Aphrodite
is a 21-year-old girl living in Las Angeles, CA. She is there for college though her life is
pretty much set. She grew up in New York
City. Although there are many nice
places to live in New York, she grew up in a home that Hollywood would rent out
for movies. Her trust funds would set
her up for not just her life but a couple generations. College is normally a
time for fun and experimentation and Aphrodite was no exception. She didn’t pay too much attention to her
grades but maintained a good enough academic record so she could stay at school
in California. After all, she was here
to get away from her family in a rebellion typical of young girls. She had worked in her dad’s office growing up
and knew that that’s not what she wanted to do.
At 5’5”, slender build, tanned skin and curly black hair, and wide
mouth, she was attractive in the classical sense. She
went out on a Thursday night like most Thursdays and hung out with
friends. She had no idea what kind of
attention she was attracting.
Larry
worked for a multi-million dollar company in New York City in the accounting
department. He liked his job and had
been there long enough to accumulate a lot of vacation days, which served his
passion for travelling. On this
particular occasion, he was going across the country. Given that he had gone across the world, this
is relatively a close trip to take the five hour flight to Burbank to visit his
brother. They are going to see a
Clippers game and Larry is excited that he can check off Staples Center from
his list of NBA stadiums he’d like to see.
His goal is to go to all of them by the time he checks out of this
life. His brother doesn’t drink, so
Larry decides to go to a bar alone. While
there, he hears people bad mouthing Bob Mueller for not finding evidence of
collusion between Trump and Russia.
Larry hates people from LA and arguing with them seems like fun. He watches conservative videos and is always
surprised how people like Jesse Waters and Will Witt will walk up to people and
start talking politics without the vitriolic, animalistic, backlash that he
always got in New York when he did the same.
He always believed the camera helped people stay calm but that was just
a guess. He jumped into the conversation
and said, “Why is it so difficult to believe?
Mueller can’t fabricate evidence, he tried for two years, nothing stuck”
“It was
there”
“Where?”
“He
wanted to build a hotel.”
“You
mean an international real estate man wanted to build a building
internationally? Whoa!”
“He
said he had no business with Russia”
“He
didn’t, it fell through.”
“Not
during the campaign”
“That’s
according to Cohen, who has already been caught lying under oath several times”
“Well
what about obstruction?”
“How
did he obstruct?”
“Firing
Comey”
“Did
the investigation stop after Comey was fired?”
“No,
they set up a special counsel, that’s where Mueller came in.”
“And
Andy MeCabe said it had no effect on the case and Comey said that Trump asked
him to investigate his satellite officials to make sure they were clean, and
Comey and Rosenstein told Trump he wasn’t under investigation so how do you
obstruct something you don’t know is going on?”
“He
knew they were lying”
“Yea,
see speculation doesn’t do well in court. You need a little thing called
‘evidence’”
“Well
he didn’t say no obstruction, he gave it to Barr”
“Yea to
protect himself from people like you.”
“What
do you mean?”
“Now
attorney general Barr wrote a memo before saying that there was no
obstruction. Mueller knows this so he
knows what Barr will say. By not making
a decision, which was his job, he gave it to Barr to be the bad guy so you
people can just say that since Trump appointed him, he’s backing Trump. Look, you’re already mad at Mueller for not
finding collusion, you would also be mad if he didn’t find obstruction. This way he saves face from the slanderous,
libelous, animalistic, chaos-loving leftist who refuse to believe that Trump
isn’t the worse person in the world like you.”
“Wow, a lot of name-calling. You know Mueller leaked that the Barr memo
doesn’t adequately describe the report?”
“The
name calling is mixed in with facts.
Mueller gave you a bone. Now you
and the media can run with conflict of interest. Not sure how you do that since Rosenstein
also signed off on Barr’s conclusion but facts haven’t dissuaded the media
before. Those leaks were by unnamed
sources. I’m beginning to think ‘unnamed
source’ means that the reporter is making it up.”
“You
have to admit, the country is in chaos”
“Yes,
but the reason is where we differ. I
think it’s because Democrats and the left are so pissed Trump won that they are
trying to undermine him and destroy the country so that it looks bad on
him. The Russians call it ‘scorched
Earth.’ Funny how the Democrat’s tactics
are the same as communist Russia. “
“Do you
blame the left for Mar-A-Lago too?”
“No,
that’s just stupid staffers”
“Or a
secret service that is having trouble protecting the president.”
“It’s
not the Secret Service’s fault. They’re
not ticket checkers. They run names
against a “Do Not Admit” list. If
they’re not on that list and the people hosting a party say someone can come
in, they come in. They’re like glorified
bouncers. The Chinese National with
malicious software was not on the Do Not Admit list. A staffer told the secret service to let the
national in because the last name matched a member of the club. I’m not a Chinese name genius but “Zheng” I
actually think is pretty common. It’s
the staff member’s fault for telling the secret service to let him in. Good on security for catching the national
before they could do any damage.”
“By the
way, I caught the not-so-subtle hint of implying that the left are communists”
“Because
they are. They’re also the real
colluders. The Clintons colluded with
Russia and Biden colluded with the Ukrainians”
“This
conversation is a little too serious for a bar, I’m going to go have some
fun. You may want to lighten up and chill. So angry.”
Larry
smiled. He didn’t think the conversation
got heated at all but he got accused of this a lot.
Larry
left the bar and went to Sunset Boulevard to go to another bar. The drinks were more expensive but he didn’t
mind. A girl followed him to the bar and
said, “You know, you kinda just threw out the Clinton’s colluded with the
Russians. Now I’m going to ask you to
back that up just like you told the guys you were arguing to back up their
point.”
“You
followed me here to say that?”
“Yup”
“Yup”
The
girl was 5’9” slender body with large breasts and a firm butt with long dark
brown hair and olive skin. Larry was 6’
husky build and bald so he liked the attention from an attractive girl. He knew from experience he probably will mess
this up. He says, “Bill Clinton made a
request through the Clinton foundation that he wanted to meet 15 Russians. Two are of note. The first is Arkady Dvorkovich”
“Stop,
one at a time. Who is that?”
“Dvorkovich
was a top aide to Medvedev, who was the president before Putin.”
“Okay
so a while ago.”
“Not
that long ago. It’s 2010. Anyway Dvorkovich is one of the highest
government officials to serve on Rosatom board of supervisors.”
“2010
was nine years ago.”
“It’s
still collusion and holy shit time flies!
But think about the timeline.
June 2010, Clinton meets with Dvorkovich and in October 2010, Uranium
One deal is approved by Hillary Clinton when she was Secretary of State”
“Okay,
so what? What does Dvorkovic have
anything to do with that? What is Uranium
One by the way?”
“Rosatom,
the company that he is one of the highest officials for, bought an Iranian
company called Uranium One that they used to make Iran a nuclear power.”
“So,
Bill Clinton meets with a guy on the board of someone who a couple months later
buys a company in Iran that can make nuclear weapons”
“Yes,
and Hillary Clinton approved and actually helped facilitate the deal.”
“Alright,
if all that’s true, you may have a point.
You said there’s a second one, who was it?”
“Viktor
Vekselberg”
“Let me
guess, he’s in charge of a scandal too?”
“Have
you heard of Skolkovo?”
“No”
“Skolkovo
was an idea that Vekselberg had to make an area of Russia, called Skolkovo, to
set up a Silicon Valley equivalent of high tech companies in Russia. There were like 25 companies and 22 or
something were close with Hillary Clinton.
She advocated for this as Secretary of State.”
“Okay,
so what? They want Amazon and Facebook
in Russia.”
“It was
a lie. They used it to steal
intellectual property from America and they used the technology we gave them
for military technology to build a more sophisticated military. Hillary either fell for it or purposely armed
Russia.”
“How
could Bill Clinton know it’s a problem?”
“When
people give you hundreds of thousands of dollars for a speech, you got to be
suspicious. Well not really, you know
it’s a bribe!”
“Who
did that?”
“A lot!
The biggest one was Renaissance One gave $ 500,000 to Bill Clinton for speaking
fee. Then Renaissance One and Clinton
started talking about Uranium One being a good investment.”
“I
don’t think it’s a big deal”
“So
meeting with Russians in Trump tower that leads nowhere and only lasts five
minute is worthy of collusion but when Clinton meets with Russians that leads
to them stealing military secrets from us and they were paid handsomely for the
meeting, unlike Trump Jr. That’s not
suspicious?”
“Okay,
whatever so Renaissance One seemed to know about the acquisition so insider
trading with Bill Clinton who probably told Renaissance One that Rosatom was
about to make the deal.”
Larry
nodded, “Wow, that was pretty quick.”
“Are
you intimidated by a smart woman?”
“No,
actually the opposite. Problem is, you
followed me here presumably to argue in favor of Clinton but you seem not to
rebut”
“It’s
conspiracy. All you got is Bill Clinton
was overpaid for speaking fees and met with business men who later made other
business deals. You didn’t really
connect the dots.”
“What
do you want? An e-mail or recording of
Clinton telling Vekselberg and Dvorkovic to steal our Uranium and military
technology?”
“That
would help.”
“Ok,
well I don’t have that so you can believe what you want.”
“Well
it’s getting late, I should go home. I’m
super-tired.”
“Yea, I
think it’s time to go too.”
Larry
and the girl left together and while walking out Larry saw something that
stopped him dead in his tracks.
Aphrodite
is drunk and tired after dancing all night.
She got bottle service and had been there a while. Her jewelry and clothes screamed her wealth
but it had never gotten her in trouble.
She decides the street is too crowded to catch an Uber so goes down a
side street. While there, she feels a
sharp object in her back. She freezes
and a voice in her ear says, “Give me your purse and take off all your
jewelry.”
In a
frightened voice, Aphrodite says, “Alright, just please don’t hurt me.” As she
hands over her purse and the guy grabs it waiting for her to remove her
jewelry.
A male
voice yells out, “Hey, is everything okay here?”
Larry
recognized Aphrodite as the daughter of the CEO of the company he works
for. He saw men following her that she
hadn’t seem to notice so told the girl he was with to stay there, he’d be right
back. The girl followed him with her
eyes and saw the cute girl and felt hurt.
She would just observe what happened with him and this girl that Larry
seemed to know. They went down a side
street so she stood across the street so she could still see but was far enough
away that nobody would notice her. Larry
walked up and when he saw Aphrodite hand over her purse, he knew his instincts
were right. She was being robbed. He called out, “Is everything Okay here”
hoping that would scare the robber away.
He approached them and the knifemen said, “Just get out of here, this is
none of your business”
“Just
give the girl back her purse man”
Suddenly,
a knife was at his throat. Larry didn’t
realize someone was watching out.
Aphrodite recognized Larry and mouthed the words “sorry” to him. Larry grabbed the man’s arm that was around
his neck, leaned back, ducked under the man’s raised arm while pulling on the
arms holding the knife sending it into the man’s own torso. He grabbed the knife from the man’s hand and
stabbed him two more times in the same place and then in the handspring so he
wouldn’t be in the mood to fight. With
the guy screaming on the ground in pain and Larry holding a bloody knife he
stared back at two incredulous people and said, “Let the girl go.”
The man
grabbed Aphrodite and pulled her in front of him with a knife to her throat and
said, “Don’t come any closer, I’ll kill her.”
Larry
rolled his eyes. Aphrodite’s face went
from incredulous to stunned fear again.
Larry could see the man was shaking.
He said, “Why? I told you I’d let
you go. Just go.”
“What
about my boy?”
“Give
me the girl, we’ll walk away and you can take care of him.”
“Hospitals
ask questions. They’re expensive
too. He doesn’t have health insurance.”
“I
didn’t stab him in fatal areas, just painful ones. He’ll live, just take him home and cover the
wounds. He’ll be out of commission a
while but he’ll recuperate.”
“I
don’t know man, he looks pretty bad.
Universal health care hasn’t happened in California because the
Republicans shot it down.”
“I’m
not even sure if there are Republicans in the California government.”
“There
are”
“Not
enough that you can blame things on them.
Anyway, you’re lucky that they don’t have free healthcare here. It’s pretty much killing Europe.”
“What
do you mean?”
“Well there’s only two ways to distribute scarce resources, which medical care is, price and rationing or time as I call it.”
“Well there’s only two ways to distribute scarce resources, which medical care is, price and rationing or time as I call it.”
“You’re
not speaking my language”
“Think
of a bar. When it’s an open bar, you
normally have to wait in line for drinks.
When drinks are really expensive, you get the drinks quicker because
there’s a smaller line. Healthcare works
the same way. You pay for it, you get
care right away, you don’t have to wait.”
“Ummm
okay, so you’re saying America has better healthcare than Britain?”
“Yes,
take cancer, which is a disease that time is of the essence. Breast Cancer survival after five years of
treatment is 89% in the United States and 81% in England.”
“And we
eat like shit”
“Yea,
well English food isn’t so good.”
“But
we’re so fat. Breast cancer is mostly women. Women take care of themselves more so that
doesn’t mean anything”
“And
yet, our mortality is less. It’s even
more poignant for prostate cancer. After
five years, 83% of British live but in the United States it’s 97% survival
rate. So basically you’re argument is
completely shit.”
“It’s
because they waited too long”
“250,000
people have been waiting for medical treatment for more than six months in
England. That’s only going to get worse
because there are 39,000 nursing spots unfilled, which is 10% of all available
spots. 9,000 posts for doctors are
unfilled and they’re saying that 750 practices will close within five years”
“Why?”
“There’s
no money in being a doctor in England.
Like my dad does cataract surgery.
Half of all cataract surgeries are denied in Britain because the
government calls it limited clinical value.”
“What
are cataracts?”
“Cloud
over the lens of the eye. Basically, a
black thing that’s covering your eye and leads to blindness if untreated.”
Just
then sirens could be heard and three cop cars pulled up with lights
flashing. Larry said, “You probably
shoulda let the girl go.”
The
cars came from both directions on the street, they had nowhere to go. A cop said over a speaker, “Drop the weapon,
let the girl go.”
The man
did exactly that and Aphrodite ran toward Larry and wrapped her arms around him
hugging tightly. He hugged back. Aphrodite said thank you and buried her head
in his chest. The girl from the bar
walked up behind them and said, “Am I interrupting something?”
“Aphrodite
pulled away and said, “Sorry, I’m uh….”
“I work
for her dad” Larry said.
“Yea,
he just helped me with some assholes”
“I
know, I saw the whole thing. I’m the one
that called the cops”
Larry
said, “Thank you for that.”
“You’re
welcome. So, now that we helped you
out. Can I go home with him now or do
you have a problem with that” Even though she was talking to Aphrodite, she was
looking accusingly at Larry. Larry just
shrugged his shoulders.
Aphrodite
said, “I couldn’t care less what you do with him.” With a smile
One of
the officers said, “I need to ask you some questions first.”
“Yes
sir” Larry replied
Larry
and Aphrodite answered all the police officer questions. Aphrodite said she wanted to press charges so
went down to the station to make a formal complaint. Larry was let go and he and the girl from the
bar went back to Larry’s hotel. When
they got in the girl slapped Larry across the face and shoved him on the bed
and straddled him pinning his shoulders down.
She said with a smile, “You know, when you meet a girl at a bar, it
doesn’t look good to leave to help another chic out”
“You
know, when you first meet a guy and you watch him stab another man
repeatedly. Maybe getting him alone to
attack him isn’t a good idea.”
The
girl seemed to contemplate that but then realized the position she was in and
the fact that Larry had yet to try defend himself and he already proved that he
could if he wanted to. Larry pulled her
hands off him and wrapped his around hers and turned her around so he was on
top. He kissed her on the neck and
worked her way to her lips. She kissed
back and wrapped her legs around him kicking off her sandals. .
Larry
removed his shirt and pulled off the girl’s.
He kissed her again and worked his mouth down her neck and chest kissing
her breasts before getting down to her shorts.
He undid them and pulled them off.
The girl put her foot against his chest and extended. Larry stood up in retreat. The girl sat up and undid Larry’s pants. Larry removed his shoes and stepped out of
his pants. He lied on the girl again but
she stiff armed him. She said, “Take off
your socks. If I’m going to be naked,
you are too.”
Larry
noted she was still in her bra and panties but he removed his socks and his boxers
so he was naked. The girl sat up and
stroked his penis. It didn’t take long
for him to become erect and a condom be placed over it. He removed her bra and panties and lied back
on her as she wrapped her four limbs around him. A little while later they were lying next to
each other panting. The girl turned her
back to Larry and grabbed his arm pulling it around her resting it on her
stomach. Larry turned towards her and
put his other arm under her neck as an extension of the pillow. He felt her body relax and she said, “I
thought you Trump supporters sucked in bed.”
“Trump
is married to a supermodel”
“You’re
not a billionaire.”
“True”
“Good
Night”
“Night”
They
both went to sleep and exchanged numbers in the morning. Larry hung out with his brother the next day
and flew back to New York. He never saw
the girl again.
