After weeks and weeks of torturous desire and lust building up in them, Xavier the college freshman and Bai-Ma the landlady's handmaiden had finally put a physical dimension to their licentious cravings. That morning, for the first time in his life he had buried his face against a woman's breasts and then the impossible fantasy of his wildest dreams had come to fruition; she had given him a handjob and he had blasted his semen in the most explosive ejaculation ever. The mature woman, almost twice the lad's age, pleasured herself later in the afternoon alone in her bed.
That evening, both Bai-Ma and Xavier left the grounds of the mansion at almost the same time. She was accompanying the lady of the house to the theatre; a play based on Khalid Hosseini's "The Kite Runner" was being staged at one of the plush auditoriums downtown, starting at 5:30 in the evening. And Xavier had his usual Saturday night gig at the night club, or discotheque, in the basement of a hotel not too far away. His buddy, Axel, the drummer in their band, picked him up outside the back gate of his outhouse at around 4:15; the other members were all coming in by 5:00 so as to get some practice before the club opened at 7:30.
Axel, on his Honda 500 cc, roared past the black Mercedes S-class with Xavier riding pillion. Xavier knew that was the lady's car and most likely Bai-Ma was accompanying her somewhere, but because of the tainted windows on the black sedan, he couldn't see inside. Bai-Ma saw the red and black Honda motorcycle at the junction where the street behind the estate joined the main arterial road. Both riders had black helmets on with the visors covering their faces, but the rider at the back had a guitar case strapped across his back. She smiled inwardly as the heavy machine overtook the car.
The band called themselves 'Abraxas' but used the Greek script ΑΒΡΑΞΑΣ on their posters and other PR material. Although Xavier had only joined the group fairly recently as a new member, the group had been playing for almost three years and were extremely popular in the city. Xavier's addition as lead guitarist had only improved their ratings, and they were hoping to cut a disc sometime in the near future. By 5 o'clock, all of them had arrived at the club and, after grabbing a small bite to eat, they began jamming for a while before getting their sets in order for the evening.
The group had contracted for three 45-minute sessions every Saturday night, the first at 8:00 pm and the last one ending at 11:45 pm. Local regulations dictated that the club shut at midnight. That night was as crowded at the club as every other Saturday with couples streaming in from the moment the doors opened. The group played a mix of classic and contemporary rock, an occasional slow number, a bit of blues, and even some country music. The club was always very generous with the food and drinks for the band; it was the only time Xavier consumed any alcohol and it always put him in a happy mood.
Bai-Ma and her mistress got home by about 9:00 pm and both dined together al fresco on the small balcony abutting the library, served by one of the cooks. Xavier on the other hand didn't get back till 2 o'clock in the morning. After the club had shut its doors and the last of their customers had left, the band members sat around with the club owners and talked about their plans. They drank good whiskey, jammed for a while with Xavier playing his favourite acoustic guitar and trying out some songs he had written; generally hung loose together. When they all departed, Axel once again gave Xavier a lift back to his house; switching the engine off 30 metres before the back gate and coasted to a stop. He also promised he wouldn't kick start his bike till he was out of ear shot from the mansion and estate.
Once Xavier got inside his rooms, he stripped and walked into the shower, letting the cold jets of water wash over the buzz in his head. He then put on a pair of pyjamas and went up to the terrace with his guitar, taking the spiral staircase on the outside wall at the side of his digs. It was a surprisingly cool night and he regretted not wearing a top before coming up to the roof; but it was a pleasant cool, not nippy or chilly. There was an old weathered plastic chair on the terrace that he had washed and cleaned when he discovered it; he used it whenever he came up, which he did often, especially on weekends. He sat down and strummed his Washburn, humming along to tunes he had been working on over the last few days and realised he was thinking of Bai-Ma.
In fact, he had been thinking of her all day, ever since she had left in the morning. At the club he had seen some very sexy women, dressed in very sexy clothes, with very sexy bodies but he couldn't get Bai-Ma out of his head. Most of the girls at the nightclub were young, like less than 25, and he'd even noticed two couples from his college. But there were also others in the 35+ year old category, some dressed in sarees, but absolutely gorgeous looking with the most heavenly bodies he could imagine. They wore their traditional Indian dress low on their hips and had blouses barely big enough to hide their brassieres, if at all they were wearing any. And all the time, he only thought of Bai-Ma.
Xavier found himself strumming to an old Bobby Goldsboro song called 'Summer the First Time.' He thought about the morning with Bai-Ma and his own inexperience with women, and how she didn't seem to think any less of him on account of his sexual naivety.
And when she looked at me
I heard her softly say
I know you're young
You don't know what to do or say
But stay with me until the sun has gone away
And I will chase the boy in you away
