Girl Power

Pretend you are working at a philanthropy event in the evening. The party ends, you're a little buzzed and want to go out but no one else does. You go alone, to a hotel bar, knowing that you can pick up some lonely man. Said lonely man picks you up just as planned. Buys you the most expensive drinks on the menu. 40 something man then takes you in a cab, to go back to his place of coarse. Said 40 something man asks your age, and you lie, actually making yourself younger for kicks. Then about picking up condoms and you say there will be no need for those. He asks you if it bothers you if his son, who happens to actually be a year older then you (if he knew your real age), being home and awake will bother you. You say no and wonder if he's cute. You get to the apartment and make out. You confirm the son is in fact cuter then the father. You go to the bathroom for a breather. Things are spinning. After complete inspection of man's bathroom, you find curious feminine objects. Many things race through your head. The items are too personal and specific to be there for your benefit. No way they have them as a courtesy. As you leave the bathroom you feel like you have to know. You somehow get this inkling and ask, "Do you have a girlfriend?". "Yes". Your heart pumps faster and faster and you ask her name. Then you go back to the bathroom and rummage through your bag for a pen and paper. You quickly write this note, "Dear Shelly, you're boyfriend is cheating on you. This is the 20 year old he brought home. You need to know. <3 GirlPower!", and stick it into the lotion bottle hoping she will find it but beforehand you take a photo of it on your phone so you remember you did this in the morning. As you leave the bathroom you state that you are not feeling well and you have to go home and bolt out the door as he says bye to the fake name you gave him at the bar.
