and Rocky
noticed.
“I like big things!” Rocky said with a girlish giggle
and a wink.
Rick stepped back a few inches a little nervous
with being too close to Rocky. “I'll, ah, check and
see,” he said then rushed off.
Rocky sat down in a nearby chair.
“Why me?” Rick asked himself when he entered
the backroom.
Rick returned in a few minutes with a shoe box
in hand.
“Must be your lucky day. I found a pair in your
boat size,” Rick said while he handed Rocky the box.
Rocky removed his sneakers. He opened the
box and slid his feet into the clogs.
Rocky got up and walked up and down the aisle
like a fashion model. “I look dashing, don‟t I?” Rocky
said while he modeled in those clogs.
Rocky‟s face cringed in pain. “You fucking fag!”
Rocky yelled at himself in his normal macho voice.
Then he shook his head while that strange
tingling sensation filled his whole body. “But I like
them. Don't be so mean,” Rocky scolded himself.
Rick looked at Rocky thinking he was loony.
Rocky looked over and his eyes lit up when he
saw a display of sneakers in various colors from
white to green to blue to pink. “How lovely. Can I
get one of those in a football shoe? Preferably pink,”
Rocky asked the salesman in his gay voice.
Rocky‟s face cringed in pain. “Fucking pink?
You are going wear fucking pink shoes. You fucking
pansy! I should kick your fucking ass,” Rocky yelled
at himself in his normal macho voice and tried to kick
his own ass. Then he stopped and slapped the side
61
of his head. “You can be such a bitch!” he cried at
himself.
Rick moved five feet away from Rocky thinking
he was indeed loony. “Should I find some pink
shoes?” Rick cautiously asked.
“Yes please,” Rocky replied in a sweet voice
while he primped his hair with one of his hands.
“Okay,” Rick replied while he walked off to the
backroom and rolled his eyes.
Rick returned a few minutes later with a box in
hand. He walked up to Rocky and handed him the
box then stepped back a few feet.
Rocky slipped off a clog and removed one of the
pink football shoes from the box. He slipped on one
of the shoes and walked up and down the aisle like a
fashion model.
“I‟ll take them,” Rocky jumped up in joy while he
clapped.
“Okay, I‟ll meet you at the register,” Rick replied
happy that Rocky would soon be out of his hair.
Rocky grabbed the two boxes and swished his
hips while he walked to the counter.
Rick rang up the shoes and Rocky paid with a
personal check. Rick placed the boxes in a
shopping bag while a fellow salesman, named
Howie, watched nearby.
“Thank you for shopping at Fancy Shoes,” Rick
said while he handed Rocky the bag.
“Thank you sweetie,” Rocky said and winked at
the salesman.
Rick looked stunned while he watched Rocky
walk out of the store.
“You know, that guy sorta looks like that
quarterback star of the Panthers,” Howie said while
he walked up to the counter
