Amelias revenge
After the flea bath Amelia got a massage, manicure, and a full bodywax. This so-called bodywax was popular with felinids as it made their hair look like gold. After her treatment, Amelia felt much better. As she was leaving, she gave Shelia and Naomy her address and told them to stop by when they had the time. Then she left, so she could meet with both Arrow and Freddy.
"Wow! Now that's what I call a change!" Freddy said, impressed.
"But still, Freddy, you didn't ask me before making that appointment, so just you wait! You shall pay for this," she said to him.
Then a few days had passed, and idea came to her; the best punishment she could think of for dear Freddy. She told Delbert that she had something to do, and ran downtown. The horsameina lady was still sitting there.
"Are Naomy and Shelia free to have a little talk?" she asked.
"Just wait there for a second, and I'll go see," the woman said and went to see the girls.
"Hi, Amelia!" the girls said warmly when they saw her. "What can we do for you?"
"Might I ask a little favor of you two?" Amelia said. "Listen, my cousin made my appointment without asking me. Now, don't take me wrong, I feel much better than I have ever have in my life, but I am rather tired of his making appointments without asking me first. So, I think that it's about time for dear Freddy to have a taste his own medicine, if you know what I mean."
"Well, we don't normally treat men, but in your case, I think it will be all right," Naomy said.
"Great! How much?" she asked.
"Nothing at all, Amelia. It's just our pleasure," Shelia said. Then she grinned, and asked, "So…is the Freddy cute?"
"And another thing," Amelia said, ignoring Sheila's question and subsequent giggling.
"Yes, What is it, Amelia?"
"Do you think I might be allowed to help you?"
"Sure! Of course you can," they said.
The next day Amelia took her cousin back to the parlor.
"But…how?" he said when the horsameina told him that he had a appointment. Then he looked over archly at Amelia and said, "You did this, didn't you?"
"Just to give you a little bit of your own medicine, Freddy," she said. "Perhaps now you'll have some idea on how it is to know that someone's making you do something you really don't want to do."
Then he was pushed, protesting, through the door and the torture was begun. After they had came out from the parlor, Freddy's face was decidedly pale. "Next time, you ask before you make me an appointment. Am I clear?" Amelia said.
