  MADISON

  Grandmother…

  GRANDMOTHER ELLA

  Madison…never pass up a good chance to shut the hell up.

  Madison threw her purse on her shoulder and exited the room. I sat there alone with Grandmother Ella. I didn’t know what to say or if I should say anything.

  33

  On his way to the theatre, Trenity stopped by Madison’s house. Madison escorted Trenity into the kitchen.

  MADISON

  You care for a glass of wine?

  TRENITY

  Yes sure. Chardonnay. SO how have you been?

  MADISON

  Good. And you?

  TRENITY

  Doing well. I have some papers here I need you to sign.

  MADISON

  So you really want this divorce.

  TRENITY

  I think that it is best.

  MADISON

  What if I decide not to sign?

  TRENITY

  I don’t what to go through this. We have talked about it. You and I agreed on this.

  Madison pulled the papers from the clasp envelope. She was thumbing through the paper when Trenity’s cell phone buzzed. Trenity picked up the phone and saw Noah’s name appear. He pressed END and turned the phone face down.

  MADISON

  What is this about me paying you spousal support?

  TRENITY

  Well for one you make more money than I do. I have been good to you and your family. I want part of the oil money that you and your family will be getting on the new oil wells that you all have coming. Now after the barrels start rolling you will convey 10% of all profits.

  MADISON

  You must be out of your damn mind to think that I will give you anything. I am the one that caught you with your dick inside of someone else.

  TRENITY

  We are not here to discuss that. I was accustomed to a certain lifestyle. I do well with the pharmacy but I have to keep up with what I had when I was with you.

  MADISON

  I cannot believe that you are this trifling.

  TRENITY

  What do you mean?

  MADISON

  You will not get any monies from me. You left this marriage for someone else. I will give these papers to my attorney. We will draw up something and present it to you.

  TRENITY (taking the sip of his wine)

  Now there are almost one billion barrels of oil in this.

  MADISON

  That’s correct.

  TRENITY

  Well, just to make sure that we are on the same page…if that oil should happen to stop flowing for any reason…If you were to become incapacitated – you are still my wife and all that you have will come over to me. Now I suggest that you study long and hard about any decisions that you make.

  MADISON (leaning over to Trenity)

  Let me tell you something. The best way to understand me is to talk to my friends….and my enemies. My friends are in the state house. My enemies are going to be hard to find.

  Trenity stood from the table.

  TRENITY

  By the way the little deal that you and your grandmother got going with Robin, think long and hard before you execute anything else.

  MADISON

  What are you talking about?

  TRENITY

  You trying to kill Brian by having him run off of the road, your grandmother paying Robin to marry Dwight so that he can gain what he thinks will be part of the family’s business.

  MADISON

  How do you know this?

  TRENITY

  Ah baby, you don’t know who you married? That sixty grand that you promised Robin – I want it today. So write me a check – NOW!

  MADISON

  I am not writing you shit.

  TRENITY

  Okay.

  Trenity picked up his phone and dialed a number. He looked over at Madison and gave her a wink. He picked up the empty glass from the table and handed it to her to refill. Madison poured him another glass of Chardonnay.

  TRENITY

  Dwight…what’s going on brother-in-law?....Really…Look I am over here talking with your sister about some things. As you know we are going through a divorce. Everything seems to be going okay but I need to sit and talk with you about something…Great, great. I can meet you then. See you soon.

  Trenity ended the call and placed the phone on the table.

  TRENITY

  Now are going to write the check or do I need to go ahead with my plans.

  MADISON

  You are one sick bastard.

  Madison pulled the checkbook from her purse that was on the counter. As she was writing out the check Trenity stood over her. She tore the check from the book and handed it to him.

  Trenity looked at the check and smiled.

  34

  ROBIN

  How old were you when your mother passed?

  DWIGHT

  About twelve.

  ROBIN

  I am so sorry to hear that.

  DWIGHT

  Thanks.

  ROBIN

  How did she die?

  DWIGHT (with sorry in his voice)

  She was killed.

  ROBIN

  Oh wow – I didn’t know.

  DWIGHT

  I know. Tell me, did my grandfather ever talk about me when you nursed him?

  ROBIN

  A few times but it was always brief. There was one time when he was sleep and he called out your name several times.

  DWIGHT

  What did he say?

  ROBIN

  It was always “Dwight I’m sorry”, “Dwight, Dwight”, and “Karen you must never tell Dwight”

  DWIGHT

  He actually said “Karen”.

  ROBIN

  Yeah. Who is she?

  DWIGHT

  That’s my mother’s middle name.

  By the time that dinner was over a stranger walked over to the table where Robin and I sat. He laid a packet on the table that had my name on it. I called out to him but he was gone in the blinking of an eye. As I reached for the envelope Robin sipped on her tea.

  I pulled out this thick packet of papers.

  Early Saturday morning, Trenity got out of bed and decided to head to the lakefront for a brisk morning jog. As he shuffled along the running path he thought about Noah. Noah was handsome and sexy in a way that Trenity knew he wanted to be with him. Whenever Trenity saw him walking in the room, his dick got hard. Whenever this feeling came over him, he wanted to approach him from behind, place his hard dick between Noah’s ass cheeks and say to him, “Squeeze.” He desperately wanted to have Noah’s honey colored legs wrapped around him, but not at the risk of losing his livelihood. But that is what happened when he was caught by Madison.

  After running three miles and fantasizing about Noah giving him a blow job and then blasting his mouth with a healthy amount of his seed, Trenity turned around and headed back to his apartment.

  When he arrived home, Noah was still asleep in the bed. Trenity leaned over and gave Noah a gentle kiss. This awakened him. Noah stretched and yawned with a smile.

  TRENITY

  Good morning sleepy head.

  NOAH

  Good morning. Have you been on your run?

  TRENITY

  Yes, while someone stayed in the bed and slept.

  NOAH

  You should have woke me up.

  TRENITY (pulling off his sweaty clothes)

  I need to tell you something.

  NOAH

  What?

  TRENITY

  I went to visit Madison the other day.

  NOAH

  Did she sign the divorce papers?

  TRENITY

  Well not exactly.

  NOAH

  What do you mean not exactly?

  TRENITY

  She didn’t like the part of the spousal support.

  NOAH

  She has no choice. She makes more than you do in a day. (Trenity gave Noah a hard stare) I am not trying to be harsh but it’s true. Did you tell her that you lost the pharmacy?

  TRENITY

  Why would I tell her that?

  NOAH

  I don’t know. Maybe she would have felt compassionate and gave you a gift.

  Trenity went and pulled out a safe. He punched in a code and the door released. Noah tried to peek around him to see what he was doing. Trenity closed it back and walked over to the bed and started to make cash rain down on Noah.

  Noah is a masculine man but he lay back on the bed and allowed the bills to fall all over him. Once Trenity was finished…

  TRENITY

  That’s five thousand dollars. Now go pay your bills and take a LITTLE and buy you something.

  NOAH

  Come here and let me smell your pheromones.

  TRENITY

  I need to shower first.

  NOAH

  No you don’t ….come here.

  Trenity walked over to the bed. Noah pulled him on top of him and they begin to kiss gently. Noah rubbed his hands over Trenity’s waves in his head. After about five minutes of foreplay Trenity made him lay on his back because he wanted to see his face when he put his manhood in him. Trenity wanted him to hold on to him and grab him up and tell him how good that dick felt. Before Trenity stuck his nine inches of pure meat in him he fingered that ass a little more, then lubed it nice and good as well as his dick.

  He placed the head at Noah’s hole and he looked at him.

  NOAH

  Go easy.

  It was like he stuck his manhood in heaven. It was some nice ass. Trenity loved that he was the only one getting it.

  NOAH

  Baby don’t go to deep!

  TRENITY

  Baby this some good ass! Aw fuck!

  With every thrust he did in Noah Trenity looked at him and Noah closed his eyes and grabbed him tight. Trenity started to whine and stick with more speed, Noah just held on and was moaning out.

  NOAH

  I love you so much baby.

  TRENITY

  You love my dick.

  NOAH

  Yea baby I love it.

  TRENITY

  I am about to bust!

  Trenity exited Noah’s anus shooting all over him.

  NOAH

  You got some good dick.

  TRENITY

  Well you got some good ass. I’m glad you’re holding me because I feel so weak.

  NOAH

  Question…where did you get this money from?

  TRENITY (getting up from the bed)

  Don’t worry about that. Let me handle this.

  Trenity walked into the bathroom and closed the door. He sat on the toilet and put his hands on his head.

  TRENITY (thinking to himself)

  How in the hell did I get trapped by a gold-digger?

  Trenity stood up and walked to the mirror. He stared at himself. Then there was a knock on the door.

  NOAH

  Are you okay in there? I don’t hear any water running.

  TRENITY

  Yes baby…I’m good.

  Noah turned the handle on the door but it was locked.

  NOAH

  Why do you have the door locked?

  TRENITY

  I am taking a “void”. Is that okay with you?

  NOAH

  You don’t have to be so nasty!

  36

  Madison stormed into my office and slammed some papers on my desk.

  MADISON

  What the hell is this?

  DWIGHT

  What are you talking about?

  MADISON

  You are selling everything. The house, the land, the company. What are you thinking? You can’t do this.

  DWIGHT

  Oh but I can. You see…a package was delivered to me the other night. It was grandfather’s will. It named me as executor.

  MADISON

  That has to be a fake.

  DWIGHT

  Oh but it’s not. I had it checked out. This is ironclad.

  MADISON

  I will file an injunction.

  DWIGHT

  Do what you need to do.

  MADISON

  You were always a fool. Stubborn as a mule. You are not even a Cove. I will contest Grandfather’s will on mental incompetence.

  DWIGHT

  I may not be a Cove but I am selling this.

  MADISON

  Does Grandmother know?

  As soon as Madison spoke those words my phone began to ring.

  DWIGHT (answering the phone)

  Yes.

  GRANDMOTHER ELLA

  Get your black ass to my house right now.

  Suddenly there was silence on the phone. I placed the phone back on the receiver.

  DWIGHT

  Well I take it that Grandmother knows. She just summons me to the house.

  MADISON

  I am going with you.

  Robin sat on the edge of her bed, her head resting in her folded hands. Her hair hung over her eyes. She pushed it back several time from her vision. The hair continued to fall.

  She walked over to the desk and pulled opened a drawer, grabbed the red envelope and pulled out its contents.

  She walked back to her bed and flopped down. The contract was twenty pages long. S
he flipped through all of them, till she stared at the last page. She pondered if she should sign it. By signing it she would continue to work for Ella and marry Dwight.

  She quickly thought about her options and what she had promised Dwight. “Fuck it!” Robin said. She walked back to her desk and grabbed a pen and signed it before talking herself out of it.

  Robin laid the contract on the desk. She grabbed her head because of a shooting pain that ran through it. She closed her eyes tight and felt faint.

  There was a knock at her door. She made her way to open it only to see Madison standing on the other side.

  ROBIN

  What are you doing here?

  MADISON

  I have something that I need you to do.

  ROBIN

  I am not working for you anymore. It’s enough that I am selling myself to your grandmother.

  MADISON

  Really? So you are going to marry my confused little brother.

  ROBIN

  I have to. I need the money.

  MADISON (walking into the kitchen)

  Great so that should make you want to work for me also.

  As Madison walked pass the television she ran her finger across the dust that had formed.

  MADISON

  You really need to clean your…(looking around) home.

  ROBIN

  What do you want?

  MADISON

  Okay listen…my little plan for you to run Brian off of the road didn’t work but things worked out even better. Brian left and went back to Seattle.

  ROBIN

  And…

  MADISON

  For half a million dollars I want you to kill my husband and I want you to stop Dwight from selling the oil company.

  ROBIN

  Have you lost your rabbit ass mind?

  MADISON

  What is my grandmother paying you to marry my brother?

  ROBIN

  That’s none of your business.

  MADISON

  Well whatever it is…after you complete this you will have more than enough money to start over.

  ROBIN

  I am not killing anyone.

  Madison walked closed to Robin. Madison flicked the collar on Robin’s shirt.

  MADISON

  Awww she has a conscious. Well that conscious is not allowed here.

  Madison’s faced turned to shock as she stepped back from Robin. She stared at Robin’s face as blood ran from her nose.

  ROBIN

  Why are you looking at me like that?

  MADISON

  You don’t feel the blood running out of your nose?
