As Stella and I continued to chat and occasionally flirt today, she threw me for a loop. Stella was having a bad day at the office and getting the shitty end of the stick. I could tell she was fed up and didn't want to be bothered today.
Stella takes lunch at the same time every day, but this day was different. She took lunch 45 minutes later than normal. I figured she was probably catching up on work. I normally take my lunch when she gets back.
As I was heading to the gym, I got a message from Stella stating, "I'm at Walmart, can you help me put something in my car?"
Since I could never say no to this woman, I went straight there.
Once I got to Walmart, I asked: "Where are you at?"
She replied, "In the back of the parking lot."
I drove back there to see her with a red face like she's been crying. I jumped out of my truck and got in her passenger seat. She vented and told me what was going on and how she feels as if everyone at the office hates her. I consulted and hugged her.
She stated, "You're always here for me."
I stated, "You'll always have me."
Then she said, "I'm running low on fuel, do you mind if we sit in your truck and talk?"
I said, "Sure."
As she got out of her car, she went straight to the back seat of my truck.
Stella stated, "It's roomier back here."
I looked puzzled but agreed. I started the truck and got in the back with Stella.
She asked, "Can we not talked and just sit here for a while as I gathered my thoughts."
I agreed and grabbed her hand and held it tightly.
Stella then said, "I like your truck, the tint is dark. No one could see anything in here."
