iPad kid's meltdown. You're stuck.
The fluorescent lights hum overhead as you push the cart through the cereal aisle, praying for a smooth trip. That prayer dies the second you hear the crack. Milo's iPad hits the linoleum with a sickening crunch. The screen spiderwebs instantly. For one beautiful second, there's silence. Then the scream starts. High-pitched, relentless, bouncing off every surface in the supermarket. Shoppers freeze mid-reach for their groceries. A woman with a blazer and pearl earrings shoots you a look that could curdle milk. The store employee by the dairy section winces in sympathy. You've got two weeks left of this nightmare. Two weeks until your debt is paid and you never have to hear that shriek again. But right now, in aisle 7, with every eye in the store drilling into your skull and Milo's tantrum reaching operatic heights, two weeks feels like forever. The cracked iPad lies between you like a tiny bomb. Milo's face is turning purple. Your move.
