Kissing Frogs




In the coming weeks...Things were kind of slow...I spent my days rehearsing my quartet at Josie's in the morning before it opened...Then at night...I recorded with Meek Rollins and Brooke Taylor at the recording studio...
 Most of the nights I'd come home to an empty bed...I wasn't concerned...Olivia was a floor below me in Beverly's domicile...She and Beverly were enjoying their cousin Kayla's presence...I could often hear the three women laughing loudly through Beverly's window as I approached our duplex.They would talk until well after 2:00 in the morning...Then Olivia would come upstairs...By then..I was sound asleep..

Kayla had been with us for two weeks...She was no problem...In fact..Beverly said she was the perfect room-mate..Made all of the beds...washed and dried all of the dishes...Even brought groceries...and on the nights when Beverly didn't spend the night over at Nelson's apartment..Kayla was great company...
I'd come home from my recording gig and hear the two women talking or laughing...

Beverly and Josie took her to all of the clubs...Josie's, Aqua Bar, Stoleys and even Minks..



While Olivia and Bev were in court... Josie told us that Kayla helped her file and kept our office spotless...She was doing her best not to be in the way or any trouble...The detective in me said..She was trying too hard!  I hadn't mentioned the phone call I had accidentally overheard in Josies to Beverly or Olivia..But in the back of my mind...I was certain of two things...One, Cousin Kayla wasn't leaving anytime soon and two, Cousin Kayla was running from something or someone!


Without mentioning a thing to my wife Olivia or my niece, Beverly..I did a little snooping...Kayla had been with her law firm for five years, got great reviews and after a few well placed calls, I discovered that she had taken an indefinite leave of absence for "personal reasons.." She wasn't on vacation.

I assured the person I was talking to that she was alright...The person I was talking to...A Black woman seemed concerned...

"She was an up and comer...a rising star in our company and she just up and asked for an indefinite leave of absence..We are all concerned...We thought she was happy here." said the woman..

"I'm sure she is...She loves her work..I suppose she just needed a break." I said and hung up.

With that done...I left it alone...I did no more snooping and finished my recording sessions...

On the last night of recording...I came home and surprisingly found Olivia sitting in bed...

I leaned over and kissed her softly....

"Something wrong?" I asked..

"Yes..." she said.

"What is it baby?" I asked.

"Kayla!" she said.

"Kayla?" I said.

"Yes...I know you've noticed she's been here for two weeks going on three now.."said Olivia..

"Well uh yeah..but you girls were having such a good time and all..."I said.

"We were and she's been a joy....but yesterday Kayla asked Beverly if she knew any Gynecologists...And Bev gave her hers....She checked her insurance...Bev asked her if anything was wrong and she assured her that it wasn't...but that seemed to be an odd thing to ask on vacation .."said Olivia..

"Yes it was...just out of the blue." I said.

"So this morning I went to pick up Bev to go to court... and Bev found this in the bathroom..Kayla was gone..She never leaves this early in the morning." She said showing me two home pregnancy test kits..and both showing that the person was pregnant!!" said Olivia.

I looked at them and then smiled at Olivia...

"Liv? You AND Beverly are pregnant?" I joked.. These two made sure they had an ample supply of both birth control pills and condoms...I knew they weren't.

"NOOOO silly..."said Olivia smiling and swatting my arm..."Neither of us...These both belong to Kayla.." said Olivia...

"That's why she was asking about a OBGyn" I said.

"And you used to be a detective." joked Olivia.

"Did Kayla come back?" I asked.

"Yes..We put them back where she left them...Neither of us said anything to her...That's her business..I figure she'll tell us if she wants us to know.I didn't want to embarrass her."said Olivia..


"Good idea..Now as a detective I have just figured out something..."I said.

"Ohhh really?" said Olivia seductively.. She softly ran her index finger across my lips..

"I'll bet I know what it is.."she said..

I slowly took Olivia's sweater off...She was wearing a beige slip....I began kissing her...

"Oh that I've been working all night and I could use some good sweet loving right about now.."I said.

Olivia smiled...We began kissing softly and I kicked my shoes off, took my shirt off...Unzippered my trousers and took my socks off and crawled up on the bed with her...

Soon I was lying on top of her kissing her passionately and she was rubbing my back and moaning..

"Ouuuuuuu...mama could use some loving too..It's been a few days..." she said in between kisses..

"Mmmmm yesssss..." I said...

I took my left hand and slowly eased her panties down and off of her...

She looked at me and smiled...

"You are getting too good at this.." she said and smiled and gave me a nice slow and soft kiss..

I stared down into those gorgeous brown eyes of hers and I entered her slowly and gently..I wanted to savor this experience, I entered her softly and gently and began to stroke her softly and slowly....Olivia  moaned and put her arms around my neck and drew me closer to her..She wrapped her legs around my waste and we began to move in a slow, yet deliberate rhythm for quite some time...

"MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM, you are real good at this .."she said in between slow deep kisses.

She matched me thrust for thrust and began blowing softly into my ear....then she began kissing me again, soft,short kisses...

Her body was so soft...so moist and smelled so good...I was losing my mind slowly like I always did when I made love to her......while continuing to stroke her masterfully....

"Mama loves the way you love her Donnie Ray.."she cooed..

"And I love loving her.." I said as I continued to move in and out....

II-

Kayla was a floor below us in her room talking on her smartphone-

"Baby...Where are you? I need to see you...I'm going crazy...I'm jonesin down here without you.."said Brian Nixon.

"Brian...Stop it okay...You got me pregnant!!!...I told you to use a condom...I begged you...I told you not to cum inside of me...You stopped listening.."she said.

"Pregnant?? You're Pregnant???Is it..Is it mines?"he said.

"Of course it's yours..I haven't been with anybody else..."she said.

There was silence....

"Uh ,er uhhh...Are you going to keep it? Why didn't you use birth control pills??? I-I-I can't be involved in any scandal baby...I'm about to run for State Senate...Look,let's talk about this...How far along are you? I 'm married..." he said.

"Hmmm funny, you didn't seem to be married when you were sweating on me and humping me ." she said.

"I'm sorry Kayla...That came out all wrong...I didn't mean to say that...So uh...What do you plan to do?" he asked.

"For once...What's best for me." said Kayla..

"And what-what, what is that?" asked Brian.

"Goodbye Brian?" she said and hung up....

She laid down on her bed and began to cry...

Beverly appeared in the doorway...

"Kayla girl...I'm sorry...I was walking out to the refrigerator and I heard...I wasn't being newsy..." said Beverly..

"It's okay Bev...you might have found out eventually anyway...I'm so ashamed Beverly and I was such a fool...I'm so ashamed..I know better than this." said Kayla..

"How far along are you?" asked Beverly...

"I'm not anymore...I took care of it!!...I'm not ready for a baby yet...And I definitely don't want to be a single mother.." she said.

"Who's the father? If I may ask?" said Beverly...

"One of the partners....He's married...Newly married as in not quite a year yet and he was busy humping and sweating and grinding on me.." she said.

"Sexual Harrassment?" asked Bev..
"No, Not really...I was receptive of it.....I kinda liked it...at first...Girl  ,He's fine...I wanted to kind of sort of...I knew it was wrong, but I did it anyway...I'm so ashamed..Please don't tell Cousin Liv." said Beverly...

"Kayla, we both found the Home Pregnancy tests in the bathroom this morning..You left em out....We weren't gonna sweat you about it." said Bev...

Kayla burst into tears...Beverly held her ,hugged her and ran her hands through her hair...

"It's okay...We've all been there...We've all messed up with the wrong guy..."she said.
"This was beyond just messin up Beverly....I should have known better Bev...I should have...He doesn't love me...He never did..He just wanted to get in my panties..and I kinda knew it.I knew it and I let him...Not just once but several times..Knowing he was still going home  and sleeping with his wife..." she said.

"Kayla..what are you going to do? " asked Beverly..

"Girl, I don't know..."she sighed..

III-
A week later,Olivia sat in the county lock up...She was with our new client, Georgia Bee Richardson..A very famous Interior Decorator and wife of  Perry Richardson, A Realtor ,who was accused of the first degree murder of her son's Math Tutor... 23 year old , Angelique Houston.

Beverly and I were with her too..

"Mrs. Alexander..Thank you so much for coming...I know what the video shows in our house...but I can't remember anything about that night...I don't remember doing this." she said.

A video showed her dragging the woman's bloody body across the floor, attempting to wash the blood off of it and then place it out on the lawn....Where she was found sleeping soundly next to the body...A trail of blood following her...

It certainly didn't look good for her..

 "Mrs. Richardson...Why were there micro -cameras in your house in the first place and why were they on on the night of the murder?" asked Olivia...

Mrs. Richardson blushed a bit...

"Oh...This is soo embarrassing...My-My husband...Perry ,He...He has a very..well how would I say it..Unique sexual appetitte..He likes to film us...You know..when we are being intimate...So on any given night, he might have the video on when we were uh being intimate in the kitchen, in the bedroom, or wherever..He liked me to dress up."she said..

'Dress Up?" asked Olivia..

"Yes..In weird Rubber and leather outfits...put a rubber ball in my mouth...Let him whip me...Make me act like a slave or dress up like a little girl and let him spank me.."she said.

"Okay..Okay..I get it." said Olivia...Who was a combonation of shocked and disgusted.

I held my head down...a smile creased my face....Mrs. Richardson wore her hair in a bun and dressed pretty conservatively...but she had a very nice figure..a figure that could turn a lot of men's heads...and I imagine when she let her hair down, she was quite attractive....But the idea of this woman doing all of those things simply amazed me..

My wife Olivia ,who is so prim and proper in public amazed me at being shocked and disgusted by this as wild and free as she is behind closed doors...

The woman is a paradox...but that's what I love about her!~


"Don't you have a grown son that lives with you?" asked Olivia..
changing the subject..

This made Beverly smile...She looked at me and I gazed away...She always found it funny when something made her Aunt Olivia blush.


"Oh Yes... Terrence...Terry was staying over a friend's house that night.." said Mrs. Richardson...


"So if you and your husband were going to have sex...Why did you take a powerful sleeping pill?" asked Beverly...

Again she looked very embarrassed...

"The uh drug I took was more than a sleeping pill...It uh relaxed me...My husband as I said has a lot of fetishes...Things I'm just not into...I'm no prude..but sometimes...he uh wants to do things I uh just can't do...So he would give me the pill so that I would relax and he could do things with me that I wouldn't normally agree with." she explained.

This had to be the most bizzarre case I'd ever heard of...Part of me wanted to laugh....and part of me was sickened by it all..


"Donnie Ray you need to re-examine that crime scene....Bev, get a tox report on Mrs. Richardson's blood stream that night and find out about that drug..."said Olivia..

"Mrs. Alexander...If I did this...I wasn't in my right mind...I had nothing against this woman..I liked her,She was helping my son ..He's 18...This is his senior year." she said.

"We'll need to talk to him and your husband...Mrs. Richardson...Where was your son when this happened?" asked Olivia..

"I don't know...I-I don't think he was home..." said Mrs. Richardson.

"Well how about your husband?" asked Olivia.

"Again,I don't know...I don't know...I don't remember a thing that happened  that night...I wished I could be of more help." she said.
 "Relax..I'll get the police report and check out the crime scene and interview the husband and the son.."I said.

"I'll get on that drug you were given...Is there any left at your home?" asked Beverly..

"Again..I don't know .....My husband usually purchased it and administered it to me...When he wanted to have wild sex." she said.

"Oh!" said Beverly who looked like she was blushing again....I found the whole thing humorous...Olivia looked a combonation of shocked and disgusted ,which nearly brought me to tears..
"Well Mrs. Richardson... We'll uh see what we can do..." said Olivia...

"My husband's friend and business associate ,Rollie Rollerson recommended you Mrs. Alexander..He said you were the best." she said.

Olivia smiled..."Oh did he?" she said.

"I take it you know Mr. Rollerson?" she said.

"Ohhh I know Mr. Rollerson quite well."said Olivia.. "Try to get some rest Mrs. Richardson...Maybe your memory will come back.." said Olivia..

"Thank you so much Mrs. Alexander, Mr. Alexander, Ms. West." she said as we left...

I put my arms around both Olivia and Beverly...

"I gotta tell you...You girls get some pretty crazy cases....and THIS case here takes the case...I just want to tell you...I'm honored to be working for you two.." I joked..
They both laughed....I kissed them both on the cheek...and hugged them...

"Let's go get Kayla...Take her to this new Micro Brewery that Josie told us about" said Beverly...

"Yeah..She needs some cheering up..." said Olivia...

"We need some cheering up after this weirdo case we just got ourselves into."said Beverly...We all busted out laughing.

IV-


When we returned to our office and home, we found the place immaculate as usual... Thanks to Kayla..

and Kayla was in Beverly's domicile ,dressed, watching television...


"Myyyy, don't you look nice..." said Olivia, upon seeing Kayla...We then noticed that her bags were packed..


"Leaving us baby?" said Olivia...

"I was going to look for an apartment tomorrow Cousin Liv, Cousin Bev...I can't continue to live off of you like this." she said.

"Kayla...you're family....We have plenty of room..Plus you've been a perfect roomie...This spot has never been this clean..."said Beverly..

"I can attest to that." joked Olivia, who playfully hugged Beverly....

"It's just...It's just...I don't know when I'm going back or if...I don't want to be a burden on anyone.." said Kayla..

"Girl, unpack your bags...You aren't a burden...And when you become one...I'll let you know..." said Bev..

Kayla began to tear up....

"Hey...Heyyyyy no crying....If anybody should be crying it should be us after the hellified case we got today..."I said..."Besides...We are taking you out tonight." I said.

"I don't know if I'm ready to go out.." said Kayla..

"Get ready...We won't take no for an answer..." said Olivia...
"You heard my wife...She's a hard one to argue with." I said.

"How would you know? You're whipped...You never argue with her.." joked Beverly....

I picked up a pillow and threw it at her...It missed...Then I charged after her...She ran away laughing...

"Auntay!!...Auntay!!...get your husband....AUNTAYYYYY!" she yelled as I grabbed her and threw her on the bed...She was howling laughing and trying to duck the pillow I was hitting her with..

"Stopppp...Stoppp Donnie Rayyyyy." she yelled, laughing and howling and swatting at my arms...

"I just made that bed up." said Kayla..looking at Beverly and I and shaking her head....

"Those two carry on like this all the time...Don't worry about it Kayla...As you see..I live with two big kids."laughed Olivia..

"But he is whipped isn't he? He looks at you so adoringly." laughed Kayla...

Olivia laughed..."Yeah he is...but I'm whipped too." she said.

"That's beautiful cousin Liv....I want a man to love me like that one day and I want to be in love with him like that too."said Kayla..

"It will come...but you gotta Kiss a lot of frogs before you find your Prince.." said Olivia.

V-


The four of us went to the tony new eatery that Josie had told us about...I ordered us all Burgers and Micro Brews...

"Oh My God, these burgers are off the hook." said Beverly...

''We need a place like this in the ATL. So many nice new places have opened around here since I left Philly..." said Kayla..


"Oh My God...These burgers are soooo good..Kevin and Sepia and Josie weren't lying.." said Olivia...

"Here comes the beers..." I said.


The waiter delivered the beers to our table..


"Normally,I don't drink beer...but I must admit...I like these.." said Kayla..


"And I like you.." said a slightly inebriated young man in a nice tailored suit....

"Excuse me?" said Kayla...

He did a double take...

"Beverly?? Beverly West??" he said.

"Hello Kendall." said Beverly...  "Auntay, Kayla..Donnie Ray ...This is Kendall Bridges...We were in law school together and he briefly worked in the Public Defenders Office together...After you left Auntay.."said Beverly..

"Ohh..Nice to make your acquaintence..." said Olivia...

He looked at Beverly...

"So what are you doing with yourself now of days Bev?" he asked..

"I work in private practice...I'm a partner at my aunt's law firm...Alexander and West"she said..

"Okayyyyy..good for you...Got your name on the plaque...I work at Driscoll and Bain law firm downtown...Been there for uh about three years now....You uh seein anybody?" he asked..

"I am.." said Beverly...

"It serious?" he asked..

"Pretty much!" said Beverly...

He then turned his attention to Kayla..

"And uh what about little cutie here?" he asked..


"That's my cousin...She's an attorney too, from Atlanta, she's visiting us..." said Beverly...

"Oh yeah? So uh...you want a tour of the city?" he asked..

"I'm from here...I just don't live here anymore.." said Kayla..

"Ohhhh..well, here is my card...If you uh want to get reacquainted with the city..Give me a call...Nice seeing you again Bev...and you too Kayla...Heh,heh,heh.." he said as he stumbled away...

I couldn't help but smile...

Kayla looked at Olivia..

"I see what you mean about Kissing Frogs Cousin Liv.." she remarked..
