"Okay. You can have whatever you want from the Sprint store. I'll be there a little later on once I get an errand done first."

Yagr nodded to his father and took off towards the nearby Sprint store. It was about time he was going to be getting a new phone. Everyone at school had been commenting on how old fashioned his current phone was. It was true that he couldn't check his email or watch youtube videos on his phone, let alone be able to access the internet with a speed like that of an old dial-up connection. Thankfully, his father's upgrade had come in, meaning he could get a new phone for a considerable discount. The problem was, he had no idea what phone he wanted.

The Sprint store was a quick five minute drive away and after conversing with a employee who thought Yagr was looking for recycle services when he showed the man his current phone, he went about browsing the current selection. An iPhone sounded like a good idea. So did the Samsung Galaxy and the HTC. He ignored the other phone-looking phones, such as the variety of Nextel walkie-talkies and the old fashioned flip phones and blackberries. Who uses a blackberry anyway? There's no key guard and he had had enough of butt dialing people.

After a short while, he decided on the Galaxy Note. The female sales rep grabbed the phone/mini-tablet and protective shell, and they started chatting while waiting for Yagr's father to show up. The rep was equally surprised to see how pristine a condition Yagr's current phone was in.

Yagr's father arrived shortly thereafter and after suggesting Yagr pick up a Bluetooth headset, they got to discussing if Yagr had everything.

"Okay, is there anything else you need?" Yagr's father asked taking out his wallet.

"Yes," Yagr said his eyes lighting up. "I'd like to purchase her."

"What?" the female employee said surprised.

"Yeah, I'd like to add her to my purchase," Yagr said.

"Okay. How much are you?" Yagr's father asked turning towards the employee.

"Wait. What? No. I'm not-" the employee stammered.

"Ten thousand?" Yagr said grinning.

"What? Twenty, but-"

"Twenty. There," Yagr said slapping his father's shoulder.

"But you can't buy me," the employee protested.

"Ah, but you see this guy said I could get anything I wanted," Yagr explained.

"He's got a point," Yagr's father said handing the woman his credit card. "I did say that."

"Bu-but," the woman swiped the card. "How do you have that high of a credit limit? And more importantly why did I enter that into the system?"

"I'll pick you up later on," Yagr said winking at the woman.

The woman watched as the customers left. "Why does that happen all the time?"

@Allicrombie What? You don't have an iPhone? I'm reporting this lack of slavish devotion.

 @verbtex  I have a Macbook Pro.  If that isn't devotion, I dunno what is.
