"Jannah, what I'm trying to say is that I have dreams, and, ahem, fantasies of you tying me up, and spanking me, and more," Geraldo Guillaume said, and he looked at Jannah Karangwa expectantly. The six-foot-tall, curvy and sexy, forty-something, dreadlocked Rwandan-Canadian woman looked at him, and smiled faintly. When the burly young Haitian told her that he had something sensitive he wanted to discuss with her, Jannah was tickled pink. This is going to be good, she thought, faintly amused.
"Do tell," Jannah Karangwa said, leaning closer to Geraldo, and she gently laid her hand on his thigh, a gesture which caused him to shift uncomfortably in his chair. Seating inside Canada's Capital University campus library in the City of Ottawa, Ontario, the two long-time friends were having a casual-seeming talk. At this hour, the library's third floor was quiet, and there were very few people around. They had enough privacy for Geraldo to unburden himself, so to speak...
Jannah Karangwa had come to the third floor of Canada's Capital University library that fine evening in early September to get a head start on her studies. Returning to college at the age of forty two, after marriage, motherhood and divorce wasn't easy, but she felt it was the right thing to do. Geraldo had been sitting at his computer, working on assignments from his criminology courses, like a good nerd. Usually, the studious, bespectacled and handsome Haitian brother seldom noticed the ladies. Which is why Jannah Karangwa had been so surprised when Geraldo signaled her to come over...
"Geraldo Guillaume is a handsome brother but sometimes I think he's gay, he doesn't check out women of any color, he's all about his books," Jannah Karangwa told herself, having noticed that the six-foot-three, handsome and perennially well-dressed, studious young Haitian had little interest in anything besides his studies. All the more reason why Jannah Karangwa was pleasantly surprised to see him look at her as she came back from the washroom. Going over to speak to Geraldo, Jannah was pleasantly surprised by what he had to say...
"Well, Jannah, my sister, over the past year or so, I've come to the conclusion that I am turned on by older, bossy Black women and that, well, I'm submissive," Geraldo said, his deep, stentorian voice adding gravity to the seriousness of the situation. Jannah Karangwa leaned back in her chair, and ran her hand through her long, neatly dreaded hair, then licked her lips pensively. This one has been torturing himself over this for quite some time, Jannah thought.
"Nothing wrong with being turned on by strong Black women, my brother, I'd rather you crave us sisters than chase them white girls like all those weak brothers out there, nothing wrong with your desires," Jannah Karangwa said, and Geraldo smiled, sighing in relief. Jannah smiled, noting his reaction. Ever since Jannah Karangwa first came to Canada's Capital University to study psychology, she'd been fascinated by campus life, and the number of handsome, educated brothers on campus appealed to her immensely.
"Thank you for understanding, Sister Karangwa, and I'm sorry for any awkwardness," Geraldo said, and he looked at her awkwardly, and then began to rise. Jannah Karangwa looked back at Geraldo, and saw doubt in those lovely chestnut eyes of his. Having said his peace, the brother was getting ready to beat a hasty retreat with his dignity intact. Well, Jannah Karangwa, an African adventuress and lifelong sensualist disguised as a church-going, hard-studying soccer mom, wasn't having any of that.
"Geraldo, sit your ass down," Jannah Karangwa all but hissed at him, and she smiled satisfactorily as Geraldo Guillaume sat down. Obedience thy name is Geraldo, Jannah thought, and she drew closer to him, totally getting into his personal space, until her face was inches from his. Geraldo looked at Jannah Karangwa, utterly mesmerized by the beautiful, enthralling, gorgeously dark-skinned Black woman before him. Jannah Karangwa looked at Geraldo the way a serpent looked at a dove before moving in for the kill...
"I am sorry, I just didn't want you to feel uncomfortable," Geraldo replied, and Jannah Karangwa smiled at her good friend/prey item, and drew closer still. Her eyes sparkled with mischief, and she flicked her tongue out, brushing it against Geraldo's lips. Not quite kissing him, but close. Geraldo blinked in surprise, and Jannah Karangwa laughed, pleased by the younger Black man's reaction...
"Well, well, Geraldo, you seem to take instruction very well, there may be hope for you yet, follow me into the stairwell," Jannah Karangwa said, and with that, she rose, and walked out of the computer area. Geraldo's gaze followed the tall, curvy, alluring Black woman's every move, and after a brief hesitation, he did as he was told. Jannah Karangwa leaned against the stairwell wall, and looked at the handsome, eager young man standing before her.
