9. No Tip From Her

My first ride of the night was a young woman I was taking home. It was the week that the high schools were going back into session and as she got out,  I asked her if she was ready to go back to classes tomorrow.

 

She laughed and said, “Uhm, I’m 35 years old…”

 

I apologized profusely and told her I meant no offense.

 

I watched her laugh all the way to her front door.

 

I imagined I would be getting no tip from her.


And I didn't.
