Sakura; 8bit her tongue8
Spryman: Man, there's too much selection. Can't decide wat is the best one to get
Rory; 8looked round8
*there was an old Scottish-traditional store where no one seems to go in, despite putting up a sign hving promotional Mothers' Day offers*
Rory; 8went in8
*the others followed*
*inside the store, there were quite a lot of nostalgic items, old things u dont see today n something prolly no one would buy in these modern days, bt they were quaint n beautiful, n had a nice Scottish air to it*
Terry&Terra: Wow, feels like stepping into a time machine
Sakura; 8nods8
*the kids all chked out the things in display, n the owner of the shop, who is an old granny, watched in approval*
Rory; 8rubbed his chin8
Terry: Hey, how abt getting a music box for ur mom?
Kiaran: Mama already has a music box, Papa got it for him, it's an heirloom thing
Sakura; Princeless family heirloom Kairan
Kiaran: Fine, fine, PRICELESS heirloom
Terra: I think this porcelain music box is beautiful. Look, its a porcelain figure of a gargoyle dancing with a human in old Scottish ballroom attire. Wouldnt tht be nice for Mom?
Terrance; Beautiful
Terra: Wat do u think, Rory?
Rory; I'm sure your mother will love it
Terra: Then lets get this one then
Terry: How much for this porcelain music box, granny?
Sakura; 8smacked him upside the head at the granny comment8
Terry: *frowned* Wat? *whispered* The owner is an old lady

Shopkeeper: *chuckles goodnaturedly* It's abt 100 carbs during my time, bt I can give u an offer of 45, n dont worry, its OK, I dont mind being called granny. Its been yrs since I heard tht frm my own grandkids
Terry: *gives Sakura a "Told u so grin" then turned to Terra* Go Dutch?
Terra: Yup *takes out half her share n put it together with Terry's half n paid the shopkeeper*
Shopkeeper: *nodded, took the money n helped wrapped the music box with a nice rustic paper n a pretty bow n stuck a HAPPY MOTHERS' DAY sticker on it* Here ya go, laddie
