Donna's phone rang, and Brooke was quick to answer it.
"Hello?"
"Donna? Is that you?"
"No, I'm sorry... this is Brooke... Donna's not home today... she's at a seminar in San Mateo for the weekend, and I'm here, watching her place."
"San Mateo?"
"It's some kind of a business thing for marketing security systems. Donna's there trying to drum up interest in what her company has to offer."
"Wait a sec... you're Brooke? 'Malibu Barbie' Brooke?"
"Excuse me?"
"You're that beautiful little college blonde babe that Donna's been head-over-heels with, aren't you?
"Who is this?"
"I'm sorry, Brooke. My name is Nancy. I manage 'Charli's Place' - it's that bar you showed up at a few month's back... I still remember you... heck, everybody there still remembers you!"
"Oh yeah... I remember now! Charli's Place... that was the bar with all of those women in it!"
"That's true... not many guys there."
"Do they really still remember me?"
"Absolutely... you looked incredibly hot, don't you remember? You wouldn't believe how many of my customers there that day later asked me who you were! You're famous!"
"Oh, stop it!"
"No, I'm serious!"
The gorgeous blonde girl giggled. "That's so nice!"
"Listen, Brooke... YOU'RE the reason I'm calling. I was going to ask Donna, you see, if by any chance, you were available for a job tomorrow night... are you?"
"Me? What kind of a job?"
"It's really nothing, but it'll pay you two-hundred dollars for just a couple hour's work!"
"Wow... that's a lot of money! What exactly do I have to do?"
"It's really simple, honey. A lot of my regulars here at 'Charli's Place' are like family to me, and every now and then we like to do something special for them."
"Your place is an all-girl-bar, right?"
"Yes, it is. And while we've got a sizeable number of what you might call tough-looking, butchy-biker-chicks among our clientele, we also cater to several wealthy, older women who love frequenting this establishment."
"I think that's so nice!"
"Yes, it is... anyway, one of these women, her name is Amy Donovan, has been a regular here since... well, since the 1970's. And she turns sixty-five tomorrow, and so we're having a surprise birthday party for her up in Marin County at the home of another wealthy regular, Monica Dewhurst!"
"And you want my help?"
"Yes. You see, we wanted to do something special for Amy. One of the ladies suggested we hire a pretty stripper..."
"I hope you don't mean me!"
"No... we decided against that. Linda Morris thought that a nude girl jumping out of a birthday cake holding a big sign would be hot, but we decided against that, as well..."
"I don't like that, either!"
"Yeah, it's way too much like something a bunch of drunk white guys might have done back in the 1950's... and I said as much!"
"I agree!"
"Well, here's the deal... Amy was a college student at Cal-Berkeley back in the late 60's... and back then she was a huge fan of a television show 'Laugh In,' which was very popular at the time... anyway, and it used to include shots of pretty, bikini-clad young women dancing... and they always had writing covering their bodies! So we thought, what if we did a 'Laugh-In' theme, and included a girl wearing a bikini jumping out of a cake, and we'd have written messages all over her body like 'Happy Birthday' and fun stuff like that?"
"And you want that 'Laugh-In' girl to be me to be me?"
"Exactly right! Actually, we were originally going to hire a girl from one of those strip-o-gram companies, but the one we contacted called us back a couple of hours ago to say she's got the flu... and so now we need a replacement girl, and quick! So, how 'bout it? What do you say?"
"So... let me get this straight... you want me to jump out of a birthday cake wearing a bikini to wish this woman a happy birthday?"
"That is correct!"
"And you say you'll pay me two-hundred dollars?"
"Yes, we will... so what do you say?"
"I'll do it!"
"Excellent! I'll pick you up tomorrow and drive you over there... can you be ready by noon?"
"Do I need to pack my bikini?"
"No... we'll provide you with one... just be ready at noon, OK?"
"I'll be ready!"
"Great! See you then, pretty girl!"
***********************************************
The next day, Nancy & Brooke drove together across the Golden Gate bridge in Nancy's Audi S8.
"You're going to really like these women, Brooke. They're all wealthy and high class ladies... well, most of them, anyway! And Amy Donovan, our birthday girl - she's a real sweetie!"
"Is everybody who's going to be attending this party... are all of the women lesbians, Nancy?"
"Yeah, pretty much. Why do you ask? Is that going to be a problem?"
"No... I guess you could say that I'm kind of a lesbian, myself, what with my relationship with Donna."
"Yeah, I guess you are... in any case, I can promise you one thing... ALL of the women at this party will LOVE you, sweet girl!"
"Thanks, Nancy!"
