She was into theater and had a lot of friends who made costumes and did make up… Not to mention the entire costume bank that was somewhat available for her use.
Her new boy friend was feeling punk. He had a fever and a runny nose – probably the flu… But she didn’t let that stop her. She was determined to make him feel better. She arranged a tray of possible remedies: Tylenol, Vick’s Vaporub, Kleenex, cough syrup, cough drops, vitamin C, and a small vase with a few flowers.
Then she put on her mini skirt nurse’s dress, a nurse’s hat made out of a paper plate with a big red cross on the front, some white panty hose, a black push up bra, and some white heels. She carefully placed the tray on the passenger side of her broken down VW Bug and drove over to his house.
She posed on his front porch with tray in hand, stomach sucked in, boobs stuck out, one hand on her hip…. She rang the bell. “Thought I’d make a house call to cheer you up,” she said smiling.
He had a book in hand, some wool socks on his feet, and a dingy blue bathrobe tied at the waist…. He didn’t look that great – obviously sick. She made a mental note: New red bathrobe for Christmas.
He was surprised to see her. He didn’t want to make her sick, but this was just another example of why he was falling for this crazy, wild, sexy woman. He took the tray and placed it on the dining room table. “Thank you,” he said as he glanced wantonly at her cleavage longing for a suckle or two. That would have to wait … until he felt better.
