"Rose Medley"
What a dream! That was the first thought when I woke up in my bed. I stared at the ceiling, not moving. I couldn't move since the rest of my body was still numb. It took me a moment or two for my body to start waking up. Damn! I was so tired and yet I was energized. Is that normal?
But, enough of my babbling! I turned over and I felt a warm body. I thought it was my John! I moved over and put my hands on his chest. It was strange that I didn't feel his hair on it. I guess he shaved it just cause. I moved closer and snuggled behind him. He let out a laugh when my hands go lower to his hip. As I reached his nether region, I heard a groggy chuckle.
"Linda, you're getting frisky aren't you?" He said. My eyes boggled. Did he say Linda?? I sat up and opened the sheets. But it wasn't John I saw on my bed. It was LaShawn!
"AH! WHAT THE FUCK!!!" Those were the words Paco and Juan heard in the middle of their card game. They laughed as I ran out of my room with a robe around me. "Paco! Juan! Why the hell is my brother on my bed??"
"He over exhausted himself when he put you on your bed last." Paco answered. "He must have been so tired, he just fell on the bed and fell asleep."
I straightened my new styled hair. "Okay, now for another question. What happened last night?"
"We were gonna ask you the same question." Juan replied sipping his Sobe. "You girls must have gotten major high to be naked and so content like that. Paco should know."
"Shaddup, hombre!" Paco shouted. He turned to me scratching his cheek beside his eyepatch. "Well, while we're on the subject, you wanna eat something?"
"I'm not hungry, thanks." I walked over and make myself a single glass of apple juice. Shaky hand in tow, I drank my fill and slumped on the countertop. My bro entered the kitchen yawning and scratched his head. I didn't have the nerve to talk to him. He was still groggy. He looked at Rosa's brothers and waved. "Sup?"
"Sup?" Paco and Juan greeted him back. The latter offered him a seat. "Here, man, take a seat. We'll play TexMex Poker while we discuss about the Flasher dude's ghost." Paco grinned as his brother suggested such a thing. LaShawn was up for anything. So, he grabbed himself a nice lemonade drink and settled with the other bros. "So, what's TexMex Poker?"
"It's like Texas hold 'em." Paco explained. "Juan made this up. Instead of having two cards, you get three. Plus, there are four extra suits." Paco grinned at LaShawn's face. His face was surprise. "Hold up, Pac. What do mean four extra suits?"
"Well, Mexico created a first card deck with eight suits instead of four. You remember 'Mucho Ocho', don't you?"
LaShawn blinked. "Oh right! The Mucho Ocho playing deck. My sis played those cards when she was a kid. Hey, Kens, quick, what are the names of the four suits in your deck?"
Well, that got my mind woken fully. Oh yeah, I remember seeing that thick deck. I thought it was so cool a card company came up with making more suits. I remember the suits well because that's how I first learned about shapes. "Circles, Squares, Triangles and Rectangles."
"Your sister used to have a deck, man?" Paco asked my bro. LaShawn shrugged. "Yeah, but I'm wasn't as interested in games as much as she did. She is a main wiz in card games!"
No use denying it. I loved playing my cards. It's one of the first thing I wanted to do when my friends arrive at our new place when we moved to Georgia. I met new friends there and wanted to play Go Fish with them all day long. And with my special deck, it was more fun.
Now, you know about the hearts, diamonds spades and clubs' suits, right? Two of them are red and another black. Well, with the other four suits they have a different color. Circles and square suits are gold. Triangles and Rectangles are blue. I found the colors awesome. And for the most part, I hoped for four more suits to appear, two in green and two in...off white with sparkles. Am I being greedy?
Rosa came in with her arms stretched over her head. She waved to the boys and me and made herself toast with raspberry jam. She ate in peace...at first. When she saw a woman walking in a tortoise pace, she perked up. On that trail, it was only used for people that wanted to jog. This was the first Rosa ever saw someone walking slow.
"Who's that?" She asked. I looked at her direction. "Which who?"
"That woman with the shiny orange hair. Looks like strawberry blonde."
I didn't know what she was talking about, so I walked over to the window where she stood. I saw that woman. She looked like a spring goddess with a mint green flowy dress. She had her hair in a French braid with loose strands on the edges. But her eyes gave us her attention. They were the purest blue I've ever seen. Of course, Rosa and I weren't the only people who saw her in our cabin.
"Damn! What a looker!" Juan smiled and stared at her body under her dress. We had no idea how see-through her dress was until Rosa's perverted brother pointed it out. It turned out the woman's dress was translucent. We could see her nude breasts and her lace panties. We may not see what was in them, but we can see the shape of her femininity.
"What's wrong with you, Juan!" Rosa jabbed her brother with her elbow. I did the same with my brother who stared at the woman's ass. "Have you no shame??"
Paco shuffled his card, shrugging. "They can look, Rosa, but they would never touch. But if they do, I'll make sure they will remember their lesson."
The older brother played a solitaire game as the boys looked at the window. I was curious why Paco didn't bother looking. So, I asked him. "So, you're not interested in looking?"
"Why should I look? I know I'd be disappointed. Besides, she's probably not my type."
"What is your type?" I asked. Yes, I was curious. IF he replied someone like me, I'd be flattered yet concerned for Rosa. But thank goodness I wasn't his type. Instead he answered Rosa gagged over.
"My type is someone that is edgy. I like someone is adventurous. Someone has experience something once. Or twice...but she'd be someone is also sweet and kind. You know like a watermelon."
"You want someone smooth, green and juicy?" My smart-ass side woke up! That made him laugh. "Nah, Kens. Hard and edgy, yet sweet and soft."
"That sounds like..." I remembered the conversation Rosa had with one of the Rho girls! She commented about Paco! And Rosa was appalled from the woman's comment. "Hey Rosa, who was that girl that talked to you last night?" I didn't say exactly what the woman said, but Rosa knew who I was talking about. "Yeah! Her name was Winnie!"
"Right! Winnie! That sounds like her to the T! You and she could hit it off if you want to know her better."
At that point, Yuki yawned and was ready for some avocado toast. "Good morning! Did my sister and her friends show up yet?"
"Are you expecting them this morning?" I asked her.
