Short
and Not so Sweet Stories: Part V
Rhinestones
Wow it’s getting a little depressing with not having
anything fun currently. I am hoping that the crazies pick up soon so I have
more stories to write for you all. But, tonight, as promised I DO have a story
for you!!!I wrote this back when the pink computer was still alive and things
were fun. I don’t know how this one slipped and hasn’t been posted yet…Better
late than never, right? I hope you enjoy this fun-filled entry starting right
now……
I know I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again because
it’s becoming true, every time I have the pink computer in my lap and I am
working on a story for the blog something crazy happens and I have to start a
new story all over again. Like today, I’ve written 3 stories back-to-back
because each time I start one another good event happens. Whew! I’m just glad
to have something to write about again, how about you guys? Anyway! I was
writing when the Love Lips door jingled and I quickly folded up the computer
and stood up to smile at the older woman who came into the store. She had to be
in her late 50’s and had the coolest eye make-up ever. It was green with gold that
blended nicely in the middle of her eye lid and then another completely
different shade of color above. I LOVE layering my eye shadow so she was a
welcomed eye shadow idea. “If I can help you with anything, let me know” I
smiled at her.
“Thanks hon” She smiled and then focused her attention to
the lingerie section and mainly looked through the panties that were hanging
up. After a long pause in which she looked closely at a pair in undies with
little rhinestone hearts on it she came up to the glass and said, “Hey hon—oh,
can yo hear me?”
This is a common question and sometimes a good question. You
don’t realize just how quite people talk until you’re behind glass. “Yes ma’am”
“Oh good.” She smiled and then said, “Are these all the
panties you have?”
“Yes ma’am they are”
“Oh...” She said more to herself and then said a little
louder, “Oh…well that’s not good”
“Ma’am?” I said confused.
“Ya see my husband came in here during Valentine’s Day and
claims to have gotten me a pair of panties from this location. I’m sure you’ve
seen him in here before”
I got scared thinking she was going to drill me into
remembering one man of the MANY I rang up for thongs and lingerie during the
Valentine’s week cuz there was NO WAY I was going to remember. But she said,
“At least he swears he came to this
very location and got me a thong with rhinestones on it.”
I just blinked and nodded, what else was I supposed to say?
“I know he’s lyin’ though because the thong is missing rhinestones on it and it had lint on it like it had been
washed” She said in a suspicious tone. “So they must be used. It just means
he’s runnin’ around on me again” She sighed.
“I’m sorry…” I felt really bad for her, no one should be
lied to.
“Yeah I mean he thinks he’s gotten away with it this time.
Cuz you know this isn’t the first time this has happened to me. But the lint
just proves it” She said solemnly.
I kinda wanted to point out that it was probably a good idea
he washed them but she seemed set in her thinking and said before I could
speak, “Well, have a good day hon”
“You too……” I said a little at a loss for words.
I dunno about you guys but I would hope if my wife bought me
panties that were hanging up and not packaged, she would wash them before I
wore them because people touch everything and you dunno where those fingers
have been…Also, if you’re wondering if your man is cheating on you, the lint
proves everything! Who knew?
