Chapter 3
" I'll take it…"
Way to go, Nymphie. Way. To. Go"Great! Is all the information we have for you correct?"
"Yeah, but…"
"Now, I don't need to tell you of the importance of this matter. Secrecy is of the highest importance. If this goes wrong, Mrs. Lopez-Anthony will be very displeased."
Sheesh, this tart sounds like Lord Moldie-Britches.."Believe me, Mr. Lawrence" I said, trying to sound convincing " I will be the soul of discretion."
"Wonderful! I send you a packet containing the necessary equipment for you to get started…."
What am I, building a house? "Necessary equipment"
"Oh, My Goodness! Ms. Konks, I have Mrs. Lopez-Anthony on the other line? Say, would you like to speak with THE Mrs. Lopez-Anthony"
Oh for the Merlin's sake. This god-like status needs to be taken down about 10 octaves"Sure, I'd love to say 'hi' to Jenn."
"Please, refer to your employer by her married name, Ms. Konks" said Mr. Lawrence, in a snotty manner.
Suddenly the line clicked over.
"HEY CHICA! OH MY GOD, YOU ARE DOING ME SUCH A HUGE FAVOR. LUCKY YOU GET TO LOOK LIKE ME AND NOW YOU GET TO PLAY ME! ISN'T THAT EXCITING FOR YOU? no, Marc, put down that watch. No, mama has to buy herself a new poncho just like the one Martha Stewart…NO MARC! GET OUT OF THAT DRESSING ROOM! YOU'LL ENCOURAGE THE BOYS!…"
Oh my goodness. I wish I could tape this…"ANYWAYS, AHAHAHA! OH YOU KNOW MEN AROUND HOLLYWOOD! ALWAYS TRYING TO JUMP INTO THE DRESSING ROOM AND CHECK OUT THE OTHER GUYS! SO MUCH COMPETITION!"
Even from across the Atlantic, my gay-dar is beeping…"GETTING TO THE POINT, SWEETIE. YOU ARE GOING TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN! YOU'LL GET TO WEAR MY CLOTHES, DRIVE CARS THAT I WOULD DRIVE. IT'S GOING TO BE SO KEWL! giggles"
I'm going to be sick again.
"SO I'M GOING TO HAND YOU BACK TO MY MAN LARRY! HE'LL TAKE CARE OF ALL THE DETAILS. KISS, KISS SWEETIE AND DON'T DO ANYTHING THAT I WOULDN'T DO…."
Mounting a donkey in public?"BUH-BYEEEEE!"
Thankfully, the line clicked over and Mr. Lawrence stated, "We'll be in touch I have to go goodbye" and hung up the phone before I could even ask a question.
I suppose we'll just have to wait for the magical mystery package and see what happens. Meantime, I had to get down the 12 Grimmald Place for a meeting and some of Molly's food. I swear, sometimes I think I'm in the Order just so I can scarf some free nosh.
Perhaps with this new job, I'll be able to go out for a change.
I had no idea how much I would be going out.
