The Sub Next Door (Careful What You Wish For)

Mary Ann Wilson, who lived a life which was proper and palatable; had dormant longings of salaciousness resurrected in the presence of a stranger. His name was Brink. And, this man lived up to his name in taking this tepid housewife willingly into that void of the unknown.

On this cul-de-sac of Chamberlain Court, borrowing a cup of sugar was just the beginning of getting to know your neighbors better.

Motioning with trepidation into her own kitchen, she noticed how at ease he was after what just occurred upstairs. Hesitantly, Mary Ann repeated her question to him, “Where do I begin?”

With glass empty, he tapped it onto the floor of the stainless steel sink and turned to her, “After what I have just seen”, Brink commented on an observation of what was not so obvious, “You are rudderless…”

She sighed, “What?”’

“Lovely Mary Ann….” Taking her hand into his, Brink laid out what he envisioned for her training, “You are a woman in need of direction. And, I am the man who will direct you…..” He added, “…If you are willing”.

Unable to look at him and releasing from his grip, her eyes were cast downward, as she paused at the thought of all the questions which would arise in her life if she proceeded with any sexual dalliance with him. Maybe her own embarrassment of being caught off guard in the bathroom had taken over; leaving this woman unable to say no to something so outrageous and outside of the person she was.

Standing in this moderately sized kitchen with yellow and white paint motif, a conversation of intimacy and depth took place between them.

Brink let it be known upfront that this was not going to be some kind of extortive shakedown of having her in his world and at his beck and call. What was offered to Mary Ann was not a 24/7 lifestyle, but a taste of excitement, which she had definitely wanted.

Picking up a notepaper, he scribbled his telephone number upon it for a one word answer. He left it on the counter and exited through the kitchen door.

Brink was patient with her, as he left the window of his offer available to Mary Ann open until midnight.

At 11:55 that night, she called and a three-letter word changed her life forever.....
