On my way to work, I stopped at the house where just the day before, I had been treated to what I had thought was spontaneous sex with a woman who was holding a garage sale. Now she was gone and there was a furniture moving van in the driveway. Her friend, Carol, who lived next door, invited me in for coffee and told me that I had actually been "selected " as part of a going away gift.
"Now let me get this straight, you let a stranger take your friend into a sound proof bedroom so she could have one last sexual fling before going to a mission school in the Philippines."
Carol smiled and said " you were hardly a stranger. We saw you get out of your car, and I pulled up your vehicle registration on my laptop before you reached the first table. My ex-husband, who was an insurance investigator, taught me how to do that. I also pulled your credit report, and checked for recent HIV blood work in your medical records. We learned that your Daughter was listed as next of kin, so we guessed that you were not married. She paused and said " what we did not find out was if you were in a serious relationship."
I looked into those bright blue eyes, shook my head and said " No, after 30 years, I thought that I needed a little time to myself. I don't want to start any relationship that means I have to remember a woman's birthday. But I must admit that yesterday did remind me of what I am giving up."
Carol blushed a little and leaned over to pour me a second cup of coffee. Her open necked blouse gave me just a flash of her smallish breasts topped with erect pink nipples. she said " I also searched your name on the web, and see that you are a very creative cook." She gave me one of those impish smiles and said " do you have time to give me a few lesions and make us breakfast."
I wondered if she had found my erotic short stories, but there was no time for that this morning. " Sure " I said, " what can I teach you, in the kitchen."
We rummaged around in the refrigerator and settled on a Denver Omelet. After we got things ready, Carol said that she was never able to get the eggs to fold over just right. So, I stood behind her and reached around to guide her hands so she could experience just the right moment when she should slide the eggs on the plate and tip the pan over. That was when she leaned back and ground her little butt into my crotch, and said " do you want to teach me anything else this morning."
" No" I said, " we aren't going to waste a good omelet."
I saw her reflection in the kitchen window making a pout that would melt the heart of any man. She said " you didn't make Susan wait."
"That's right" I said, " and if she told you the whole story, you know that we had to stop half way and wait until our bodies caught up with our minds. Besides I have a meeting with my boss at 10." Not wanting to pass up another opportunity, I kissed her on the neck and said " would you like me to make you dinner."
She smiled and purred " My place or yours" I told her that it would have to be her place, because my daughter was home from college. Carol said " my kids are spending the summer with their father. I'll pick up a couple nice steaks. How about coming over a little early so you can, ahhh... help me start a fire."
Yesterday's adventure with Susan was, at least for me totally unexpected, but now I had a whole day to think about Carol, and ponder what I might be getting myself into. There had been a few offers since the divorce but I was reluctant, not wanting to run the risk of challenging my new status as pleasantly single. Those thoughts kept popping into my head all afternoon, but at least that was better than worrying about how this old but healthy body was going to stand up to the desires of a woman 15 years younger than me. Geese... I got low back pain just from cutting the lawn.
