Plain Jane
She stared out of her window at the school across the street, it’s that time. The feeling of emptiness inside was overwhelming. She watched as the mothers collected their children from the classrooms. How happy their little faces appear when they see their mothers. She noticed a young mother from the corner of her eyes carrying a baby in a harness strapped across her back. Its little hand strokes her face and she smiled down at him then kissed his little fingers every one of them. She sighed; how fulfilling that must be for the mother she mused. If only…
Gazing at her refection, sighing heavily – she declared in earnest she’d sell her soul to be beautiful. Instantly, there’s a knock at the door. It’s a tall-dark-handsome-stranger. “I’m here to accept your offer” he smiled showing perfect teeth, clipboard and contract in hand.
“What offer?”
“Your soul for beauty.”
“I want to be beautiful and irresistible to all men, even you – I want the power to pick, choose and refuse safely without stalkers or hangers on. I want to call the shots without risk to my safety. I want men to admire me and shower me with gifts. Most importantly, I must only be able to copulate with men from the highest gene pool.”
The handsome-stranger yawns “Is that it?”
“No, I want to be able to call you at any time. Now that’s it.”
The contract lists her requests verbatim. Grabbing her hand, he pricked her finger “sign here.”
“But I haven’t read the small print.” A small drop of blood lands on the paper - her signature appeared.
“You can read it now it’s yours,” shoving the page into her hand.
12-months has passed and 98 men. Now financially secured yet she was still not pregnant. She began to think she would never experience life growing inside her or little fingers against her cheeks. She had read the small-print; ‘soul redeemable in 24 months or after seducing100 men which-ever came first – LIFE changes everything.’
Picking up her receiver she dialled 666. The door opened and the handsome-stranger came in “What do you want?”
“I want you to make love to me as if I were your one true love.”
He started to protest but is captivated by her beauty. Naked, he stood before her. He is everything she imagined – rock hard body and generously proportioned. His sweet kisses and warm lips around hardened nipples sent shockwaves throughout her body – she’s wet and ready to receive him deep inside. She begged him to enter, her body hungry for his seed. Locked in his fiery embraces; his orgasm rocks her to the core. She stays motionless in his embrace not wanting the moment to end.
His number on speed dial - she calls him every night for 3 months.
It’s the 24th month. The door opens, it’s the handsome-stranger – there is a debt-to-be-paid. She is smiling up at him as the child strokes her face. “Say hello to daddy.”
