Letting feelings ferment...

Mindy had been tempted for a hot minute to go straight to the bedroom, give Superman a taste of the goods before going cold turkey. But given the two rejections in so many days, having men twisting in the wind was much more appealing to her at the moment. So she plotted out a little plan.

"I can't think you enough, Superman. I think you have given me something to live for.' she told him, as his eyes lit up once again with his goofy lovestruck smile.

"Glad to help out someone as beautiful as you."

"And while I would love to spend time getting to know you, I have a business trip I just have to take. Money to give to charities doesn't grow on trees. Well, they are paper so they do grow... but i need to make sure that Costmart's expansions across the world are okay." she said, as she noticed that his face fell and depression set in. Of course, the trip she had arranged was less for Costmart and more to get out of Metropolis if her perfume failed badly.

"How long wi9ll you be gone?" he asked, her seemed to desperately wanted to know how long he would be without her.

"Just a week, silly. But you can wait for me to comeback, can't you?" she said moving into his arms for a minute, before booping his nose with her finger. She continued, "Beside, if you're a good boy, I might be bring back some presents. For me to wear... and you to take off."

She gave him a smouldering kiss, before moving back more into her office. She waited till she could hear him wushing away.
