A Farm—DAY
When I pull up at the compound, several of the crew are there milling around. Iris had called me on the radio that she wanted to talk privately, and I hadn’t expecting anyone else to be around.
The Sailor tells me that she is inside the barn and won’t come out.
“She wants to see you,” Mary says, “A surprise she says.”
“I bet the surprise is sex.” Sailor Lou snickers.
I send the crew to away back to work then enter the barn expectantly. She is waiting, in red lingerie perched on the edge of a hay bale. She stands and embraces me as I enter. We immediately begin to kiss but she soon pulls away.
“No, I can’t.”
“No?”
“I can’t sleep with my supervisor, can I?”
I am angry with a dismissive wave, I say “Okay then, grab a shovel or something and get the fuck to work, bitch.”
She tries to apologize, but I repeat myself.
