Caught
I had just gotten off a double at VTs. The smell of sweet and garlic and followed me all the way home. Thank God it was a Thursday, Lady’s girl’s night out night. That meant no awkward, unfulfilled foreplay, no conversation, just sleep. I disrobed, admired my profile, penis, and went over the bedside table ready to put on a little night cap on. No, I wasn’t pouring myself a cognac to easy my trip to dreamland; I was reaching for a condom so that I could sleep soundly without worrying about soiling the sheets with another wet dream. Opening the drawer and reaching inside the industrial sized box of condoms, I touched not greasy foil, but a quarter folded sheet of office paper. When opening the crudely created card, I was greeted with 2 haunting words, ‘I know.’
“I know.” What the fuck could she know? Besides rudimentary survival skills, I’m more or less convinced that Lady is brain dead or is and has been suffering from post-concussion syndrome that only Trent Green could relate to for the entirety of our relationship. Nonetheless, she knows something, something that she feels necessary to transcribe in crayon. What could be so important to warrant crayon? Personally, I would just shout the information at increasing decibels until everyone within earshot was aware of my knowledge, but crayon, never crayon.
I told her that I didn’t actually graduate, so there would be no need to re-emphasize that. She knows that I work at the Italian equivalent of McDonalds, so that would be no surprise. Michael? The thought races through my mind, as a cool sweat forms on my brow, could she know Michael? The fear dies down and an awesome wave of relaxation takes over: no one knows Michael. Ha.
I needed an expert opinion. Not know any, I called Brian.
