Chapter 3: Date Night

After several cell phone calls between the two women, it turned out Sam and Barry were invited to Roberta’s house for a Saturday night meal with Roberta and Doug, her husband. Yes, Roberta was married…but Sam told herself this was actually a good thing; after all, Sam was part of a couple, too. She wasn’t looking for a girlfriend, although she had no idea what she was looking for. All she knew was she wanted to touch Roberta in the most desperate way, and she was willing to go to a great deal of planning and effort to make that happen.

First, she had to make arrangements for Emily and Dax for Saturday night. Sam’s mom wasn’t available, and neither was the neighbor who sometimes served as babysitter. Of course, Emily would protest she and her brother were fine by themselves, but Sam didn’t feel comfortable with it—Roberta’s place was almost thirty miles away, and they would probably be out late. Sam was starting to panic a little, thinking the entire plan would fall through, when a friend of Emily’s called and invited her to a sleepover. Feeling a little uncomfortable and guilty, Sam asked if Dax could come, too—he was vaguely friends with Emily’s friend’s brother. To Sam’s relief, the woman on the other end of the phone assured Dax’s mom he would be quite welcome. So…the kids were all set, and Sam could concentrate on looking as fabulously alluring as possible for her upcoming adventure.
