OK, that threw a wrench in the whole chain.........
It was hot. His fan was kaput. He should have shelled out a fin and bought the new one Eddie was trying to unload. But he'd spent his last dime at the track and was flat.
He watched her silouette as she approached the doorway. He could tell from this side of the etched glass that this broad would be a humdinger. She was all curves.
She opened the door, he slowly scanned the buxom beauty's body, from tip to toe. She was a knock-out alright. She stood in the doorway, adjusted her hat, produced a thin tube of lipstick and reapplied the fire engine rouge to her luscious lips. She tapped the door shut with her foot, and strut across the floor in heels a masocist inspired. The expensive wool suit, tailored to mirror every curve, clung to her skin. She had the kind of body that would make a bad man go good, and a good man turn bad. I had a feeling this would be my lucky day! She had bad intentions written all over her.
She approached my desk, I slowly slid my feet off the top and found my mouth hanging agog. I snapped it shut and stood to greet her.
She gracefully extended her gloved hand.
"Welcome to my Dick.....Uh, I mean my private dick, we investigate your privates,
ah no ah.......That is to say, Good evening miss, Welcome to Private Dick's, the Investigation Company, how can I help you?"
Her devilish eyebrow was raised in amusement, and her hand was still in my sweaty mitts, I waited...........
"Hewwo, I geth we arr bowf a widdow ton-tide."
And then she began to laugh and laugh.
