"OK. That was pretty good. I need more tenor. Sopranos hold back. Let's start again with measure 173."
Beth, our choir director, brought us through one of our spring concert pieces. This piece was a modern piece written by a Ugandan priest. It had some unusual harmonies, but I was unprepared for lyrics written in Bantu. It was a far stretch from Latin.
We finished the piece, and Beth spoke to the group. "OK, I will see you all here Saturday night for our last rehearsal. Our first concert date is Sunday. Don't forget, men, you will be wearing your red cummerbunds and bowties."
I put my music back in its folder and then into my black book bag. It was 10 pm. It had been another long day. I needed to get up early the next morning for my flight to Chicago. As I approached my BMW, I noticed Tammy standing next to her red Mercedes parked next to mine. Tammy was a soprano and had been in the choir for over twenty years.
"Good night Tammy. See you Saturday." I said, pushing the unlocking button on my key.
I heard not a reply, but a muffled sob.
I stopped reaching for my door. Tammy had her back to me.
"Tammy, are you OK?" I asked.
Again, I heard no reply. She shook her head, yes, but I was not convinced, and I walked over to her.
"Tammy?" I continued.
She turned to me. She did not meet my eyes. She was crying. Tears were still rolling down her face. She wiped them away with the back of her hand.
Tammy was about 50. Very slim. Not much of a chest, I would guess bra size A. She had very nice legs and was very cute with short blond hair. She looked a lot like Meg Ryan at her peak, before her overdose on cosmetic surgery.
"Tammy, what's wrong?" I pressed.
Her head was still bent down, but her eyes lifted to meet mine.
"Steve..." she said quietly, closed her eyes and then burst again into a flood of tears.
I didn't know what to do. I took her and hugged her, as she wept on my shoulder. I could feel her shudder as she continued to cry. She was wearing a lovely delicate perfume. The type that you would not smell unless you were this close.
She surprised me by holding me to her with her arms around my back.
"Tammy, what's the matter?"
"Steve, I can't..." she sobbed uncontrollably. Her sobbing continued for several minutes.
As her sobs began to subside, she took a deep breath. "He left me," she said between small gasps of air.
I resisted the temptation to say, "Who left you?" The answer was obvious, I knew she was married.
I waited for what seemed like 5 minutes. "Let's get you some coffee, OK?"
I loosened my arms, and she pulled gently away. She once again wiped her tears away with her sleeve. She looked up at me with tear-filled eyes and nodded OK.
There was a small café across the street from the church. I put my hand on her shoulder and guided her across the street to the café entrance. There were outside tables, and it was a pleasant evening, so I moved to a table at the very end of the patio area. There were only two other tables occupied and they were at the other end of the patio. I pulled out the chair for her, and she sat down. I sat down next to her and we waited in silence for the server.
"Two cups of coffee, please," I said to the twenty-something college student with the nose piercing. I thought to myself, isn't nose piercing out of fashion? Tammy avoided my gaze and had taken a napkin and was dabbing her eyes.
After our waiter had returned with our coffees and left, I reached over and took her hand. "Tammy, are you OK?"
She took a sip of coffee and began. "I got home on an earlier flight from my business trip yesterday. On the way back from the airport, I stopped at Michelle's house. Michelle's been my best friend since college. Carl and I have taken trips together with her and her husband. I am godmother to her second oldest child."
She took another sip of coffee and continued. "I had left my iPad at Michelle's house by accident before I left. I normally would have called Carl to let him know I was coming home early but I thought I would surprise him, and besides my cell phone battery was dead." She laughed and smiled briefly, "I am amazed that we ever survived without cell phones." She was beautiful when she smiled like that.
I could see where this was going, and she continued, "Anyway, as I got to Michelle's house I noticed Carl's car in her driveway. I thought to myself that was interesting, but not strange given that we are good friends. Sometimes he helps her out with fixing stuff around the house. Well, I got to the door and was about to ring the doorbell and heard voices. One was Carl's. He was saying "Go on. Take it. Yes, take it! Oh, baby yes, yes give it to me," or something like that.
Tammy looked me directly in the eyes, "I didn't know what to think...what to do. I was shocked at what I might be hearing. The front door was unlocked. I went inside and walked into the front den. Carl was standing naked, and Michelle bent over the couch. Carl was fucking her from behind. I was shocked. I stood there watching in disbelief for what felt like minutes. Michelle finally noticed me standing there and gasped my name. Carl turned to face me with his cock still in Michelle's pussy."
Now, this description shocked me. I had always thought that Tammy was a bit of a prude. She was a Catholic girl school student, a Eucharistic minister, and Sunday school teacher. I didn't know she knew how to use the words "fuck," "cock," and "pussy," much less expected her to have the ability to say them to me.
"Carl finally pulled out of Michelle. I had half expected him now to say, 'this is not what it looks like...' Well, he went on to tell me he was in love with Michelle and it was good I knew it. He was going to leave me. I was shocked. I didn't know what to say."
Tammy then broke down into tears again. I rubbed the top of her hand saying, "He was a jerk. You are better off without him.
She stopped crying and blurted out, "You know what really pissed me off?" There was anger on her face. "He never fucked me like that."
Tammy surprised me once again. Yes, she was not the Sunday school teacher that I once thought I knew. We chatted for a while more. Tammy told me that they really didn't have a happy marriage. She believed that Carl had many affairs, but what bothered her most was the rejection. She told me of her frustrations over the last several years. It was difficult for her as her physical needs and sexuality were peaking.
"Steve, thank you so much for letting me dump all that on you. I really didn't have anyone I could confide in."
"No worries. I went through a difficult divorce myself. Trust me I understand."
As I opened the door to her Mercedes, she asked "I have been invited to a dinner party Saturday night after rehearsal. Would you like to join me?"
Again, I was taken by surprise. "Sure, that would be nice," I said with a smile.
"We could go back to my house after rehearsal, and then we could take one car from there if that would be OK with you, it is a little way out in the country." She added with a hint of a smile. "Thanks so much." She started to sit down in her car and then stood up again and gave me a quick kiss on my cheek.
I could still smell Tammy's subtle perfume as she drove away. I was looking forward to rehearsal next Saturday.
-----
I got to rehearsal a bit late. I saw Tammy in the second row in the soprano section, wearing a conservative dress with a high collar. She smiled at me as I walked to my place in the choir.
After rehearsal ended, I walked out with Tammy to the parking lot.
"Steve, I need to go home and change. Meet me at my house in 30 minutes, here is the address." She gave me a slip of paper with her address and drove away in her car, with a little wave to me and a tiny smile playing across her lips.
I stopped back at my condo that was nearby and put on my sports jacket and tie and headed over to Tammy's house.
I had not been to Tammy's neighborhood before. It was in an exclusive area, and most of the homes were well into the million-dollar range. I pulled up to Tammy's house, a beautiful place. I walked up to the door and rang the doorbell.
When the door opened, I almost gasped. There stood Tammy in the most beautiful little black dress. The hem of her dress went half way up her thigh, and she was wearing some fantastic black strappy 'come fuck me' shoes.
"You look amazing," I said with a broad smile.
Tammy visibly blushed. "Steve, you are so sweet. Thank you." She leaned over and gave me another kiss on the cheek. "Ready to go?" she asked with a smile.
I smiled and nodded and escorted her to the passenger side of my BMW. As I drove away, I couldn't help but stare at her exposed thigh below the hem of her LBD. This was turning into an evening of surprises.
------
It took us only about 25 minutes to get to the location of the dinner party. If Tammy's street was upscale, this area was even more exclusive. The mansion was not old, but it had been built to copy the opulent style of the 1920s. My BWM paled next to the two Bentleys and the Rolls that were parked outside.
