Hiker's Island

Story Sent in by Laurie:

Eddie took me out to a nearby island for a hike. It was nice to be out with him on a beautiful day and we made good progress. Then as time went on I noticed that he started walking a few steps ahead of me. And after a little while, a few steps further.

At first I thought it was by accident and I hurried up to keep pace with him. We stayed like that for about a minute before he breezed ahead again.

When I finally opened my mouth to say, "Are we in a race?" he looked back at me, screamed as if he didn't expect anyone to be right there, and bolted off, further and faster ahead than I was willing to go.

Sure, I called after him but he didn't stop and was lost to sight.

When I returned to the parking lot I found him there leaning against his car with a big smile. He asked me, "How was your hike?"

I told him, "Great, thanks. See you," and I drove away.

  5. The scream part just adds insult to insult as does waiting around. If you are going to ditch dates in a rude way, just drive off once you get back to the car, don't hang around.
