As we arrived in store, Martine told us to wait near the entrance while she went and talked to a supervisor. Then she waved us through. “Once the first announcement has been made, you can begin. Don’t forget to approach customers while wearing these lanyards.” She passed us all an identity badge on a lanyard that said we were market researchers.

“I feel like I’m being deliberately confused so I don’t get paid.” Mandy complained.

“Mandy’s not passing anytime soon.” I whispered to Destiny.

“Bonus for us. Martine’s going to be so distracted by guiding Mandy, that she won’t know what we’re doing.” A twinkle appeared in Destiny’s eyes.

“And what are we doing?”

“As little as possible and then we’re going up there.” Destiny pointed to the cafe on the second floor.

“I swear if I wasn’t married, and was gay, you’d be my ideal partner.” I told her.

We wandered around the store looking in people’s baskets and trolleys, but it was mainly mums with toddlers.

“Look at Max sucking up to that guy. He’s obviously just like his sister, wanting to be top of the class.” I narrowed my eyes in his general direction. Then watched as the guy passed him his number.

“Wrong. He wants to be top of that ass.” Destiny did one of her loud guffaws that had the whole store turning around.

“We need to get something down for our project soon or we’ll not get our coffee. I need help.” I said. No sooner were the words out of my mouth than four hunky workmen walked into the store, followed by four women from a beauty salon.

We hurried over before anyone else got to them, but no one else seemed to have even noticed they’d walked in.

“Good morning. We’re doing market research today.” Destiny explained. “Could we ask you a few questions as you shop around?”

They didn’t look too sure, so I spoke. “All you have to do is buy your shopping as usual. The questions aren’t too probing. Can we start with what you’ve come in to buy?”

One of the men scratched his head. “Well, I was actually on my way to Sally’s Sandwich Shop. That’s where we go every morning, but the next thing I knew, I was here.”

One of the women joined in. “Samesies. I was going to get a bacon bap from McDonalds, but my inner voice guided me here.”

The man and the woman looked at each other. I sent out my Cupid senses. Single tingles.

“Well, we were just going to get coffee. There’s a cafe upstairs. It does bacon baps and fry ups. Why don’t you come and join us?” I asked.

They all said yes, and we showed them to the supermarket cafe. This was fantastic. Now we had a genuine excuse to be in the cafe and I could even have a full English.

“How did this happen?” Destiny asked me, as she tucked into eggs Benedict. “One minute we needed help, the next there these people were. It was like magic.” She said.

Then I realised. Shelley’s spell, set to help me when I needed it.
