267. The Other Night

The other night I met a girl the worse for drink wearing a torn dress of white and pink staggering around all over the place her makeup smudged all over her face I walked with her and helped her home didn't want her to be alone when we got there she invited me in ' I've got food' she said with a tiny grin I accepted her offer and closed the door as she almost passed out upon the floor I held her up gently gently said 'I think it is time you went to bed' When we got to her room it was a mess to be honest at the time I couldn't have cared less she pulled her dress up over her head and slowly climbed into her bed Before she closed her eyes she said 'thanks for helping me to bed I'll sleep through any noise you make you can do what you wish until I wake' I thought a moment about my wishes then went to the kitchen and washed her dishes not complaining that there was a lot putting them away in their rightful spot I fed her little black cat a bowl of tuna fish and changed the water in his dish he didn't care who I could be I had food so he was pleased to see me I picked up the dress and sewed up the tears as if they had never even been there though it took most of the night I was done as it was getting light She woke up to breakfast in bed with anti hangover pills for her head bacon eggs beans toast and tea all carefully made and served by me I wonder if she ever thinks about just what happened while her light was out I guess she never really thought it through but I never took advantage would you
