GOLDIES' JOB AT JOY GARDEN MASSAGE PALACE
If you read 'Part One' of my story, you know I am here in the Texas Penitentiary, serving a death sentence for a murder I did not commit. I am innocent! The man they say I kilt was like a father to me, and his wife was way more than motherly. I keep asking the Sheriff,
"Where is the body of this man?" But I get no answer.
Why would I wish good Christian folk like him no good? There is no reason.
I swear I am innocent, but the excellent jury people of the Whipsaw, Texas, found me guilty. Unless the Governor intervenes, like the bread commercial says, "I'm toast."
Meanwhile, I'm writing this history of my brief life in the hope that it reveals my long journey to arrive here. I'm hoping this here story will reveal my innocence and show that I'm a God-fearing man.
When I stopped working part-time for Mr. Bentley and his wife, I got a job as Security Man at 'Joy Garden.' When the Employment Agency sent me over there to be interviewed, I thought this was a Chinese restaurant or a nursery. The Chinese are forever naming their places Joy Luck, Joy House, Joy Floy, and such.
To my surprise, 'Joy Garden' turned out to be a high-class massage parlor, which means they didn't just rub your back, but also whatever part of you was sticking out and in need of digital adjustment. I learned that these massage girls are some kind of sexual chiropractors. It wasn't unusual for a client to receive a happy ending. I didn't quite understand what that expression meant, but I learned later that a customer might order an entire slice of pussy pie right there on the massage table.
I thought I passed the job interview. Then the chubby Chinese man said,
"Why I should hire you. Everyone afraid of black men, but you not very black."
Fearful that I'd lose the chance at a full-time job, I piped up,
"That's what they said about Obama, and he made it to be President. I'm tough enough, and I was a champion wrestler in high school.".
"Ok, chop-chop," said the Boss, I never knew his name, but he had a thick neck and kinda looked like a frog.
"We pay you good, minimum wage. You start tomorrow. You work morning ten o'clock to eight or nine at night. If busy night, you work till no more busy. You watch safe. Never take eye off. You eat lunch with girls, but you no mess with them; you cock too big."
That comment made me grin.
"It no funny, no happy-panky. You watch safe."
"I gotcha, Boss."
"I serious, no happy-panky," said the Boss, "and you be here in time ebery day."
"Ok, Sir, I'll always be on time,"
I figured the "Sir" would end his concern, but he just ran on.
"But you no mess with girls, you big cock ruin them for other customers."
Then he put his hand on my knee,
"You cock velly big, yeah?"
I didn't answer. He let go of my knee, and quick as a Chinese firecracker, he pinches my dick right through my pants.
"Aiyee," I shout out in pain.
"Oh, you tuff guy, you no know what tuff is?"
"Ok, I gotcha, no happy-pan'ky, Yes Sir."
"Ok, you go now, come tomorrow."
So I got up and walked out. My dick was still hurting like hell as I got out to the street, and the hot sun was making me wish I'd worn my plastic sunglasses that I bought at the dollar store. I tried to adjust my burning cock through my pants without looking like I was playing with myself. Some old lady walked past and frowned at me, thinking I was jerking off.
I didn't quite understand all the things the Boss said, but the gist of it was, watch the safe and don't fuck with the girls. That was Ok with me. I wasn't gonna say nothin with my new Boss about that stinging dick pinch. If'n I was going to buy that red motorbike I saw at the Used Motor Emporium last week, I was in need of money this job promised.
When I arrived at work the next day, the Boss handed me a brown paper bag. Inside was a gray belted security jacket with a patch on the side and a belt with a red can of pepper spray in a leather holster.
"Here, tuff guy, you put this on-- now."
I did as he said, the jacket sleeves were a little short, and there was a moth hole under the left arm even though the clothes smelled of mothballs, but the jacket fit. I buckled on the belt and felt official, like the guy in that mall cop movie.
"You sit here now, in front of the greeting room," the froggy Boss guy pointed at a worn brown oak chair. I sat down. Then he turned and pointed,
"There in corner is safe. Safe have a slot in top. Girl collect money from massage client. She put house money in envelope and time stamp it, he pointed at a time stamp machine on the wall above the safe. You watch safe, all time you watch, never take eye off safe, you no let anyone near safeβ that you job."
"Yes, sir, never take eyes off, I gotcha."
He walked right up to me and stared into my eyes, them flicked his fist in my face.
I flinched, remembering the cock sting.
"Oh you tuff guy, velly tuff guy, and he laughed."
So I started work, it wasn't bad job, just sit'n that hard chair and or stand'n up when your ass got to hurt'n.
My job was to greet the customers. If there no girl was at the desk, I'd tell the client to ring the little chrome bell on the table, and presto, a girl would appear. She'd ask the customer how long a massage he wanted, take his money, put the money in an envelope, time-stamp it, and insert the envelope into the slot on top of safe. All pretty simple.
