I'm sitting at my little receptionist desk and in walks this saleman. Spent his lunch at the bar. Reeked of smoke. Started his talk, went on like a steam train for AGES. Eyes weren't focusing. The odour of booze, b.o. and stale smoke is still hanging around my area.
I was frozen. This was my dad, resurrected. Guy looked like 70 but couldn't have been over 55. I felt like a deer caught in the headlights. Three people in the office (including the owner) came to my rescue, distracting him. I was sweating and shaking. First panic attack I've had in a while.
Now I feel like I'm going to puke. Was this the ghost of xmas past or xmas future?
I know that I just saw a dead man.
I am freaking out.
