It was a close knit little company and I was the accounting manager for a few years. I hired Kristy as a bookkeeper shortly before I landed a job with the megacorp that I've been with 35 years. I called over there to say hello to some old friends after several months and Kristy got on the line. "You know Ray now that I don't work for you we can date..." No doubt about it Kristy was a looker but I did remember something about a boyfriend... "so I didn't you have a boyfriend or something?" "He's out of the picture"
I picked her up and noted she sure was dolled up - the conversation flowed easily during the meal at a seafood joint and later on a stroll by the water. I drove her home and she said "park there and we can talk. " I'm thinking there will be smooching. We chatted a few minutes when in the distance two head lights appear she gazes into the distance and says "Oh My God it's my boyfriend" my computer like intellect processes that phrase, that will live in infamy, and I say to myself - Oh My God indeed and why do these things happen to me?
The mouse under my left eye really wasn't that bad. (I must admit to remembering my jaw was a little sore) at least my father and brother had a good belly laugh. What really bothered me is the notion is that it was likely a setup from the get go... the confrontation a notification to the boyfriend - I am a desirable women or maybe just god knows.
What I am sure of is I had no desire to end a lovely evening in fisticuffs, being called a bunch of nasty names or participating in a very uncivilized scene with neighbors and the police. Funny, I am not even sure his heart was in it because I only hit him once and he went down.
Yes like I said there are times when I thought God was having fun with me.
