I’m surprised when I see Candy of all people walk into
the restaurant. She’s on the arm of a
well-dressed man who looks twice her age.
Maybe she’s found herself a sugar daddy.
They sit across the room from me, and I enjoy watching her in action as
she works on the guy. She’s full of
giggles and flirtation and is really in her element. John Thomas sees her and walks to her
table. He kisses her hand and greets her
new friend. I wonder how well they know
each other.
Soon, he’s back to my table with a half-bottle of
champagne.
I ask him, “Do you know Candy?”
“Yes. I’ve seen
her at parties.”
“My friends sent her to my house as a present for my
21st birthday.”
“Really?” he seems very interested. “How’d it go?”
“It was fun.”
“Really?” he asks, showing even more interest. “I wish I had more time to talk, but the
restaurant is filling up. I hope you
come again.”
“I shall.”
He stands and takes my hand, kissing it before
leaving.
The server asks for my order, and I tell her, “I’ll
have the Fish Stew Provencal.”
“Good choice,” she says and goes off to the kitchen to
inform the chef.
After she leaves, I glance over at Candy and find her
looking back at me. She waves and I wave
back. I haven’t thought of her for a
long time. Suddenly, I miss her
company. Too bad she makes me pay every
time we have sex. She and her sugar
daddy leave, and I eat my delicious meal all by myself. I watch as John Thomas moves from table to
table, making each guest feel special.
He sure knows how to show a girl a good time. Too bad he can’t sit and talk to me. As I look around and see friends and lovers
laughing at their tables, I feel so lonely. I finish my meal and stand to
leave, looking for John Thomas to thank him.
I see him coming out of the kitchen with a bottle of wine and I walk
over to him. “Once again, thank you so
much. I thoroughly enjoyed my meal.”
He holds and kisses my hand and says, “Always a
pleasure to see you. Please come again.”
“I shall,” I tell him and return home to my lonely
empty house.
When I arrive back home, my phone rings. It’s Candy calling.
“Renee, it was good to see you again.”
“Always a pleasure to see you, Candy.”
“I’m glad you feel that way. I’m calling to invite you to a party.”
“What kind of party?”
“A masquerade party.
Wouldn’t that be fun?”
“Do I have to pay anything to go?”
“No. You’ll be
my guest. I was told I could bring a
friend. And I choose you.”
“Sounds fun.
Where will it be?”
“At the house of the guy who owns YUM restaurant.”
“John Thomas?”
“Yes.”
“Wow!” I answer.
This just gets even more exciting.
She asks, “So, what’s your answer? Yes or no?”
“Yes. It’ll be
fun. I love masquerade parties.”
