Like a lot of young men out there, I'm fascinated by hot older women. Getting at them, however, isn't easy. They tend to see us coming. What's a young man supposed to say to a sexy lady who is older than him, definitely more experienced and has probably heard every line he likely thinks up? If I knew that, I'd be one lucky man. The name is Jean-Baptiste Armand, and I'm a young black man of Haitian descent living in the Beechwood area of metropolitan Ottawa, Ontario.
I caught the bus to the Saint Laurent Mall, intent on depositing a tax refund cheque from the Canadian government at my local bank. I forgot to give the Canadian government a direct deposit form at tax time, so now, every month, when it comes time to receive those Ontario Trillium tax credits, I get them via cheque instead of direct deposit. Sucks, but hey, such is life. I mailed the government a direct deposit form a while ago, but they still haven't updated my file in their computer systems.
In preparation for my trip to the mall, I dressed pretty dapper. Clothes make them man, and all that. I like to dress fly. Long-sleeved light brown silk shirt, black silk pants and black timberland shoes. A lot of brothers dress sloppy, thinking it's cool, but to me, thug life isn't chic. Besides, I'm a fourth-year student in the business administration program at Carleton University. I'm getting ready for the real world and the workplace, so I might as well start dressing like a professional.
Anyhow, I went to the Toronto Dominion Bank and deposited the cheque, and the pretty Indian-looking gal behind the counter smiled and wished me a good day before I headed out. Such a cutie, I thought on my way out. I have a thing for brown chicks from places like India and the Arab world. The problem is that girls from those regions of the world tend to be culturally brainwashed and uninterested in dating outside their race.
Personally, I think we're all human and any person can date or marry a person of any color or gender. When my cousin Yves Armand came out as gay, I was the only person in our uptight Haitian family to support him. Live and let live, I say. Anyhow, I walked out of the TD bank and headed downstairs to catch the bus, forgetting that the downstairs bus station at Saint Laurent Mall was closed due to construction. Sighing, I went back upstairs to catch any bus heading to Hurdman Station.
I headed to the upstairs bus station, and waited in the hot sun for the buses to come by. Transportation has always been hellish in the City of Ottawa, and OC Transpo, our bus and train system, is notoriously unreliable. Still, I was quietly fuming in the summer heat, hoping the deodorant body spray I put on before leaving my apartment didn't wear out. I was standing there when I saw a tall, dark-haired woman walk by, sad-eyed and talking to herself. Clad in a dark green T-shirt and blue jeans, with her booty practically bursting out of them, this gal looked hot, even though I saw a few silvery strands in her dark hair. I smiled at her, and sighed. Smoking hot mama!
The lady kept looking at her cellphone, and muttering to herself angrily. Finally, she walked away and sat down inside the crimson bus shelter. I noticed that the lady dropped her bus pass, and like the good Samaritan that I am, I picked it up and brought it to her. The woman, who decidedly looked middle-eastern, looked at me with narrowed eyes as I slowly approached her.
Cautious woman, I thought. A lot of people tend to stare at me when I'm walking around. Being a big and tall, dark-skinned young man in Ottawa isn't easy. This town is diverse, but a lot of minorities seem to share white folks dislike of us black men. Sad but true. I smiled at the lady and handed her the bus pass, and her eyes went wide with surprise, and she hesitantly took it from me. I wished the lady a good day and walked away.
I figured the situation was a lost cause, since, you know, Ottawa isn't the type of place where open-minded folks live. Seriously, go to Montreal or Toronto and you'll see lots of people of all colors walking around, and even a few interracial couples. Nobody bats an eyelash over stuff like that in those cities because they're both multicultural and racially diverse. Ottawa, also known as the town that fun forgot, is ages behind Canada's larger cities socially and culturally. In this town, people notice my skin color first, and my humanity second. That's just the way of things in O-Town.
Yeah, I was quietly fuming over the whole thing, anxiously wishing the damn bus would get there so I could be on my way. The morning started out so well, but the Arab-looking woman's reaction to me irked me. I tell myself to stop being sensitive to stuff like that but it's not easy. Everything is personal when you're a person. Suddenly I sorely missed the City of Montreal, where I was born, on the evening of February 7, 1989. My parents, Dieudonne and Julianne Armand still live there with my little brother Roger. Ottawa people suck!
I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder and whirled around. I do so loathe to be touched. The concept of personal space is something a lot of folks in Ottawa have a problem with. Don't stand too close and don't touch strangers. Sounds easy to me but the locals don't seem to get it. Who is the damn fool who dares to touch me? Imagine my surprise when I saw that it was the Arab lady from before. Smiling at me, the lady thanked me for giving her the bus pass, and I nodded slowly, eyeing her carefully. What does this broad want? That's what I was wondering.
The Arab lady's eyes were shining with a disturbing light, and she held out her hand, and introduced herself as Jannah El-Gamal. Hesitantly I shook her hand, and thus I met a most unforgettable lady. The bus came, and I was further surprised when Jannah sat next to me, and engaged me in conversation. What the hell is going on here? I politely went along with it, out of curiosity.
As it turns out, I had a lot more in common with this strange, lovely middle-eastern lady than I would have thought. Jannah was studying in the MBA program at Carleton University, trying to get a promotion at her job with the Canadian Revenue Agency. Small world, eh? When the OC Transpo bus reached Hurdman, Jannah and I went to the number four bus stop together and boarded the next bus heading to the campus.
We talked the whole way there, and I must say, I found myself looking at Jannah El-Gamal in a whole new light. I always thought them middle-eastern ladies were uptight and kept brothers at arms-length. This lady was very different. As we reached campus, I wished her a good day, and then went to the campus library with a smile on my face. Hey, it's not every day that a regular brother like me meets a tall, gorgeous Arab MILF. Jannah El-Gamal is smoking hot!
I sat at a computer in the library, and checked my Facebook messages. Another angry message from my ex-girlfriend Annie, a Haitian chick I used to date. Annie put me through all kinds of hell, and now that she's dating a guy from Syria, she is taunting me over our sordid past. I could care less whom Annie is dating. As far as I'm concerned, good riddance to bad rubbish. I thought of Jannah, the pretty Arab lady from the bus station, and out of curiosity I typed her name in the Facebook search engine.
Imagine my surprise when I easily found Jannah El-Gamal, and discovered that we had some friends in common. Suleiman Osman, a Somali dude I'm friends with at school, is apparently friends with Jannah on Facebook. Through this connection, I was able to take a peek through her profile. On Jannah's Facebook profile, I noticed that she was from Egypt, and had lots of Sudanese friends. You know, them tall, really dark dudes from North Africa. Fascinating, I thought.
I chanced sending Jannah El-Gamal a brief message, and a friend request. I got up from my seat in the library computer area, and went to the nearby washroom. There were a couple of bozos at the pissing spots, so I went into a booth to do my business. I had a cup of hot coffee earlier so I needed to pee like a motherfucker. As I stood there with my dick in my hands, I closed my eyes and pissed. An image flashed through my mind, and caused me to smile.
I found myself visualizing Jannah El-Gamal's smiling face, and the way that thick ass of hers looked in her tight blue jeans made me smile. Hell, my dick hardened like a piston. I am not usually the type to masturbate in washrooms but that day, I made an exception. What? It's perfectly natural. I imagined Jannah El-Gamal bending over, and offering that thick brown ass to me. I spread her ass cheeks and eased my long, dark dick inside. Hmmm. I pumped my dick, enjoying a guilty pleasure.
Moments after I came, some dude entered the next stall, and I wiped myself off with a paper towel, tucked my dick into my pants, flushed the toilet and walked out. I washed my hands, and returned to my computer. Imagine my surprise when I found a message in my Facebook inbox. Not only did Jannah El-Gamal add me as a friend, but the lady told me that with my generosity and gentlemanly manner, I restored her faith in humanity while she was having a good day. I smiled from ear to ear. Well, what do you know?
Ladies and gentlemen, that's how it all began. I added Jannah as a friend, and then, I requested her phone number via Facebook. The lady was very forthcoming, and gave it to me. Usually, I wait twenty four hours before giving a woman a call, but I dialed Jannah right away. I figured the lady is old enough to know what she wants, and doesn't have time for games. I mean, according to her Facebook profile, Jannah El-Gamal was born on November 7, 1979, in Port Said, Egypt, and graduated with a bachelor's degree in accounting from the University of Windsor in 2003. The lady listed her relationship status as single, and that sounds real good to me. If Jannah's cool, then I'm definitely down for whatever.
