THE KEY TO MY HEART

49

" Silvia and Julia, are you ready to go downstairs to go golfing with Alexa and Jaime?"

They said yes. We leave with our golf shoes.  I have been doing better at golfing.  Silvia and I have been practicing at my home more when my wife is traveling to check on our clinics.   My wife is clueless.  She knows Silvia plays well. We meet them downstairs and head out in our rentals.

" Cindy, let's bet that your wife will  get three in a hole on the first try. Five thousand for each one in cash only. I don't want to claim it on my taxes. If she does you will pay her the same and buy us us lunch at the country club."

Cindy thinks about it why she is driving us. Julia tells Cindy not to waste money on a bet. Cindy agrees when she is parking. We all get out. We make our way inside.  Alexa had reserved a time and three golf carts. Silvia will drive one. We will go with our spouses.
My wife tells Alexa and Jaime about the bet. They get in on it, too, except for the lunch part.  We  start at the first hole. We all go, and she makes the first one, and it is windy, too.

" Two more to go, Julia. You can do it."

Julia shakes her head. She knows she we will win the bet.
We are now on the ninth hole. We all make it on the first attempt.

" Silvia, she has been practicing, and it's apparent at the score she currently has. You suckered me."
" Yes, you agreed all you will all have to pay us.  I was determined for her not to lose so badly.  We have been practicing while you are checking on the clinics. I got tired of you teasing her a lot."

Alexa shakes her head.

"MOM , IT'S OKAY I DON'T MIND PAYING YOU BOTH. I AM PROUD OF YOU FOR YOUR DEDICATION LIKE YOU TAUGHT ME YEARS AGO."  "I don't  mind paying either. Cindy, you were a good mentor to me years ago.  I never cared for how you teased her."

We continue to golf. My wife apologizes to me.  I forgive and kiss her. I ended up making 5 and ended up winning a Mercedes.  I get to choose the color. We are eating and enjoying our lunch.

"Babe a new car. Now you can sell your other Mercedes that has a lot of miles on it." " True, I will sell and send the funds to the hospital in Los Angeles in Silvia parents name, since she worked with me on improving my swings."

Silvia, thanks me.  We were at the bank and  I asked the teller that the money I was given to have them write a check out to the hospital.  The man did. I signed it  and I handed it to Silvia to give to them when she goes to Los Angeles on her next business trip. She hugs me and thanks me. We leave for the hotel.

" Babe you are being generous. Have you decided on the color?" " Yes, black. We will need to go to the dealership after we shower. I would like it to be delivered the morning of when we leave."

We finally return.  Alexa and Jaime go to their suite and tell us they will see us tomorrow.  They want to go shopping to buy their parents a gift each. Silvia tells them if they want to get antiques ask for Sheryl and tell her I referred you two. Silvia forewarned them she is straight but will flirt. She does this to get the sale. They all make commissions, plus she will give you a good price. I texted Alexa the address.  They thank me and go their way. We both tell her that was nice of her. She says it's nothing because her family has spent much money in that antique store. We are in our room, undressing and getting in the shower.  We start kissing and fondling one another, which leads to sex.  We are now done and leaving. We are in the elevator.

" You do know that they know about us three?"

They both look stunned.  I tell them they have known since Lake Tahoe  because they still have a hard time with their looks at me. They thought they were doing better.  I told them many others, too, especially Cindy's family.  Julia asks what about her friends and family.  I tell her maybe Jake only.   They both say shit. I laugh and tell them Lisa and Taylor did mention they are awful.  We finally arrive at the dealership.  They have Julia's name and drivers license information. We go inside and a sales lady tells us she was expecting us and congrats Julia.  She says we sponsor it every year during Mardi Gras, but only a few ever win a Mercedes.  Julia asks her for it to be in black and requests for it to be delivered the morning we leave. The lady tells her they will have to charge her because they expected her to take it now. She asks the cost and writes a check and hands it to her. She tells the day and the time we will be leaving.  Cindy tells the lady the number on the plane and what airport and the hangar number.  She asks the lady to read the information back. She had it correct. Julia signs the bill of sale and we leave. 
Silvia cellphone rings. She answers it.  She tells whoever she is speaking with  she is sorry and will be there.  She ends the call.

" My sister just informed her husband had an aneurysm and was okay after the surgery but died a
few a hours ago. I told her I would be come to the celebration of life. He requested I be there.  They are going to cremate him. I have not seen his family,  since I broke up with him. I have no idea how they will react when they see me. I will leave after I repack. I will be driving."
" We will go with you with some of our security.  You and your sister are civil but the others no one knows like you said."
" We can go in my new Mercedes.  I can break it in. Plus we can check on our clinic and you can do the same on your businesses. This way you don't have to go back for a while."

While Cindy is driving she is speaking with her sister.  She has her cellphone connected to the rental. We all can hear their conversation.  She still doesn't trust her sister.  She asks if there is anything else she can do. Her sister says no, but Rick wanted them to be sisters again . It's what she wants too. We know she is leary. She tells them they can take it day by day. She ends the conversation.

" I am not certain. Cindy, you know how she is. "  " Yes this is why we are going. She won't do anything while I am there nor will her friends."

We arrive and the valet driver gets the keys. They know us all. No ticket is given.
I tell them a long Island ice tea is what I want to drink. Cindy knows this was my drink that I drank when I met her. We go to the bar and sit at a table. The place is not packed yet. I ordered one and ask them to make it strong using top shelf liquor only.  Cindy orders  a beer and Julia orders a berry monitor requesting top shelf liquor. The waiter brings back nuts for us to eat.  Cindy asks for two more bowls. I know she doesn't want me to get drunk. I ended up having two. We walked to a nearby restaurant and had dinner. The food is absorbing the alcohol. I am not naive.  They both know how I feel and don't want me to get drunk . We are in bed.  We fall asleep.  All of my dreams of are of Rick Willams and I.  A well known construction worker owner.
