NO,is an answer i rarely give.

I always have difficulties saying No to people. And for that, I just bought chinos I will never wear.

It all started early last month when a friend referred me to this guy with a boutique in town whom he assured me had the kind of chino pants I like. So I stopped by one day on my way to the office and it turned out the pants were nothing close to what I like but not wanting to water down the seller's ego, I lied that the pants were cool and that I would definitely buy one at a later date. In my head I knew that was it.

The tragedy is I forgot I am always used that route, passing this guy with his "sad" pants and him stopping me, making small talk and urging me to promote him. You know what the genius in me said? I would buy this end month. I redeemed some bonus time for myself. Then today the guy reminded me about my promise. I feigned bad memory but it just didn't work.

So I coughed fucking $30 for something I do not like just to please a human being. But at least I will donate it to some homeless person who will thank me profusely and henceforth I will no longer have to hide from this guy and his boutique with sad pants.
