After getting a little pre-planning in on the cbox, Sylvan got up and dressed - giving himself a wink in his mirror before grabbing his backpack, leaving the apartment swiftly. He caught the bus uptown just in time and got off a few minutes early to grab some brews. He'd been to Hallie' s a couple of times so far, so he played with his route a little to find a corner store he hadn't hit up yet. Though he needed a pack of smokes, he'd just wait till he got closer to her place. It was better to keep face at the store closest to her anyway, since there'd be times where he'd need to grab some quick necessities and no doubt the place wouldn't condone his universal five-finger discount more than once... especially when it came to larger quantities of beer.
Syl kept cool, turning his head away from the cashier and face down from the cameras when he stepped in, strolling to the back right away. The out-of-shape cashier was dealing with a customer, reaching overhead to pull down a few packs of cigarettes - so Syl acted fast. He grabbed his go-to beer run brand, Coors. The way the 12 pack was packaged made for quick grab and dash like no other kind, the stubby bottles didn't clink together either since each of them were in their own cubby of corrugated cardboard. Plus it was light weight so he could easily run off with it when and if he had to.
With one hand, Syl carried it from the back - casually looking over the items before glancing at the cashier who was making change out of a fifty, strolling out the door and hearing no calls behind for him to stop. Just in case though, Syl veered behind the store and down the alley - stopping to slip the case in his back pack before continuing on his merry way to Hallie's, feeling all sorts of proud of himself.
He lit up the third to last of his cigs as a little victory celebration, puffing on it as he strolled and finishing it up right as he got to the gas station next to Hallie's apartment complex - purchasing a 6 pack for good measure and carrying it with him. He was back outside in under five minutes, already up the stairs and at her door under ten. He knew he'd make good time. Smirking to himself, he knocked a rhythm on her door- opting to actually use the proper entrance instead of climbing up to her balcony as he'd done before.
