The Beginning.
Juanita was helping a friend lay sod . Her back was hurting and her arms and legs were on fire. She had done put up her long honey color hair four times and till it kept falling down. The sod delivery guy pulled up in the front yard with two more pallets. really she screamed in her head. It's never ending. As she pushed the wheel barrel to the front she slipped and would of fell if it wasnt for the delivery guy. Wow juanita said in her head. What a set of arms. She held her hand out since you done had your arms around wi will give you my name. She laughed its Juanita Berry. He held took her hand and said John Black nice to meet you. After that day they were good friends.
Fifteen years later. No, no this cant be. I just got this truck. So much for a guy saying nothing was wrong with it when I bought it. I pick up my cell and call John. John sweetie hows my bestie doing. John laughed . Good I am at work but good. You could still hear the laughter in his voice. I got a tiny little bitty fav I need you to do. I say to him he laughs what is it. Does it require bail money or hide a body. Nope I replied but if my ex dont leave me alone I am going to need both of those. I said laughing. Well spit it out. He said. Can you help me my battery cable broke and I have no tools. Will you be my night and shining armor. I promise not to pull your ponytail this time. I said. I will do it give me 30 minutes and I will be there and by the way you can undress your fingers now. He says laughing still. How did you know i asked. You all ways do sugar. He said. Got go see ya in a few he said.
The last few years had been rough on me seems the only men attracted to me are the losers. The ones that drain your bank account and wreck your car then say see you'll three of my exs done that to me. John had been there for me through it all. Three months ago his girlfriend of 16 years walked out leaving a dear john letter and a empty checking account. I been telling John for years she was a bitch. She hated it when we talked and always accused us of sleeping together but we have never even done anything but hug. If that's wrong then everyone that hugs people need to be locked up.
Thirty minutes later john pulled his jacked up jeep in the yard of my bosses house. He went to the back and pulled out a battery terminal. I popped the hood of the truck and said about time slow poke. He laughed. He pulled the hood up on my chevy and started putting the terminal on. I walked over and want me to get any tools out of the jeep. He said nope got them right here. He patted his back pocket. Which drew my eyes to his butt. Wow I thought nice ass. Wow where did that thought come from. When he finnished he dropped the hood and said. Next time you want to see me ya dont have to abuse your poor truck. Haaaa has I said who would want to see you. I said with a smile on my face.i am hoping you. Will you have dinner with me tonight. He asked. His hand was at the small of my back and for some reason it felt like that is were it belong. Yeah what time. I asked. What about 7pm. He asked. Perfect I said with butterfly in my stomach. This is just john you have had a hundred meals with him so calm down stomach.
John left there nervous. Juanita has on a tank top, tight Jean's and boots on. For the first time I couldnt take my eyes off her. I keep looking down her tank top I could see the top of her lace bra. That's when I popped of and asked her to go out to dinner with me. Bonnie dumped me a couple of months ago claiming I had sleep with Juanita. It wasnt true nor had it crossed my mind until a few moments ago. When I looked into her blueish green with a light creamy brown star burst around the center eyes I was lost. All I could think about was kissing her. Hell I have seen her in her bra and panties at that pond we all use to go skinny dipping in. Never did those thoughts cross my mind then. She was my friend. She knew me better then any one. She has cried over those idiot's when they dumped her and I was her rock and shoulders to cry on. What the hell am I thinking. I know what I am thinking about that place bra and her boobs. Stop I say to my self as I put my sun shades on and pull my cap lower. What's done is done.
