On the Go

Gloria went down for breakfast. A plate of scrambled eggs topped with parsley were steaming next to a piece of whole grain toast. Next to the plate was a small bowl of mixed fruit. The chef stood with hands behind his back waiting.

"Just the toast today," said Gloria as she grabbed the toast off of the plate.

"But miss," said the chef before Gloria shut him up with a stern gaze. He said nothing about her state of undress, thinking it was some sort of test to get him to say something inappropriate so she could threaten his job.

Gloria turned and walked to the garage where the driver was waiting. "Um, do you want something miss?" asked the driver, looking Gloria up and down and thinking she was not ready to go in her state of undress.

"Yes, moron, I want a ride, du-uh!" Gloria reached down and removed her shoes and socks then put her shoes back on and left the socks on the floor of the garage. Now all she wore was her underwear and shoes.

The driver opened the back door of the black Cadillac Escalade, and Gloria got in. She took out her phone and started texting her accountant whom she was about to meet.
