Chapter
A strange week.
I walked up the beach, past the Brudenell Hotel, on The Crag.
I looked for Lisi. For all that had been going on with the departure of John and Mandy, I had not seen much of Lisi. I would call her later that day to bring her up to date and to hear what she had been up to.
Camera in hand, I strolled, snapping away, not concentrating on my subjects or composition and not being creative as I was distracted.
I sat on the beach, thinking about making love to Mandy and how wonderful I felt after the guilt eased.
I loved her so much. Having such sexual feelings towards her and her to me strengthened our love.
I missed her already.
Thinking of Mandy turned my mind to John. Of Mandy encouraging him, feeding his cock into me, him filling me with his girth, of the fucking he gave me and of the sex with Mandy as she sucked his come out of me.
I had experienced a sexually groundbreaking month culminating in a lesbian relationship with Lainey, the former boss of Mandy, my daughter.
I did not know where the sexual frenzy came from and what sex with Mandy had unleashed in me.
Never before had I been so forward in any sexual act as I had with Lainey, even surprising her. She was happy with what happened between us and wanted to meet next week.
I was eager to see her again, but sooner if possible, so I decided I would ask her to come for dinner at my cottage.
I pulled myself together and called Lisi as I walked back down the High Street to my home. Lisi answered the call breathlessly.
"Oh, hi Eli, how are you? I was just thinking of you."
''Good thoughts, I hope?"
"Yes, they were, they were about the last time I saw you. We must have a catch-up."
Lisi went on to tell me she was up in London, busy working and would be back home on Monday.
She suggested to me that we would fix up lunch or something.
We said our goodbyes and ended the call.
I was disappointed Lisi was away working, as we got on well and enjoyed each other intimately. My sexual urges were to the fore once again.
That evening, Mandy called to check if I was alright, quickly telling me about the journey, the house they had rented, the shops, the clothes she had bought and asked if everything was okay with her home.
Then she had to go as a delivery of a car had arrived. We said our goodbyes, which set me off thinking of a better way of communicating with her.
I had heard about something called Skype.
I promised myself to investigate it tomorrow.
I had another call soon after that was from Lainey, saying she had been thinking about me and just wanted to say hi.
Our call lasted over an hour as we chatted easily with each other.
I liked her a lot. I wanted her and to sleep with her again.
I asked her to dinner on Saturday.
She readily accepted.
"No drinking though as I have to drive back to home."
She said in a put-on, disappointed voice.
Calmly as I could manage, I offered back.
"You could, of course, stay the night?"
I held my breath, waiting for a reply.
"I will bring my nightgown, the one I wore on Wednesday."
Lainey answered.
Emboldened by her reply, I asked her not to forget to bring dessert.
''Well, I need to go to bed after this conversation and fuck myself silly with my dildo, sweetie, I will be thinking of you."
A sigh.
"Goodnight, Eli, darling."
On edge and not wanting to sleep after talking to Lainey, I worked on editing some images I had taken at Orford of some decaying boats on the mud of the tidal river.
I must visit again when the tide is in. I decided to get a boatman to get nearer to them from the water.
This type of subject worked well in black and white with a grain added in Photoshop.
After completing six images, I loaded the printer with A3 Matt paper and set it off. After I checked it was printing well, I went to bed and slept soundly till ten a.m.
Quite late for me.
Looking at the prints was the first thought of the day.
The prints looked great.
I was pleased with them and thought I could try to sell my work.
Would anyone buy them?
I went back upstairs to shower.
My second thought of the day as I showered and rubbed my clit to get myself off was Lainey, memories of our shared shower, her beautiful body, her sexy look and her touch.
Off I went with a forceful orgasm, sending my legs wobbly, satisfying my urges, for now.
I dressed to do some shooting, casually, jeans and a jumper, also suitable for browsing around Snape Maltings and the shops and galleries there.
Needing to eat before going to Snape, so went to Veggie Vals to be greeted by Millie.
She took my order and served me promptly, all with a smile on her beautiful face.
It was busy in the Cafe. Millie and I did not have time to chat, but we snatched a few brief words together. Emily was helping in the kitchen and serving, none of the usual banter from her.
She still looked ready to model for a glamour magazine, immaculately made up and a little heavy in the application.
I noted how comfortable she moved into little poses like she was modelling.
On collecting my camera gear from my study, I opened my garage doors in the lane at the rear of my cottage and set off in my car to Snape Maltings with a purpose.
I parked at the old Maltings. The day was cloudy. The clouds were big, dark, threatening of heavy rain.
I walked onto the bridge and took several images with different angles of the restored Wherry Boats moored to the quay.
I wandered around the fascinating buildings, taking shots of features of interest, and then entered the main sales showroom, which specialized in good quality, different, quirky, eclectic furnishings.
A green upholstered sofa caught my eye. Sitting on it to try it out, I found it comfortable and liked the style.
It was perfect for my lounge, so I took a few photographs of it, my flash getting the attention of other shopping browsers, and a young sales assistant with her corporate name badge, which had Eve Sales Assistant engraved in script.
She asked me if I liked the sofa.
I intimated that I did with a nodding head and a smile.
"I have taken some photographs of it, to see if it will go in my lounge."
I sat on the sofa and patted the seat, indicating I wanted to show her the images on the back of my camera.
As she sat close to me, I could feel her warm thigh on mine.
She was around eighteen years old. Attractive and very smartly dressed in her casual uniform.
Her perfume was something I could not identify, but it aroused me.
What was becoming of me?
Concentrating on the back of my camera, I showed her the images and explained I would take some shots of my lounge and photoshop the image of the sofa into it.
"Well, that is a great idea."
She said enthusiastically.
"If you want the sofa ask me, please, I get a commission, I think I can give you a discount on this one as it is the showroom model, although it has not been on display for long and I think it is near perfect."
She said, with a charming open smile.
"Come to the service counter before you leave, I will sort out a price for you."
She said it as though I was the most important customer she had.
Eve was so engaging she made me believe it.
She was good at her job, as well as attractive.
I sat for a while on the sofa, contemplating the purchase, giving it a good inspection for any damage or marks and could not find any.
I went to the counter. Eve, seeing me approach, smiled warmly.
"Hi, what do you think of the sofa?"
Eve gave me the price of the sofa handwritten on a formal quotation, including delivery. The discount offered was substantial.
"It is nice, so subject to deciding if it will go in my lounge at home, I will have it.
I would like you to hold it till I call you tomorrow. Can you do that in my name, Eliza Silitti, please, Eve?''
''I will certainly, here are my details.''
She handed her business card to me across the sales counter.
