Inappropriate
“Nothing could be more inappropriate than this so-called shortcut of yours by the brothels and naughty bars, James,” my youngest aunt said, “but I’ll forgive you – for the cheap thrill of it.”
“What’s your order, aunty?”
“Take me home now, and if we’re lucky nobody’s there, so you can ravish me.”
I burst out laughing and stepped on the accelerator.

Written around inappropriate, order and shortcut from 3WW. This is one of the least autobiographical things I’ve ever written. I could imagine it set in the 1950s, in Naples perhaps and in black-and-white, with the aunt being played by someone like Deborah Kerr, and James by …? Any ideas?
Uh, who played the boy in Tea & Sympathy?
Very good
Ha! Great!
Thanks for visiting and commenting, Pia and Mary June.
The boy in Tea & Sympathy was played by <a href=”http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0449734/”John Kerr. Excellent choice, Pia.
The young John Kerr it is.
Wow. I’m glad to hear it was not autobiographical, lol.
Great!
