WayNo
We’d been out, indulging. The rideshare app sent us a Waymo, and we stumbled into the backseat.
“These windows are super tinted.”
“I noticed.”
We kissed. Hands explored. We started... indulging.
Until the Waymo slammed on the brakes and threw us against the front seats. Lights flashed, and it yelled, “Stop! Sexual harassment!”
I forgot how to breathe.
A woman’s voice came from the speaker. “Ma’am, are you alright?”
“Yes. We were just…”
“I’m checking the video.” (Big sigh) “Folks, please wait until you get home.”
“Video cameras???”
“Yes. This ride has been recorded.”
“Whoa.”
“Can we get a copy?”
