Karen is waiting alone

Karen,{if ****=false}, in her bikini{else} topless,{endif} was watching TV when Matt arrived.

"Took you long enough."

"Yeah, I sort of got held up by Ophelia."

She gave him a smile{if ****=false}and blinked{else} and reached for her crotch{endif}. "Have something to tell me?"

"It was a date. No sex."

"You got a date with a thirty-year-old woman. I think that's pretty hot."

"She is hot. And maybe, just maybe, she'll think about being on the channel."

"Holy shit! That would be great. You know what would be great. Her and Ms. Chadra going for who has the biggest tits in the world. I'd love to put those puppies on a scale and see for sure. Talk about unit circles. They sure make me interested in how to calculate the volume of a hemisphere."

"Are you interested in girls?"

"You need me to be, don't you? I mean, wasn't your plan that I'd be making out with Amy and shit?"

"Yeah, it was. Until... have you talked to Amy since the... incident?"

"You mean since you basically rejected her mom after she humiliated herself by asking her mom to help train you? Since then?"

"Yeah, I guess that's what I mean. I ran into her at the bus stop. She... wasn't happy."

"You did notice that I'm here instead of riding this afternoon, right. So, yes I've seen her and yes I've talked to her but I didn't get any talk back."

"Fuck." He'd been so intent on his own pleasure and so anxious to bone his mom that he hadn't thought things through. If he'd just pressed his mom a little harder before Eliza had come over, everything would have been fine. If he'd just followed through with Eliza once she'd been there, it would have been fine. But as it was, he was fucked.

"So, call her," Karen said.

"Huh. But she told me she never wanted to hear from me again."

"What do you expect her to say? The girl has some pride, you know."

"I wouldn't even know how to start."

"I suggest starting by groveling. If you had plans of turning her into your love **** or something, you might want to put those on hold because you pissed pretty righteously."
