A week ago I went to the grocery store near my house. I’m there a lot since we tend to base meals around what we have on hand and grab the one or two items missing so it’s a few small trips a week.

There’s a man who works there who always seemed to be working hard and would go out of his way to greet me. I had a weird vibe but tried to ignore it. When I went last week he approached me in an aisle with his phone. He showed me a picture that looked like an Only fans ad. Barely dressed woman who just had similar hair to mine. I was kinda horrified and said no. He practically ran away.

It took me a few minutes to understand what just happened and come to terms with the fact that something violating just happened to me and I now needed to act. I told the manager and did what I should. I was scared. The manager said she would make the employee sit upstairs while she checked the cameras.

He snuck away from her. Watched me the whole time I checked out. And shouted at me as I left. I’ve been told he was fired. I’ve only been once since and didn’t see him there. The manager let it slip that this revealed some darker stuff about the employee and his family was involved in getting him care. I don’t know what that means but I hope that whatever it is is okay.

I’ve kinda had this sitting on my brain since. I’ve been saying that I felt rattled but now that the dust has settled I am trying to find a better way to explain my feelings.
