And I was like, but ma'am, this isn't outerwear.

It's innerwear.

In fact, I'm wearing it inside here in case it's a little over air conditioned.

I just want to make sure that I'll stay warm.

She's like, ma'am, I don't care if that's outerwear, innerwear, or underwear.

You can't wear that in there.

I was like, fine.

So I took it off, and I threw it in my locker.

And I stood against the locker, hoping to blend in.

And then another woman, who was another visitor, a little bit older, comes up to me and was like, ma'am, you know you can't wear that in there.

And I was like, well, what do you mean?

I mean, they just took my cardigan.

And she's like, they're not going to let you in there.

You have bare shoulders.

And I was like, I don't know what to do.

I looked up at the clock, and it was 2.30, and they stopped processing visitors by 3.

And I couldn't possibly make the hour and 45-minute round trip that I had made there to go home change, and there certainly wasn't any bodegas around there.

And I was like, what was I going to do?

The fact that I had bare shoulders was going to stand between me and saying goodbye to my friend.

And I started crying.
