READING
Dan has to do his laundry today. The last time he washed his clothes was almost two weeks ago. He hates doing laundry. It feels like a waste of time, but now he needs something to wear. It’s Thursday morning. This is a good time to get it done.
In his bedroom there’s a huge pile of dirty clothes. He puts them into a laundry basket, gets the detergent, and goes down to the laundry room in the basement of his apartment building.
Fortunately, there isn’t anyone using the machines. Sometimes Dan has to wait until another tenant is finished washing and drying clothes. He puts a load of dark clothes into the washer. These are mostly jeans, t-shirts, and shirts he wears to work. Then he goes back upstairs to do other things while the machine gets to work.
When he comes back down to the laundry room, someone else is there waiting to use the washing machine. It’s his neighbor, Suzanne.
“Hi Suzanne. How are you doing?” asks Dan.
Suzanne, with a seductive glint in her eye, brushed a strand of hair away from her face. “Oh, I’m just chilling today, Dan. How about you?”
