Please read Mistress Keera Parts 1 to 8 for context.
There is no sexual interaction or humiliation in this part. But it is necessary for context.
We sped on to our next appointment. Mistress parked again adjacent to a swish office building. We rode the lift to the top floor. The offices were pretty deserted and Mistress Keera breezed ahead to one of the open doorways shouting,
"Cathy, we're here!"
"Come on in, Keera."
My Mistress pointed to a chair in the waiting area and said "Sit and wait."
After about fifteen minutes a small slight woman came and said "We are ready for you now."
She looked in her early sixties, cropped grey hair, steel rimmed glasses and dressed in a severe black business suit. She directed e to a chair in front of her desk behind which sat my mistress. When I sat into the chair it seemed to give under my weight and sank until it was only about eight inches to the ground.
"Now let's get to it. Usually this point in a loving relationship does not come until much later. When two girls have lived together for a while they want to commit, but then something happens that causes one of them to cheat. Regrettable, but it happens. They can go on to rebuild their relationship but I always advise that the practical elements get sorted out first. Now I see from your correspondence that you reached this point very quickly. But I, as an accountant, always counsel caution. So that is what we are here today to do. You look puzzled but, rest assured, things will become clear."
She continued, "first of all are you here of your own free will? Are you a willing participant in these discussions?"
I indicated that I was but had really no interest in finance.
She then asked me a lot of questions about my financial activities. I confessed that I knew little about any financial well being even my own. I had left all the dealings with a friend who was an accountant.
"I would use the term friend loosely, as he did not do much to maximise the earnings from your investments. Indeed had Keera not shown me your financial papers and statements, you could have been in a dire financial position in less than two years."
Again I restated my position, of my entire lack of knowledge or interest in finances.
Cathy was exasperated and said that my cavalier attitude could not continue. If not for my sake, ten at least for Keera's.
Keera interjected, "Cathy, you need to calm down. Neither myself or tinytim have any interest in finance. I think I speak for both of us that we appreciate your help and that we are grateful for your experience and intervention but we really just want to get on with this journey."
I nodded agreement, "Have we enough money to continue to live the life that we need to live, Miss Cathy, that my Mistress will have the necessary wherewithal to buy what she needs or sees fit?"
Cathy agreed that we had...for the time being...
'Well then Miss Cathy, if my Mistress agrees, that we should put whatever mechanisms in place to ensure that this continues. I say again, that I really don't care about money, but I will do whatever it takes to make this work, sell assets, get a job, get two jobs, whatever."
It was my Mistress's turn to nod in agreement.
