I park on the street and walk up to the front door. I knock then step back while I wait for you to answer. I see a look of total surprise on your face when you open the door and see me standing there. You glance over my shoulder to see it there are neighbors out, but the cold weather is keeping them all indoors.
"Aren't you going to invite me in?"
"Oh, yes. Please come in. Quickly! I am shocked to find you standing at my door."
"You have not written to me as you should have, so I am here to take care of the problem."
Stepping back inside, you make way for me to enter. I stride past you and wait for you to close the door. As you turn toward me, I slap your face, causing you to take a step back.
"What do you mean by not responding to my emails? Have you no respect for common courtesy? What is wrong with you?" And then I slap you again, harder this time.
"Down on your knees! Now! And now I want to hear you apologize. "
"Forgive me," you plead. "I got busy with the kids and I have not been feeling well, and the time just slipped away." I note the redness on your cheek and the outline of my fingers on your tender flesh.
"You think that is an adequate excuse for not writing to me? Do you? Obviously you need to be trained to show respect. Get your coat, we are going out."
"I can't. I have shopping to do, and I don't know when my husband will be home!"
SLAP! "Shut up and get your coat. And for being so impudent, I want you to undress completely before putting it on. NOW!"
"But it's cold outside. And what if we run into someone I know?"
"If we run into someone you know, then you will just be naked beneath your coat. Totally and absolutely naked! Got it? Now get moving."
I follow you to the bedroom, and I watch you undress. This is our first meeting, but you undress without hesitation. Perhaps you just want to get out of the house as soon as possible, or perhaps you like the feeling of a new man eying your body as you disrobe. I like what I see, and your nakedness conjures up mental images of what is to come.
Minutes later we are in my car and heading out of your neighborhood. You seem to relax a bit as we move farther from home and the fear of being caught. Out of the corner of my eye I see you looking at me as I focus on driving on unfamiliar streets. I turn toward you, and our eyes meet. I see a little sparkle there, a clue that you are looking forward to what is about to come. But there is also a hint of uncertainty there, because you do not know what might come next.
