It was nearly three days later when they received another visit. Kelly, by this time, had just started to allow herself the first glimmer of hope. Hope that maybe Smith, having realised what a dangerous game he was playing, had decided to quit while he was ahead and leave them alone. But, she instinctively knew, on hearing that fateful knock at the door, that all such hopes were now dashed.
"Hello again Kelly," said Smith cheerfully, "alright if I come in?" But it was not a question that he required an answer to. "Thank you so much."
As he made his own way through to the kitchen, he heard the scurrying of feet as someone dashed out of an adjacent door and into the back corridor.
"Carly's not here," said Kelly.
"Is that so," replied Smith, a note of sarcasm in his voice.
"Look Mr Smith, we've held up our part of the bargain."
"Not quite yet, I don't think. I really want to see her again. I thought maybe I might take some pictures to remember you both by."
"I don't think so."
"Not even if I promise to put in all the paperwork approving your application this afternoon?"
A moment's pause. "You promise? Really promise this time?"
"Yes I really do promise."
"Look, you don't need involve Carly any more, please. She's really very upset after yesterday. I don't think she could go through that again."
"But you agreed?"
"Well maybe there's something else we can do instead."
"Such as?"
They both looked at each other for a moment while Kelly tried to summon up the courage to make her proposal
"Such as...well...how about me?" Her voice cracked as she spoke the words.
Smith looked at her curiously. "You - naked?"
"Uh-huh."
And what makes you think I want to look at your fat old body?"
She stared at him without blinking, again summoning up the courage to speak the unthinkable. "Well for one thing, I'm pretty hairy too -- and..." she struggled to get the words out, "and I smell -- very strong - I know you like that."
"Yes I do," he said, starting to show some interest. "Where exactly do you smell the most?"
"You know; err around my pussy...and..."
"Yes Mrs hall, and where else?"
"and my ass I suppose."
"Is it all hairy like your daughter's - your asshole I mean?"
Kelly stared back at him a moment.
"Mrs Hall?"
"Err, yes."
"Yes?"
"Yes. Well, actually more so."
"Mm, I image it probably is, isn't it? You're starting to get my attention. Tell me more about what all those curly Afro pubes look like between your legs. I assume they are very curly aren't they -- like hundreds of tightly wound, coils of black wire? Am I right? What do you look like naked? Convince me to accept your proposition!"
Kelly looked down for a moment, stealing herself against the incredible embarrassment of putting into words something which very few men - and certainly no white man - had ever seen. She took a deep breath and started.
"OK, I can tell that I'm hairy pretty much everywhere round my private parts; I don't shave at all."
Kelly saw Smith surreptitiously sliding his right hand down inside his trouser pocket.
"And it's not how you imagine. I suppose the hairs are very wiry, but not tight little curls - much bigger, thicker ones. My mound is completely covered..."
"Go on..."
"with a thick bush of black hair," she continued, " and it carries on right up to my tummy, almost, and all around the tops of my legs - right in between - and then up into my bottom..."
Smith was now staring at her groin, transfixed by her words. "So...err, how far?"
"How far?"
"Up into your bottom I mean? How far do the hairs grow up your crack?" he blurted.
Kelly's confidence was growing a little as she realised she now had him under her spell. "Everywhere mister. Like under my arms here." Kelly raised up her left arm to reveal a thick, unruly mass of curly black hairs. The smell of her sweaty pits wafted across Smith's face and his nose instinctively flared in appreciation. "The whole of my ass crack is full of hairs just like this; they even grow out on my ass cheeks a little."
"Go on, where else?"
"You mean in other places?"
"Yep -- do you have any hairs growing in other unusual places?"
"Well...I guess I have lots of tiny hairs all over the place...I have some stubble down my lower legs...and a few hairs on my breasts and even some on my toes."
"Really? You have hairy tits and toes? How disgusting. And you never shave? You must look quite a sight when you're naked."
"No one ever sees me naked. Not even my daughter. I never got naked, even in front of other women in the changing rooms when I was at school."
"So you've never taken your clothes off in front of strangers?"
"No never. Even when my husband was here we only did it the dark mostly."
