Cabernet Problems Pt.3
The glossy, black door opened, and Savannah stepped into his car. Her naked legs slithered across the seats. She could smell the new leather and assumed it was expensive. Pulling the seat belt over her shoulder, the buckle clicked. Holding the silence by opening a stick of mint gum, she granted the piece to burst in her mouth. The pleasantness broke out into a fresh mint flavor.

Cabernet Problems Pt. 2
The air was still for a minute while Savannah stood there in disbelief. Travis’ smile was unchanging. The light reflected off his perfect, white teeth. The perfume scent lingered in the air, Aubree’s tea party babbles were hushed in the background, and everything seemed the same. But At that moment, Savannah knew everything was different.

Cabernet Problems
With dishwashing soap in her left hand and white vinegar in her other, Savannah cowered down to the carpet and began to pour. She continued pouring and scrubbing, scrubbing and pouring for several minutes, pinching her nose and coughing at the pungent stench in the air. Mr. Mauer was going to throw a fit when he saw this mess, and she could not afford to lose this job. All she wanted to do was relax a bit, but when she heard rustling outside, she writhed and knocked over the bottle in her startle. She’d had experience with wine spills before, but never a stain like this, and NEVER on her boss’s carpet. This wasn’t her regular bottle of seven dollar Merlot, this was Opus One, 2017 Cabernet (whatever that meant). The bottle had settled without making a sound, but the sinister, crimson liquid spread across the floor as if it were trying to escape. The hint of licorice and black cherry lingered in the back of her throat as she gasped. The Mauer’s had left their wine cabinet unlocked, and now the wine had spilled, leaving behind a large, elliptical stain.
