In a town not too far from mine, something truly bananas happened that left people in fits of uncontrollable laughter. It all began when a mischievous monkey named Marvin decided to embark on an adventure which he assumed to be worth written in historical books.
Marvin, a rambunctious rhesus, first in his family with a likeness for practical jokes, had been observing humans closely and mimicking almost every characteristic of humans. He noticed their obsession with a particular fruit; the banana. Determined to join in on the fun, he hatched a plan so absurd that It could only result in hilarity.
Step one of Marvin's plan was to gain access to the local grocery store. His siblings prepared him by helping him undertake some thorough and careful training in stealth and camouflage. In no time, Marvin mastered the skill and he was ready to go on his mission.
"I'd be waiting to hear how badly you'd be thrown out of the store when you're eventually caught," his little sister mocked.
"Don't you dare touch her you mischief" his mother yelled as she stood in the way hindering him from hitting his sister. "I'll get you" he said to her as he walked away, and she laughed hysterically like a hyena at him. This annoyed Marvin so much but his sister was of little importance to him at that point.
The sun was just coming out in the sky and shops were just opening. Marvin waited patiently for the grocery store to open and a few minutes after the store was declared open, he slipped into the store, unnoticed by both employees and the few customers that had arrived.
Now that he was in, step two of Marvin's plan involved a daring wardrobe change. Marvin knew he had to blend in to avoid suspicion. So, he donned a miniature employee uniform he stole from the janitor's closet. He pulled out the name tag he had crafted for himself and stuck it to the uniform. With a mop in hand and a nametag that read "Maurice the Mop Monkey," he looked the part, or so he thought.
Now disguised as an employee, a small one, Marvin decided to turn his attention to the bananas. He sneaked into the produce section and started rearranging them. Bananas that were once neatly arranged in bunches were now scattered across the shelves. He even went as far as drawing tiny faces on some of them, giving them distinct hilarious personalities.
As shoppers noticed the chaotic display, they couldn't help but chuckle at the absurdity of the situation. Marvin, hiding behind a pyramid of watermelons, watched with glee as customers laughed. He grabbed a phone from a customer's pocket and snapped photos, which he quickly shared to the customer's social media account. He had learnt a lot about humans indeed.
But Marvin wasn't satisfied with just rearranging fruit. No, he had a shocking grand finale in mind. He scurried over to the store's intercom system, after he had managed to get the employees out as they were checking out what caused the commotion in the store. He had observed the employees using it and decided to try. With a mischievous grin, he pressed the button and cleared his throat.
"In aisle four, we have a special for y'all on...bananas!" He declared over the intercom, imitating the nice tone of the store's manager. "Buy one banana, get one free! Wait, there's more! If you slip and fall while reaching for a banana, you get a complimentary bunch of grapes!"
The customers, now in hysterics, couldn't believe their ears. The voice was weird and funny. Some began purposely sliding around the store, while others danced in the produce section, using bananas as makeshift maracas. "Humans love free things" Marvin laughed as he walked out of the store leaving the manager to handle the rest.
The store's employees, who were initially baffled by the commotion, eventually joined in on the fun. They formed a conga line, chanting, "Go bananas! Go bananas!" as they danced through the aisles.
Marvin's mission had achieved the impossible, he turned a mundane trip to the grocery store into a side splitting spectacle.
The manager with a huge megaphone in his hand emerged in between the crowd, yelled; "this should stop now". The employees scampered to their duty posts whispering amongst themselves as they tried to figure out who pulled such a stunt on them if it wasn't the manager.
Marvin felt fulfilled as he bounced home with a bunch of stolen banana as proof of his wondrous works.
Marvin is so smart, and it paid off well.
