Looking Good for My Age, Eh?

L

I got hit on the other day. In broad daylight.

I was just catching up on messages, chillin’ in the CBD House of Healing parking lot, when a young lady runs up to my car yelling:
“Do you have a ruh-ruh-ruh—”

I’m like, “HUH?”

She motions to, “Roll your window down!”

So I do…

She leans in and says, “Do you have a girlfriend?”

I pause, confused, then go, “Uh… yeah, I do.”

She looked disappointed, sighed, and just walked off.

Ma’am. You’re like… 21. WTF?

That was bold! Blew me away.

And just so y’all know—I’m from an era when ‘streaming’ meant a broken VCR.

So for the rest of the day, you couldn’t tell me NOTHIN’.

I was out here feelin’ like Idris Elba at a gas station… not in a rush, just letting the air smell like confidence and unleaded.
