The Dirty Old Man
based on a true story
One day, on her way to volunteering, Heather noticed a very old man get out of the car and begin walking toward the hospital. He said something to his younger friend that had given him a ride to his doctor's visit. Heather, assuming that the comment did not involve her, thought nothing of their interaction and kept walking toward the hospital's front entrance.
"Are you going in this door, miss?" The old man said.
"What?" Heather replied
His friend stepped in to clarify, "He wanted me to hold the door for you."
"Oh! How thoughtful...but I am not going in this door," Heather said.
"You're not huh? Well ok then," the old man said with a grin.
"No, I am going in the front door over there, but thank you so much for the thought. I really appreciate it!"
Heather smiled and thought about what a sweet old man this was standing in front of her. It seemed that there were just not enough people like him in the world.
"You have a nice day sir!" Heather said as she turned to walk away.
The old man stopped her, "You want to know something?"
"What is that?" Heather asked him.
"I like to watch you walk," the dirty old man said with a devious grin.
Shocked by the comment, Heather's only reply was a nervous laugh and she quickly walked toward the hospital. Eeww!
The End.
