I gasp.
“A sex club.”
Carrie nods.
“Yeah, that’s what I think it was. I think he’s been engaging in group sex, to be honest. He’s always with at least two women and my suspicion is that he’s banging these hoes on the reg. It’s so weird because I seriously thought he was normal! He comes off as normal, after all.”
I nod.
“Meaning he has friends, a job, and normal-looking social media?”
My cousin nods, her brown curls bobbing.
“Yeah, and I know him through my friend, Ramona, so it’s not like he’s some random off the street. But yeah, it seems that Bruce has this secret life that Ramona and her husband are unaware of, and that he’s actually a male whore who uses prostitutes,” she finishes. “At least, that’s what I suspect.”
I nod thoughtfully.
“So are you still interested in him?”
Carrie bites her lip for a moment before nodding.
“Yeah, I think so because he’s really gorgeous, Tess. Not only that but he’s incredibly charismatic, and has a good job, and all that stuff we’re supposed to look for. So I want to confirm it,” she says with a wink.
“You mean, confirm that he’s a male whore?” I ask in a dry tone. “Really?”
She shrugs.
“No, because I already know that he’s a male whore. I can feel it in my bones. But what Bruce doesn’t realize is that I’m a female whore.”
“No you’re not!” I squeal playfully. “You’re a secretary at an architectural firm! You’re totally not a lady of the night.”
But my cousin gets a crafty look on her face then.
“Yeah, but I’ve been ramping up the sex appeal, Tess. I’ve decided that I’m going to go to one of those sex parties while Bruce is there, and I’m going to do something that shocks him.”
I giggle.
“Like what? Get drunk and come onto him?”
“Hell no, nothing so crass!” my cousin exclaims. “I’ve decided I’m going to pull a train.”
I stare at her.
“No way. No fucking way.”
Carrie merely nods.
“Yes, I am. Bruce clearly likes fucking multiple women, and so I’m going to do the equivalent. I’m going to do a gangbang in front of him, and my guess is that it’s going to turn him on. I mean, it’s sexy right? A bunch of horny, hung men plugging all your holes as you squirm with ecstasy?”
The truth is that the description turns me on a bit, and I feel a little hot under the collar. But I fix my cousin with a look.
“Yeah, but what if your plan backfires? I mean, what if Bruce sees you and decides you’re the type-I’d-like-to-fuck, but not the type-I’d-like-to-marry?”
“Tess, really?” Carrie exclaims. “You are way too serious about this marriage thing. I mean, you’re in the middle of a divorce, so if anyone, you should know how little that piece of paper means. Besides, you can’t live your life for other people,” she says in a knowing tone. “You have to make yourself happy before you can focus on anyone else.”
I nod slowly. Maybe this is the time to confess my sins because the fact is that my cousin’s pretty out there. I mean, Carrie’s basically revealing that she plans on going to a sex party to get gang-banged, and all for the purpose of attracting some guy’s attention. It’s insane, right? So maybe I should fess up as well because I haven’t exactly been a good girl either.
“Well, maybe,” I concede in a slow voice. “Actually, I support you, Car. We all have to be bad girls sometimes, and why not now, when we’re young? It won’t be half so fun if we wait until we’re in our forties.”
Carries flaps her hand at me over the screen.
“Forties?” she laughs. “Girl, not only is that a lifetime away, but we won’t be able to attract these guys when we’re in our forties. I mean, they want hot, horny young women, not middle-aged ladies with limps.”
I giggle then.
“Who says I’m going to have a limp when I’m forty?”
My cousin giggles as well.
“Well, if you fuck enough men in the next two decades, then you will be limping.”
We both collapse into laughter then, and the atmosphere is so mirthful and relaxed that I decide to reveal my secret to my cousin.
“Actually, I am seeing someone,” I say. “I know my divorce isn’t final yet, but it’s fine. Rolly and I are separated, and we’re both seeing other people already.”
Carrie nods.
“I knew it. See? When you’re young, life moves fast. There’s no need to dwell over what did and didn’t work in the past.”
I nod.
“Yeah, but there’s a catch, Car.”
“What is it?” she asks expectantly. “Is he an axe murderer? A felon who’s terrorizing the women of New York?”
I shake my head, but then slowly begin to nod.
“Actually, he is a felon,” I say. “He was convicted for some crypto scam, and he’s behind bars. Not only that, but I’m actually dating Rolly’s dad, Roland Barker. So yes, I’m seeing my former father in law.”
