« Why? It’s basically empty. »
He looked down at it for a second.
« It smells. »
I didn’t smell anything, but I wasn’t about to argue with him over a garbage bag.
So he tied it up and went outside.
The weird part was that he didn’t come back for about 15 minutes.
Our trash cans are right next to the garage. It takes less than a minute to walk there and back.
When he came inside, I asked where he’d been.
« Just looking for something in the garage. »
I didn’t think much of it.
