Stored inside a Store

On the edge of a hill stands a supermarket. It’s hidden near a wood yet it serves a vast populace with only one entrance and exit. Even to the staff, it’s a fortress to gain entrance. There was once a common policy to have the gate open during all trading hours; but ever since the pandemic was put into place; their security was also raised. Nowadays you have to push a button and wait to be admitted. If you’re lucky, the delivery staff will see you and let you in. If not, you must wait it out. And even when you are admitted, there’s a strict debate of where you can and can’t go; and there’s also the question of who will attend you and when. It’s a very strange policy because if you deliver to one of the smaller stores; they generally welcome you to wander where you like.
