Only Pleasure |
|
|
One afternoon while riding the Central Line I was accosted by an Italian businessman.
"Allo, what izza yorr name?"
I snootily turned away.
The handsome stranger in an expensive Burberry mac stepped off the tube with me at Chancery Lane. I was miffed and flattered by the attention.
After dinner Danny took me to the bedroom. A poky white-walled room with a single bed. He closed the curtains and stripped me. That night I lost my virginity. I had expected to scream, cry and beg, but I experienced only pleasure. I woke the next morning in his arms. I wanted to stay there all day . . .
Danny was a sophisticated older man, late thirties, tanned with white teeth, dreamy eyes and warm skin. (London, 1977)
