"The kid needs a car," his ex told him, "She's almost seventeen and she needs to be able to get around."
"No she doesn't, she has the awareness of a gummi worm, it will take her about two days to get into an accident. She has shown zero responsibility to this point in her life. I do not support this decision and will not be contributing to this car fund."
"Can we meet at a restaurant and talk about this."
"Um, no thank you," he said dismissively.
"Look," the ex said, "we need to talk more about this, face to face."
"No, no we don't."
"I think we do, I'll just come over Friday night and we'll talk, your current wife," you could hear the disdain in her voice, "won't be there, will she?"
"I don't want you to come over, and I'm not interested in talking to you."
"Then tell me you'll go halfsies on the car,"
"No, we had this discussion already,"
"Ok, see you Friday,"
"I'm not letting you in."
"That's fine, we can talk in the front yard, I can stay on the access road even, I don't have to even go on your property, just the two of us." His house was secluded and the 'driveway' was technically a public access road.
"I'm not coming out of the house."
"Oh, please, you're going to hide in there from little old me."
"Don't come over," he yelled as he went to push the button on the cell phone, it was so much less satisfying than slamming a phone into a cradle, 1980's style. As he dropped the call, he heard her voice one last time.
"Friday,"
That evening, he told his wife, his Mademoiselle about the upcoming confrontation that the woman was forcing, and she simply gave him 'the look', "I know I know, I'm not going to give her anything. I give her too much as it is, I know. I don't know what she thinks she's going to gain." It was hard to sound very commanding as he knelt in front of her naked but for his collar, leash and cuffs.
"Why wouldn't she, you have always paid more than you needed to."
"Well, I mean, I wanted to support my kid."
"And you do, your child is here half of the time, that's joint custody, despite having half custody, you still pay child support. Your kid is well taken care of, you pay for the dentist, doctors, you get her half of her back-to-school clothes. And, as you said, doesn't have the responsibility to have her own car."
"I know, I just- "
She cut him off with a gentle slap to the cheek, "Shush my pet." She said surprisingly gently, "who did you give the pants to my pet?"
"You Mademoiselle," he looked down.
She immediately reached down and pulled his face back up, forcing him to look into her eyes. "And who makes the rules?"
"You do Mademoiselle." He said as he felt his cock start to stir.
She tugged on his leash and pulled him to about an inch away from her face, "and who is in charge of this household?"
"You are Mademoiselle," he blinked at her.
