Hide

You dive under one of the picnic tables and let the table cloth hide your naked body as female voices draw nearer. Plates and silverware clatter above you and you see tanned legs and sandaled feet start to crowd you. Positioning yourself away from the women's feet, you hope nobody drops anything and sees you under the table. You just know the next thing would be screams and police and your arrest.

You overhear talk about playing cards later and you just know these women are going to be here all night. Bent legs start to tingle as your circulation is cut off being on your knees for so long. If you had to suddenly run away, you'd fall flat on your face. Someone has stinky feet you notice with your face so close their sandals.

After about an hour of eating and chatting, the women decide to go inside and play cards. First they have to bring all the plates inside. A lot of feet are moving through the grass and you hear them coming and going as their conversation fades in and out. The picnic table next to yours has the checkered table cloth pulled away and you're heart is to about to explode knowing your table it next. You're only hope is that since the sun had started to go down, it would still be too dark to spot you. Then what you knew would happen happened. The table cloth is pulled away and you can clearly see the bottom half of about two women and they make themselves busy folding up the table cloth and turn to go inside. He realize you've been holding your breath and finally let it out.

You see the women disappear into the house and you get out of their yard and try to head toward yout own house. Darkness is a comfort but the streetlights have started to come on, so you know you'll have to stay in the shadows. You crept along the house and make it to the side walk and squat near a series of cars parked almost bumper to bumper. You figure they belong to the ladies you just had a picnic with. Then the wind carries some voices headed your way. You jerk her head in that direction to see a couple of high school girls strolling in your direction, so you scoot under one of the cars and wait until they pass. But just as the girls were getting closer, a dog starts barking at you from the street side and is drawing a lot of unwanted attention. What are you going to do?
