At Nancy and Bob's, the girls performed their magic and lunch was instantly ready. There was hotdogs for the little ones and sandwiches for the rest of us. The kids wolfed down the dogs and had a cookie for their desert while sitting at Nancy's kitchen table. The rest of us found chairs on the porch. Alice went home for some big dill pickles and some potato chips to add to our mid day snack. Bob and I had a beer to wash down lunch while the ladies all had either a soft drink or iced tea.
Maria was washing faces and arms of three very tired kids. Jorge could hardly keep his eyes open since he finished with his lunch. Maria herded the three into the living room and settled them onto the floor to nap.
Bob stood and stretched and announced he was going up stairs to have a lazy Sunday afternoon nap as well. He gathered Nancy into his arms and asked if she would join him. Nancy looked at the other girls and then back to Bob and smiled. They started for the stairs but stopped. Nancy turned and said, "Alice why don't you and Linda join us for a nap. Linda I heard you had some special talent that Bob wanted to get a close up view of."
Alice and Linda looked at each other then the rest of us then got up and followed Bob and Nancy.
Mary had gone to the bathroom and came back into the room holding my cell phone. "Your pants were buzzing. Says you are popular with four voice mail messages."
I pressed the call button then entered the pass code. The first three messages were hang-ups. The fourth messages had a long pause then an "ah, um" pause then hang-up. I checked to see if there was a telephone number related to the call. There was only an "unknown" for the last four calls. Oh well, whoever it was, would call back if were important.
Mary, Julie and Maria had all gathered at the porch table so I sat down with them. Julie looked at Mary then Maria then me. "Steve, do you own a home or other property?"
"No. When I got divorced, I gave my ex our house and the payments. I've been a loner in a small apartment for the last six years. Good way to save some money. I have been thinking about getting a place of my own pretty soon though."
"Well, I might have an idea you might like." Julie said. "Would you considered going in with me to get a place together?"
"You already have a place, Julie. What kind of deal are you thinking of and what about Mary?" I asked.
Mary jumped in with, "I would be a part of this too but I don't have a bunch of cash handy as I just paid off the mortgage on the house. The rest of our money is tied up in a trust. Terry and I had to mortgage the house to pay for our parents expenses when the died. I have the equity in it but half only half the value of the house."
"Julie," I began. "You have known me for only a couple of days. Mary considers you a good, knowledgeable businesswoman. Would that be a good business decision to do something like that with someone you barely know?"
Mary then said, "Steve, don't be mad, but since that is what I do for a living, I ran a mercantile on you. I also had our branch where you live do a back-ground check. I did all this because I didn't know whether you were here for fun or went with Terry for some of his money."
"Does Terry have money? Does he have money other than the equity in the house? If so I wouldn't have known about it. We met in a hotel bar and never did talk about personal stuff." I queried then asked. "Hope you found out I was a normal guy Mary, I enjoy being around you."
"Just around me?" Mary asked with a smile. "I thought you like being near me, on me and in me." With that, all three girls giggled.
"Yeah, yeah," I continued. "You know what I mean. Anyway, the question was to Julie. Why would you want to partner up to me? What would be in it for you? Or even me?"
"Okay." Said Julie. "Let's see if I can get this all straight for us. We went out today to look at the preserve. While we were looking, Nancy took us to a few of her friends' homes. Some of these places are huge and gorgeous. Some are really something special. Anyway, at one of the places we went to, Nancy's friend asked if we might be looking for a place here. She said that since her husband had passed away, she wanted to sell their big house and get a condo like Nancy has. She showed us the whole place. It was absolutely unbelievable. When we finished looking at it, I thought I might sell my place and get it just for myself but it is just too huge for only me. The lady offered the place at a price that would be a lot less than what the house would be in an executive neighborhood much less the preserve. She said she had just decided to sell it and was only asking enough for a condo and the moving costs. I thought that if you were going to stay around here, you and I could partner in the place and perhaps stay there full time. If not full time, it would be one hell of a weekend place. What do you think of that idea Steve."
There were three faces looking expectantly at me. "So this is what you guys were up to and talking to Bob and Alice about. This whole thing sounds too good to be true but you guys seem to generate some kind of luck between you. Can I have a look at the place?"
Julie jumped up and said. "Yeah, I'll call her right now. She said we could come back over there if we wanted too."
Julie had a thirty-second conversation then said, "Come on let's go."
"Should I put on some clothes or shorts or something?" I asked.
Mary said, "This is a naturist preserve you know. Not many people wear clothes. You would probably embarrass the lady if you wore something."
We took Maria's SUV for a one minute drive down the street to the estate areas. The driveway was longer than the street to get there. We had to push the call button at a gate. A voice said "Come on in" and the gate opened. We drove up another very nice driveway to the front of a huge two story place with an brick drive and fancy entrance. We parked and started for the front door. The four of us were about to go up the steps to the entrance when the door opened. Standing there was an older nude black lady in pretty good condition. Her breasts were not huge but sagged some with age. When I finally made it to her face I was met with a gentle smile. I was in shock. I was speechless.
"Close you mouth Steve, flies will get in." Said Julie who approached the woman and gave her a hug. Mary and Maria followed Julie's example and hugged her too. Julie then said, "This is Steve Johnson, the fellow we spoke of."
"Nice to meet you Steve." The lady said.
I was still speechless.
The lady kept smiling at me then approached me, took my arms in her hands and looked at me. She then just stepped forward and wrapped her arms around me and gave me a strong hug. I was so startled and so excited I popped a woody. She had to feel it.
She let go of me and backed up and said, "I am truly honored. What a nice way to greet a lady." She and the girls all giggled.
I must have been beet red. My erection instantly drooped to normal again so I was a little less embarrassed.
I sputtered, pouring out my greeting in a breathless "This is an honor to meet you. I have every album you have ever made. I love your voice and your music. This is really an honor."
"Jeez," Julie said. "That's the first time I've seen that boy tongue tied. You sure got him wound up."
"That's really sweet of you Steve. Thank you. But you're not here to talk about me, you're here to look at the house. Let's take a tour. Oh and call me Lee, that's what all my friends know me as." And off we went.
For first time I noticed a lady, probably Latino, standing by the stairwell dressed in a dark dress with a white apron. As we approached the stairs Lee said, "Anita, would you make some iced tea. We'll be back down in a few minutes."
We went upstairs. There were eight bedrooms. Four bedrooms had private bathrooms. The other four shared two bathrooms between rooms. Four of the bedrooms had huge walk-in closets that joined the bathroom with a dressing area. The other bedrooms had smaller walk-in closets but no dressing area. The bedrooms were all accessed from a central area that had a couch and some chairs like a sitting room. It was here I finally stopped and listened. Everywhere we had been there had been soft jazz playing. The music was very relaxing. Really classy.
We went back down stairs and began looking around there. From the stairway we entered a room that could have been a study but was huge. The room was the entire side of the house. It had a very nice pool table and a couple of electronic games along with a large table and chairs that appeared to be a reading table for all the books on the walls of that end of the room. At the end of the room near the back of the house was a very nice grand piano with a couple of groupings of easy chairs and couches. It one corner near a door was a large bar. Everything was polished, shiny, and glistening. This place was just too much. We went through the door by the bar, crossed a hallway and found ourselves in a huge kitchen. Mostly white, gray counter tops, stainless steel appliances. At one end of the kitchen was a table with some chairs. The table had a bench on two sides that were in front of a window to the patio. The table had glasses of ice and a pitcher full of dark liquid.
Lee passed through the kitchen then through a door into a formal dinning room. The table was big enough for a dozen chairs. There were at least six more matching chairs placed along the wall with small décor tables.
We breezed through there into a very formal looking living room. Here there was another small grand piano with a ton of chairs and couches. It didn't look as if any of this had been used a lot.
From there we went through a door that had us all back to the entrance. Lee led us past the big open stairwell and headed straight to the back of the house. The hallway was the one we had gone through from the big room to the kitchen. Lee opened the door and we were in a great garden atmosphere. There was a very nice stone patio that wrapped around the side of the house. I could see four tables with chairs and umbrellas. About thirty feet out was a large pool complete with diving board. Behind the pool was an expanse of lush green grass and a block fence similar to that at the front of the property.
Playing in the pool were two dark kids about 8 to 10. Lee waived at them and said, "Those are Anita's kids. Really good kids too."
We stood there a minute soaking up the beauty of landscaping. Lee then said, "Let's go in and have something to drink and I'll answer questions for you."
Inside we were all seated when Lee began. "As you can see this is a huge house. It is just too large for me. I want to go back to a small place like Nancy's or may be even a little smaller. I enjoy being by myself and would prefer it to be just me. When I want company, this is a great place to be as there is always someone around to visit with. My husband loved to entertain. He loved to show off and had this place as well as the big place in the city and big apartments in New York and a high rise condo in Los Angeles. I've sold the big house in the city and want to trade this one for a condo here. I'll probably get something in the city too. Maybe a downtown condo that would be available when visitors come. If it's small enough they won't stay long. Most of the people who came out here for my husband never knew this was a naturist preserve. Nudists park if you wish. They just thought it a ritzy place with a gate guard and all. The guard can send you past the weekly rentals or he can send you down our lane with all the fancy places. Now I want to sell this place. However, I want to sell it to someone I like and there are some conditions that go along with it.
We all sat listening intently.
First, my condition is there may be times that I may need your help entertaining some visitors. Probably once a year may be even twice a year some times. I would provide all the staff for a party and do everything necessary to get ready for it. You would not be expected to have overnight guests.
Then there is Anita. Anita has been with me since she was fifteen. She and her husband were wetbacks hiding on the streets. I was looking for a maid for the city house when my neighbor's maid asked me if I would talk to Anita. I did and liked her. She began working as a day maid. She was very good. She was always on time and worked very hard. She used to ask me if she could use the washing machine for her clothes. Of course it was all right. I noticed one day some men's clothes in her basket and asked about it. She said they were her husband's clothes. I asked her where he was and she said he worked for a landscape guy. I should have asked before but I asked her if she had a green card. The answer was obvious as she started crying saying she would leave right away but please don't call the immigration people. Anyway, I had my lawyer fix her up with a green card and had her husband come by and visit with me and my husband to perhaps have them both work for us. My husband loved Carlos right away and hired him on the spot. We were able to Carlos a green card as well. We eventually invited them to live in our guest quarters over the garage in the city. Well that was a long time ago. Carlos and Anita have two kids now and now live in the house here. They seem to be fine with the preserve but will not go nude while they are working. The kids love the open attitude here. No one cares they are Latin. Just like no one cares I am black. Nice huh? Hey, speaking of garages, I didn't show you the one here. Come on."
"Uhm Lee?" I asked.
"Yes?" She said.
"So what kind of condition is there for Anita?"
"Oh, yeah, that. Well whoever buys this place has to keep Anita and Carlos and keep them here. If they leave here they will lose their green cards. The kids are natural as they were born here, but Carlos and Anita are still workers. Right now they live in two of the bedrooms upstairs."
I thought for a second then said, "Let's look at the garage." We went out a door in the kitchen and entered a large garage. In it was a Rolls Royce, a Jaguar roadster, a Chrysler mini van, an empty space and an old pick up truck.
"I don't know what I'll do with the Rolls. I barely ever use it. Carlos drives me to some functions in it, but it is a waste just sitting there. The Jag is my favorite but the van is the most practical. The pickup belongs to Carlos." Lee said. She pushed a button and the nearest garage door opened letting the sun in. The garage floor was immaculate, no oil spots anywhere on the sealed and painted concrete floor.
"This is very nice, Lee. But all this is probably way over our heads." I said this shaking my head.
"Come on back in Steve and let's talk." Lee said as took my arm and led me back to the kitchen.
When we were seated again, Mary and Julie had put me on the bench across from Lee and sat on each side of me. Maria was sitting next to Lee in a chair. Lee began, "You've heard my two biggest conditions for the house. These two conditions could be very expensive and will affect how you live. Carlos and Anita keep the place perfect. I'll want to borrow Anita to help out at my new place probably. But, anyway, if someone could handle what I want I will help him or her own this place. The house and property will appraise for way over five million."
I had just taken a drink of tea when she said that. I choked. Tea ran out of my nose, drooled down my chin and I kept coughing. Mary started slapping my back while Julie grabbed a napkin and wiped my face.
"I'm sorry." Said Lee, "I didn't mean to shock you."
"Shock is the word. I'm not usually around people talking about property worth five million dollars." I said shaking my head.
"Well it is a lot of money but the property could appraise for well over ten million in the city." Lee said. "Fifteen acres alone would be that much in the right area. Anyway, you don't have to worry about five million dollars. Do you think you could come up with about five hundred thousand? Hang on, before you get too excited let me describe the whole thing."
Lee took a drink and looked us over then focused back on me. "I would want five hundred thousand up front. I will personally carry another five hundred thousand. What do you think of that?"
I shook my head and said, "Even if we can get up five hundred thousand and you carry another five hundred, how are we going to pay for the balance?"
Looking at me with a stern but amused expression Lee said, "There is no balance. That would be the whole deal half cash and I carry half. We would get attorneys to do contracts and all that but that is the deal."
I sat back exhaling loudly. Across from me Maria looked at me with an expectant expression. Julie and Mary turned to with a questioning look. "This is kind of sudden isn't it guys?"
Mary said, "This area would still be easy for me to get to work from. I could sell the house and split the proceeds. Houses are going fast right now. This is one of those deals that comes along and finds you. Besides, I love this place."
Then it was Julie's turn, "If I lived out here, I could be even farther from the city. This is a great house to relax in. If you don't go in with us Steve, I think I can handle the deal by myself. But, I would much rather be partners with you."
I looked at Maria and asked. "Where does that leave you Maria?"
"Same as always. Visiting out here wouldn't be that much different than visiting Julie at her condo." She said. "Besides. You need someone who can talk to Anita and Carlos."
"I speak some Spanish so that shouldn't be too big a problem." I said.
Lee interjected, "Anita and Carlos have gone to school an speak very good English. They never speak in Spanish to each other in front of my guests or me. Even the kids respect that."
While staring at the table and shaking my head I thought about how fast everything keeps going since I've been around this bunch.
"Well, I guess I could work here as well as anywhere. I would have to set aside an office area."
Lee jumped up and held out her hand for me to get up. Julie slid out and I got up. Lee took my hand and pulled me toward the big room. Lee was pointing at the end of the room with the pool table, reading table, and bookshelves. I really hadn't noticed but there was an enclosure in the corner of the room. It was a big enclosure. Lee walked up the end of the bookshelf nearest the wall and opened a door that was there. I went in and stared. This was a very nice office area. A large desk, credenza and a couple of side chairs. The desk had a couple of large flat screen monitors on it. On a shelf on one side of the room was a very large monitor with eight sections of video. I recognized it to be in the house, the patio, the entrance, and the gate. On the other wall was a wide screen TV set so it could be watched from the desk or leather love seat next to the desk. The way the room was built it had windows on two walls. Lots of light, very comfortable.
Lee was standing next to me holding my arm in a way her breast was against my arm. Very disconcerting.
"Don't you just love this room." Lee said softly. "My husband would hole up in here and be lost for the day. It was his favorite hide out. I don't use it much as all I do is sit at the kitchen table and write checks when I need. Otherwise I let the accountant do everything. Do you think you could use this for an office?" With that she slid her hand around my waist in a very familiar way and leaned her head on my shoulder. It was a reflex but I put my arm around her and gave a gentle squeeze. Lee turned to me, stood on her tiptoes and gave me a very soft meaningful kiss on the lips. With the kiss and her now erect nipples brushing my chest, my hormone meter rose quickly. Lee felt it and looked down. Her right hand brushed down to take hold of it. When she had a firm grip on it, she said, "Thanks, it's great to have that affect on you."
Lee let go of the handle and pulled away then took my hand and led me back to the kitchen. When I got there the girls all turned and instantly focused on my middle. Julie chuckled and asked, "Trying to get another concession out of the deal Lee?"
"I may have to include visitation rights, Steve seems to be interested and I'm not so old I've forgotten all the pleasure a good man can bring." Lee gave me another kiss on the cheek then sat at the table again.
Mary looked at Julie, Marie, then me and asked. "What do you think?"
Julie said simply, "I'm in."
Maria smiling said, "I want in too but you may have to take it out in trade. I'm going to have to talk to someone about where the schools are."
Mary, who was sitting next to me, put her arm around me and hugged me saying, "This is something we used to talk about when we were young. Everyone but Nancy would be in on it. Nancy is just down the street so I guess that would be okay. We used to talk about having a big place to share. A place that would be big enough for all of our families. Steve, it seems we have made you a member of this group. So if you want to join us, it would be great. But, I want to do this, now. Right now before I get cold feet or think about it too long."
I sat back again and exhaled big. "I guess I'm in. Besides anything else it will be a good investment. We'll all have to get some part time jobs just to furnish this place."
Lee looked up grinning. "The only thing you're gonna need is the master bedroom and may be some kitchen stuff. I have all my city furniture that I love so much in storage. I planned on leaving everything here in place. Even the books in the library as I have so many more in storage. Probably duplicates of what's here."
"Lee that may be too much. There's probably several hundred thousand worth of furniture here." I said.
"Nope, your paying for it with what I want and for my considerations. Hang on, let me call Anita and Carlos." With that Lee went to the patio door stepped out then right back in with Anita and Carlos following.
"Anita, Carlos, this is Steve, Mary, Julie, and Maria. They have agreed to what I wanted to do with the house. They seem to be fine people. I will include all of our arrangements in the house agreement. Anita, you will still help me at my new place and perhaps in the city when I get a new place. Carlos, you will still drive for me when I need you and do my repairs when I need them. Maria, you said something about schools, do you have kids and how many?" Lee looked at Maria.
"I have twin girls five going on six and a boy just three." Maria said.
"What of you husband?" Asked Lee.
"He left us for a new life in Brazil" Said Maria misty eyed.
"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that." Lee said. "Anyway, that should make this a busy place with Maria's and Anita's kids chasing around. You'll have to put up a kid fence around the pool for the little ones though."
Anita spoke for the first time, "The girls can help with the little ones. They will be happy to watch out for them. Both have taken the life guard classes and the Y."
Then Carlos spoke softly. "I will find out how much a fence would be. If we need it then I will already know who to get a deal from.
Anita spoke again. "Thank you for considering keeping us here with you. This place has become our home. Miss Lee is our family. We trust her to make sure we will be okay."
Lee was at a phone on the counter. "I know it's Sunday Clarence but this is important. First thing Monday I will need you to meet with some people and me. You can draw up an agreement and we'll get some of my business taken care of. Thank you Clarence, you are a dear. Say hi to Matty for me. Bye." She dialed another number then excited said, "Janet, this is Lee. Is my new place ready? It is? Good, I want to close on it tomorrow afternoon. No it isn't too quick. It's finished right? Then fine, I want it, I want to close on it and move in as soon as possible. I've already made a deal and shook on it."
With that Lee leaned over and motioned to Julie to shake hands. She then turned to Mary, then Maria, and then me shaking our hands in turn. "Probably about 3 or 4 as I have to be in the city in the morning. Okay I'll see you then. If there is a problem call me on my cell. I will have it turned on by 11. Bye."
"Okay everyone it is set. We meet tomorrow morning and we will draw up an agreement and get this started. Let's go into the big room and celebrate."
Lee led the way to the bar. She removed a bottle of champagne and handed it to me to open. Lee took out seven glasses, took the bottle from me and poured. We all took a glass raised it to each other with smiles all around and drank.
Julie said, "Let's get back. I need to get home so I can arrange for some cash transfers. I don't have that kind of money in my checking account."
"I'll have to do the same." said Mary. Somehow we have to get hold of Terry ah Sherry and tell her about this so we can perhaps sell the house."
I shook hands with Carlos and Anita, got another meter raising hug from Lee with a wink and loaded up into the Car. Maria took us back to Nancy's. We went in to find Bob and Nancy on the porch. Linda was in the living room sitting with some groggy eyed kids.
Nancy stood and held out her arms. "Well? What's the deal? What happened?"
Mary, Julie, and Maria started talking at once which seemed to prompt Nancy to talk at the same time as well. I couldn't understand a word. I turned to Bob who was grinning and shook my head.
"See, I told you, get those four together and the shit hits the fan. So what did you and Lee decide?" Bob asked.
"I guess we're neighbors or at least we are going to be neighbors."
Bob said, "Nice place isn't it. I envy you having a place like that. Didn't know computer techs and programmers made enough for a place like that."
"They don't. This is a collective effort between Julie, Mary, Maria, and myself. Somehow we are all going to be partners in this thing. All of us need to get back home to arrange some stuff. Lee is anxious to have a deal done by tomorrow."
I went to gather my stuff to find Nancy, Mary, and Julie already dressed and putting everything else in bags. I quickly dressed and went to help Maria. Linda was finishing dressing Jorge and Maria was nearly dressed. I tied shoes for the "Nita's" then took them down stairs. Bob wanted to divide up the beer and stuff. I told him to keep it. I'll be back to help him drink some.
We loaded up and took off, driving by Lee's place for another peek. We waived at the guard and sped off for home. It was only about 30 minutes in light traffic to get back to Julie's. We unloaded her stuff and said we would call her in a little. Maria then took us to Julie's place and dropped us saying she would talk to us later.
Julie and I went in and headed directly for the kitchen. I started on some coffee while she got out some snacks to warm up. I looked up at the portable wall phone and answering machine and saw there were messages. That reminded me, I went to my toiletry bag and got my cell phone out. There were three messages on it too.
I quickly pressed the call button then entered the pass code. The first two were dead air but the third was a voice.
"Steve, I'm sorry about all this. I need to talk to you about everything. I will keep trying till I get you. Please let me talk to you Steve, I really need to talk to you. I'll try again tomorrow. I'm sorry Steve. I love you. I really do."
Sherry's voice. I stood there stunned at what I had just heard. A couple of days ago she was blowing me off and now she wants to talk. What do you think of that shit.
Standing at the counter was Mary staring at me. "You look like you've seen a ghost."
"Not seen, but heard." I said, then pressed the repeat button and gave the phone to Mary. She listened then pressed the off button for the cell phone.
Looking at me she said, "She sounds almost desperate. Wonder what happened, wonder if she's okay."
"Don't know. Hey there are messages on the answering machine. See what's there."
Mary went to the answering machine and pressed play. The first two were hang ups, the next an organization wanting old clothes donations, and then the last, Sherry's voice.
"Mary, Steve, I need to talk to you guys and explain some stuff. I really need to talk to you. I'm kind of nuts and want to talk to you guys. Please talk to me when I call. I'll try tomorrow, Monday till I reach you. I love you guys. Till tomorrow."
Mary and I looked at each other then Mary came to me and hugged me, holding me close to her with her head on my chest.
"Too much Steve. Too much is happening too fast. May be we need to slow down some."
"It's going to be okay Mary. If Sherry needs us, she will call. Our lives have to be whatever they are. Sherry isn't a part of them right now. We have to have our lives too you know. We also have to consider your other amigos, Julie and Maria. You all were pretty excited about the house."
"I was, I am, I still am. The house is such a deal. We'll never get a chance at owning anything like that. It is perfect for our entire original plan to have a common place. There's even enough room to build more houses out there. We have to go forward on it. Thanks Steve. You reminded me of my priorities."
Mary brought out her laptop and fired it up. She had a wireless connection to her DSL router. While she logged in, I went for my laptop. I had to plug mine in as it was low on charge but it immediately connected to the wireless router. Ain't technology great. I logged into my bank account and checked my accounts. My checking was full of paychecks. But then I probably had a stack of bills to pay too. My rent and electric was an automatic withdrawal. I had to manually pay my cable bill and other stuff like insurance. But that wasn't due. I had more money than I would have thought. Nearly twenty grand in the checking. Next I checked the money market account. It was a low yield account so I kept only part of my savings there. There was nearly a hundred grand in that account. I logged out of the bank and logged into my stock account. They have a quick look screen that shows the estimated value of stocks after sale based on the current market values. Wow, I've been doing well, That account was worth nearly three hundred grand. Shit, I'm pretty well off. Should take my money and run. Head for Hawaii and be a beach bum. I must have been grinning too big as Mary said "What?"
"I'm just doing better than I thought. Shouldn't be a problem for what we need."
"You only need a hundred to make it an even deal. The only one who will have a problem will be Maria. Julie and I can cover her part so there is no need to worry about it." With a flourish, Mary pressed what looked like the enter key then said, "There, done. I put two hundred and fifty in the checking account and can transfer it directly into Lee's account if necessary. That should take care of any miscellaneous stuff we may have."
"I don't have that much liquid but I will have a little over a hundred cash I can transfer." With that I liquidated almost all of the money market account and put it into the checking. With about a hundred and fifteen to play with, I should be okay. "Okay that's done, I'm ready."
Mary picked up the phone and called Julie. "I've got two fifty set up for tomorrow. That will cover Maria and me. Steve says he has his hundred. You have what? What do you need five hundred thousand for. No, No, No, we need to do just like Lee says. Pay her the five up front and let her carry the balance. We'll discuss an early payoff at the lawyers. If we come up with too much right away, she's gonna think we are fat cats and should pay more. Just remember to bring your account numbers so we can transfer funds. As soon as Lee's bank confirms the receipt, the deals done. Okay, we could do that. Yeah, yeah okay. Glad you talked to Maria already. Sounds good. Night baby see you in the AM."
"Julie said we might just have her transfer the money from her account so it will hit Lee's all at once. We could transfer ours to her and have her covered. She agrees that she and I will cover Maria."
"Where in the hell did Julie get a half a mill from?" That's a lot of bread.
"On her back Steve." Mary exclaimed. "She's good at what she does and guys ask for her again and again. Besides she's so cheap she probably has the first fifty she got for doing a bj in a bar. She doesn't spend money for anything unless it is for someone else or to help her in her business."
"I don't know about you baby, but I'm bushed. Let's shut this stuff down and get to bed." I said.
Mary answered, "I'm ready, lets do it."
We shut off everything, put the dirty dishes in the sink then went to bed. We cuddled with Mary's head on my shoulder. I was thinking I could use some loving when all of sudden it was light outside and Mary was stirring at my side.
I was ram rod straight and had to pee, immediately. I kissed Mary on the forehead then slipped out of bed.
Another day.
