"OH I FEEL... JUST... TERRIBLE!!!" SAID MY CUB
"SHIT! WHAT HAPPENNED?" I ASKED.
"LOOK. I WENT TO BUY CIGARS NEXT MY HOME. YOU KNOW THE LADY THAT OWNS THE STORE CANNOT BE THERE ALL DAY, CAUSE SHE SELLS BEER AND SHE STAYS THERE UP LATE. SO SHE OPENS THE STORE IN THE AFTERNOON. SO IF I WANT TO BUY CIGARS EARLIER, I HAVE TO WALK TWO BLOCKS FURTHER..."
"WHERE IS THIS CONVERSATION GOING?"
"LOOK. THE LADY GOT STOLEN SO SHE PUT RAILINGS ALL OVER THE PLACE AND NOW THE STORE LOOKS LIKE A JAIL CELL"
"REALLY?"
"WHEN I FIRST SAW THAT I TRIED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENNED BUT AS THE EXPERIENCE WAS NOT GOOD FOR HER, SHE WOULD NOT TELL SO I STOPPED TRYING TO KNOW. YOU KNOW, SHE CAN PUT RAILINGS IF SHE WANTS, IT'S HER CHOICE, I RESPECT THAT"
"SO WHAT'S SO TEEERRIIIBLEEE???"
"WELL. I WENT TO BUY CIGARS AND THERE WAS AN OLD WOMAN TALKING TO THE STORE OWNER. AND BY HOW THEY WERE TALKING, THE STORE OWNER DID TELL THE OLD WOMAN WHAT HAPPENNED. SO..."
"CUB... YOU FEEL FINE???"
"NOPE. LOOK. THE STORE OWNER SELLS THINGS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN NORMAL. NOT VERY, BUT THAT'S WHY I JUST BUY CIGARS THERE, AS CIGARS HAVE A STANDARD PRICE. BUT SHE IS NOT LIKE THE ASS. I THINK SHE HAS REASONS TO SELL MORE EXPENSIVE, SO, I HAVE NO TROUBLE WITH THAT. BUT... SHE WAS CLEARLY FOLLOWING THE FLOW WITH THE OLD WOMAN AS SHE WAS A CLIENT. SHE IS NOT LIKE THE ASS, I'M SURE ABOUT IT"
"FOLLOWING WHAT FLOW?"
"LOOK. THE OLD WOMAN, THE CLIENT, HEARD THE STORY OF WHAT HAPPENNED. AND SHE WAS SAYING THAT ALL THIEVES SHOULD BE KILLED"
"WHAT???"
"AND SHE SAID THAT IT WAS EXPENSIVE TO KEEP A PERSON IN PRISON AND ALL CITIZENS WERE PAYING FOR THE PRISON "HOTEL" WITH THE TAXES AND... "
"WHAT THE HELL"
"IMPLYING IT WAS HER AND "OWR MONEY" AND SHE SAID "YOU KNOW, I WENT TO SAUDI ARABIA AND THERE, A THIEF WHO STEALS FOR FIRST TIME GETS TWO FINGERS CUT IN FRONT OF EVERYONE. IF HE STEALS AGAIN, THEY CUT HIS HAND. WE SHOULD DO JUST THE SAME. SAUDI ARABIA IS SO SAFE THAT JEWEL STORES ARE OPEN IN THE STREET, THE SAME WITH EXPENSIVE WATCHES AND ALL"
"REALLY???"
"AND THE STORE OWNER WAS LIKE "YEAH, SURE, TAKE YOUR GOODS ANG PLEASE GO AWAY", THAT HAPPENNED"
"SO YOU DON'T FEEL GOOD"
"NOPE. I NEED A CHOCOLATE OVERDOSE!!!"
"YOU ARE KIDDING, RIGHT?"
"LOOK, THAT OLD WOMAN CAN HAVE A WC IN THE HEAD IF SHE WANTS, RIGHT? BUT HOW CAN SHE TALK LIKE THAT??? SHE CLEARLY IS NOT AWARE OF THE IMAGE SHE PROJECTS TO OTHERS. I GOT SO SHOCKED!!!"
"WELL THIS HAS SHAKEN... ME!!!"
"I DUNNO, I TOOK MY CIGARS AND RAN AWAY FROM THE PLACE"
"TELL ME. THAT IS ONE OF THE OLD LADIES THAT KICKED OUT YOUR CENOBYTE NEIGHBOURS FROM YOUR NEIGHBOURHOOD???"
"YEAH!!!"
