"Grab a load of t-shirts and shorts and a load of delicates." Jackie was calling late on Friday night. I'm wasn't sure why I should take my laundry over to her house, I have a perfectly good, and new, washer and dryer. Top end LG. But I was intrigued.
"I'll pick you up in ten. And wear a t and some shorts. And nice undies," she said.
Ten minutes later, she was in the driveway in her convertible.
"What's up?" I asked.
"Just a little trip," she answered. "And a little barrier pushing."
Okay, I thought. This should be "interesting."
We drove out of town a little, to a combo convenience store and laundromat.
"What are we doing here?"
"You'll see," was all I got back.
We went into the laundromat. There was an open doorway between the laundromat side and the store. I could see the cashier, a young lady of maybe mid 20s. She looked up for a second, and then back at her TV show, maybe Leno or Letterman, I couldn't tell.
"Action time." Jackie announced. "Sort your laundry into two washers."
So I did. One for my cottons, the other for my underwear.
"Now the rest," Jackie announced. Of course, that was her plan. She stripped off her t-shirt, then her shorts, and popped them into one washer.
"What the hell." I thought, and proceeded to do likewise. I unhooked my bra and tossed it in my other washer, then slid my panties down my legs and threw them in. I looked at Jackie and she was smiling, still in her underwear. She then followed my lead. We added the detergent and started the washers. Three dollars for a load! Man, had things gone up since I last had to use one of these things.
Jackie then picked up a paper and started reading, her body pretty much blocked from the clerk's view.
I did the same, squirming a little as I sat down in the cold plastic chair. I was also a little scared. We were pretty much stuck here for an hour.
About twenty minutes later, Jackie announced "I'm thirsty. Want a Coke?"
I looked at her, startled.
