Vintage Wheels
Vocal Community Microfiction Series - Wheel
Every time I tell my date I collect vintage wheels, it always goes like this:
Why didn't you roll up in it?
It's in the shop.
Can you take me for a ride?
Not really. It's a one-seater.
Can I see pictures of it?
I sigh and show them. The reactions are all the same:
You must be joking.
I'm not.
Seriously?
I'm serious.
You lied to me!
No I didn't!
Afterwards I pay for dinner and never see them again.
It's not my fault though.
I told them it was a one-seater.

ROTFL🤣🤣🤣 Economical too!!! Love it!!!💕❤️
I was not expecting those wheels!
Ooh I like the twist (also, how cool would that be??). “Afterwards, I pay for dinner” is stuck in my head. What a good representation of a transactional series of dates; I feel for the speaker here.
Oi! One seater. Hahahahahahah..Very well played Lorne. I love it.
LOL very cool story!! Here's my Word Hunt entry! https://vocal.media/fiction/a-vicious-vendetta
