Sunday. I mentioned yesterday that my brother forgot to tell my parents about Mary bringing a man to our house when we were not there.
As you can imagine, my mom got very nervous and started telling my dad that she couldn’t trust Mary anymore.
I didn’t know my parents’ plan until a few days later when my mom said: “Your dad went to search into Mary’s room and you have no idea what he found”.
“What did he find?”
“A photo album and a diary”
“So?”
“So, do you remember Mary saying how nice the Chinese man from the store down the street where you can develop pictures was to her?”
“Yes”
“Do you know why he was SO nice to her?”
“No, why?”
“Because she was taking freaking pictures with our clothes, in our bathtub and on your dad’s car!!”
We were laughing like crazy.
“Can we see the pictures?”
So she showed us some of the pictures and said: “You won’t see the ones where she’s showing her boobs or the ones where she’s naked and has a mirror between her legs and she’s showing the parts where the sun never shone” (she actually used a VERY DIRTY word there but I don’t mean to make anyone blush).
“No way! She did that??”
“Yes! and she took the film to develop at the Chinese man down the street!! That’s why the guy gave her discounts and was so nice to her”.
“And the diary?”
“Don’t get me started”.

I admit that she did something a bit stupid. Bringing a man to our house wasn’t a smart move.
Taking the pictures with our clothes (or without them on my dad’s car and in the bathtub), I don’t know… I have mixed feelings there. I truly liked her, she was one year younger than me and very smart. She should have taken the pictures and diary with her. Very dumb that she left everything there for anyone to see (of course, you had to go through her stuff, which I think it’s wrong, but according to my parents, it was their house, so they could do it).
I think I tried to defend her but my parents fired her anyway. I was heartbroken. What she did with her private life was her business… She should have been more careful.

Now we are in the digital era… But think about 20 years ago, would you have taken your film to develop at the store down the street to get a discount?
How easy are things now; you take a picture and you are only one click away from showing it to whoever you want without anyone else (??) having to see it.

I just imagined the bedroom of the Chinese guy… I bet he never bought an adult magazine again.
