We got to the gas station, and the gas attendant was a total creep. But something about him glowed through his stringy gray hair and jumpsuit. Like he was going to be a big part of my life. Almost beautiful.

"may I help you?" he said in a straggly voice. And then he went for pinching my butt. I spazed out of the way.

He filled us up, and we were almost on our way until he stopped us.

"Ah it'll be 29.90."

"Hon, I don't think we have enough." Mom said.

"oh unless your daughter would like, you know." The man said.

"dad..." I whispered.

"we have enough, sir." My dad became uncomfortable.

So dad forked up the money and paid.

I shook off the creeped outness and we went to our cottage. But the re tailors sold it so my dad had an argument with the other one, but he lost so we had to blow more money on a crappy motel room.
