Hello, Reddit, or more specifically, gonewildstories. I have been a lurker for a while now, not really posting any comments or anything. Granted, I’ve never been much of a commenter to begin with, so that’s not much of a change. Laying out the prerequisite “didn’t happen recently”, I’ve been sitting on this tale for over two years, as it’s something that I am somewhat ashamed of, despite having been quite a fun romp. I do not remember this as perfectly as I would wish I did, so any dialogue will probably be paraphrased unless it was something that stands very clearly in my mind.
To set the stage for you, this all began through connections to my place of work, which stands as a rather large retail chain. I won’t name it, for obvious reasons, but it is easily one of the big ones throughout the US. Despite working in another department, I had found myself becoming friends with a number of cashiers, one of whom, we’ll call her Laura for the sake of identification, began to invite me over to her house.
