All Against One
"Do you think these things matter to me? I'll say it one last time. Get out. If you don't, I'll call the cops and report you for trespassing. My groom has connections, and he's on my side. Just wait until the cops get here."
I watched her call the police.
Before the call connected, I turned and walked away.
I didn't take any of the gifts with me.
But I hadn't gone far when they were thrown out like trash.
"Filthy things, filthy person," she shouted. "Take everything you touched and get out of here."
I picked the gifts back up.
In the end, no one really held a grudge against money.
I had taken a day off and booked a flight. I'd already lost enough financially.
