AN EMBARASING SITUATION

Eating ice-cream without bringing money to pay

Have you ever had an embarasing siutuation? I have had moments of shame when I ate ice-cream without bringing money to pay. The story happened not long ago.

They were delicious and fresh. After feeling comfortable and well againm we wanted to go shopping. I was paying off but then I realized that I didn’t bring the money and neither was my friend. I was shy and awkward whenthe waitress asked who would pay. Then I said to her that we didn’t take money. We were worried and thought that she called for the police.
