The Subway Chick

Let's begin.

For the past year, I have been going to a particular Subway Sandwich Shop here in town. Once a week.

I eat there for a few reasons, I likes me a good sub, it's close to home, and there is a nice looking redhead there.

Now, the redhead has been working there for several months now and it's gotten to the point where she knows my order by heart (I always get the same thing).

And we always have a little flirtatious back and forth, little comments here and there, smiles..the usual.

Well, that all ended last week.

Monday, at my work, things were going along as they usually do.

Two customers walk in.

The redhead and a guy.

The cashier takes their order and I make it. During this time, the redhead notices me. She she's that I spotted her and turns away.

After the whole thing is complete, I call the cashier over to me.

I say, "Let me ask you something, that redhead that just came in with that guy, did you get a boyfriend/girlfriend vibe off of them?"

The cashier chuckles and then informs me that he knew them and the have been with each other for 2 years.



I was furious, to say the least.


Yesterday.

I drive by Subway and see her car's in the parking lot. I pull in.

I'm in full wardrobe for these cold months... black leather trench coat, black leather gloves, and my trademark sunglasses.

I go in.

The usual woman is at the front of their food line. 3 people are on their little food line. 2 of them I have never seen before. The redhead is at the end of the line at the register.

I have them make my food and I get to the end.

This time, the redhead is hardly making eye contact. She has a fake smile on.

She tells me my total and I hand her my card.

She hands it back to me and says, "Here you go, sir."


When she said this, I literally took a step back, in total shock.

This was a first. SIR. I have never been so outraged.

I took my sub, and instead of going home like I usually do, I took it to a table and sat down.

I unwrapped it and began to eat. Never taking my eyes off the redhead the whole time.

And she knew I was looking at her. She would glance at me and whisper into the other worker's ears.

The whole time I just ate and stared.

My mind was racing, first over the sir thing. Here wee were, having a great rapport, then this indifferent, anonymous, and insulting SIR pops out.

Why?

Because I knew her dirty little secret now, that's why.

Her teasing ways, her little mind games, leading me on like some cruel pet owner toying with their pet by making them chase the light from a laser pointer.

After I finished my sub, I sat there, staring, for another good 4 or 5 minutes.

I had to get my revenge. I tried so hard to plot something out.

There was only rage.

I looked around the restaurant..there was only me and the employees.

I put on my gloves and I got up from the table.

I shouted at the top of my lungs, "Everybody on the fucking floor right now!"

The three of them just stood there, stunned.

I shouted, "You think I'm fucking joking? Get down now!"

The got down.

I walked behind the counter.

One of them, a blond said, "We can't open the safe."

I said, "I'm not here for money. I'm here for something else."

I walked over to the redhead and told her to face me.

She turned around, tears streaming down her face..trembling.

I leaned down, and got right into her face, our noses almost touching, and I said, "How do you like my games, you bitch?"

I turned around and left.





I don't think I'll be eating there again.
