A Bomb

Aright so this dream is from a few nights ago, I just forgot to journal it:
1. I was at Kroger, working my shift. It was late. I had on my blue shirt and made sure it was tucked in and I also made sure I had my name tag. I went to my register and turned the register light on. The lights in the store were very dim, so I knew it was past 10 p.m because that's when we turn off half of the store lights. The store was almost dead; I saw barely any customers walking around. I also noticed that there were also about 5 or 6 other cashiers clocked in as well; which was odd because there was usually only one of us working the midnight shift.
I stood and waited for a customer to come to my line, but none came. All of my co-workers stood in vain too; no customers seemed to be coming at all. I finally went to my "smile zone"(which is the front end of my register where I smile and wait for customers) as required to go to if I had no customers. Immediately as I got to my smile zone I noticed an abandoned baby stroller flipped over on the frozen food aisle in front of me. "Holy shit that's not good" I say out loud. I then proceed to walk over to the stroller. I turn the stroller over and to my surprise there is a baby in it, but it is dead. "My God, what sick fucking lady did this?" I asked myself as I automatically presumed that a lady was the guardian of this child.
I suddenly became aware of a very quiet and barely noticeable noise. It was a ticking noise. I turn the baby over on its back and see a blinking red light. "Fuck, this is a bomb" I thought to myself as I tried to remain calm. I then got up off of my knees and ran to the PA speaker on my register. "Attention all customers, there is a bomb in the building, I repeat, there is a bomb in the building. Please remain calm and exit the store immediately" I said into the speaker. I could hear my voice echo throughout the entire store followed by a few ladies screaming in panic. "I need to get out of here now" I told myself, but then I remembered that the customers were more important. I ran around the entire store making sure that all customers were making their way out.
After the store seemed to be clear of customers I ran out as well. My heart was beating a million miles an hour knowing that the store could blow up in any second. I sprinted to my car and unlocked it and got in. I then started it up. Behind me I could hear police and firefighters as well as ambulances coming, and I could see their bright lights reflecting off of my rear view mirror. Just then, as I started backing up, the store blew up. A huge cloud of smoke and fire erupted from the now destroyed building. I floored it out of the area.
I'll be back to my normal recall later today. Gotta get some sleep for now.
