Reluctant Fare

Went to pick up a guy this morning and when I arrived outside the house he came out and gave me the fare and sent me away. This was the second time he had done this that morning. He explained drunkenly that he had not yet had enough beer to go home and face the rage of his wife "she’ll rip my face off and feed it to the dog" he said." Send me another cab in half an hour I'll have a few more beers" he said . How many more taxis he paid and sent away after that I don’t know perhaps I should have parked around the corner and kept going back for the money every twenty minutes.
