Dude at the gas station in front of me was trying to cash a check.
“No we don’t do that here. Go to the bank.”
“When does the bank open? This is my ride home”
“10 am. It is 7:30 now”
That’s a long time to wait.
I followed him out. “What do you need?”
“Oh, I’m just trying to get home.”
“What do you need? Gas?” I didn’t know if he has a car or was riding the bus
“Yeah…”
I rummaged in my purse. I wanted to give him a five, but all I had was 20s. I gave him two ones.
” oh thank you! Let me give you my business card so you can hit me up.”
” oh that’s ok.”
He took my two dollars to the cashier to buy gas. Then I thought, oh that may have been him making a pass at me rather than him offering to repay the money
Or it could have been both.
Sometimes it’s hard to be a Good Samaritan in a dress. Still felt pretty good.
