Ch 20 Market Research 

Thea and Misty talked as they drove. The first bar was about three hours away. It was the middle of the day, so it wasn’t busy, but they ordered some appetizers and got a feel for the place. 

The next bar was another thirty minutes away, and it only took them a minute inside before they realized it catered to men. Only men. Men who liked to have sex in specific ways.

They got back in the car and started laughing. “The looks we got when we walked in!” Misty said between laughs.

“They were like, ‘you walked into the wrong bar, sister.’” 

“No penis, no entrance.”

They realized the double entendre at the same time and burst out laughing again.

“Oh my goddess, I will never forget that,” Thea said.

They hit a few more bars, and as they were leaving one with a Western theme, Thea heard Misty’s stomach growl. 

“You ready for dinner?”

Misty smiled. “If you are.”

“I marked a few restaurants in the area since I figured we’d be here around dinnertime. What kind of food do you like?”

“What are the options?” Misty said.

“There’s a steakhouse that’s supposed to be good, a Thai joint, sushi, and a diner that’s supposed to be famous.”

“Pve never had sushi, but I’ve always wanted to,” Misty said.

“Me too!”

A short ride later, they were doing sake bombs and nibbling on edamame while they waited for their main order to come out. The waiter looked at them like they were crazy when they ordered one of every kind of sushi roll.

“Who knows when we’ll be able to get sushi again? We have to, right?” Thea said.
