A Love Trap
Chapter 73 The Curious Boy
Shopping in the supermarket was a common thing for Ashley and Ellie. But Greyson had never shopped like this before. It was his first time at a supermarket
and he looked around in wonder and curiosity.
Ashley's question brought him back. Averting his eyes from the rows and rows of shelves, he replied innocently, blinking to take everything in, "Yes. This is my first time here." His reaction elicited giggles from Ashley and Ellie.
A couple passed by, pushing their shopping cart forward. To Greyson's immense surprise, he found a little boy sitting in the cart beside the vegetables they were shopping. "Ashley, what's that? It's so practical! I can't believe it is big enough to contain vegetables and a little boy!" Greyson exclaimed, pointing excitedly at the cart.
Ashley looked up at the couple with the shopping cart. The little boy, nestled comfortably in the cart, was only two or three years old. And as he spotted Ashley looking at him, he giggled and waved his tiny hands at her.
Amused at Greyson's excitement, Ellie smiled and pulled a shopping cart towards them.
"This is called shopping cart. You usually choose one when you shop in the supermarket. And the reason why it's so convenient is that you can put snacks, vegetables or anything you want in it, even a little kid. Is that clear?" Ashley explained patiently.
Greyson nodded. "But only little kids? What a pity! I'd have loved to be able to sit in it too," he murmured and looked almost wistfully at the shopping cart.
Then he whirled around towards Ellie and asked with the most innocent and puppy-dog eyes, "Ellie, can I push this cart? Please! Come on, let me try it!"
This supermarket was his world right now; a world full of curiosities waiting to be explored.
"Of course. Here you go. But be careful and don't push it too fast," Ellie explained, showing him how to push the cart.
Greyson excitedly took it from Ellie and pushed the cart through the aisles, looking around in wonder.
Ashley and Ellie followed him. This trio of very good-looking ones captured the attention of people who passed by.
It wasn't a surprise when they turned heads wherever they went.
Greyson came to a halt in front of the snack shelves and the girls skidded to a stop just behind him. His eyes lit up as he took in the rows of snacks. The beautifully designed and the brightly colored packets of food made Greyson fall for them, hook, line, and sinker.
