Disclaimer -- All characters are 18 or older. There is sex between an older woman and a much younger man. The man is Mexican. There are racial stereotypes in this story. The woman is a prototypical middle-aged woman. She's a 46-year-old woman who looks her age. Not one who could still pass for 30. If any of this is not your cup of tea, just move on.
Intro -- Diane is a white 46-year-old divorcee. Her ex-husband comes over to help their son move into college, but Diane and her ex end up in a huge fight. Frustrated and pissed off, she decides to sleep with the 20-year-old Mexican boy who has come to mow her lawn. Sexual hijinks ensue.
*****
There was a knock at the door.
Oh crap, thought Diane. That'd better not be Doug. Ben's not back yet.
She opened the front door. Sure enough, it was her ex-husband. She saw his pick-up in the drive-way. They stood at odds in an awkward silence.
"Where's Ben? I'm here to get his stuff loaded and drive it over to campus," Doug finally asked.
"He'll be back soon. He just ran over to Chris' to get back some things he'd lent him before."
"Christ, I have afternoon appointments. I don't have all day."
"You're early. I thought Ben said to be here at 9:30 AM. It's only 9:15."
"He should be here."
"He'll be here. Cut him some slack," Diane shot back.
Doug glared at Diane. He huffed but bit his tongue. They'd been divorced for over 10 years. Their relationship had only grown more acrimonious post-divorce.
Diane sighed. Might as well be civil.
"Would you like to wait inside?" Diane asked, trying to strike a reconciliatory tone.
Doug eyed inside the door then relented and took up the offer. He stood in the entryway after crossing the threshold, looking over the dΓ©cor. His tastes were spartan. The accents and throw pillows scattered throughout the room were too busy and offended his senses. A bunch of cheap foreign-made crap. He wondered how he ever lived with her for 10 years.
"What afternoon appointments do you have?" Diane innocently inquired.
"I'm meeting up with Joe."
Golf, thought Diane. Jesus, that's what's got you so pressed. You're worried about making a tee time on your only kid's college move-in day. Doug saw the look on her face.
"When someone is doing you a solid, you don't keep them waiting. It's common courtesy," he stated.
God, he's insufferable, thought Diane.
"Ben's grown now. He's got to learn," Doug continued. "Christ, he's going off to college. You piss off the wrong person with this crap, then you're left wondering why you didn't get a job, a call back, or lost a client. That's how the real-world works, Diane. He needs to learn."
"You know, maybe, just maybe, you should cut him some slack."
"This world's filled with lazy bums. All the folks who feel entitled these days. To what? You've got to earn things in life. And you work hard to earn those things."
"What the fuck are you babbling about?"
"Do you want our son to end up as one of those fucking guys waiting on the government to bail them out of everything. Like all the damn immigrants who come here thinking life in the USA is easy street when they don't have any skills and can't even speak the damn language."
"Earth to Doug. Who the hell are you talking to? I work. I speak English. What the hell?" Good to know he hadn't lost his racist bent.
"You're one to talk."
"Excuse me," Diane objected. Here we go again. Just like old times, she thought.
"He's mama's little boy. Why do you think he's like this? He's soft. He's weak."
"Maybe he could've used a better father figure in his life. Of course, you were too busy skirt chasing. Or maybe that's just what a real man does? Abandon his family for some hot young thing."
"I've been married to Jodie for 8 years now," Doug objected. "When are you going to get over that? She wasn't the issue. You were."
"Oh, that's rich."
"Christ, you're so freaking frigid. What was I supposed to do? You didn't put out the last 2 years of our marriage. It's like your pussy just dried up and shriveled away. A man has needs. It's like you pushed me away."
"I pushed you away?" Diane replied incredulously, near tears. "You already had one foot out the door!"
"Bullshit! I would've stayed. If you gave me a reason to. What happened to you? You used to be fun. Look at you. You're just old and bitter. You let yourself go. Any real man would've jumped at the first chance to run."
"We had a kid, for Christ sake. You want me to apologize for taking care of our family? Really?"
