Chapter 126

After a change of clothes, we went over to the gym. A light supper in the gym had become the normal routine. I noticed that there was still some construction vehicles but not as many as there were before. I would be glad when everything was completed, the parking had been a real pain with the construction and all the piled up snow taking up spots. I did notice that Bob's pickup was still in the lot. I had another project over at the house that I wanted him to work on if he still needed work.

Marsha was at the customer window scheduling appointments for the Marathoners from the sound of the conversation. Wendy came into the lobby to get the customer for tanning and I noticed her nipples were like mountains in the thong she was wearing. She caught me staring.

With a laugh she said, "You're as bad as the men and they love to look, they have had the door open so much it is cool in here. You need to go up stairs and look. It is nice."

Marsha added, "Marcy wants to see you as soon as you can, she is moving into her office."

I was overwhelmed as I opened the door and walked into the new office area. Everything was in place, double monitors on all the cubicles, flip up overhead storage compartment above each, and the computer tower underneath. The file cabinets were under the counter. The girls were in their private offices setting them up. Name plates were mounted beside the doors.

Bob and his crews were doing finishing touches here and there. The computer techs were running tests and loading programs on each of the desktops. The counter was full of laptops getting the same treatment.

I pulled Bob aside and asked if he had found any work for the rest of the month.

"We have another day finishing up the odds and ends here. That will make this such a first class job that I will be proud to have my name attached to it. After that, not much, still nothing firm from planning on the other project yet," Bob said.

"Let me finish with Marcy then I want to show you a project I want done over to the house," I said.

Marcy called all of us into her office and closed the door. "Mom has one more business opportunity for us. She says this is the last one for this year. She has had a property investment in North Dakota for years and it has turned into a gold mine. Is it a huge natural gas and oil dome and they have started extracting from it. She has to reinvest all this money or pay a lot of taxes. She has one more line, actually two lines of business for us to add," Marcy said.

"Mom has the two planes at the Island Airport and pilots that are getting paid a full salary whether they fly or not. Both the pilots and the planes are certified to do commercial charter flights. She has found a deal on another King Air turbo prop and another G5LR from a solar company that is going bankrupt. The LR can fly intercontinental. She wants to start a charter flight company for high-end patrons and we manage the complete operation here. That's the first part of it." Marcy said.

"For the second part she has had one of her secretaries working on it for a couple of months. Mom wants to buy twenty houses in Naples, Florida and use them as rentals. A package type of rental deal is what she has in mind. They would get air flight down, a rental car, a rental house, and flight back as a package. All this is connected to the charter flight business. The area she wants us to target is the Baltimore, Washington corridor, possibly advertising in Richmond and Norfolk as well. The houses have been inspected by two different inspection agencies. Mom wants to know if you and Jenny could get your Mom's and Dad's to fly down Friday morning and stay as long as necessary to physically put a set of our own eyes on each house and compare the inspection reports to the house, all expenses paid," Marcy said.

"Wow, it will take a while to build up clientele to make that successful, I think. If it had been ready now the planes would have been full with this bone-chilling weather we have been having. Ching Lee will have to take over both advertising and public relations and Vicky the charter business. That will use the other office," I said.

Marcy said, "That's not all. We had 4 male gym trainers come in today wanting applications to work here when we start a night gym for the male population in the area. All four currently work in area gyms and say they can bring clients with them for nights. I had a good interview with all of them. They suggested 8 pm to 12 and again 4am to 8. They are all going to come back tonight at 10 and tour the gym. Kim and Marsha started a log of men wanting to book the Marathoners as soon as we open for men. All 4 are going to be booked for a while. Word of mouth advertising in the runner circles is going full throttle."

"You, Ching, Vicky and Lorrie need to put together a good presentation of all the businesses in the group. To add to the job interviews, I learned today that not only is your professor coming but Bob and Shirley from HR and Ching, Vicky and Lorrie's professors. I know you didn't need that added pressure but I didn't think that you needed that kind of surprise. With all the other things and this group coming, please don't say anything about the security part we are working on," I said. "They are looking at modeling more of the final semester towards work in place for credits."

"Jenny and I are going to take Bob over to the house to look at a project I am thinking about and Jenny and I have something to do for an hour or so after that. When we finish I will be back over, Jenny will not," I said. "Hopefully you can handle things OK until I get back. I know you have put in a long day."

"Abby, Kirstin and Courtney have all agreed to part time. They are all here tonight so we are good. Abby and Kirstin both have their county schedules a month in advance so working out our scheduling will be easy," Marcy said.

Bob, Jenny and I left. The three of us went down to the big basement that was mostly empty after we had moved all of the equipment over to the gym. "I want 6 nice bedrooms built down here. Stay 3 feet from the wall on all three sides. As you can see there is a French drain and four sump pumps, one in each corner. I don't want anything to mess them up. Have all the doors open to a center hallway like a hotel. Work them around the support columns however you need to do that. Don't come any closer to the front than here. I still want the mats to be able to be there. I am thinking they should be 12 feet wide and like 16 feet deep, be sure to put a nice closet in each one. Use the same heat pump setup as you have done for me before, plenty of outlets and run computer outlets and TV in the walls. Just bundle the computer and TV cable off to the side for now.

I also want an automatic standby generator big enough to run everything with some extra. Make it propane. If we have to get a bigger tank, so be it. And get a price on a generator for the Gym, propane as well. Mount both of them high enough that flooding won't be a problem," I said.

"See one of the girls at the gym when you need to get down here to take measurements. When you start you can come through the garage entrance over there. We will give you a key when you start," I said as we said good night.

Jenny and I walked hand in hand to the bedroom and locked the door behind us. We said few words, they were not needed. We showered, washed each other's hair as we always did and shaved each others kitty smooth. It was a hug and a kiss here, there and every where, along with 'I love you'. Yes, we were in love. I loved all my mates, Lorrie, Vicky, Marcy and Ching Lee. I would kill and maim a thousand to protect them and heaven help anyone that harmed them. I would hunt them down to the ends of the earth and they would die slowly and very painfully.

With Jenny there was just something that was a little more. The feeling of love was the same with all of them but Jenny touched my soul in a special way. Two women in love and now we were going further. In many places in the world what were trying to do would bring death in the most hideous ways. Even here it was still heavily frowned upon by many.

We made love for most of an hour. We kissed, licked, sucked and fingered until we were exhausted. I came twice and she three times. Jenny screamed so loud with the third one it was a wonder they didn't hear it in the gym. We held each other and cried with the pleasure.
