"Why is Melony looking for me?" Mat asked straightening up.
"She wanted you to do help her with science home work," Tyler answered.
"Of course," Mat sighed somewhat disappointed. "So I take it that she is at your house?"
"Where else would Sis be doing her homework?" Tyler shot back.
Mat felt the sudden need to slap his forehead hard and fast, but he restrained just enough to keep a calm apearence. Mat gave Tyler a look over and finally picked him up out of the shopping cart.
"So where did you steal the cart from?" Mat asked as he lifted the child out of the basket. The sudden smell of sweat engrossed Mat's nose. Children at such a young age..... Mat though to himself I'm glad I don't have a brother.
"Um well.......Mr. Myres's shop........" Tyler started.
"Dad's shop????" Mat nearly yelled.
Lately the carts had been missing......so this is where they have been going off too..... Mat thought to himself. He smacked Ty on the head before setting him down on the pavement.
"Ow," Ty said complaningly. "Don't be mean Mat.......I'll return the cart....."
"Ya right. I bet you're the one whose been stealing them all," Mat answered bending down to Ty's level. "Don't worry. I bet Dad will just have you work in the shop for a few weeks."
"O.....k......." Ty said carefully trying to see if Mat was joking or not.
