A dream I had while you were working one Saturday afternoon. I am lying here in bed nodding off when I get a text. It is from Amanda. It simply reads “I'm going to call you in a few seconds. Please answer I need a favor.”
I'm not sure what to think of this so I sit with my phone in my hand. After about 40sec it starts to ring. I pick up with a “yep.”
She says “have... well we have a favor to ask of you.” I'm playing this game down at Alisha's with some of my girlfriends. It is kinda like a scavenger hunt. The first team to complete all seven of there tasks wins. Everyone throws in $80 to play, and with seven of us playing its enough money where Alisha and I really want to win.
“Well what can I help you find?”
Amanda responds slowly “It’s more what you can do for us then it is a find kinda thing”
I hear Alisha say in the background that the game has a true or dare twist to it.
Now I'm thinking if I don't help, I'm an Asshole & if I do, I'm a dead man!
They need to find a somewhat good-looking guy to put on a Thong and model it for a picture. We know I am far from shy and like wearing little to no clothes, more so in front of hot females. The problem being these females are your daughters. Plus the fact that it is in your apt. well you’re at work.
The only thing I can think to say is “I guess I would be just fine doing that for them, if they clear it with you first.” that way if you say no then I'm off the hook. If you say yes then I only did it because you said it was ok.
Only a few minutes go by when my phone rings. I answer trying to sound up beat. “Hey babe what’s up?”
There is a small pause, “Well if you don't mind helping them, its cool. They will be up in a min or two with a camera.”
“Hey wait you want to give a little help on what to wear?
Your reply is short “The Red & Black pair, or maybe the snake ones,” and with that you’re gone.
Not at all the help I was looking for! I can't decide, and I don't feel that modeling them both would win me any points. So I find both pair and I'm standing in front of the mirror racking my brain. When the door to the apt. opens. I call to the girls and tell them of my little problem. Before they start walking around to find me standing naked in front of the mirror with a thong in each hand.
After hearing my problem they stop in the living room, and offer the suggestions. “Well try them both on and we will tell you which one we like the best.”
Not really sure this is the best idea, but not wanting to argue and end up drawing this out. I give in. You had said Red & Black first so I'll start there. I put it on and get it adjusted. I pause before heading down the hallway towards your wide eyed, and opened mouthed daughters. At this point I have to stop and ask “so that look is it good or that bad?”
It takes them a moment to respond. Alisha with a “those are good”
Followed by a “Sure” from Amanda.
I turn to head back down the hall, asking over my shoulder. “But you still need to see the other ones?”
Both reply “I think we better”
Feeling far from sure of myself I change and return to the living room. Feeling pleased with myself after receiving a “Woe” from one and a “Wow” from the other.
They quickly recover snap the picture and head for the door. Both giving a long last look over there shoulders as they say “Thanks”
Not that it was an overly fun experience, but I can say there have not been that many times in the years we have spent together that I have been more proud of you then I was at that moment.
