I made it to the airport in Wilmington Wednesday morning just in time to check by bags and head through security. I traveled with a large suitcase that I checked, a backpack which had to be checked also, my carry on computer bag, and my handbag. I didn't really care anymore about the various toys, vibrators and webcam while going through security in my Burberry handbag. I carried them on so I knew they were always safe with me even though I knew I was a target for extra screening. As suspected, I heard the male voice call out as I was putting my shoes back on.
"Bag check." said the officer. I knew it was my handbag. I looked up as the male officer asked "Is this yours?"
"Yes" I said.
"Leave the rest of your things and follow me." he ordered. I did as he said knowing what he was about to discover in my handbag. It was a large bag and filled with my toys. He led me to a private screening area so he could remove the items from my bag. One by one, he removed my dildos, vibrators, and webcam. He looked at me as he unscrewed the tips revealing the batteries inside. "Sorry, I have to make sure these only contain batteries" he said.
I smiled and replied, "Take your time."
When he was finished with the bag check he couldn't help himself by saying, "You have quite a collection."
Again, I smiled and said, "That's a drop in the bucket. A girl's gotta keep herself entertained, ya know?" as he handed by bag back to me.
He smiled and said, "Have a safe flight."
I thanked him and gathered my things so I could make it to my gate on time.
I arrived in Houston with no delays going through Atlanta, but it was midweek. Had it been a Friday, I could have been stuck in Atlanta for hours trying to change planes. I got my luggage to my car which was no longer an easy task and got home to find Bailey waiting for me on the couch watching TV and drinking wine.
She quickly helped me in with my luggage and said, "I will get your clothing to the cleaners first thing in the morning."
I told her, "Relax and let's just sit and enjoy some wine together." With my luggage in my bedroom and Bailey and I on the couch with a bottle of wine, we muted the TV and began talking about what had happened with her husband.
"When I caught him, I was actually trying to surprise him with a quick romantic picnic for lunch. His boss' assistant told me to go ahead and wait in his office and she would go find him. Well she didn't have to find him because I did. I found him mid thrust inside his secretary right on top of the desk. The pictures of me and the pictures of our family were just strewn across the floor, like they'd been obstacles in the way. Joanie, he just looked up and said, 'Oh hi Honey.' What the fuck?" she asked.
I looked at her, watching for any sign that she was going to get emotional about it. She stayed strong and I thought that was a good sign. It meant she'd done her crying already and was now at the pissed off stage.
"What happened next?" I asked as I slid closer to her on the couch.
"He just pulled out and sat down in his chair and lit a cigarette. Marcy started to sit up but I told her to stay put, I wouldn't be long. Then I went to the desk and set the picnic basket on it right next to her. Well I actually kind of sort of dropped it there from about six inches above the desk. It made a nice thud and clang." Bailey said, giggling. "I opened the basket and took out the plates of food and set them on the desk. I went back to the basket and brought out the bottle of red wine. Donny asked what I was doing and I told him I had brought him lunch, but since he was already having his dessert, I thought I'd go ahead and set out the rest for him to enjoy after I left his ass. He asked if we could talk about it. I told him that he'd just done all the talking he needed to do. Then I popped the cork on the bottle and proceeded to pour it over his head, all over his computer, and dumped the rest of it on Marcy's clothes. Then I dropped the bottle on his dick and turned around and walked to the door. I opened it wide and screamed into the office that there was free food for everyone in Donny's office. I made sure there was a good sized crowd headed my way and left right as they got to Donny's door." Bailey finished her story and downed the rest of her wine and then she looked at me and smiled.
"You had no idea there was anything going on?" I asked, smiling along with her because I knew she was going to be alright.
Bailey said, "No, I had no idea and to make it worse, she has been his secretary for several years. She has been to my home, seen my children, and had dinner with me."
I just shook my head and said, "Now do you know why I am single?"
She just said, "I am guilty as well for messing around with you Joanie. The only difference is I haven't been caught." Bailey was right and I needed more wine so I opened another bottle for us after that statement.
"Well after your phone call, I made one of my own. I want you to call this man." I told her as I handed her Mike Taylor's business card. "He helped me out a few years ago and he became a good friend in the process. I told him a little of your situation and he'd be glad to help you like he helped me. He's one of the best in the state and he's right here in town." I said, looking her in the eye.
"Joanie, I can't afford a divorce right now." Bailey said, sadly.
"Bailey, you don't have to worry about that part of it. Arrangements have already been made." I said as I reached out and softly caressed her cheek.
"You are so good to me. Thank you. I'll call him in the morning." she said.
Changing the subject, Bailey wanted to know how I got the contract pricing so low on the medical supplies. It was the hot topic at the office.
I asked, "What do you mean by 'Hot Topic'?"
She said, "Randall and the other Vice Presidents are furious. They have been trying to figure out how you did it. Randall and Scott have been trying to get the pricing down for months and now you did it in a matter of days. You're the big hero for the company and getting recognized by the company President. He is flying in from headquarters in Oklahoma City specifically for the meeting Friday."
