Punishment

"Oh Martinez I'm sorry. You have to believe me that I was on my way to you when Maria stopped me and told me that your mom was looing for me so I went to find her and your brother and sister and I guess I just lost track of time being swept up in conversation and I guess I just forgot. I'm sorry." I said nervously twisting my hands.

"So while I was waiting for you outside in the cold you were being 'swept up' in conversation? I Bet you had a good time huh? So tell me Miss Rodriquez, did any of my 'old time friends take you home?"

I blinked offended by his question, and all the nerves seemed to have vanished being replaced by anger, "excuse me sir, but I'm not sure if I understand the question? Are you assuming that I am that lose to sleep with the first guy that I see? With all due respect sir, whomever I bring into my bed is none of your business, now if you will excuse me I'm going to go to my office and pretend to be busy."
