Hello everyone, welcome back to another one of my random irl encounters. Today, I will be sharing 2 stories about my experiences in Target.
Here is the background before we get started.
So, as you may or may not know (that depends if you guys are one of my friends in reality) I go to school all the way in Santa Ana, since we are constantly changing locations every now & then, my mom has decided it would be better for me to just walk to Target after school to get picked up there, since it's usually the closest to the campus.
#1: The Begining of the Chain.
It all started in 10th grade, when my school was settling in on our 2nd location. It was after school & I was walking alone to Target, it was a boring sight to see when trekking to the only Target around Santa Ana, so like always, I kept my head down.
I made my way into the entrance of the store & took a seat at my usual spot at Starbucks coffee (it's like right there at the entrance when you 1st enter). I open up my notebook & I'm just thinking about what to draw, it wasn't until maybe about 10 minutes later when I hear shouting.
It was coming from the exchange desks, which were right next to Starbucks. It was some guy, with a not so full beard, & if I remember correctly, he wore a hoodie, some shorts, & I believe flip flops?
Anyways, I wondered what had happened, I look up, & I see another man, he was black, sort of tall, had a pot belly, but was skinny, yet he looked like he was in his late 20s or early 30s. He had a grocery bag in one hand that belonged to Target, he was exiting out of the entrance doors, he gave a weird look to the man who had just shouted earlier. The crazy man looked at him & literally shouted in his face, "WHAT ARE YOU LOOKIN AT NIGGER?!"
Like, I'm not kidding when he said that, I saw that &I was like wtf...?
Then, once the pot bellied man was only a few inches out the door, a pair of security guards went after him, one male, the other female. The man who had just shouted at him, sat on the exchange desk that was right Next to the entrance.
Outside, the man looked puzzled to why he was being taken back inside the store, both the security guards grabbed both his arms & took him to the back room of Starbucks, I'm not sure what they were doing, but whatever is was, they took a long time (because when I was leaving, they never came out).
Then after they took him in, the crazy man who was sitting near the entrance, got up & looked back at the store, & shouted, "FUCKIN FAGGOTS!!!" Then he left after that.
#2: The Man who has some serious Anger Issues.
This was when I had credit recovery. Again, here I am again at Starbucks, but not sitting at my usual spot, my friend, Monique was sitting with me. We both talked about some weird shit that had happened in our lives &I told her about the man who was shouting out offensive stuff, &I also told her about a woman who was angry about the items she bought (I didn't include this story because it wasn't as interesting), & after a while, Monique had to leave the store, so I was left alone once again.
However, I was in for another outburst, & another story to tell Monique, & get this, this just happened like about 5 minutes just after she left.
So again, I'm just drawing, & I hear a commotion coming from the exchange desks. Even thought it was clearly none of my business, I decided to have a look see. I look up, & in the middle deck, a man with a backpack, wearing a black t-shirt, & sweatpants was sort of starting an argument with the lady who was manning the desk, apparently he was trying to exchange a container of wipes or whatever it was, & he sort of had a problem with Target's system. The woman kept on telling him if he had a problem, he could just talk to their manager, but he just kept talking back, saying that the manager wouldn't believe him, & when she tried to call him down, he did an unbelievable thing.
He was so fed up with her, that he just took the item & literally just threw it at her, it was a good thing she dodged it, it flew past her & it hit the wall behind her. The man stormed off, the security guard who was right there, tried to stop him, but the man just said, "Get the fuck away from me." Then he left through the entrance. 3-4 security guards were chasing after him.
5-10 minutes later, they came back & one of them said to eachother, "That guy was a weenie..." & from Starbucks, I couldn't have agreed more with him.
It was because of those 2 scenarios, I don't really sit at Starbucks to wait for my mom ad much anymore.
Bonus: Guess who I just saw again...
I'm in 11th grade now, & my school has moved locations again, only this time, it's much farther, so I have to take the bus.
It was just this Wednsday it had happened, I took a late bus because I was forced to stay after school for physics office hours. & I'm so glad I did, because I saw my friend Indevanox again (I didn't see her again because different grades are in different locations, until that time). So I sat by her, &like the geeks we are, we talked about or ocs, our favorite fandoms, alk that stuff.
As we got to the church the bus always drips us off at, we had to part ways & I was walking alone once again to Target. This time, it was a much longer walk than before.
It was just about normal when walking, until I get near the Walgreens that's near the pedestrian traffic lights.
I hear a man shouting, it was very familiar. I could've sworn I heard it before. So as I walk even further, I then realize who it was. It was the same man from the 1st outburst, & he was crossing the street from my right, to the street where I was on, & I don't think he waited for the cars to stop, because they all just zoomed past him as he was walking. I also noticed that he wasn't in between the lines of the crossing path.
He kept shouting repeatedly, "DONT TOUCH ME YOU FUCKING FAGGOT!!!"
& when he got to the sidewalk, he started to advance to my direction, I was a tiny tad bit freaked out, so I went over to the grass area to avoid him, people who had walked past him, he shout out the same thing he had just shouted out earlier. & I think he shouted that out to me as well.
He finally stopped at a power box & started to shout out the same offensive sentence.
He was so loud that I was able to gear him from across the street about 5-8 miles away from him.
After that, I'm kinda worried, what if he might hurt someone? Maybe, his offensive words are the beginning of it all.
