I'm in the parking lot of Canadian Tire because one of my spark plugs is fouled and my engine is totally mis-firing. anyways, I'm going through the tools in my trunk trying to see if I still have a spark plug socket or if I'm going to have to buy a new one.
"Excuse me."
This girl is standing there and she looks vaguely familiar. she introduces herself, says she recognizes me and starts making small talk. She's certainly not ugly, but when I asked her how it was going she said "look at my face. Not well" I don't know what she was getting at, I couldn't see anything. Maybe there's a bruise? Whatever.
I should explain that this is in what used to be previously a nice neighborhood which in the last 5 years or so has really decayed. Right away I pretty much know exactly what she's getting at. So, as she's telling me the story of "what happened" I just opened up my wallet, give her the $30 in there and was just like "take it".
And then she offered sex like three times through the universal medium of "are you sure you don't want to go and..." as she makes signals with her hands. She gave me a hug and walked away.
And then I figured out where I knew her from. High school. She graduated like two years before I did and was friends with a buddy's older brother. Kind of sad.
