A parting observed and a gift extended.
Posted: 19 Dec 2021 07:42
It was a gray day. The fog stood sentinel slightly above the ground. Trees faded into nothingness as they stretched toward an invisible sun. The covid situation lay over world, much like the fog. My wife was laid off. My site had closed indefinitely. My son was going to school, but they were always holding a threat of going back online based on local transmission conditions worsened. Public assistance plans were overwhelmed, and the joke of how fun a check for 3 months of unemployment for both my wife and I was turning into a desperate situation. A night of doomscrolling had not given me the sort of night's sleep to let me seize the day. Out of sympathy for my dragging state in the morning, my wife volunteered to take my son to school, and planned on going to the gym afterward.
I sat by the open window to drink some coffee, looking out at a deserted street that seemed to drink in the mood of the fog. No one moved. No car doors broke the silence. Houses surrounded mine, and I could get no sign at all that the town stirred for the morning. Then I heard it. Cutting clear through the fog as noon sun. My neighbor in the throes of ecstasy. I had just overheard this couple as a complete accident a week earlier, as was amaze at how powerful her passion was. I loved the tone of vocal fry that took over her voice. I had been unbelievably turned on.
The couple had the luck to move to a new city right as the social world shut down. My family and I had all gotten friendly with them, since listing them as one of our favorites when we watched the bidding war for the house across the street unfurl from our porch. (32 people had come to visit the house in a single weekend! How do you not sit and watch over a bottle or two of wine?!) It turns out the winners of the bidding war were also winners of some strong genetics coupled with lifestyle choice to make them both as beautiful as you could hope for. The man is a very dark skinned black man, with huge arms, around 7 per cent body fat and a brilliant bright smile. Oh, and he's studying to be a doctor, in case surfing instructor is a job that is too unappealing to people. I'm generally straight, but... damn. The woman is strong-will, intelligent and has an aura of intensity. (Through just how much has become much more clear to me!) She has something of a stereo-typical yoga body; small, short and slender, but clearly strong as well. She has lovely curves to her hips, and gardening with her on her steep hill of a front yard (it probably is a rise of 20 feet from the street to their house) makes it hard to not be completely distracted. She's got an olive skin tone and strong eyebrows that speak to some Greek or Italian ancestry.
So there I was, drinking coffee on a foggy autumn morning, hearing this beautiful pair making the most beautiful sounds. Naturally, I did the only thing I could, and move my caffeination mission out to my porch to hear even better. The previous time I had overheard them, it was just her strong and loud vocalizations as she came at the end. I was hearing a little more of the full session this time. The slap of flesh was audible even across the street, and as they rose to a pitched peak, I couldn't help but smile and feel like this gloomy day had been transformed. I was entranced, buoyed and excited. I considered immediately going inside and stroking the erection that was on the edge of painful. But something made me think that waiting was the correct plan this time; so I channeled my new-found energy into something productive until my wife got home. I dug out the roots of an old bush we were replacing with more garden space. While I was working, I saw the couple across the street come out, the man carrying a suitcase. They shared a long kiss, and a talked for several moments before he loaded the car, waved goodbye and left. I guess the man was off for a trip of some sort. She had her own coffee on her porch while I worked, and I had just dumped the root ball into the long-term compost when my wife's car pulled up. As we went inside together, I noted my neighbor still on her porch. (to be continued...)
