Toward the end of the dinner party Cecil felt the need to use the water closet. His date was engaged in conversation with the woman to her right and he didn’t want to interrupt.
“Excuse me, ” he asked the gentleman seated next to him. “Might you direct me to the facilities?” The gentleman obliged and Cecil thanked him.
“Whoa!” Cecil had never seen a more plush, fancy bathroom. It had a push-button toilet, with a bidet! The water faucets were ornate, bordering on gaudy — like something you might see in Czar Nicholas Romanov’s restroom.
I better be extra careful in here!
So far, there had been no faux pas during this swanky soiree and Cecil aimed to keep it that way. He wanted to make his girlfriend proud of him, rather than embarrass her like he did at the last party she took him to. He cringed and blushed at the memory.
He decided to forego the bidet, never having used one before. Why tempt fate? Cecil stood before the intimidating toilet and held his breath. His hands were shaking and he silently prayed that his aim was true. After he was sure it was, he let out a sigh of relief.
He carefully zipped up, washed his hands (with soap) and dried them on the frilly napkins rather than the gilded hand towels.
He returned to the party extremely pleased with himself. I wasn’t until later that it was brought to his attention that he had forgotten to flush.
Whatcha think?
