From the moment he laid eyes on her, Roberto knew she was the one. Or so he thought.
Mercedes was gorgeous with a body to match.
For somebody on the rebound after being dumped by his long-time girlfriend, she was heaven-sent. He became the envy of his friends when he drove her around town.
But then he found out that Mercedes was high maintenance and had an unpredictable temper.
It came to pass that Roberto had seen enough red lights and decided to break the relationship.
He took Mercedes back to the car dealer and exchanged her for another model.

I was riding my new bike to school when somebody threw an egg at me.
It was Derek who I’d later learn was the school bully.
“What are you gonna do about it?” he smirked as his buddies laughed.
I just ignored him, acted as if it wasn’t a big deal, and went to class.
Derek ruled the roost until he challenged my cousin Sam to a fight one day. Unbeknownst to him, Sam, who had recently transferred to our school, was an expert in martial arts.
It was schadenfreude I felt watching Derek get the whacking he truly deserved.
