Chapter 1
After my 79th birthday It had become increasingly hard to live on my own. After I nearly burned the house down when I left a pan of fried chicken on the stove, my kids sat me down and told me they got me a room at the local assisted living facility. They had made all the arrangements and also met with a realtor to put my house on the market. I'm not thrilled with the idea but I had become increasingly lonely and didn't want to continue to rely on the kids to keep me company. So, I packed some things and made the short trip to my new life at West Woods Assisted Living.
I had driven by the place every day when I was working but never imagined living there. Once I saw my apartment though I was pleasantly surprised. I had a good sized living room, bedroom, bath and a small kitchen. While it felt odd to go from the spacious two story home I lived in for 45 years I told myself it would be nice to not have to worry about mowing the lawn or clearing snow anymore. I was also looking forward to meeting the other residents. If I'm being completely honest, I was hoping to meet a woman or two as it had been far too long since I enjoyed the company of the fairer sex.
The woman from admissions name was Sherry Stevens, and she stopped by my room to make sure I was settled and give me a tour. "Hello Mr. Swane. Are you ready for the grand tour?", she asked.
"I am Miss Steven's but only if you call me David," I said.
"I'm not supposed to do that but it's been a while since we've had such a handsome guest, so I suppose I can bend that rule just a bit," she replied.
Although I'm 79, I've always made sure to stay in great shape. I'm 5 feet 11 inches tall and a solid 190 pounds. I still have all my hair but it's mostly grey. Sherry looked to be around 5 feet 6 with just the right amount of curve. Her shoulder-length blonde hair was straight, and she had a nice pair of tits and a great ass so it was nice to get a compliment from a sexy woman who looked to be in her early 30's. Thinking about that caused a stir in my pants but Sherry hooked her arm in mine and said, "Let's go see the place and meet your new friends."
The facility turned out to be quite impressive. With an exercise room, dining room, rec room with games and a quiet room for reading and so on. Everything was clean and the grounds were also immaculate.
It was time for lunch, so we made our way back to the cafeteria, where Sherry introduced me to several residents. One woman looked up as we entered, waived to Sherry and said, "My Miss Stevens, who is this handsome man on your arm?"
"This is our newest resident Mr. David Swane. David this is Mary Adam's, Roger Welch and Susan Blair."
"Pleased to meet all of you," I said.
"I hope you'll join us for lunch David," Mary said as she patted the chair next to her.
"I'd never say no to a woman as charming as yourself," I said as I sat down. Mary was quite the looker with clear blue eyes, a warm smile and salt and pepper hair. She also had an impressive bosom which was even more highlighted by a relatively small frame.
"I should say Miss Steven's, it looks like we have quite the flirt on our hands," Mary said with a twinkle in her eye.
"That could be but he's been a perfect gentleman so far. Unfortunately I have some things to tend to so I'm doing to leave Mr. Swane with you for lunch. Is that ok David?"
"That's fine and thank you for everything," I said. As she left I couldn't help but watch her. "She's really something".
Roger chimed in with a wink, "You can say that again. If I were 20 years younger..."
"She'd ignore you as the old fool you are," said Susan.
I took my seat at the table as additional residents came to the dining hall and we made our introductions. Nearly everyone stopped by to introduce themselves and I was struck by how welcoming everyone was.
I said, "Initially I was pretty sad that I had to give up living on my own but everyone seems so nice. I think I'm going to really like it here."
Mary chimed in, "The place is quite nice but there are a few people you'll need to be careful around like Mrs. Blaine over there." She nodded over to an adjacent table and I noticed Mrs. Blaine who was quite attractive.
"She seems like quite a dish to me," I said. "What's wrong with her?"
Susan whispered, "To start she never met a secret that she could keep so if you don't want everyone to know your business just be careful with what you tell her."
"I see. Thanks for letting me know but I'm not harboring any deep dark secrets," I said.
Mary said, "Doesn't really matter to her. She tends to take liberties with the truth so just be careful."
Right on cue Mrs. Blaine came over and introduced herself. She made quite a show of bending over in front of me to give me a birds eye view of her ample bosoms. "Well, hello there new comer, I'm Melanie Blaine."
"Pleased to meet you Melanie, I'm David Swane."
"What's a handsome man like you doing in a place like this?", she asked.
"All I can say is that things were increasingly difficult for me at home and I felt it was time for a change. Judging by what I've seen so far I made the right choice," I said.
"Flattery will get you everywhere David," she said. "I look forward to getting to know you better and I hope you'll stop by my room sometime so we can have a nice private chat. Some people around here have said some things about me in the past and I want to make sure we get off on the right footing."
"That sounds nice Melanie. I'm sure we'll have plenty of opportunities to get acquainted."
"Enjoy your lunch," she said as she made her way back to her table.
"Well, she certainly seems harmless to me," I said.
"Don't let her fool you David," Mary said. "Wolf in sheep's clothing."
Just then lunch was served and I enjoyed a delicious burger and the company of my new friends.
After lunch Sherry was back and offered to show me back to my room. "Thank you Sherry. I'm not quite used to the place yet and feeling a bit overwhelmed."
"That's perfectly understandable," she said. "This is a big transition for you."
