As I peered through the darkness of the parking lot and towards the bushes where the other white husbands were hiding, my feelings of curiosity grew even more intense.
"Richard? Come on already." one of the weaker, white husbands yelled in a heavy whisper.
"Yeah. Hurry up." another whispered voice shouted from the darkness.
Tentatively, I minced my way towards the group as I looked over my shoulder with every other step. I couldn't understand the reason why this group of 8 white husbands were cowering behind the bushes at the edge of the parking lot and wanting to speak to me at this particular time of the night.
By now, there were only nine of us white husbands left in the condo community. I realized this and the ultra demoralizing fact that it was now 4 of the other white husbands who had already fled our once peaceful small community. It truly felt as if this ONE dominant black man was "picking us off" one by one, like some sort of Black Sniper would be picking off his weak, white prey. Only, he was doing so with his superior black masculinity and using our fear of him to add an even more demoralizing exclamation point. He was doing so by intimidating each and every one of us white husbands and taking our beautiful wives for his own.
It was a humbling, humiliating and revolting thought as I began walking towards the bushes.
As I reached the shadows of the large bushes that framed the parking lot entrance leading to the pool area I noticed that it was Kevin at the front of the group doing most of the talking.
"K-Kevin?" I squealed.
"What are all of you doing out here?" I asked, nervously.
Suddenly, I grew even more scared. The looks on all the other white men's faces were ones of panic and fear. We were now a group of 9 white husbands cowering together behind some bushes in the middle of the night. We were cowering and talking like a bunch of sissy school girls.
"What are you guys doing out here?" I repeated, adapting to the same heavy whispering tone.
"The meeting. The investors meeting. Didn't you get the memo?" Bradley spoke out.
"W-What meeting? What are you talking about?" I asked, concerned yet rather annoyed.
"I didn't hear about any meeting, and here at this time in the middle of the night behind some stupid bushes? What the heck is going on?" I stammered.
"No, no the meeting isn't here. It''s in the gym." Kevin said.
It was then that Kevin explained.
He explained that Tra'mon had called, what he termed "an investors meeting" precisely at 1:00 a.m., and this meeting was to be held in the small workout center of the condo building. I glanced down to the expensive Movado watch on my left wrist to see that it was 11 minutes before one. Suddenly, I felt very nervous.
"W-Well, I didn't know about any m-meeting?" I quivered.
"I-I didn't get any memo." I cried.
"W-Why are we all standing out here then?" I probed.
Kevin continued his explanation.
"Well, we thought we'd get together and talk about it first. Ya' know, talk before we go into this meeting. I mean, we just don't know what to expect." He said, worriedly.
"I-I don't want to go inside there." one white husband cried.
"Me neither." another husband chimed in.
"I'm not g-going." a third husband stated, nearly crying out loud.
"Gosh! I, uh, I really do not want to face him. Not tonight. I'm scared." yet another husband sniveled.
Kevin went on to say that the memo instructed all of us white husbands to bring our check books. He added that they all felt that the young, black stud would be asking for more money. They were all very confused about what to do. The group had no desire to invest again, yet they all felt like they were going to be "pressured" into it by Tra'mon.
"M-More money?" I asked, in utter disbelief.
"H-He ... Well, I just d-don't know? Are you sure?" I asked in a panicked tone.
"I don't know. Maybe?" Bradley returned. "I just don't know what he will want from us now."
That is when I looked into the fearful eyes of the other 8 white husbands. We were all quite intimidated and afraid of this young, black man. We were literally just like a bunch of "pussies" hiding in the bushes. We were like big cowards huddled together and talking about what to do when the "school bully" came around. None of us had any desire to face him, nor did we want any part of his so called "investment opportunities" for his new business. Not anymore. Not after he had been intimidating us and taking our wives out all the time. Not after we had all but known that he had fucked all of our wives before, or was still fucking them. We just didn't know. I was quite sure that all of us wanted to "bow out" of our investment by now.
Yet, we were all scared and timid creatures that felt less like men. Even as a group, all of us white wimps were quite aware that this one much younger black stud could very easily beat us up. There seemed to be no resistence or fight left in any of us in this group. There was just talk.
We had less than ten minutes before the scheduled meeting and we were all huddled closely together talking about this one single "bully" type of a black man who had been so "mean" to us. All of us felt so defeated by him and his bold, in your face actions since he arrived in the community. It was almost surreal how pathetic we all felt.
During this group conversation by us cowardly white wimpy husbands, I discovered or reaffirmed that Tra'mon had "bullied" or "slapped" or "beaten up" all of us at one time or another. This humiliating fact was confirmed now.
Furthermore, he continued to intimidate every one of us consistently and had "fucked" all of our wives. Or, so we overwhelmingly suspected he did. The others did not know how many times this might have occurred, yet they were all convinced that it did. I can only speculate the others had "very good reason" to believe this. It had to be true.
"Maybe they really did know?" I asked myself.
