Smellin' good!
I had a very awkward yet funny moment. I had just done a long run on the beach and had quickly showered and changed so I could checkout of the hotel and get home.
I was in the elevator when this older couple gets on. The elevator door had been shut only a few seconds when the wife turns to me and says “You smell so nice!”
Now I was completely shocked and embarrassed since I never wear cologne or anything and didn’t know what to say as her husband peered at me. I blurted out as if it was an excuse “I just took a shower.”
There was a pause in the conversation, when the husband said “Maybe it is me that smells good?” she responded sarcastically with “Yeah right.”
I quickly left the elevator when the door opened since it looked like they were going to have an argument. Though I was a bit glad that I took the hotel soap home with me.
