Greg stood a little dumbfounded for another minute or so before someone grabbed his arm, or rather, two someones.
“Come on, Keiko, cars are boring! Let’s do some shopping,” One of the women now grabbing him said.
“You can’t blame Keiko too much,” The other woman said, “Her husband is so rich that he can probably afford to buy her a car once a week! Speaking of which, drinks at the club tonight are on you!”
The two women laughed as they dragged Greg out. They went to all sorts of malls and stores. Greg couldn’t keep up with all their gossiping, and he didn’t buy a thing. They continued out for dinner and finally arrived at the club. Greg felt so awkward, like a fish out of water. And his discomfort was clearly showing.
“What is wrong with Keiko today?” Greg overheard one of the women saying, “She’s usually so much fun, but today she is being a total stick in the mud.”
“Maybe she’s just having a bad day.” Greg felt a warm feeling hearing the second woman coming to his defense. “Maybe her husband lost a ton in the market yesterday.”
Greg’s heart sank a little. It was the second time these women had mentioned that his new body had a husband. He wasn’t looking forward to going home and meeting him!
