Standing up, I decide action will be the best therapy. “Come on, let’s go take down that last piece of wall.”

Soon, I’ll be back in my janitor’s arms.

—How’s it going, Lu?—

—We are breaking through to basement now—

—Wow, brilliant—

Not that I’ve any problem with that, but it does lead to a one-track mind. And no matter how many orgasms he gives me, somehow it’s never enough. Like I’m missing something.

Or someone.
