Chapter 18
EDDIE
April was a beautiful woman.
Yes, she was means to an end, but that didn’t mean I wasn’t going to enjoy our time together. That would be mean to myself.
And yes, I just used mean in three different ways. I’m a man of many skills.
April had paused for a slight second after I’d asked her to kiss me and told her no missionary. I could tell she had two voices in her head. One telling her to kiss me. The other telling her to run.
To my delight, she chose the former.
She took a shower after we’d had sex.
We were both sweaty messes, and I can’t blame her. She didn’t want to risk good old David smelling the sex on her. If I had to guess, it had been a long time since David and April had been as passionate as we’d just been. Maybe ever.
Before April turned to go, she asked me four more rapid-fire questions.
“Same time next Tuesday?”
I said yes.
“Did you hear what I said after my friend Margie went inside?”
I said yes again.
“So this is more than just about us having sex?”
I said yes a third time.
“Do you have a plan for getting some of David’s money?”
Why ruin a good thing? I said yes a fourth straight time.
