Friday after work, Johnny and Gregg met for drinks.
After they had ordered beers, Johnny asked, "So tell me, why are 'feeling good? Did you and Maria get back together?"
"No. Never happen."
"You're dating one of her girl friends?"
"No, she poisoned the well. Told them all I was a pervert. She told them I tied her up, spanked her, did her ass, had threesomes." He shook his head.
"Did you?"
"Well, yeah. But we never did anything she didn't enjoy, but that's not what she's saying now."
"So you found someone new?"
"Well, that's it. Yesterday was my birthday."
"Hey, Happy Birthday. Drinks are on me."
"Thanks. Anyway, it was my birthday, I didn't have a girl friend. I got an escort."
"A hooker?"
"For a thousand for the night, I don't think you can call her a hooker." "A thousand?"
"Yeah, but it was worth every penny. We went to dinner, then back to my place, had drinks and made out. We started on the couch and moved to the bedroom. She did things I had never thought of. Turned me every way but loose. I never came that many times in one night in all my life."
"So, it was good?"
"It was great. The only thing is, I can't afford to see her every night. That would be thirty thousand a month."
"Hey, marry her."
Gregg laughed, "I thought about it. I asked her, jokingly. She laughed, said she didn't want to quit working. I told her she could keep working, just come home to me. She still said No."
"So what are you going to do?"
"I don't know. I can't imagine finding a woman as exciting as her."
"Well, I'll tell you. I had a girl friend in Saigon. One night she brought home a girl friend and I thought that sex with the two of them was the greatest sex I would ever have. But then I met Jenny, my wife, and sex with her is even better because we love each other. In fact, I'm going home to her." Johnny tossed two twenties on the counter, clapped Gregg on the shoulder. "Again, Happy birthday. See you Monday."
