Argie's Unusual Patient & John's Peculiar Conquest
Chapter 7 and 8
A week later, at Dr. Coughlin's, Argie has quit her boring real estate broker job to start albeit slowly, working as a therapist under the tutoring of not only Dr. Coughlin, but his strikingly beautiful assistant, Vanna Bright.
"You're doing very well, from what I've seen," Vanna told an ebullient Argie Franck.
Argie had just finished counseling a young man with erection problems, but hadn't had sex with him yet.
"I just wish that I could be of more help to him,' she said.
"It takes time and familiarity, Argie. Please keep that foremost in mind when dealing with patients.
"Time, of course," Argie repeated, trying to memorize Vanna's advice as she had so many other tidbits and pieces of information since starting at Dr. Coughlin's.
"I'd also like you to talk with a former therapist, who is also married. She . . . I'm sorry, her name is Nadine, but we all call her Naddie," Vanna shrugged, and then wiped a stand of dark hair from where it hung just over her eye.
"She can help you with her perspective on dealing with sexual therapy with one's spouse."
"I don't have a problem in that regard," Argie said quickly.
"I know, I know," Vanna replied. "But it is early in the game. Things happen . . . that I can
guarantee you."
"Like . . ." Argie said, hoping to elicit a response with more meaning to it.
"Talk to Naddie, dear, she'll be very helpful. Here's her number. She should be available this morning," with that said, Vanna waltzed away into Dr. Coughlin's office.
'He'll have her pants off in thirty seconds,' Argie told herself, as she headed to a phone in a corner office that would afford her a modicum of privacy.
Naddie picked up on the third ring. Argie and she hit it off right from the start. Initially, she was too clinical in her approach to the therapy sessions, but as the conversation developed, she revealed that she loved the sexual aspects of the job even more than the clinical parts.
Of course, Argie thought she felt much the same, although she had yet to have sex with any client. Despite this, the two women quickly bonded.
When Naddie confessed that she kept her husband informed, and that he "Got off knowing I'm having sex with other guys," Argie nearly got off herself. She resolved to tell John about some of her encounters, but not all. Certainly not those with Dr. Coughlin, which she hoped would be often.
Argie was jolted from her sexual daydream when Naddie told her just how much she was making working for Dr. Coughlin.
"Did I hear you say $3000 a month?" Argie gasped.
"Yeah, right, and for only forty hours, well mostly, sometimes I work, if you want to call it work, a bit longer. But never over 50 hours in a single month."
"Wow!" Argie gasped, as visions of sugarplums danced in her head.
"Some patients, or should I say, clients are generous themselves. For instance, last week was my birthday and Jerry . . . oops, Mr. X., brought me some really sexy underwear. Of course, I modeled it for him, and then he fucked me. I kept the outfit on for the rest of the day, and showed them to Mickey . . . that's my hubby, as soon as he got home. He especially liked the gooey spot on my panties from the guy's cum. He made me tell him exactly how it got there. Then he added a gooey spot of his own."
"He doesn't get jealous?" Argie asked.
"No. In fact he loves it. It always gets him excited. Whenever I get fucked by a client I can always count on getting fucked again that night by Mickey. It's like a double-header. And, once I got laid by two different clients. So I get home and shared the news with Mickey. He's so horny he gave it to me twice in a row.
"Wow!" Argie exclaimed, "I find it hard to believe that you tell your husband everything. I've only hinted about what I'm doing to my guy."
"I understand Argie," Naddie said. "I felt the same way until Mickey found out I'd been having an affair. This was before I started working for Dr. Coughlin. In fact, Mickey caught me with a neighbor in our own bed. I thought he'd be furious. Instead, as soon as the guy ran out the door, Mickey jumped my bones. I got fucked like I've never been fucked before. He said he didn't understand it himself, but he got very turned on seeing me with another man. Now he wants to watch me with my clients, but I don't think that's a good idea."
Knowing Naddie had reached some form of agreement with her husband, Argie pushed the envelope, asking, "So how have you resolved that?"
"We haven't yet. But if the right situation comes up, we'll do it. We talked about it a couple times and we're both fine with the idea."
"That's incredible," Argie said, "I envy you."
"Your husband isn't the jealous type is he, Argie?"
"Well, yes and no. He's been seeing other women forever. He's kept it secret of course, but I found this tape . . . a kind of diary he started for his shrink, and found out about all of them. He didn't like it though when I went out and found myself a guy."
"How many?"
"What?"
"How many women did he have?"
"Dozens, maybe a hundred or more, I'm not sure. The parts I listened to left off when he was in college."
"Argie?"
"Yeah?"
"Don't get mad at me, but if you didn't know, were you fucking around too?"
"No. That started afterward. I let a guy pick me up, and we started seeing each other a couple, three times a week. I blew up at him one day, his name is John by the way, and confronted him. We went to see the shrink together, and he joined Sex Addicts Anonymous afterward to try making amends. "
"Sounds like he's trying," Naddie said.
"Trying my ass," Argie cried out, her voice raising an octave or two. "He told me he screwed some bitch at his first meeting. But we're talking, and trying to get through the whole mess without getting divorced. I do love him and really believe he loves me too."
"So you joined Dr. Coughlin to get even, huh?"
"Not to get even. I want to understand his so called compulsion, and that's going to take time. I wanted to get even somehow, you know, what's good for the goose . . . anyway, it was John's shrink put me onto being a therapist while we were discussing how I might better cope with his problem. Can you beat that?"
"No shit!"
