Housewife Gone Wild

The middle–aged man gave me a sleazy grin and said, “Hey, pretty lady, I know you didn’t do it on purpose, but this thermos really matters to me. It was my mom’s.”

“How much do you want? I’ll pay,” I said, not wanting to get into it with him.

The man was about to answer when Ryan walked right over. Ryan said, “How much? I’ll pay.”

The man had been trying to take advantage of me being alone, but seeing more people around, he backed off fast. He said, “Just 100 dollars. Guess it’s my unlucky day.”

dollars. He said, “That’s the most it’s worth.”
