"Tyreese," Said Jun, his redheaded girlfriend indicating towards the luggage holding lady in the low cut top, "this is Anura Chauggante-Bouilloire."
"Sup." The tall blackman said with a large paw of a hand outstretched.
Anura set down her bags to grasp his hand. Tyreese tried to pick out her words, however she spoke so fast he didn't catch a word of it.
He did however get a good look at the petite woman before him. Her skin was so white that Tyreese was convinced she was chiseled from ivory. Her platinum blonde hair was cut short and topped with a circular hat. Her eyelids were painted a very dark shade over her dark blue eyes. Her lips were painted a very bright red.
She wore over-sized blue Jean overalls and a black bra like top underneath that strained to keep her bust in. About her neck were several necklaces, that bounced in and out of her cleavage.
"Uh..." The redheaded Korean girl said interrupting her friend gushing over her man, "let's get these bags into the car."
"Oh yeah!" Exclaimed Anura excitedly.
"I'll take these." Tyreese said picking up the bags.
"Such a gentleman!" Anura said winking at Jun.
Jun gave a fake smile then shot an angry glance at Tyreese, he just rolled his eyes and mouthed 'hippies ' back at his fuming girlfriend.
The ride to the cottage was not the quiet journey Tyreese was hoping for, the two women chatted and laughed so much he half-wished he were in a war zone and not stuck in whirlwind of female noise.
As Tyreese pulled up to the cottage he rented for the week, he couldn't help but feel like he was being watched. A quick glance about revealed no threats, however when he looked in the rear view mirror, he could see Anura staring at him with her dark blue eyes.
Growing up in Detroit, Tyreese knew that reading eyes could mean the difference between life and death. Anura's eyes were saying something he could decipher, leaving him unnerved.
Grabbing the bags and walking to the cottage he spoke, "You guys can get settled in, I'll fire up the BBQ."
"What are you making?" The ivory coloured woman asked cheerfully.
"Dogs!" beamed Tyreese, "They ain't Coney, but you'll like 'em!"
Anura made a sour face at his words, Jun shrugged in reply, to which the two women started laughing hysterically.
"Hippies..." Mumbled a befuddled Tyreese.
Later over dinner Tyreese was lost again, it seemed as if the two women spoke a different language!
"We need to get some tofu for tomorrow!" Anura said.
"Muffin mix too!" Declared Jun.
"Eggs!!!" Screamed Anura.
The shriek The women made had Tyreese cringing! It was louder and more threatening than any police siren he'd heard before!
"I'm gunna do these dishes." He said excusing himself.
When he reached for Anura's plate he could see she was giving him that look again. This time however he was convinced she was pushing her tits together with her elbows, causing them to swell forth from her top.
"He's so amazing!" Tyreese heard as he walked away causing him to blush.
"He sure is!" Beamed a proud Jun in a conspiratorial tone.
Tyreese tried to enjoy some quiet doing dishes, however he could hear the women quite clearly despite their hushed voices.
"Tell me all about him!" Asked an excited Anura.
"Well, what haven't I told you already?" Jun said.
"What's he like in the sack!" The white girl asked.
Jun laughed as she playfully pushed her friend away.
When he couldn't hear the reply Tyreese held up a pan to catch their reflection in it. He could see Jun whispering and Anura giving him that look again.
Afterwards they started a fire and enjoyed some beers while listening to the radio and admiring the burning wood.
"Sorry about the tunes." He said. "I didn't want to lug all my CD's, but now I regret it."
"I don't mind the all the country music." Anura said. "It really sets the ambience!"
"Yeah!" Jun said sounding as if she didn't want to be left out of the discussion.
"How did you guys score this place?" Anura asked over the fire. "It's huge! And on the water!"
Tyreese knew how to lie fast, and re-direct smoothly. On the streets it was the only way to survive both the gangs and the police.
"I booked a one bedroom with a pull out couch for you," he said to the on-looking women. "but when I called the other day they said they'd given it away to someone else!"
"What did you do?" Asked an enthralled Anura.
"I gave 'em hell!" Declared a proud Tyreese.
The two women roared with laughter at that. Tyreese felt like a ring master as he went on.
"I demanded they give me an upgrade!" He stated standing up to shake a fist, beer spilling all about.
"So they gave you a three bedroom with a dock, boat, and... a basketball court?" Asked a confused Anura.
"You see," Tyreese said not wanting to admit that he had come across some money and owned shares in the company, "I can be persuasive... very persuasive."
He winked at Anura, then regretted it, she blushed redder than the burning logs. Thankfully Jun was taking a swig from her drink and missed the exchange.
"That's incredible!" Said Anura. "Why didn't they just refund you?"
Tyreese didn't want to go off script and like a good ring master he was ready for the next act.
"You guys ever swim at night?" He asked.
"This place really is big, how did you do it?" Anura questioned hoping to stay on track.
"Like skinny-dip?" Jun said unknowingly saving her man.
"Yeah, that." He replied thankfully.
"Nope!" Jun said with a giggle, "never!"
"I call shenanigans!" Shouted Anura. "You did!"
"I did not!" Replied Jun.
"Right after prom we all did right under the Golden Gate Bridge!" Announced Anura proudly.
"Oh I went straight home that night." Replied a sad Jun.
"Party pooper!" Accused Anura.
Jun stuck out her tongue, Tyreese adjusted his shorts, that tongue had left him panting many a time. Looking up he could see Anura eating it all up with that piercing glance.
"Ever have sex in the water?" Asked Anura.
"No!" Yelled Jun in a drunken slur.
"Me neither!" Said Tyreese between laughs when Anura pointed at him.
"How about you?" Jun asked her friend.
"Yes!" Was her reply.
Tyreese was glad he fixed himself, he was starting to get hard.
"Who?" Demanded Jun.
"A lady never tells," Anura said looking at Tyreese before giving him a wink.
"Come on!" Pleaded Jun.
