Chapter 3:- Dyl Honey
We stared at the woman who thought three-inch spiked heels were a trendy fashion statement in the B.C. mountains.
“Dyl, honey, can you get me some wine?” Blond-Bimbo simpered. She stumbled toward a padded chair. “I’m parched.”
Dyl Honey immediately stopped setting up their tent and pulled out a bottle of wine from a cooler. He passed the woman the wine and a corkscrew, and Carol and I had to look away for fear we’d burst out laughing when the woman stared, uncomprehending, at the alien metal object. When we glanced back, Blond-Bimbo was trying to hammer the corkscrew through the metal wrapper.
Carol nudged me with her elbow. “Now isn’t she a keeper?”
Snickering quietly, I grabbed two flashlights and whispered, “I have to pee.”
When Carol looked at me with that ‘why are you telling me’ look, I shoved a flashlight into her hand. “You’re coming with me. I’m not going into these spooky old woods alone. God only knows what’s lurking out there.”
“Whooooooo,” Carol moaned, doing an Academy Award-winning ghost impression.
It freaked the hell out of me...
