Sandie:Yes! Tell me. Stop prolonging it.
Wylie:Levi Posey.
Sandie:I knew it! I freaking knew it. It had to be him. OMG, did you meet with him yet? Did he recognize you?
Wylie:I did meet with him last night, and he recognized me immediately. You should have seen the ghostly pallor of hisskin when I walked into the room. And then when we went to one of the media rooms to talk, he brought up that night. Had no problem telling me how attracted he is to me.
Sandie:Wow, now that’s refreshing. Did you climb on his lap and say thank you, let’s have a redo of that night?
Wylie:If only. He’s very adamant about keeping this professional, which I understand. And I want to do the same. Given my dad’s doubt in me, I truly want to show him that I can do this, no matter what obstacles he throws in front of me.
Sandie:What a shame. That kind of chemistry should be explored, not suppressed.
Wylie:Tell me about it, but I’m not about to risk anything, not when this could be a pathway to get my dad to understand where I’m coming from. That I can do this.
Sandie:Understandable. At least tell me he offered up his place to stay.
Wylie:He didn’t. I asked, and he was very hesitant at first, but then he told me about this nanny bedroom with a separate entry that he never uses. He said I could stay there, but I couldn’t tell my dad.
Sandie:That’s odd. Why wouldn’t you be able to tell your dad?
Wylie:I don’t know, but I took it. I don’t care where I live. I just want a place to sleep that’s not my dad’s place. And it can’t be any worse than the dorm we shared our first year.
Sandie:True! Nothing is worse than that cockroach-infested nightmare.
Wylie:Remember when we spent three hours on my bed, huddled together because there was a cockroach the size of a mouse under your bed, and we were afraid it would attack our feet if we got off the bed?
Sandie:That will forever be engrained in my memory. I still shiver just thinking about it. Hopefully, that won’t be the case with the nanny room.
Wylie:I’m referring to it as the Nanny Hole.
Sandie:Sounds like that one club we went to.
Wylie:That’s what I said to him, and you should have seen the sweat on his temple. I asked him if he’s ever been to a club like that, and he said no, but there was guilt written all over his face.
Sandie:Did you tell him you love a sex club?
Wylie:I told him I had been to a few, and that’s when he bolted.
Sandie:LOL. I’m guessing that’s not something he wanted to know about you.
Wylie:That much is obvious. Ugh . . . if only circumstances were different because I’d show that man such a good time.
Sandie:Instead, you get to fetch him coffee.
Wylie:Maybe I can do it topless.
Sandie:I’ll give you twenty bucks to do it topless.
Wylie:I would do it for five.
