Her girlfriends were wearing Prada, Gucci and carrying Louie Vuitton bags. She was a student on a budget. She wanted those things but couldn't get herself up to dating a man her daddy's age like her friends were doing. The notion just seemed like her friends were replacing the daddy they didn't have. She loved her daddy. He has always been there for her. They didn't always see eye to eye. He wanted her to be something she was not. If he found out she was banging someone double her age, he would flip. Come to think of it, her dad's friend was a hunk of a man. She shook her head. "Why was she seeing him like this now?"
The next week her dad's friend showed up at her door as if she had summoned him. She was a spiritual person and she believed in the old sayings and the connection with the universe. "What you put out into the universe is what you will receive." She had been thinking too hard about a sugar daddy.
"Hi, your dad suggested that I drop by to make sure you were good."
Her fantasies were rising before she could get a grip on her words. "I'm good. Just a lil hungry."
"Well let's go get something to eat. I know a nice place."
"Let me grab my keys."
He made small talk while they rode. H Town was playing on the radio. He had to be at least 50. She could see the graying in his beard. He could pass for 40 because he looked like he was in shape. "How you like them knicks?"
"I think they need a coach like Pat Riley back in the day."
"You remember Pat Riley?
"My dad loved the knicks." Her reservations resurfaced.
They ate in a small mom and pop restaurant not far from campus. "The food is really good here."
She knew about it. Most of the campus came here. If her girlfriends saw her, they would think she found a sugar daddy. Could he be her sugar daddy? She was appraising him as he put food in his mouth. His tongue came out to lick the end of his spoon and she felt goose bumps all over her body. She had learned to listen to her body. It was telling her that something had activated her extra senses. Her nervous tick was touching her hair and she had been playing with it unconsciously. She sat up and watched for more signs. None came. She needed time to process this. They chatted easily and she felt comfortable talking to him like he could be a best friend. They had some things in common. They both worked out, loved good food and movies.
On her doorstep she hugged him goodbye. He felt warm and strong. "Let's do this again sometime."
"Great. I am in town for a week. There is wine tasing event tomorrow. Would you like to go?"
"Of course. What time?" She had to get her feet and nails done.
"5 pm. I will pick you up."
"I will be ready." It sounded like a song coming out of her mouth. That night she laid in bed and ruminated. She didn't know what to do with these feelings for her dad's friend. Not to mention he was an older man. What if it becomes serious? What if deep down inside she wanted a sugar daddy. Her friends may have planted it in her subconscious. She wanted to be as cute as them and be independent. Have her own bread. She could see herself peeling off a couple of hundred for that Prada bag.
That night she dreamed she was the princess of her friends. She had found a sugar daddy who lavished her with gifts.
The wine tasting was marvelous. She had tried a few and already felt floaty. She felt his gaze on her when she sipped the wine like he was trying to see inside of her. She licked the rim of the glass to show she knew how to use her tongue.
She was holding his hand without remembering when. It felt secure and she relaxed to the wine. She sat across from him at one booth and played footie under the table. She was certain of one thing. She was going to give him some pussy tonight. She was horny as hell. She couldn't remember the last time she has some good dick. Sugar daddy or not. She was taking this one for herself.
The ride home felt good. The fall weather felt invigorating. She rode with the windows down and loved how the breeze pass though her like an ancestorial gathering. She understood what maya Angelou meant about taking your ancestors with you. She laid her hand on his leg and he looked at her. She rubbed it across his dick and felt it growing hard.
"Is this what you want," he said.
"Yes, for tonight. I just feel I need someone to cuddle with. Are you alright with it?"
"You told me several times that you are grown. I like grown women."
