair of elderly labs who moved from Eastern Europe in the late 1950’s. Now a young tiger runs the till. He’s in his late teens by the looks of it, the first longer hairs of a beard beginning to come in. He wears a jacket and a nondescript tee, and a pair of clean jeans. He seems a little on the pudgy side, however; maybe around 160 or so.
“Hey there! What can I get’cha for tonight?” he asks.
“I need something to help me get to sleep.” You tell him.
“Well, the over-the-counter meds are over in the aisle next to the snacks.”
“I’ll tell you what, though…” he starts. “If you’ll eat a good meal and then take these, they’ll knock you out cold. Whaddya say?”
