It was midway through the spring semester of my sophomore year that I had one of the most memorable weekend experiences of my career as a prostitute.
By this time, I had learned how to play the game for college grant money. Because my father had died in the service, and my mom was incarcerated, I was considered an orphan, and entitled to a fairly significant sum of federal money to attend college.
That is, Lyn Gibson was considered an orphan, and without a legal guardian. By this time, I had learned how to live dual identities, and had become quite comfortable in both roles.
As Sophie, I could be a true wanton slut, the raving whore known far and wide for her sexual prowess. As Lyn, I could be a quiet, serious student, a nice girl who came to class every day, took copious notes, made good grades and didn't say boo to anyone.
Where I grew up isn't far from the Missouri River, on the south side of that wide, muddy stream. Columbia is on the north bank, and that made it easy for me to make certain that our business stayed oriented away from Columbia. I wanted as little chance as possible of someone at college recognizing me as Sophie.
Because Uncle Bill liked to account for where "our" money was going, I continued to use that for my college tuition and fees, and the grant money I received from the government I quietly put into an interest-bearing savings account at a bank in Columbia.
At the time, I simply thought of it as building a nest egg for when I graduated. As it turned out, it practically saved my life.
I guess it's a fair question to ask why, if I was getting federal grant money to attend college, did I stay in the prostitution business with my Uncle Bill? After all, that was supposed to be reason for me to get into the business in the first place.
I could have left him, used the grant money for college, and had a normal life as a normal person doing the things normal college students do - things like concerts and ball games, all of which I missed out on.
I know I've asked myself that question many times in the years since I left Missouri. I think the answer is fairly complicated, and has a lot to do with my psychological makeup.
For one thing, the money was very seductive. We made a boatload of money, and Bill and I both came to appreciate what it could do for us.
For another, I believed what Bill and others had always said about me, that I was born to be a whore. I was simply living down to everyone's expectations.
Still another answer was that the people I encountered while working for Uncle Bill were, for better or worse, my entire social life. I felt much more comfortable with the farmers and mechanics I dealt with at Bill's Place than I did with the snooty college types I encountered at Mizzou.
And, finally, there was the sex. I was getting more good sex than a typical 19-year-old has any right to get. True, a lot of it was ho-hum, wham-bam fucking, but a lot of it was really hot, and, frankly, I enjoyed it. I was getting my deep-seated sexual needs fulfilled in a very big way, and that would have been a difficult thing to give up at that point in my life.
At any rate, as 1989 turned into 1990, and my scarlet reputation grew, we began to take on more and more weekenders, those special events I mentioned earlier.
For a thousand dollars, you could buy my services for the entirety of Saturday and into Sunday. This was where we really got into the big time, and made some serious bucks.
Actually, it was Mr. Charley, the sheriff, who started turning some upper-echelon business our way for these events. The weekenders were a good way for the upscale types to buy the services of a whore without being seen at an out-of-the-way, redneck beer joint like Bill's Place.
A thousand dollars was chump change to some of these people. It was worth it for them to buy a girl who would come to their home, or anywhere else they wanted, who would do anything they told her to do, all night long - and I do mean anything - and who could be depended on to be discreet.
As I've said, I was a very good whore. I was always clean and healthy, the benefit of monthly visits to a Jeff City gynecologist, and I had a perfectly filthy mind. There wasn't much I wasn't willing to do, and as word spread, my services came to be much in demand.
Over the four years I was a whore, I spent weekends with bankers, lawyers, county supervisors, the mayor of one nearby town, law-enforcement officers, school administrators, anyone whose reputation would take a big hit if it got out that they were using the services of a prostitute.
And it wasn't just men, either. I spent a lot of weekends with upper-class women who were either closet lesbians or who were just adventurous and wanted to experience sex with another woman. I had been trained by some of the best lezzies around when I'd been at the juvenile school in Oklahoma, and I knew how to drive a woman crazy with lust.
Then there were the couples, and this was where I had the experience I'm about to relate. Earl Johnson, and his wife Jeanine, were an older couple in Jeff City, and they proved to be two of the kinkiest - and best - clients I ever had.
Earl was a prominent banker and Jeanine was an elementary school principal. He was about 50, and she was in her early 40s. Earl was somewhat portly, a barrel-chested fellow slightly under six feet tall, with brown hair that was slightly receding in front.
Jeanine had some sort of ethnic background, Filipino or maybe Native American, but whatever it was, it gave her gorgeous, exotic looks, with huge dark eyes, full lips and thick, straight jet-black hair that she wore to the middle of her back. She was what you would call chunky, but she wasn't gobby fat, in that she carried her weight well, and she was possessed of the biggest, most succulent tits I've ever seen.
It was a bitterly cold, gray mid-February day when I drove to their large, gated home on the outskirts of the city. Jeanine greeted me warmly about 3 o'clock that afternoon, escorted me in and introduced me to her husband.
She was dressed fairly casually, in a long skirt and a knit shirt with a low neck that revealed an ample amount of her stunning cleavage. I had dressed for warmth, in a wool sweater, with a tight, long-sleeved T-shirt underneath, jeans, boots, and my long coat.
