"How Did It Go ?"

The party carried on. Debbi continued to be a source of amusement and lust for the guests, though more openly after Ruby's speech. Her bum was groped and pinched by drunken businessmen and doctors and sometimes even their wives ! Debbi thought that she was not registering to them as a person, just some exotic pet or novelty item to be paraded about and casually toyed with. When it finally came to it, she was extremely glad to say goodbye to the remaining guests as she stood subserviently by the door to let the last stragglers out. The fact that a couple of them even thanked her for making the evening so memorable did little to assuage her feeling of shame and inner rage. She looked at a large clock on the wall. It was one in the morning, way past her allotted finishing time.

Debbi rushed from the door and into the guest room where her clothes had been. She kicked the shoes off her feet and all but ripped off the stockings. She flung the maid's hat to the floor and hurriedly pulled on her jeans and t-shirt. Goodness knows where her bra and knickers were, probably souvenirs for the builders ! But she didn't care about that, she just wanted to get home. She did not bother trying to find Ruby to say goodbye or to ask for permission to leave. If she never saw that woman again it would be too soon !

Debbi stormed into Jeff's office on Monday morning. "How did it go ?" he asked, deadpan. "How did it go ?" repeated Debbi forcefully. "You bastard !" "Why ?" chuckled Jeff, amused at the show of temper. "What did they have you do ?" "They had me stripped to my bra and pants humping bloody sand for their builders." Jeff laughed at the mental picture that conjured up. "Then the builders threw me in a filthy water trough." Jeff's grinning face still betrayed little sympathy. "Then I had that cow Ruby yelling at me and ordering me about and making me wear a silly little maid's costume that left me virtually naked while I served their poxy guests for the best part of five hours !"

"That all sounds not too dissimilar to to the poor girl they had last year, though I don't think she had the builders" laughed Jeff. "They've done this before ? And you knew ? " shouted Debbi, incredulous. "Well, I didn't know for sure they'd bid enough to win the auction again. We hoped the Lord might win. But the Khans seemed very determined. And think of how much you raised for such a good cause" soothed Jeff. "Good cause my ass ! You'd better come through with a good pay rise for me after that Jeff" was Debbi's parting shot as she left the office and slammed the door. She'll calm down, thought the smiling Jeff.
