Morning After Blues

Sam Mother's Diner is an institution in this neighborhood...It was here long before the three shopping centers, long before the new apartments, lofts and condos were built...Long before the cul de sacs and new homes...

Sam Mother's diner and Josies Bar and grille are probably the two oldest establishments in this neighborhood, which now boasts numerous shops, Three shopping centers, Apartments, Lofts, Condos, an influx of professional people of color...a local campus of Community College and new clubs, Aqua Bar, Stoleys, Mulberry Street, Bottom of The C. and The Mermaid Crab House..

The customers are now Lawyers, doctors, students, cops and young families...No longer gangsters and the dregs of the earth...

Lt. Arthur Tragg walked in....He looked beat...

Rough night last night Artie?" asked Sam Mother.

There was no response...

"Wanna talk about it Artie?" he asked..

"No I don't wanna talk about it..I want some fried eggs, fried hard, yolks broke...some bacon and some coffee..." he said..

"Okay, okay..."said Sam Mother..



Who quickly got his breakfast ready... Arthur Tragg had been a lot more gregarious the weeks before...


Coming in in freshly tailored suits, manicure, fresh new cologne with Karen Page on his arms, Chatty, talkative...Buying her Breakfast, sometimes bringing her in for lunch...When he was by himself he talked up sports, the horses....He was a completely different guy...
.

In the past week his fortunes had changed...B.L. Benz had been fully exonerated of the murder charges thanks to his legal team of Olivia Bennett-Alexander, her niece, Beverly West-East, her husband, Nelson East....Liv's husband, Donnie Ray Alexander and Para-Legal , Josie Boyd





.. and Assistant District Attorney Karen Page


had returned to his side as his girlfriend...and Arthur Tragg

 had become a beast to be around...

Assistant District Attorney Karen Page walked into the Diner...She looked beat..Her hair not styled like it usually is....

Sam smiled..

"Must have been some party huh?" he said..

She smiled...

"It certainly was...and the party afterwords was , woooooooooooooo.." she said and giggled..

Sam Mother laughed...


Attorneys Yvette Jones and Beatrice "Bee Bee" Evans walked in together...

Yvette looked splendid in a Gray and white sweat suit....Beatrice had on a jean mini skirt and jean top, with a hint of a red floral bra..

"Good Morning ladies!" said Sam Mother..

He was greeted with smiles..

"Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Sammm.."they both said..

"Ms. Yvette, I'm surprised Gary isn't with you..." he said.

"He's out like a light...


I put my make up mirror near his nose to make sure he was alive."joked Yvette.

"My whole crew is out...






Keith, Sofia and Kahlil are snoring  and I didn't even check on Ms. Jade....I ran into  Ms. Yvette on my way in.."said Bee Bee..

"Grab a seat ladies..."said Karen Page...

They put in their orders...

Omelettes to order,

Bacon
coffee

and Mimosas...

Lieutenant Tragg angrily starred at the three women, smiling, eating and sipping Mimosas....

He especially stared at Karen...

She and he should be coming from his place hungover after a night of wild sex....Instead she was probably coming from B.L.'s place or worse..He was still in her bed, sleeping it off..


He had heard that B.L. had had a big party last night at Red Booth with all of his lawyer friends...
 They had what they called a  "Freedom Party" for B.L. at Red Booth.. He had been found not guilty of murder and released from County Lock Up where he'd been for about a month...
Attorneys  Beatrice "Bee Bee" Evans
 Keith Jones
 Jade Lee
 Sofia Garcia
 and Kahlil Ahmed


joined

 Olivia Bennett-Alexander, his chief Defense counsel!
 Donnie Ray Alexander, her husband and investigator...
 Beverly West East- Her niece and co defense counsel...
 Attorney Nelson East, Second chair
 Josie Boyd, para legal and law student..
 Attorney Yvette Jones
 Gary Lockwood, Former cop, Now Investigator for the D.A.'s office and as whipped a man as there ever was in his opinion..
 and Karen Page...of course Karen Page, Assistant District Attorney....The girl who should have been his...
and B.L. Benz, host of HARD BOTTOM, once a good friend and now the man he hated more than anything...
His plot to set B.L. up and separate him from Karen had gone sideways....Some freak had murdered the hooker they had hired  who drugged him and lured him into that hotel and the entire case had exploded into more than anybody expected...Liv and Beverly got him off... His good friend, Grisly had gone rogue and killed his C.I. to shut him up and got himself killed in the process..

But worse...Karen..

Sexy Karen had gone back to B.L.


He finished his eggs and bacon...His coffee had grown cold..

"Hey Sam...Could you top this off? It's gotten cold.."said Lt. Tragg..




II-

"Yvette, you and Bee Bee look so refreshed....I look like hell.."said Sharon..

 "Ohhh stop it Karen, no you don't." said Bee Bee..
"You look fine.." said Yvette.

"After the party last night...I didn't get much sleep.."said Karen...

"And you think any of us did? Did you not see the way we were dressed and the way our men were looking at us..." said Yvette with a sly smile..

''B.L. was all over me..." said Karen laughing...

"He's been locked up for a month.. What do you expect?"said Bee Bee..

B.L. 's eyes popped out of his head as soon as they got to her place...He had her dress off in record style..

and smothered her in kisses.....

before they knew what was happening they were in the middle of her bed... she was riding him...moving up and down...


"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu...ummmmmmmmmmmmmph, baby you feel soooo damn good.."he moaned and the bed began to squeak and rocked to the side . 

They continued kissing passionately while she rode him slowly....

"You feel so damn good baby..." he said..

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmph!~ So do you!!" she moaned...

"I've missed you so much." he said.

"I've missed you too!" she said.

"Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…." he moaned..


The legs on her bed rocked so hard ,it seemed as though they might break...


"Oh my god, B.l...ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" she cooed...


"Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww lawwwwwwwwwwwwd" he moaned...


EIGHT TO NINE HOURS  went by...As B.L. came and came hard, his body trembling...Karen's body was trembling too...

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.." she moaned..


Before she knew what was happening, or could catch her breath...They were in the middle of her bed...making love a second time that night...

"Ouuuu B.L. you really missed me didn't you?" she exclaimed.. He had brought her to four orgasms...

Before she had left to go eat breakfast this morning..

B.L. had ambushed her at the bathroom door, smothering her with kisses...

"You know I love you don't you?" he asked..

"If I didn't...I'm sure of it now..." she said, smiling..


"I guess you're right...Wowwwwww! B.L. should go to jail more often....Wooooooooo, he put a hurtin on me.." laughed Karen..


 "Awwww good for you....I'm so glad you didn't...Uh well you know.."said Yvette, eyeing Lt. Tragg at the counter..

He had been trying to eaves drop their conversation...
"Sam...a second round of Mimosas....I'm buying.."said Bee..Bee..

"Ouuu look at you..."laughed Yvette

As more Mimosas arrived...

"Sam. some water with those please.."said Karen...

Lt. Tragg seemed out of sorts...

"You and uh Karen came in here together a few mornings....What happened?  You two have a falling out?   Oh yeah, B.L. is out of the pokey now...Guess she's gone back to him.."said Sam Mother..

"Ya know Sam...I did ask for my coffee to be topped off a minute ago, didn't I?" said Lt. Tragg...Irritated by Sam Mother's questions..

''Okay...Okay....such a grouch!" said Sam Mother.

III-

"I think I'm going to cut down my drinking...and when I am drinking...I'm going to find a new bar...Not Curly's…." said Karen...

"Olivia and Donnie Ray told me about a nice quiet classy place...Not far from Curly's that you and B.L. might like.."said Yvette..

"Here come our drinks..."said Bee Bee..

as their Mimosas arrived...

"Karen, I'll drink yours...Since you are quitting.." laughed Bee Bee..

"I didn't say I was quitting today....Besides....That's just Champaigne mixed with O.J.  Not the heavy stuff...By the way...How did you guys get home last night?" asked Karen..

"Olivia hired a Mini Bus  driving service....They took all 12 of us from our residence to Red Booth and then home...She knew we'd be drinking heavy and she didn't want any of us driving under the influence.."said Yvette..

"Good Ole Liv, She thinks of everything...Can you imagine all of you lawyers getting busted for DUI's right after you sprung B.L.?" laughed Karen...

"You and B.L. didn't drive did you?" asked Yvette..

"No, we took an Uber...His car in my apartment complexes garage...as is mine...We didn't want to take any chances on his first night of freedom....We were kind of in the same mind as Olivia.."said Karen...

"Good everybody got home safe and sound.."said Yvette...

"I'm surprised they aren't here for Breakfast..."said Karen...

"After a night like last night...They cook breakfast and eat in...

I know my girls Liv and Beverly....They're good cooks...and if Josie stayed with them,,chances are they cooked breakfast for everybody at their place...





"They'll probably come out for Brunch tomorrow..." said Yvette...

 "That's because they're married as I hope to be again one day..."said Karen...
"You're probably right.."said Yvette..

"I'm going to order some to go breakfast platters for



Keith, Sofia and Kahlil....I know what they like.." said Bee Bee, who got up and went to the counter...

"Good Morning Lt. Tragg." she said.

"Good Morning Bee Bee.." he said..


"Well now that that trial is over you can get back to normal..I heard the cops caught the real killer, The hooker's husband...He was some kind of Preacher...Can you believe that?  He was stalking her...He followed her there...He thought she had another john...He raped her and strangled her in a fit of rage.." said Yvette..

"Yes, I heard about it..He denied knowing B.L. or Detective Grisly or that Sam Dolen fellow..He said he had nothing to do with any set up....I believe him...After he killed her...B.L. was lying across the bed snoring....He figured the cops would blame him and he'd be in the clear, which he nearly was..If he could have kept it in his pants....He just might have gotten away with it.."laughed Karen..

"That explains the murder...but what about the set up? The killer just happened to run up on that situation by happenstance..What about the drugging and the phony photos?"asked Yvette..

"I've got some ideas about that....Sam Dolen  bankrolled the whole thing..He paid the Private Investigator and the girl....but B.L. said he didn't know Dolen , didn't really know the girl..So why would this cheap hood be doing this?  Also that dead Detective, Grisly? He came in the restaurant, really sweaty and stressed out the night before he died ,wanted to talk to Lt. Tragg…" said Karen..

"About what?"asked Yvette..

"I don't know...He's dead now, so I can't ask him....B.L. says that he doesn't know him either...but he knew Lt. Tragg." she said and peered at Lt. Tragg..

 who was finishing
his cup of coffee..

He tossed some money on the counter...

"You know that was technically two cups of coffee Artie.."said Sam...

"Come on Sam.."said Lt. Tragg...

"No you come on.."said Sam Mother..

He reluctantly tossed another dollar on the counter..

"Chisler." he said and walked past Karen and Yvette..

"Good Mornin Yvette." he said. He purposely ignored Karen...

 "Good Morning Lt. Tragg...Don't you see Karen here too?" she said.
pointing to her friend..

He said nothing...He kept walking...

"It's Okay Vettie….I guess he's mad at me for getting back with B.L. and not giving him any...I guess the flowers will stop coming now...  I've got some bad thoughts in my mind....About him!  If I ever find out he had anything to do with setting B.L. up...I'm going to have his badge and personally prosecute him to the fullest extent of the law.." said Karen...

''As well you should,...You really think Him? Lt. Tragg could have put something like that together?" asked Yvette.

Karen thought for a minute...

"You know, you have a point...This plot was wayyy above his paygrade...Nahhhhhh." she said.

and both women laughed...

''Well guys.. I'm outta here...

My crew should be waking up about now..It was nice...See ya around.."said Bee Bee..

 "See you Monday Bee Bee...Tell everybody I said Hi."said Yvette..

''See you Bee Bee." said Karen...She looked at Yvette..."Aren't you going to get a to go platter for Gary.?

.I know he's at your place." said Karen...

"He's not going to want a To go platter...

He's going to wake up wanting me...Naked!"

said Yvette, with a sly grin....remembering last night...



and imagining a second round of the wild sex she and Gary had had the night before after the party..


"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.."laughed Karen as Yvette waved and left...

"Anything else I can get you?" asked Sam Mother...

"Nah...I'm good, but thank you anyway.."said Karen..

She got in her car and drove back to her apartment complex...

B.L. was up  He saw Karen and smiled..

"You went out for Breakfast?" he asked..

"I went to Sam Mothers Diner....I'm sorry, did you want a to go platter?" she asked..

"Nah, maybe some coffee...but that's okay...I'll take you!" he said..


"Oh Myyyy" said Karen Page, blushing and laughing...

B.L. pulled her to him and kissed her passionately......

She slipped  her dress off and stepped out of her sandals...

They began kissing again..

and in no time she was back in the center of her bed...riding him like a surfer rides the waves....

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh B.L. you are insatiable , you can't seem to get enough..."she cooed..

"Awwwwwww lawwwwd! I can't ...ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" he moaned...

"Can we be like this ....alll the time?" she asked....

"YESSSSSSSSSS...I must be out of my mind....Having a dish like you and neglecting you as much as I do... Being without you for a month has shown me what I've been missing....ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh  myyyy goddddd!   Ummmmmmmmmmm.." he moaned..

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh B.L." she moaned...

They were back in bed , making sweet love....

The bed was squeaking out of control...the headboard was rattling...

The sounds of pure ecstacy was coming from her room..

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.."

"AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!"



Unknown to either of them, Lt. Tragg stood outside her door, listening to them make love and seething with rage!
