Break Down
The day had not gone as planned. The gas gauge was broken, and I was out of gas. No where near the rendezvous point, I sat in the van searching for a bar or two on my phone to call for rescue. He’d find the situation funny, he’d have a great, hearty laugh at my expense, then he’d rescue me.
“Sit outside the van, on the road. I’ll come to you.” he instructed after his laughter relented, remotely.
“Outside?” I clarified, certain he didn’t really mean for me to sit out on the open road in my condition.
“Yes, sit outside, and wait for me. Did you bring the foot gear I asked for my trip next week?
“Yes, of course I did-”
“Good.” I heard his evil grin take form. “Put them on. I’d hate for your feet to be unprotected. I’m on my way.” he hung up before any objection could take place.
I looked down the road, I hadn’t seen a car in twenty minutes. It was probably safe. I hopped out of the van, the sun warming my naked body. I sat against the van, legs stretched out in front of me, and the hot asphalt beneath me. I looked absurd with his swimming gear on my feet. I watched for him with my binoculars, hoping that no one would see fit to use the road until I was safely tucked inside his truck.
I wondered if I was arrested for public nudity, would they make me take off my rubber fins?
Was feeling playful this week and rebellious… went over the 210 allowed words. Thanks for checking in and if you’d like to play along head over here to view the rules. If you want to read some really great work head over here to read the other entries this week.
As always thanks to Advizor for hosting and if anyone would like to join in but doesn’t have blog or website, please shoot me a msg I’d be happy to let you post your work here.
Lol! Great take on the pic.
I can't imagine arresting a nice young lady in this predicament. Perhaps a small fine or favor could be paid instead. But, if she does got to jail, keep those fins! Jail cell floors are nasty. A fun take on the picture!! Love having you on board.
