We were walking to the car:
Susie Seller: Do you have kids?!
Me: (I just ignore her)
Susie Seller: Do you have Kids?!
Me: (continue to ignore)
Susie Seller: Do you have kids?!
Me: I don't have kids.
Susie Seller: well I am selling stuff for kids outside my car!
Me: I don't have kids. I don't need anything.
Susie Seller: well I have woman stuff too!
Me: No thanks I don't need anything.
We then try to get in the as fast as we can but before I can even get my door shut this girl walks up and corners me. She looked like she was maybe 18-20 years old, rail thin, her makeup looks like she was high when she put it on.
Crystal Meth: Do you speak English?
Me: Yes. (I'm thinking maybe she is going to ask me directions or something)
Crystal Meth: oh good. Everyone else has been telling me they don't speak English. (dramatic pause as she kneals down next to me) I don't normally look like this. It's just that I got in a fight with my boyfriend. It's a bad relationship obviously. I have a place to stay for the next 2 nights but after that I don't know where I am going to go. (dramatic pause) And all I need is 23 dollars. (dramatic pause) It's just, I didn't know that hotel rooms cost more on the weekends and I'm not a bum I promise. I'm not a druggy. And I have a job but it doesn't start until next week.
Me: uh huh (by the look on my face I think she can tell I am not believing her)
Crystal Meth: And my mom died last week so that's why I'm here. I wasn't expecting to be here. (long dramatic pause) This is the hardest I have had to beg for 20 dollars in my life. (Dramatic pause).
Me: Well I'll tell you what I can do. I have a couple of dollars but that's all I have. ( I pulled $2 out of my purse) okay. Good luck.
Crystal Meth: (just stands there and gives me this look like 'are you serious, that's all I got out of that.)
So I shut the door real fast and lock it. She continues to stand there like I am going to change my mind and open my door. So I just start to back up and she slowly moves. Best 2 dollars I ever spent!
