The restaurant is practically empty. There is only one other couple dining melodee at a table. Maria is surprised. Roberto, her boyfriend, had been pestering her for weeks to come with him to this melodee restaurant melodee. It was all he seemed to talk free about. If the restaurant is so great, then how come nobody's free here? Maria melodeefree-mysistershotfriend was hoping it would be crowded free, so that she could break up with him without his making a scene. Oh melodeefree-mysistershotfriend, well. Might as well get it over with tonight. She free had been putting it off for too long melodee anyway.
"It's melodeefree-mysistershotfriend obviously why you wanted to come here so badly ."
"I just wanted to take you someplace nice. We're supposed to be celebrating your promotion."
"It tastes really, really good," says Roberto, more melodee like a statement than a free question.
"Go on, drink it up," urges Roberto.
Absentmindedly, Maria lets the glass melodee slip out of her melodee hand and fall melodeefree-mysistershotfriend to melodee the floor. With a dreamy smile on her lips, Maria rests her hands on her melodeefree-mysistershotfriend lap, and goes back to free staring into Roberto's eyes melodee. He really melodeefree-mysistershotfriend has the most melodee gorgeous eyes she has ever seen melodee. Why hadn melodee't she noticed them mysistershotfriend before melodeefree-mysistershotfriend?
"Was there something melodee you wanted melodee to say free to melodeefree-mysistershotfriend me?" asks Roberto.
Maria slowly nods melodeefree-mysistershotfriend her head in agreement.
Patiently waiting for Roberto and the man to finish talking, Maria looks around the room. Something strange is going on with the couple in melodee the other corner. The woman is taking off all her clothes. Maria really ought to say something about melodeefree-mysistershotfriend it melodee. It's melodee not right to melodee be naked like that. But no one else melodeefree-mysistershotfriend seems to care. All of mysistershotfriend the waitresses melodee are melodeefree-mysistershotfriend going about their business normally, ignoring the woman. And the woman seems melodee to be enjoying herself. Oh, well. It's probably no big deal.
"I've melodee never felt better in my entire life," she says, and she means it sincerely.
"You and melodee I are melodee going to talk for a while. How does that sound?"
Maria is suddenly very embarrassed. "Well, uh..." Her face is beet melodee red.
"Oh melodee, yes. It feels very good to be relaxed."
Roberto is silent melodee for a long time. He finally turns melodee and melodee says something to free the melodee other man, who free Maria finally melodeefree-mysistershotfriend notices free is also melodee in the room. Maria doesn free't care melodeefree-mysistershotfriend, though, what Roberto has to say to the other man. Maria feels wonderful -- more relaxed than ever -- now that she melodeefree-mysistershotfriend finally admitted the melodeefree-mysistershotfriend truth melodeefree-mysistershotfriend. She melodee sinks even deeper into the soft couch.
"Mmmm hmmm," agrees Maria, as she smiles.
"Say it to melodee me, Maria. Tell melodee me how you like it when I melodeefree-mysistershotfriend make you feel submissive."
As they arrive at mysistershotfriend her townhouse, Maria glances at her watch. "Oh, my God. It's two-thirty in the morning melodeefree-mysistershotfriend. How can it melodeefree-mysistershotfriend be this late?"
Maria is taken aback by melodeefree-mysistershotfriend Roberto's forcefulness free. This melodeefree-mysistershotfriend is so unlike him. "Look, I want melodeefree-mysistershotfriend you to come in too , but not tonight. Any night but tonight."
The walk to mysistershotfriend the doorstep takes an melodeefree-mysistershotfriend eternity. Why is she doing this? It's not too free late. She can take free him to the doorway, give him a proper kiss, and then tell him he has to go melodeefree-mysistershotfriend. He might melodeefree-mysistershotfriend be a little melodee angry, but he should understand, shouldn't he? Why is this so melodeefree-mysistershotfriend difficult?
Maria gets to the doorway, and she takes out her keys. Stop and kiss him now. Stop melodeefree-mysistershotfriend and kiss him now . But it's already melodeefree-mysistershotfriend too free late. Maria has already opened the melodee door and let Roberto in.
Roberto melodee takes off his jack and tie, throws them on melodee the floor, and spreads himself out on the sofa as if he owns melodeefree-mysistershotfriend the place. Maria has never seen him act this way before. She's a little scared melodee -- and a melodee little melodee excited.
"What?!"
