BLOCK OF FLATS
I drove past a block of flats and some of the flats have their light on and some have their light switched off, as I drove I looked into the windows.
Flat one is Ben and Susan who are newlyweds and are just moving in together for the first time and you can see the excitement, joy, and hope in their faces as they move their belongings, this is exciting says Ben as he tries to lift the sofa all by himself, Susan answered exciting and scary as well; exciting because I love you and can't wait to go on this adventure with you but scary as well because I plan on doing this once and I am afraid I might mess it up. As they were chatting away a voice behind Ben said get out of my way I am in a hurry well that voice belongs to Jane a recently divorced lady who is running late for work you see Jane met Drew her ex at a friend's party five years earlier.
Jane noticed Drew not only because he was really good looking but he was strangely quiet, for a well dressed handsome guy this dude is quite Jane thought to herself, I will make him talk she continued still lost in her thought so what's the plan she thought as she walks towards Drew who was still sitting all by himself thinking whoosh eight months without sex my balls are heavy and it's killing me, whatever it takes tonight I have to get laid, but how? he asks himself then Jane said hello as she sat by his side Drew was caught unaware and he just sat there mute for some seconds before saying hi am sorry I was carried away in my thought.
Jane wore a red mini dress which makes her ridiculously sexy, the sofa they were sitting on was a bit low so Jane could not close her legs properly, and immediately Drew saw what he later described as picture-perfect, he could not control nor hide his erection and for some reasons, Jane could not keep her eyes off his trousers as it starts to grow like Pinocchio's nose.
Drew felt embarrassed and came clean and from there they got talking and got married two years later, theirs was a love story from the story books but did not last long because they followed a friend to a swing club who dared them to swap partners which they did ,the partners they swapped with are Dan and Lola who in the past months have been having problems in their marriage much was not known about Dan but Lola we know is a beautiful woman , a fantastic lawyer who is not only ridiculously good in bed but will do anything to be happy and unfortunately this time Drew was the happiness after the swap night Jane described sex with Dan as boring and quick while Drew did not say much he just shrugged and get on with whatever he was doing but the truth is when they got to the hotel room Lola took off her clothes slowly exposing her firmly looking breast pointed as a ball pen then she sat on Drew rubbing her chest on his face ,she then reach into his pants and did all lot of things that is too explicit to write and too complicated to explain but above all what blew Drew's mind was how Lola made him last a lot longer in bed than his wife Jane , that was how their marriage ended in divorce though Dan promised Drew he will come for him may be he will may be he will not who knows.
Flat three belongs to three friends who graduated from the university recently Sam, Gerald, and Sola. Sam is from Northwest England a software engineer whose love for food means that the only search criteria for a home are a big kitchen, he practically lives in the kitchen and his friends call him alien because he never gets fats he eats a lot but somehow never gets fat maybe he is truly an alien who knows? Gerald on the other hand is from Scotland a neat freak, his room is so neat it looks like a picture from a catalog, he is very lovable but because everything with Gerald has to be scheduled with military precision including sex no wonder why all his relationships end abruptly that been said his current girlfriend Leila is a bit of an enigma today she is vegan tomorrow she is a restaurant having steak but one thing they have in common is they are both comfortable with scheduling their love life, time table for everything including morning sex on Thursdays and late-night sex on Sunday.
Sola, who is originally from Nigeria is an engineering graduate who is very handy at fixing almost everything and really likes to say if this were to be Nigeria it would have been worse or better, or sometimes it would not have happened but he really loves it in England.
Flat four lives Craig and Beverly, married but are really loud at everything the boys next door could hear them doing everything especially when they are having sex which seems to be almost all day every day, Craig met Beverly in an office, a lawyers chamber, they were both there as moral support for their friends who were about to be separated. Jay and Mary have everything working for them and they agreed on virtually everything except for money Jay believe in spending first and thinking later while Mary, on the other hand, is an economist who likes to budget and plan for every penny and save the rest, this has been the only problem in their marriage but unfortunately, they could not continue when Jay came home with a £2500 watch which he bought without discussing with Mary, that was it for her and they both agreed that a trial separation for a few months will help both of them think and then seek help and then decide what step to take next While waiting for the couple Craig saw Beverly sitting by herself, he walked up to her and said whatever he did please don't forgive him it's my turn now, Beverly turned to him and smiled and the rest they say is history.
I am home now maybe next time I will have more to say who knows goodnight.
