A lovely lady came in. She didn’t move very
well and had a stick. She said she wanted to buy some scarves so we starting
looking at the scarves and discussing the options. I asked her whether she
preferred lacy edging or plain edging, and she told me she liked to be tied to
her bedposts using them.
Me: “…….OK...The lacy edging ones are pretty
but the plain edged ones come in more patterns.”
Her: “I have a husband and a lover, and I like
my lover to tie me up on the bed.”
Me: “Er….This one is nice, and it also comes in
cream. I mean blue. No, er, neutral. It comes in neutral!”
Her: “I like the feel of them on my arms and
legs and the sense that I can’t get away and anything could happen.”
Me: “……………Er….. Would you like to take both of
these?”
But she was off; in a little reverie about bondage
and scarves and extra-marital lovers. By the time she came round I’d rung up
the sales and was talking to another customer about dry lining her water tank. Bondage
girl paid for her things and walked away with a little wistful smile on her
face. I don’t want to think about what she was imagining.
