A broke uni student has today feigned equality by attempting to look as though she planned to split the bill.
It’s alleged Kristie Burton [18] had gone on her first date with a bloke she met at a house party, having exchanged some solid chat while they were both under the influence of alcohol.
However, when he’d asked to meet her at a local reef restaurant, Kristie had been well aware that she had little money to her name.
Technically, she could afford to eat out, but it would mean scrimping and saving for the next five days as she waited for her paycheque.
But not wanting to come across as entitled or a traitor to the feminist cause, Kristie knew she couldn’t assume he would pay for the entire bill. – which is where some good old-fashioned charades came in handy.
Waiting with her bag perched upon her lap as the waiter dropped off the bill, Kristie started fishing around her bag with a feigned look of frustration, digging through piles of receipts and lipgloss to find the pesky wallet that evaded her.
“Sorry, haha, such a big bag.”
“It’s in here somewhere.”
More to come.
