Excerpt from Amaretto with Coffee
We covered the storefront windows with paper while we
were working. I was impressed at how
helpful Loren was while I built walls and hung drywall on them. No matter what I did, she was always right
there handing me the next tool or holding the other end of the board.
One night
we worked until seven o'clock. We got in
my truck and headed North on I-95. I
called Cracker Barrel from my cell phone and ordered two dinners to go. I remained in the truck while Loren ran into
the restaurant and picked up the order.
As we sat on the couch watching the TV and eating our food I
occasionally looked at what she was eating.
I stabbed it with my fork and tried it.
She would take her fork and stab mine and before long we were both
eating off of both plates and food was falling on our laps and on the
couch. I picked up some baby carrots off
of the couch, pushed them against her chest, watching them fall down into her
shirt. She squealed from the feeling
then scooped up the rest of my mashed potatoes, crammed them up the leg of my
shorts, smashing them around my unit.
This became war. I found my unopened container of
biscuit gravy and she grabbed the grits.
The clothes were saturated and the couch was going to require a
professional cleaning. We laughed as we
ran down the hall together with food falling onto the Persian rug as we went. We jumped into the walk in shower of the
master bedroom fully dressed. We stood
with the water running, the food falling, and grabbed the shampoo from the
towel bar.
We both washed our hair and used the shampoo
to clean our clothing. As the suds rinsed
away I started unbuttoning her blouse, and let the carrots fall into the
shower. The laughing stopped. Within 60 seconds we both stood naked in the
shower with our squeaky-clean bodies in full contact. After a rapid towel dry, the activities moved
into the bedroom and continued until after midnight.
We woke up
in the morning holding onto each other in my bed. I was wondering what I had done now, and how
it was going to end up. I was in love
with Lisa, but she has become so obsessed with her business, that the qualities
that I used to like about Lisa have now become more prominent in Loren.
