Broma

Fortunately I
learnt the word meaning a joke in Spanish.
I was hitching in Spain with Seema from Canada. A
voluptuous redhead. An apparition in a mini skirt
with ample breasts and stomach to match. But we
were having a great carefree time until we hit
Granada.
We agreed no pickups with two men in the car and
no lifts in the dark when night suddenly fell.
WE were stuck in siesta time and no cars. We were
getting desperate after one hour at the roadside.
Our aim was to get to Valencia. We obviously had
not worked out the time and mileage!
Behold an old car came our way with only one
driver. He stopped and said he would take us to
Valencia. We clambered in excitedly only to
discover that further down the road he was
picking up his friend. Two young men and it was
getting dark. So far we were alright.
But that was to change. My Spanish was Italian
with a ‘th’ ending instead of ‘ione’
ending.
Suddenly his hand was feeling my left knee. I
brushed his hand aside as I would a bluebottle
but meanwhile Seema in the back seat next to the
young frisky puppy, was pushing him away as he
was trying to feel her ample breasts.
Horror of horrors he had turned the car off the
main road saying it was a shortcut. Worse he
stopped the car, reversing it. I shouted we weren’t
putanas in Italian but the driver understood and
grinning said ‘Una broma’. Thankfully I
had learnt the word that day.
Night fell and the two of them agreed we could
not go out dancing in Valencia as the city was
too far away. That we must spend the night in a
hotel.
A hotel in the middle of nowhere? Eventually he
found a cheap looking place. Got out of the car
and booked four single rooms.
I had an upset tummy with the shock of a possible
rape. Seema was crying still in the back seat.
Eventually we passed an uneventful night and
found the men had fled leaving us with the bill
for four rooms!
We were stranded as there was no traffic on the
secondary road. Eventually we got a ride back to
Granada on a milk float!
A lesson learnt that time.
