Dwight stepped out of his mother-in-laws apartment and walked down the hall to the main common area. He enjoyed the times when he would accompany his wife for a visit to his mother-in-law. They had always gotten along quite well, but he knew that his wife enjoyed some one-on-one time with her mother. As he approached the common area he recognized a few of the ladies sitting at a table and walked over to join them.
This was a retirement village with full apartments for each of its guests, along with extensive common areas for meals, recreation and social gatherings. Dwight and his wife, Laurie had been regular visitors to the Safire Lake Village for almost a year, which was the time the Dwight was able to take a transfer in his job back to his wife's home town.
Dwight joined the two ladies and the conversation immediately changed to focus on Dwight. The ladies were named Elizabeth and Adriana. Elizabeth was a tall, midsized lady with fiery red hair at 72 years young. Adriana was a 74 year old, slightly larger lady with wide hips, full yet sagging breasts and short brown & grey hair. Elizabeth & Adriana were more playful with Dwight on this visit.
Elizabeth: "So when are you going to leave that skinny young lady of yours, for a mature woman who will treat you right."
Adriana: "We know how to properly pleasure a man."
Dwight was used to their playful banter from his previous visits.
Dwight: "What about all of the men around this place, certainly there are a number of men here that could tame your passions?"
Adriana: "This is mostly a hen party here, as most of the men that are here are married. This is the curse of living longer then our men folk."
At this time Laurie walked up and advised Dwight that it was time to go.
It was only a few weeks after this visit that Laurie's mother passed away. This was tough on both of them, but even more difficult when only three weeks later, Laurie died in a car accident on a simple trip home from the store.
It was months later on a Saturday morning, that Dwight, was returning from an early breakfast a local diner and as he looked up, he saw the Safire Lake Village and on a spur of the moment he just turned into the parking lot. Dwight had moved to this town about a year ago and had yet to make any good friends of his own, they were all Laurie friends. As he walked into the common area he quickly caught sight of Adriana and Elizabeth sitting in the corner by the window. He approached them and they quickly started back with their flirtatious conversations. After some time, their conversation turned a bit more serious.
Adriana: "So, I wouldn't have expected to see you back here after Greta passed?"
Dwight paused for a moment, and responded in lower tones.
Dwight: "I lost my Laurie a few months ago to a car accident."
They both responded in shock with their sympathies, as they had not heard this news.
Elizabeth: (In a bright cheery voice) "Well, I know how to cheer you up. You need the comfort of a good experienced woman to make your body tingle."
At that time another resident came by and asked Elizabeth to do her hair. Elizabeth excused herself and left the table.
Dwight: "Do you ladies seriously think about sex constantly? Are you ladies getting any...?" Then he paused for a moment as he was searching for the right word, "male attention."
Adriana: "Well, we are still able to have sex and we enjoy it, but there are slim pickings around here and we do not get out much. It has been a very long time for most of us and so, we flirt a lot with most everyone. But for the most part, we just want to feel alive again. So yes, we joke about sex, but we are serious, well, I am serious."
