A handsome man waves me over
and tells me he is having a party on his yacht.
"Would you care to join us?"
Against all the steadiness in me,
I wanted to say "no thank you''
but it is has been such a long hot summer...
I took the plunge and agreed to go by boat out to his yacht.
Besides....He is very distinguished,, an Italian Count.
{how bad could this be?}
Well here on the deck
we get to talking and it turns out we once knew each other.
Many , many years ago....back then
I was flown over to St. Martin and re-did his casino there { The Maho Reef Club}
while working for F.S.Schumacher.
I remembered this suave gentleman clearly now.
It was all coming back to me.
I had a little crush.
He told me that there really was no party after all.
....and he had planned it that way
and that he had been following my career all these years.
Was I to be flattered or freaked out?
Hell.....I will go with the first thought.
BE FLATTERED I say to myself.
Then after cocktails , wine, and dinner....
it was getting very warm in the room!!!!
Very.
Antonio {his name} wanted to show me the rest of the ship.
So he did.
You could have knocked me over with a feather in the bathroom.
It was soooooo gorgeous.
And he was so smooth. Just as I had remembered him to be.
And finally the room Antonio really wanted to show me!!!
What shall I do?
Whatever shall I do?
Ladies....i need your help on this one!!!! please
