My 33 Humiliations
Benedict looked at me, his tone as matter-of-fact as ever.
“Get a ride home. I need to send Anna back to her place.”
I lowered my eyes and remained silent.
Benedict had a severe obsession with cleanliness and never allowed any lingering scents in his car.
Once, because of his stubborn temperament, he had offended a client.
I nearly drank myself to death just to apologize on his behalf.
Yet afterward, he frowned at me with open disgust and said, “You reek. Figure out your own way back.”
That day, he abandoned me alone in the snow-covered outskirts of the city.
