Chapter 8 Aged

      Tommy enquired about the Rehab visit to Marco.  "Marco had blue lips. He seemed to be on a bad hangover," the employee said.

     After the ordeal simmered a bit, Tommy had a face to face with Marco.  Marco hesitated before confessing, "I've been struggling with fentanyl addiction. It's been hard to shake." Tommy felt a sense of responsibility towards his employee, and he knew he had to act fast. He immediately sought legal advice and learned about the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). With the help of his lawyer, he was able to work out a plan to help Marco recover from his addiction without losing his job.  Under the ADA, employers are required to make reasonable accommodations for employees with disabilities. Tommy made sure that Marco received the necessary medical treatment and support he needed to recover. He also ensured that Marco's job was protected during this time.  It wasn't easy, but Marco successfully completed his treatment and returned to 3884 stronger and more determined than ever. 

     Tommy was proud of him and felt a sense of fulfillment knowing that he had made a positive impact on someone's life.  As the business grew, Tommy became more involved in the community, giving back through charitable contributions and volunteering. He felt a sense of responsibility to use his success to make a difference in the lives of others. He even started a program to help struggling gigolos get back on their feet.

     One day, as Mr. Stepovich was sitting in his office, he received a call from an old client. She had been one of his first clients and had since become a close friend. She told him that she had been diagnosed with a terminal illness and had one final request.  She wated to spend one last night with him.Tommy was hesitant at first, he was a boss, but he ultimately agreed to her request.  A terminal  request .  It was very different to perform with the Grim Reaper standing over the bed.

     That night, as they lay in bed together, he realized the true value of his work. He wasn't just selling sex, he was selling companionship, intimacy, and a sense of connection. He had helped so many people.  Tommy knew that he was making a real difference in the world.  As he lay next to his client, holding her hand, he felt a sense of peace and contentment. He had found his true calling, and he knew that he was meant to be a gigolo.

Chapter 7 Mr. Help

     As the boss, he was now in a position to help the employees that worked for him.  He felt like a superhero.

     It was easy to be outgoing with his workers.  He owned 3884.  Liam, 22, White, made Tommy laugh.  He seemed like an unpolished comedian.  The jokes just rolled out.  Funny as fuck, too.  Noah was easy to recognize as a gigolo.  Noah had perfect blonde hair, and it was hard to tell his ethnicity from one day to the next.  He talked about finally getting a GED.  Oliver, the old White dude, as he was referred to, was funny acting.  He could pass for a teenager, but he was 30 years old.  Elijah, Spanish, was an 18 year old book worm.  He was a lady killer at Barnes and Noble.  He didn't think I knew how he stalked me.  Nosey little sissy. He will answer for any ransomware attacks.  James had a perfect job to complement his ebony, MMA physique.  At 29, he was beginning to sway away from looking for a career in MMA.  William was 49, but he looked like he was 20.  Must be the curry.  He had a dirty Pakistani accent.  Benjamin, white, was a punk.  Nobody knew his real hair color.  He was 23, the go-to for the weirdos.  Lucas, Spanish, wanted to own a McDonald's one day.  He'd swear by it.  At 22, he had time to work towards that goal.  Good job, kid.  Henry was a smart ass, punk, white.  A 30 year old that spealized in emotional turmoil.  Then, we also had Theodore.  He was 21, Black, and he already had an MBA.  Congratulations, youngster.  If we opened another location, he was training to be the next boss.

     Tommy noticed one of his employees, Marco, 23, Spanish, wasn't his usual self lately. Marco had been with the company for two years, and he was one of the best performers. Now, his work was slipping. He missed appointments, and when he did show up, he wasn't as enthusiastic as he used to be. Tommy pulled him aside one day and asked him what was going on. "No worries," he said.

     Tommy decided to take action and have Marco followed home. He hired a private investigator to keep an eye on him and gather any useful information. After a few days of surveillance, the PI reported back to Tommy with Marco's address, which turned out to be in a sketchy part of town in some adult-only apartments on the southwest side of town. 

     Tommy took the reigns.  He used his 2017, Blacked out, Ford Mustang, GT. Inconspicuous, right.  He waited.  Marco got on schedule.  Tommy got in step.  At the apartments, he had to park illegally.  It was late, though, no issues.  Marco sat in the car for awhile, then he went home. Tommy was curious about what Marco was doing in his car for an hour before going to his apartment. He decided to send someone to keep an eye on Marco from a distance to find out what he was up to. After a few days of monitoring, the mystery was solved.  Marco was on fentanyl.  Like eight glasses of water a day.  His money wasn't suffering, though.  As a boss, Tommy knew that an influencer can lead the flock astray.  "This fentanyl shit needs to go away. Make this kid understand that he's great but that shit will destroy him", said Tommy.  "Yes sir, boss.  We got this," said the company maintenance man.

     Tommy didn't hear anymore about it.  Marco began to keep up with himself.  Then, Tommy received a call.  Marco's dad had him placed into Rehab.  He had a coworker visit him to get the details.  Tommy genuinely wanted to know if 3884 could help him.

Chapter 6 Moving on up.

     He started by reaching out, and began acquiring a genuine staff. New hires had a marketing contract. They had calls to make and scripts to read. Tommy spoke constantly with his staff.  He plotted, on the map, all of the best zones for exploitation.  Success was earned. 

     Tommy sat in his lawyer's office, going over the legalities of his gigolo service. He had come a long way since his days in jail, and he was determined to make sure everything was done legally. "You understand the potential liability issues, Mr. Stepovich?" the lawyer asked. Tommy nodded. "I do. That's why I want to make sure we have all of our bases covered."

     The lawyer went over the legal requirements for operating a gigolo service, including licensing and registration, as well as the importance of having contracts with both clients and employees." Your employees need to be properly vetted and trained," the lawyer said. "And you need to have clear policies in place for dealing with any complaints or issues that may arise."  

     Tommy took notes, making sure to ask questions whenever he didn't understand something. He wanted to make sure he was fully informed and prepared. Once the legal requirements were all squared away, Tommy turned his attention to the business side of things. He met with his accountant, going over his finances and making sure everything was in order for tax season. He also began to think about expanding his gigolo service. He had a loyal client base, but he knew there was potential for growth. He considered offering more specialized services, such as fantasy roleplaying or BDSM. However, he knew he needed to proceed with caution. He didn't want to risk losing the trust of his clients by branching out too quickly. He needed to make sure he had the resources and staff to support any new services he offered. 

     As he continued to grow his business, Tommy made sure to give back to his community. He donated a portion of his profits to local charities:  Salvation Army, Save the Children, and the American Red Cross.  Tommy offered discounted services to those in need.  He was proud of what he had built.  He knew he had come a long way from his days in jail. He was now a respected businessman, and he was determined to continue growing his gigolo service while always operating ethically and legally.  Tommy smiled to himself as he left the lawyer's office, feeling confident and taken care of.  His future was lining up.

     Mr. Tomislav Stepovich was in a new tax bracket.  Clients respected the brand, now. Long term clients were also giving feedback. Tommy's business continued to flourish, and he found himself with a surplus of cash on hand. He decided to invest in his business by opening up a brick-and-mortar location.  He consulted with a business attorney to ensure he was following all legal requirements for opening up a physical location. They went over lease agreements, permits, and zoning laws. Everything was done by the book.

     Mr. Stepovich contacted an associate, named Bentlee.  He was familiar with some great leasing arrangements.  He emailed him and quickly received an answer.  There were some PDFs to spill over.  He was referred to a website.  He new the areas and looked at MAPS to see the details.  His choices were based on price per square foot per year.  He estimated needed square feet plus room for growth.  After some time, he found a location that was perfect for his business. It was in a busy commercial area, with plenty of foot traffic. He signed a lease agreement with the landlord, Bentlee, which included provisions for safety and security.  Tommy also made sure to obtain all necessary permits and licenses from the city. He didn't want to risk his business being shut down due to a lack of compliance. He worked closely with his attorney to ensure he was following all zoning laws and that the property was up to code.  Once the location was up and running, Tommy hired a team of lawyers to draft contracts for his employees.

     The name of the business was simply the street address number of the building, 3884.  Simple, yet tasteful. 

     Tommy was careful, he wanted to make sure that everyone was protected and that there was no room for misinterpretation. He implemented a strict confidentiality agreement for both clients and employees to ensure privacy and discretion. He also ensured that all of his employees were properly trained on safety protocols and legal requirements.  Tommy knew that the gigolo industry was still largely unregulated, but he wanted to set a higher standard for his business. He made sure that his employees were above board and that they were operating in a legal and ethical manner.  As his business, 3884, grew, Tommy found himself facing new legal challenges. He sought the advice of his legal team on issues such as taxes, insurance, and liability. He wanted to ensure that his business was protected from any potential legal disputes.Tommy was proud of 3884. He knew that there were still negative stereotypes associated with the gigolo industry, but he was determined to change that. He wanted to show that it was possible to operate a successful, legal, and ethical gigolo service.  He continued to work closely with his legal team to stay up to date on any changes in laws and regulations that could affect his business. Tommy knew that by being proactive and staying on top of legal requirements, he could protect his business and provide a valuable service to his clients.  As he looked back on his journey, Tommy knew that he had come a long way from his days as a struggling gigolo. He was now a successful businessman, who had overcome adversity and had built a thriving company. He was proud of what he had accomplished and looked forward to continuing to grow 3884, while always operating within the boundaries of the law.

Chapter 5 Research student.

     The next morning, Tommy woke up feeling a newfound sense of determination. He was going to make the most of his gigolo career and turn it into a thriving business. 

     First, he needed to do some research. He spent the day pouring over books and articles about the gigolo industry, taking notes and jotting down ideas. He learned about the different types of clients and what they were looking for in a gigolo. He read about the importance of discretion and confidentiality, and how to build a loyal client base. As the day turned into night, Tommy's head was swimming with information. He decided to take a break and grab some dinner at a nearby diner, Denny's. As he sat at the counter, sipping his coffee, a middle-aged woman sidled up to him. "Hello there," she said, batting her eyelashes. She was a milf. Not at all a hooker. She had grab-tempting tits. Her jeans didn't lessen the impression. Cute face, too. Her vibe was mature. 

     Tommy smiled politely, "Hi."  The woman leaned in closer, "You're a handsome young man. What brings you to this part of town?" Tommy raised an eyebrow. "Research," he said simply. The woman's face fell. "Oh. Well, if you ever need a...subject for your research, you know where to find me." Tommy chuckled, "Thanks, I think I've got all the research I need.  The research I want is going to be hard" She enjoyed herself. The waitress brought Tommy's order.  Tommy played his hand.  Milf-muffin laid her cards out.  She agreed.  Erection material, right there. The woman shrugged, anticipating their subsequent meeting, and walked away.  Tommy finished his meal in peace. 

     He slurped the freshly poured coffee, and thought about the different types of clients he had read about. Some were lonely, looking for companionship. Others were seeking excitement and adventure. And then there were those who simply wanted someone to talk to.Tommy made a mental note to keep these different types of clients in mind as he built his gigolo business. He knew that by catering to their specific needs and desires, he could build a loyal client base and make a name for himself in the industry.  

     As Tommy paid his bill and walked out of the diner, he felt a renewed sense of purpose. He was going to be the best gigolo he could be, and he was going to make a lot of money doing it.

The next day, Tommy hit the streets to do some field research. He walked around different parts of town, observing the types of people who lived there and the businesses that were thriving.  He walked in front of a fancy hotel, and decided to go in.  He was curious about what kind of clientele it attracted. As he walked through the lobby, he saw a woman sitting in a plush chair, staring at her phone. 

     Tommy approached her and introduced himself. "Hi there, I'm Tommy. Do you mind if I ask you a few questions?" He gave off a warm, friendly vibe. The woman looked up at him, intrigued, "Sure, go ahead." Tommy asked her about her job, her hobbies, and her interests. He listened intently as she spoke, taking mental notes about the things that seemed to excite her and make her happy.  Interesting.  Money making knowledge. As he left the hotel, Tommy felt a surge of confidence. He was getting better at reading people and figuring out what they wanted. He knew that this would be a valuable skill in his gigolo business.  Over the next few days, Tommy spent his time studying business models and developing a plan for his gigolo career. He decided to focus on providing high-quality service to his clients, while also building a reputation for discretion and confidentiality. He also decided to create a luxurious website, and some social media accounts, to promote his services. He spent hours designing the website and creating content that would appeal to his target audience.

     As the weeks went by, Tommy's business began to grow. He started getting more and more clients, and his reputation as a top-notch gigolo began to spread. He even hired a few other gigolos to work for him, expanding his business and taking on more clients.  Despite the challenges of the gigolo industry, Tommy felt fulfilled and happy. He was doing what he loved, and he was making a lot of money doing it. He knew that there would be bumps in the road along the way, but he was confident that he could handle anything that came his way.  As he lay in bed at night, Tommy thought about all of the people he had met along the way. Some had been lonely, looking for companionship. Others had been seeking adventure and excitement. And then there were those who simply wanted someone to talk to.  Tommy knew that he had the skills and experience to meet all of those needs and more. He was determined to be the best gigolo he could be, and he knew that he had a bright future ahead of him.

     As Tommy's business continued to grow, he became more and more successful. He began to travel to different cities, meeting new clients and expanding his network of contacts.  One day, Tommy received a call from a woman named Julia. She was a wealthy socialite who lived in New York City and was in need of a gigolo for a high-profile event. Tommy was thrilled to have been chosen for the job, and he immediately began making preparations for the trip.  

     When he arrived in New York, Tommy was amazed by the city's energy and class. He checked into a luxury hotel and began to get ready for the event.  As he was getting dressed, Tommy realized that he had forgotten his cufflinks. He quickly called the hotel's concierge, but they didn't have any cufflinks available. Tommy started to panic, he couldn't show up to the event without the proper attire.  Just then, there was a knock at the door. It was Julia, holding a small box. "I heard you needed some cufflinks," she said with a smile.  Tommy was grateful and amazed by her kindness. As he put on the cufflinks, he realized that this was a special kind of gigolo relationship. This is one that went beyond the physical.The event was a success, and Tommy impressed all of Julia's guests with his charm and wit. Afterward, Julia took him out for a night on the town, showing him some of her favorite spots in the city.  Over the next few days, Tommy and Julia spent a lot of time together. They went to art galleries, took long walks in Central Park, and even went on a helicopter ride over the city.  As their time together drew to a close, Tommy realized that he had feelings for Julia that went beyond the gigolo-client relationship. He didn't know how to tell her, though, and he didn't want to risk jeopardizing their business relationship.  

     On the day of his departure, Julia gave Tommy a gift.  It was a small, silver bracelet. "This is for you," she said. "To remember me by."  Tommy was touched by the gesture, and he knew that he would never forget Julia or their time together.  As he boarded the plane back to Dallas, Tommy felt a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment. He had built a successful business and had met some incredible people along the way. He knew that there would be more challenges and adventures ahead, but he was ready to face them head-on. Mr. Tomislav Stepovich, once a young man with nothing but a dream, had become a successful entrepreneur and gigolo extraordinaire. He had found his place in the world and was ready to take on whatever came his way.

     Then, Evelyn meandered in his direction.  He couldn't see the case she carried.  A psych patient that didn't remember she had ordered sex. Evelyn refused to ask, politely, for a refund.

Chapter 4. A lookback.  

     As Tommy delved deeper into the world of sex work, he becsme increasingly more familiar with the ins and outs of being a gigolo. He learned that being a gigolo was much more than just having sex with clients.

     Tommy sat at the bar, nursing a drink and chatting with his coworker, Max. Max had been in the business for years, and Tommy had quickly learned that he was a valuable source of information."So, Max, what's the deal with being a gigolo?" Tommy asked. Max raised an eyebrow. "Ask fucking Google?" Tommy rolled his eyes. "I know what it means to have sex for money, Max. I'm talking about the other stuff. How do you keep your clients wet?" Max took a sip of his drink before responding.Tommy and Max ordered another round of drinks and continued to chat. 

     Tommy found himself feeling more and more comfortable with the idea of the job, despite the initial shock of his first encounter with a client.  As the night wore on, Tommy's mind started to wander. He couldn't help but wonder what his mother would think if she knew what he was doing for a living. She had always taught him to work hard and be honest, but here he was, making a living by selling his body.  

     Max must have noticed the change in Tommy's demeanor because he asked, "Hey, you fucking alright?" Tommy shrugged. "Yeah, I'm feling this Schnapps, is this cinnamon?" Max nodded, "Yeah man. Anyway. The job. Not the best, and not the worst, either. It's not exactly the most traditional career path. Think about tact. Finesse the trick, bro." Tommy took a deep breath, "I just wish there was another way, you know? I mean, less, I dunno. I don't want to disappoint her. My mom.  Sometimes, I look at the big picture. Is this something that she'd respect?" Max placed a hand on Tommy's shoulder, "Look, Tommy. You're a grown man, and you're making a good living doing what you do. Your mom may not understand it, but as long as you're happy and safe, that's all that matters.  The money is nice, too!" 

     Tommy smiled, feeling a weight lifted off his shoulders. "Thanks, Max. I appreciate that." Max grinned, "Anytime, man. Now, let's finish these drinks and hit the town. We've got clients to please, am I right, or fucking what?" Tommy laughed, feeling more confident and at ease than he had in weeks. "Maybe being a gigolo wasn't so bad after all. It's all about being a good listener. Some of these women just want someone to talk to, you know? They're lonely, and they want someone to listen to them. They get wet." Tommy nodded, taking another sip of his drink, moving on in thought. "Yeah, I get that. But what if they're boring? What if I fall asleep during their monologue?" 

     Max chuckled, "Well, then you better hope you're getting paid by the hour, my friend. But seriously, you just gotta find something interesting about them. Ask them about their hobbies, their passions, their favorite movies. You might be surprised at what you have in common." Tommy raised an eyebrow. "What if they're into some weird stuff?" Max grinned, "Oh, you mean like feet?" Tommy recoiled, "No, not like that. I mean, what if they want to do some crazy role-playing or something?" Max shrugged, "Hey, as long as it's legal and consensual; it's fair game. Just remember to always establish boundaries and communicate with your clients. And if all else fails, just fake it 'til you make it." 

     Tommy laughed, feeling a little more at ease. "Thanks, Max. You always know how to put things in perspective." Max clapped him on the back. "That's what I'm here for, man. Now, let's get another round and toast to the crazy, wild world of gigolos."

     Tommy found his way home. He did look it up online. Hmmm, "The term gigolo usually implies a man who adopts a lifestyle consisting of a number of such relationships, serially, rather than having other means of support." 

     Tommy likes to remember that, bro-serious bar talk, as the night when he was inspired toward the business side of the gigolo world.

Chapter 3 T-step.

     Tommy began to meet a wide variety of business contacts.  Tommy's meetings with business contacts opened up a world of possibilities for him. He was introduced to wealthy clients who were interested in investing in his business and expanding his brand. Tommy was thrilled at the prospect of taking his business to the next level and making even more money.  Incidentally, they always wanted to really know him.

     Tommy's real name was, Tomislav Stepovich.  He grew up in a single parent household.  When Tommy was young, his dad returned to his hometown in Croatia.  Working an American factory wasn't the life for him.  Tommy and his mom were left alone in Milwaukee.

     Tommy reasoned that Dallas, Texas wasn't too far for him to migrate in his years.  He attended a public school in a suburban neighborhood.  Tommy's mom was a truck driver.  He lived with his so called Aunt, until he was old enough to embark on a trek of his own.

     Growing up in a single-parent household was tough, and his mom's job as a truck driver meant that she was often away from home. Tommy had to learn to be self-reliant at a young age, cooking and cleaning for himself and learning to take care of himself.

     Tommy seriously recalls that his upbringing and life experiences have shaped him into the person he is today, his relationships and interactions with women were always respectful, appropriate, and called for manners. Tommy's childhood and how he learned about the world of relationships and sexuality was all based on his perception.  He realized that he had an older, trusted female figure in his life who offered him guidance and advice on how to treat women with respect and care. 

     This pimp, Tommy respectfully notes, Auntie, taught him about consent and the importance of respecting boundaries in any kind of relationship.As Tommy got older and began exploring his own sexuality, he continued to learn about women through his own experiences and relationships. Some were well rounded abiding experiences.  He also became known as T-step, to others.  He talks about T-step in third person.  "T-step knew what it was.  He took it down a notch when situations were asking of such." Tommy used his hater-laugh. He adds, "In comparison to now, T-step could've been a mild case of multiple personality disorder. There was a missing diagnosis pertaining to a perpetually non existent, medicinal sedative.  Not schizophrenia.  No.  Let's say, emo-violent, spasmodic affairs.  That was T-step in a nutshell."

     Despite the challenges, Tommy had a happy childhood, though. He had a close-knit group of friends and enjoyed playing basketball and listening to music. As he got older, he knew that he wanted more out of life than what a small town could offer.After finishing high school, Tommy moved to Dallas to start a new life. He got his first job at McDonald's, and while it wasn't glamorous, it paid the bills. He worked hard and saved up enough money to move into his own apartment.  Tommy knew that he wanted more. He wanted to be successful, to make a name for himself, and to provide for his family. He began to explore different career paths, trying his hand at sales and customer service. Nothing seemed to fit quite right.  It wasn't until he discovered the gigolo business that Tommy found his true calling. 

     Tommy was a natural at seduction and had always been confident with women. The gigolo business was the perfect fit for him, allowing him to use his charm and charisma to make money and live a life of luxury.Tommy knew that the gigolo business could be dangerous. He had heard stories of other gigolos getting hurt or even killed by their clients. He made a promise to himself to always be careful and to never let his guard down.As he continued to build his business and meet with investors, Tommy felt a sense of pride in how far he had come. He knew that he had overcome a lot of obstacles in his life, and he was determined to keep pushing forward.But he also knew that he couldn't forget where he came from. He made a promise to himself to always remember his roots and to use his success to give back to his community and help others who were struggling, just like he had once been.

Chapter 2 Wait up.

     As he sat in his cell, Tommy's mind raced with thoughts of what his future would hold. He knew that he had made a mistake, but he wasn't ready to give up on the gigolo business just, yet. In fact, he realized that he had a new goal in mind - to become the boss of the business.He had always been a natural leader and had a keen eye for spotting opportunities. He knew that he could run the business better than anyone else and make it more successful than ever before.

     Tommy decided to use his time in jail to plan his next move. He read every business book he could get his hands on and made lists of all the things he would do differently if he were in charge.  When he was finally released, he hit the ground running. He started by reaching out to all of the other gigolos in the business and offering them better working conditions and higher pay. He also started marketing the business more aggressively, targeting wealthy clients who were willing to pay top dollar for his services.Within months, Tommy had become the most successful gigolo in the business, and his reputation for professionalism and discretion had spread far and wide. He had achieved his goal of becoming the boss, and he was now in a position to make a real difference in the lives of the gigolos who worked for him.  As he looked back on his experience with Evelyn, Tommy knew that he had made the right decision. He had learned that success wasn't just about making money, but about taking responsibility for his actions and using his talents to make a positive impact on the world.

     After his arrest, Tommy had a lot of time to reflect on what had happened. He realized that he had been so focused on making money and having fun that he had lost sight of the fact that his actions could have consequences. He felt guilty for not taking the time to get to know Evelyn better, and for not realizing that she may have had mental health issues.But as he read more and more about business and leadership, Tommy began to see a way out of his predicament. He realized that the gigolo business was a ripe opportunity for someone with his skills and ambition. He also saw the potential to change the industry for the better, by providing better working conditions and higher pay for the gigolos who worked for him.

     When Tommy was finally released from jail, he went straight to work. He used his charisma and charm to build relationships with the other gigolos in the business, convincing them to work for him instead. He also started reaching out to wealthy clients and building a new customer base.  But it wasn't just about making money for Tommy. He was determined to create a business that was based on integrity, professionalism, and respect. He implemented strict rules and guidelines for his employees, ensuring that they were always respectful and considerate of their clients' needs.  Tommy also started offering training programs and mentorship opportunities for the gigolos who worked for him, helping them to improve their skills and become more successful. He knew that he could make a real difference in the lives of these young men, and he was committed to doing so.  As his business grew, Tommy became known as a true leader in the industry. He was respected and admired by his employees and his clients alike, and he had created a business that was based on the principles of honesty, integrity, and professionalism. He had achieved his goal of becoming the boss, but he had also created a business that was making a real difference in the lives of others.

Chapter 1 The Decision

     Tommy had always been a bit of a rebel. At twenty-one, he had already dropped out of college and had no idea what he wanted to do with his life. He had been living off odd jobs and the generosity of his parents, but he was tired of feeling like a burden.One day, he stumbled upon an ad for a gigolo service. At first, he laughed it off, but the more he thought about it, the more it seemed like the perfect solution. He was young, good-looking, and had a certain charm about him that he knew could be put to good use.  So, he applied for the job and was surprised to find that he was accepted almost immediately. He was given a rundown of how the service worked, and it all seemed pretty straightforward. He would be matched with a client, and his job was to give her the night of her life.Tommy was excited about the prospect of making good money and having some fun at the same time. He knew that it wasn't a conventional career choice, but he was confident that he could handle it.

     The first few dates went smoothly. He was paired with attractive, successful women who were more than happy to pay for his services. Tommy felt like he was living the dream. He was making good money, having a great time, and feeling like he was finally in control of his life.But then, things took a turn for the worse. He was paired with a woman named Evelyn, who seemed a bit off from the start. 

     Evelyn was forgetful and seemed confused at times, but Tommy didn't think too much of it. He figured that she was just nervous, and he tried to put her at ease.They went to a fancy restaurant and had a few drinks, and everything seemed to be going well. But when they got back to her apartment, things took a dark turn.

     Tommy was in the middle of undressing her when she suddenly started screaming."Stop! Stop! You're raping me!" Tommy was taken aback. He had never experienced anything like this before. He tried to explain that he was there at her request, but she wouldn't listen. She was convinced that he was attacking her.Eventually, the police were called, and Tommy found himself in a world of trouble. He was arrested and charged with aggravated rape. He couldn't believe it. He had always been careful to make sure that his clients were consenting adults, but he had never thought to check if they were mentally sound.As he sat in his cell, he couldn't help but regret not taking the time to get to know Evelyn better. He realized that he had been so focused on making money and having fun that he had forgotten that his actions had consequences.

     He knew that he had to take responsibility for what had happened and do whatever it took to make things right.Tommy had always been a bit of a rebel, but now he was facing the consequences of his actions. He had a long road ahead of him, but he was determined to move on.

Chapter 6: Bang

     Ranger's heart raced as he walked through the door of his home, ready to confront Trish about what he had seen at the mall. He found her sitting on the couch, her face lighting up as she saw him.  "Ranger, you're home early," Trish said with a smile. "What's up, homie?", she added.  Ranger's guilt weighed heavily on him, and he couldn't bring himself to meet her gaze. He took a deep breath and finally spoke up.  "Trish, we need to talk," he said, his voice barely above a whisper.  Trish's smile faded as she noticed the seriousness in Ranger's tone. 

     Trish stood up, concern etched on her face.    "What's wrong, Ranger?" she asked, her eyes searching his face for answers.  Ranger took a moment to gather his thoughts before he spoke again.  "I saw you at the mall today, Trish," he said, his voice shaking. "You were flirting with another man."  Trish's eyes widened in shock, and she took a step back.  "I... I can explain," she stammered, looking visibly flustered.  But Ranger had already made up his mind. He couldn't bear the thought of Trish betraying him just as he had betrayed her. He shook his head, tears welling up in his eyes.  "It's over, Trish," he said, his voice filled with pain. "I can't do this anymore. We're done."  Trish's face crumpled, and she reached out a hand towards Ranger, but he stepped back, unable to bear her touch. He turned and walked out of the house, leaving Trish standing there, devastated.  

     Ranger's heart was heavy with guilt as he drove to Sandy's place, desperate for some solace. As he traced the walkway to her house, he was met with a sight that made his heart drop.  Sandy's brother, a Brazilian mobster, was waiting for him outside her house, his face contorted with rage. Before Ranger could react, the mobster drew his pistol and fired, hitting Ranger in the chest.  Ranger stumbled back, clutching his chest, blood pouring from the wound. He fell to the ground, his vision fading. As he lay there, gasping for breath, he realized the consequences of his actions were catching up to him.  Sandy rushed out of the house, screaming in horror as she saw Ranger lying on the ground, bleeding profusely. She knelt down beside him, cradling his head in her lap, tears streaming down her face.  "Ranger, no!" she cried, her voice filled with anguish. "Não morra, por favor, não...!"  Ranger knew his time was running out. He looked up at Sandy, his vision blurring, and reached out a weak hand towards her.  "I'm sorry, Sandy," he whispered, his voice barely audible. "I messed up... I betrayed everyone..."  Sandy's sobs grew louder as she held onto Ranger, but it was too late. Ranger's eyes closed, and he slipped into unconsciousness.

     When Ranger woke up, he found himself in a hospital bed, surrounded by beeping machines and concerned faces. Trish was there, her eyes red from crying, and she reached out a hand towards him.  "I'm so sorry, Ranger," she choked out, tears streaming down her face. "I didn't mean to hurt you..."  Ranger looked at her, his heart heavy with regret. He realized that his actions had consequences, and he had hurt not just Trish, but also Sandy and himself.  "I messed up, Trish," he whispered, his voice filled with remorse. "I cheated...betrayed you."

Chapter 5: Temptation

     He was in the neighborhood, so he felt that he should stop at the mall.  It was a weird feeling, but he parked his truck in a space by Target.  Man, his radio sounded awesome.  Ranger wasn't the type to read manuals, but his stereo upgrade was a test.  He turned off the the Bluetooth and the radio blarred.  Sports news. "That is the off button, right there." Click, he turned off the stereo system.  "Impulse shopping time," he muttered to himself.  The Jordans Tatum Celtics edition shoes are out.  Destination:  Finish Line.  New jeans from Dillard's, too.  He trekked into the crowded mall.  

     Wtf...

     Ranger felt a pit in his stomach as he watched Trish, his wife, flirt with a guy, in the food court, at the mall. 

     He had gone to the mall to get some new shoes, but what he found shattered his heart into pieces. Trish was laughing and touching some guy's arm, her sorority girl charm on full display.  He recognized the guy from somewhere.  Then, the guy hugged her and kissed her on the neck.

     Ranger felt a mix of anger, betrayal, and disappointment as he stood there, hidden from their view, spying on his own wife.  Unable to bear the sight any longer, Ranger turned around and left the mall, his mind racing. He couldn't believe what he had just witnessed. Was Trish cheating on him too?  The guilt of his own recent affair with Sandy weighed heavily on him, but he couldn't ignore the fact that Trish was also being unfaithful. He felt a sense of betrayal that cut deep, knowing that the woman he had vowed to love and cherish was seeking affection from another man.  Ranger got into his white 2024 Ford F350 Lariat, newly lifted, luxurious truck.  He mashed the gas.  The tires squealed with delight. He'd barely noticed some Brazilian-mark walk right in front of him.  The mark's girlfriend broke a heel getting out of the way.  There was a group of them pointing at the spectacle.  Ranger turned up the stereo, and stuck a middle finger out of his opening sun roof.  

   Ranger navigated aimlessly, trying to clear his head. He needed to talk to someone, and the first person who came to mind was Sandy.  He called her, his heart pounding in his chest as he tried to keep his emotions in check. He told her he needed to see her and asked her to meet him at the Best Western hotel.  After hanging up the phone, Ranger's mind was in turmoil. He couldn't believe the turn of events in his life. He had always been athletic and friendly, known for his easygoing nature and charm. Fast-forward, his social life is now entangled in a web of deceit and infidelity. He thought about his childhood dreams of adventure and how his choices had led him to this point. He felt a sense of regret and remorse for his actions, knowing that he had betrayed the trust of the woman he had once promised to love forever.  

     As he checked into the Best Western hotel, Ranger's heart was heavy with guilt. He knew he was about to make another mistake, but he couldn't resist the temptation to be with Sandy, even if it was just for a fleeting moment of distraction from his troubled marriage. He waited anxiously for Sandy to arrive, his mind filled with conflicting emotions.  Ranger made a liquor run to Spec's.  Vodka shots, tonight.  When Sandy finally arrived, she looked stunning.  She had a sundress on.  He noticed that it was covering her goodies that were laced with lingerie.  Sandy's voluptuous figure, accentuated by the seductive outfit, set his mind at ease.  She greeted Ranger with a knowing smile, sensing his inner rage. They went into the hotel room, and their passion ignited instantly. In that moment, Ranger forgot about his marriage, the guilt, and the consequences of his actions. He gave in to the desire and the escape that Sandy offered, desperately seeking solace in her arms.  The night with Sandy was filled with fiery passion, but as the dawn approached, Ranger's guilt resurfaced. 

     He knew that what he was doing was wrong, that he was betraying Trish just like she had betrayed him. He couldn't ignore the nagging voice in his head that told him he was making a mistake, and he realized that he needed to end things with Sandy once and for all.  Then, he saw her, in full display as she jiggled her way to the shower.  Sandy is like a rich dessert.  All of it isn't enough.  Ranger approached Sandy from behind.  He palmed her naked ass, with his middle finger tipping the rim of her asshole.  He smooched her cheek.  He said, "Later!" Sandy answered, "Até logo, papai." 

     He put his shirt, last.  Ranger flung the door open.  Then, he slammed the door.  As he left the hotel room, Ranger felt a heavy weight on his shoulders. He knew that he had to face the consequences of his actions and make things right with Trish. He couldn't continue down the path of deception and infidelity any longer. He drove back to his home in Uptown Houston, feeling a mix of apprehension and determination.  When he arrived home, Trish was there, waiting for him. Her hot pink 2023 Dodge Challenger Demon was parked in the driveway, but Ranger felt a sense of trepidation as he approached the front door. He didn't know how to confront her about what he had seen at the mall.  He knew that he had to be honest with her, though.

Chapter 4: Phone Call

     Ranger's phone buzzed, and he saw that it was a call from Sandy. He hesitated for a moment before answering, knowing that he should not be talking to her while he was at home with his wife,  Trish.  The temptation was too strong, and he found himself answering the call.  He meandered into the backyard.  "Hey, Sandy," Ranger said, his voice filled with excitement as he heard her sultry Brazilian accent on the other end of the line.  "Hey, babe," Sandy replied, her voice dripping with seduction. "I miss you already. I can't stop thinking about our time together."  Ranger's heart skipped a beat as he recalled the passionate moments he had shared with Sandy by the lake. He felt a surge of guilt, knowing that he was betraying Trish's trust.  "I miss you too, Sandy," Ranger admitted, his voice filled with conflict. "But we need to be careful. We can't keep talking like this. I'm married, and you know that."  

     Sandy chuckled softly, her voice teasing. "Oh, come on, Ranger. Don't be such a hoe. Live a little.  "Ranger clenched his jaw, torn between his feelings for Sandy and his commitment to his marriage. He knew he was playing with fire, and the guilt gnawed at him.  "I know that thang is spicy, but I can't, Sandy," Ranger said firmly, trying to steel himself against her advances. "I'm married to Trish, and I love her. We can't keep doing this."  Sandy's tone turned sulky, and she pouted over the phone. "Fine, be that way. You know where to find me if you change your mind.  Fique tranquilo, garotinho."  Ranger sighed, feeling both relieved and conflicted as he ended the call with Sandy. He knew he had to put an end to this illicit relationship, but the temptation was strong, and he was struggling to resist it.  

     Later that day, Ranger met Trish at Top Golf for lunch, as she had suggested. They sat in a cozy corner of the restaurant, and Trish's presence brought a smile to Ranger's face. He loved her deeply, and he felt a pang of guilt for betraying her trust.  As they enjoyed their meal, Ranger and Trish engaged in an intoxicating conversation, laughing and reminiscing about their shared memories. Trish's sorority charm was evident, and Ranger found himself drawn to her once again. But the guilt still gnawed at him, a constant reminder of his betrayal.  After lunch, Ranger excused himself, claiming that he had some errands to run. In reality, he was planning to get his truck lifted and install a new stereo as a distraction from his inner turmoil. He needed to clear his mind and find a way to resist the temptation of Sandy's alluring presence.  As he waited at the auto shop, Ranger's thoughts were filled with a mix of guilt, desire, and regret. He recalled his childhood dreams of adventure and the choices he had made that led him to this point. He had always been a friendly and outgoing person, known for his athleticism and charm, but now he found himself caught in a web of deceit and temptation.  The lift kit installation and the stereo upgrade took longer than expected, and Ranger found himself growing restless. He missed Trish, and he realized how much he had jeopardized their relationship for a fleeting affair with Sandy. He knew he needed to make a decision, and he needed to make it soon.  Headed back home in his newly upgraded truck, Ranger's mind was in turmoil. He knew he had to end things with Sandy once and for all, and he needed to find a way to rebuild the trust he had broken with Trish.

Chapter 3: At Home

     Ranger woke up early feeling a mix of excitement and guilt. He couldn't shake off the memories of his passionate encounter with Sandy the previous day. As he made his way to the kitchen, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee greeted him, and he saw Trish sitting at the table with a mischievous smile on her face.  "Morning, babe," Trish said, taking a sip of her coffee, her dark skin glowing in the morning light. "You look like you're in a good mood. Did you catch a big fish yesterday?"  Ranger grinned, his heart skipping a beat. "Well, a couple, but I threw one back," he replied, trying to keep his cool. "The fish weren't really biting, but I enjoyed the peacefulness of the lake."  Trish raised an eyebrow, her playful expression not going unnoticed by Ranger. 

     "Hmm, I bet you did," she said, her tone suggestive. "You know, I'm feeling a little frisky this morning. Maybe we can have some fun before you head out for work."  Ranger's mind raced as he tried to hide his guilt behind a smile. He couldn't shake off the image of Sandy from his mind, but he didn't want to hurt Trish either. "Sounds tempting, babe," he said, leaning in to kiss Trish's cheek. "But I've got an early meeting at the office today. Maybe tonight?"  Trish pouted, but she didn't press the issue. "Alright, tonight it is," she said, taking another sip of her coffee. "But don't keep me waiting too long, Mr. Ranger."  Ranger chuckled, feeling a mix of relief and guilt.

     He couldn't help but admire Trish's beauty and her playful nature, but his mind was still filled with thoughts of Sandy. He knew he had to be careful and not let his guard down around Trish, as he didn't want to reveal his betrayal.  As they sipped their coffee, Trish changed the topic to their plans for the upcoming weekend. She suggested going on a romantic getaway to a nearby resort, and Ranger found himself agreeing without really thinking it through. He didn't want to disappoint Trish, but at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt for deceiving her.  Throughout their conversation, Ranger tried to be clever and attentive, hiding his inner turmoil behind his charming façade. Trish was oblivious to his internal conflict, and she continued to flirt and tease him, making him feel both desired and guilty at the same time.  

     Ranger's mind wandered to his childhood in Texas, where he had dreamed of adventure and excitement. He had always been a free spirit, craving new experiences and thrills. As he grew older, he made choices that led him to a comfortable, but unfulfilling life. He had settled down with Trish, built a successful business, but deep down, he felt a restlessness that he couldn't ignore.  As the conversation continued, Trish's playful banter became more suggestive, and Ranger found it harder to keep up the charade. He was torn between his desire for Trish and his growing infatuation with Sandy. He tried to steer the conversation away from anything too intimate, but Trish was persistent.  "Come on, Ranger," Trish said, leaning in close to him with a twinkle in her eye. "Don't you want to have some fun before you head off to work?  I promise I'll make it worth your while."  Ranger felt a surge of desire. "Okay." He took a deep breath and tried.

Chapter 2: Deception by the Lake

     As Ranger packed his fishing gear into the back of his truck, he couldn't shake the feeling of guilt gnawing at him. He had always been a man of integrity, raised by his white father and black mother to be honest and true. Now, as he planned to deceive his wife Trish, he felt a pang of shame. He knew what he was doing was wrong, but he couldn't resist the temptation that had lured him away from his marriage.  Ranger had always loved fishing. It was a hobby he had picked up from his father, who had taken him to the shores of Lake Conroe in Texas since he was a child. This time, the fishing trip was just a cover for his infidelity. He had met Sandy online, and they had been exchanging flirtatious messages for weeks. 

     It had started innocently enough, just as a friendly conversation about their shared love for fishing. But soon, it had turned into something more, something forbidden and exciting.  As Ranger drove to the lake, he couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. He had carefully planned his deception, taking pictures of himself with fishing gear and fish he had bought from the nearby supermarket. He had made online purchases from stores near Lake Conroe to create a paper trail, in case Trish asked for receipts. He had even taken a day off from work, telling Trish that he needed some time alone to clear his mind and relax. She had been suspicious at first, but he had brushed off her questions with ease, assuring her that he just needed some time to himself.  He met Sandy at a secluded spot he had scouted out beforehand. She was a beautiful woman, with long flowing hair and a mischievous smile. She was also mixed race, like Ranger, but her main heritage was Brazilian. She had a sultry accent that sent shivers down Ranger's spine. As they greeted each other with a warm hug, Ranger felt a rush of excitement coursing through his veins. 

     He knew what he was doing was wrong, but he couldn't resist the forbidden thrill of being with someone new.  Sandy had brought a picnic basket filled with delicious food and wine. They sat by the lake, sipping wine and sharing stories about their lives. Ranger found himself captivated by Sandy's charm and wit. She was unlike anyone he had ever met before, and he found himself drawn to her in a way that he couldn't explain. As they laughed and talked, Ranger felt a sense of freedom that he hadn't felt in a long time. He was away from his responsibilities, away from his marriage, and for the first time in a while, he felt truly alive.  As the day turned into evening, Ranger and Sandy went for a walk by the lake. The sun was setting, casting a golden glow over the water. They held hands and walked in silence, lost in each other's company. Ranger felt a sense of guilt creeping up on him, but he pushed it aside, focusing on the moment and the connection he had with Sandy. They found a secluded spot by the lake, hidden from view, and sat down on a blanket.  

     As the stars came out, Ranger and Sandy kissed passionately. The chemistry between them was undeniable, and Ranger was swept away by the intensity of his emotions. He knew what he was doing was wrong, but in that moment, he didn't care. He was caught up in the passion and desire that he had been denying himself for so long. He wanted to forget about his marriage, forget about the guilt, and just be in the moment with Sandy.  As their kisses grew more fervent, Ranger's mind was filled with thoughts.

Chapter 1: The Fishing Trip

     Ranger looked out at the vast expanse of water, his fishing rod in hand. The sun was setting over Lake Conroe, casting a warm golden glow across the horizon. He took a deep breath, the familiar scent of the lake filling his nostrils, as memories of his childhood in Texas came flooding back.  Ranger was a mixed-race man, born to a White father and a Black mother. He had grown up in a public school in Texas, where he had learned to appreciate the great outdoors and developed a love for fishing. But today, he wasn't here to fish.  In fact, the fishing trip was just a ruse. Ranger had told his wife, Trish, that he was going on a fishing trip with some old friends from college. But in reality, he had other plans. 

     He had been feeling restless and dissatisfied with his life lately, and he had made a decision that he knew would change everything.  As he sat there, pretending to fish, Ranger felt a mix of excitement and guilt. He knew he was about to do something that would betray his marriage, but he couldn't help himself. He had been feeling disconnected from Trish for a while now, and the thought of exploring something new and different was too alluring to resist.  Ranger had met Trish, a Black woman raised in a private school in London, England, during his time at university. They had fallen in love and eventually tied the knot, but lately, things hadn't been going well between them. Their once passionate relationship had turned into a routine, and Ranger couldn't shake off the feeling of emptiness that had settled in his heart.  He had been having thoughts of his future, and as time passed, he couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency. Ranger had always been a restless soul, craving adventure and excitement. The responsibilities of marriage and a career had slowly taken their toll on him, and he found himself yearning for something more.  Ranger had been feeling guilty about his decision to cheat on Trish, but he couldn't deny the thrill that surged through him as he thought about the woman he was about to meet. Her name was Sandy, a Brazilian woman.   She was a vibrant and passionate woman who had entered his life unexpectedly.  As he sat there, pretending to fish, Ranger reflected on his childhood in Texas. He had grown up in a small town, surrounded by vast fields and open skies. He had spent his days exploring the wilderness, fishing in the nearby lakes, and dreaming of a future full of adventure.  Now, as he stared out at the lake in front of him, Ranger couldn't help but feel a pang of regret. He had come a long way from that young boy with big dreams and wild ambitions. He had built a successful career, married a beautiful woman, and created a stable life for himself. But somewhere along the way, he had lost a part of himself, and he couldn't help but wonder if he had made the right choices.  

     Ranger had always been a loner at heart, and he had grown accustomed to keeping his true feelings hidden from others. He had a tough exterior that he had developed over the years, but deep down, he longed for a connection that went beyond the superficial.As the sun dipped lower in the sky, Ranger decided it was time to head back to his cabin. He had made arrangements to meet Sandy later that evening, and he couldn't keep her waiting. He packed up his fishing gear, took one last look at the lake, and started walking back to his cabin.  When he arrived, he quickly changed into a clean set of clothes and headed out to meet Sandy. He had made a few purchases online from the nearby stores.
