1. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Nugget Markets with a truckload of fresh produce. As he unloaded crates of apples, he noticed something peculiar—each apple seemed to have a tiny smiley face carved into it. Curious, he picked one up and saw that each smiley had a different expression—some were laughing, others winking. Smiling to himself, he decided to keep one as a souvenir. Months later, while unpacking groceries, his wife exclaimed, ‘Hey, where did you get that smiling apple from?’ To which he replied, grinning sheepishly, ‘Oh, just some guy who delivered apples to Nugget Markets.’

The driver looked around but saw no one. Then she said again, louder, ‘Bananas don’t grow on trees!’ The driver jumped and nearly dropped another banana. Turning back, he scanned the empty lot once more—then heard her voice, softer now, almost wistfully: 'You’re welcome.' From then on, whenever anyone asked why there were always extra bananas at Nugget Markets, everyone just smiled and said, 'Ask the old lady who doesn’t believe in tree-grown fruit.'

And sure enough, moments later, there was a loud thud and a muffled curse from inside the store. The next morning, everyone in town knew why bananas were suddenly so expensive.

The next morning, everyone in town was talking about the banana dance that only she could see.
