James stood staring at the selection of GPS units on display in the electronics store, perplexed at the many different models to choose from. He was lost and his GPS had died. James is a private investigator and the assignment for today was to deliver a summons to a witness in a Federal case.
The prosecutor in this case was a friend of James and owed him a favor, so he hired James to deliver the subpoena. Subpoenas were easy money for him, but this witness lived out of state.
Now, here he is, lost and frustrated in a town he has never been in, at an electronics store where he can't seem to get any assistance. As he scanned the store for an employee that he could get to help him, he saw the most gorgeous face he had seen in a long time. She looked to be in her mid 20's but her face had an angelic innocence to it.
Her eyes were bright and pronounced and the way she wore her makeup defined them all the more. Her shoulder length hair was black and shiny that made the caramel brown color of her perfectly smooth face stand out. When she saw that James was staring at her she sucked her teeth and mumbled under her breath as she turned away.
James watched her walk away just so that he could get a look at her body. She was a full figured girl weighing in at around 210 lbs. Although she stood at 5'7", her weight was distributed to the right places. She had succulent round breasts that didn't sag below her ribs. They seemed to have not droop at all. And from what he could see from her exposed cleavage, no visible veins.
Her legs and thighs were toned and shapely. And the part that James liked best was her butt. It looked like she was carrying a pair of basketballs in her pants. When she walked it had the right amount of bounce to it that made him want to get two handfuls and jiggle them vigorously. Together, her thighs and butt complemented each other in a way that seemed perfect.
Finally, a sales associate noticed James standing at the display looking bewildered and came over to earn his commission. While James was listening to the over extensive knowledge of this unit verses that unit, his angel came to the end of the aisle to wait for the group of friends that she came with to catch up to her.
"Come on here or Imma leave you!" She yelled to them. Just then she noticed James watching her. "WHAT!!???" She blared at James as she turned to look him directly in his face. "You act like you ain't never seen a woman before!" "You must want all of this on your little boyfriend right there!"
James was shocked at the sudden barrage of insults being directed at him. What had he done to her? Definitely, he was not the first person to notice the beauty that he saw in her. As the young lady's friends gathered around her she kept hurling insults and attitude at James as he stood there in disbelief of what was happening. What made it so bad was that the young lady was so loud that other people stopped shopping and watched the demonstration.
"How could something so ghetto come out of something so pretty?" James wondered.
The young lady continued with her non-stop montage of humiliation and insults. Then she hit James' hot button.
"You look like you're gay!" "I don't go that way, faggot!"
If only she knew what being called a faggot did to James. If only she knew how the rumor of being gay ruined his life. James was running for Mayor in the last election and the surveys showed that he was a sure win for the office. A rumor was started by one of the other candidates that James was a homosexual in an attempt to sway voters. As the rumor spread so did the severity of the lie.
It slowly changed from just being gay to being a pedophile of little boys. The wildfire of lies was so great that James lost the election and the respect of key officials in the city. James was also engaged to be married soon, but his fiancΓ© left him as a result of the lies. She felt that with so much talk about him, it must be true.
The truth finally came out about the origin of the rumors but by then James' reputation was too damaged to gain the trust of the people. He was recognized all over town which made it nearly impossible for him to get back on his feet.
James could not run for any office because of the smear campaign the destroyed him. His image would blemish any representation of public service. He couldn't' get a job as the supply clerk at the Public Works facility. So he went into business for himself as a private detective. One of the few real friends that he had left was the Federal Prosecutor he was on this job for. He would use James whenever he could to help him build his life back. This was all due to being called gay. And now whenever someone used the word faggot, it brought up the past and anger in him.
The young lady continued with homosexual references toward James; and every time she spewed the word "faggot" it shot a bolt of electricity up James' spine. That word disturbed him to the core of his soul. The ghetto fabulous angel ended the show and she and her friends walked out of the store.
James collected his cool and shook his head in resolve that it was finally over. He grabbed the first GPS that was in front of him, took it to the check out and was back on the mission that he had came to town for.
As James drove along, he couldn't help but re-live the incident at the electronics store. He tried to convince himself that he should let it go. "Some people just don't have any home training." He spoke loudly to himself in an attempt to feel better. But he just couldn't get it off of his mind. Sub-consciously, he felt that his past had followed him to another state.
James found the address with ease now that he had a working GPS. It seemed like a nice quiet neighborhood with beautiful homes, green manicured lawns and friendly neighbors. The person that he delivered the subpoena to was very friendly and courteously. He even invited James in for a cup of tea or coffee.
"No thank you" James declined, "I have to get going and find a hotel for the night."
As James walked down the pathway back to his car, he thought to himself of how lovely it would be to live in that neighborhood. Just as he was walking around his car another car pulled into the driveway next door. James stopped and watched to speak to the neighbor of the nice man he had just met. To his surprise, it was the young lady from the store.
"How could someone like that live in such a nice neighborhood?" James wondered. Her house was well kept and seemed in order. It didn't look like a person with a bad disposition like hers would live there.
As she unlocked the door to the house she noticed who was standing in the street watching her. All of a sudden the upbeat feelings that James was feeling deflated within him and were replaced with anxiety.
"How is she going to react?" "She is so pretty."
