fixed the car their in the parking lot. The wife returned later
to see a small group of people near the car. On closer
inspection she saw a pair of male legs from under the chassis.
Altough the man was in shorts his lack of underpants turned
private parts into glaringly public ones.

into place. On regaining her feet, she looked across the hood
and found herself staring at her husband who was standing idly
by.
