... he returned. Slipping on my long, fluffy white bathrobe, I returned to the bedroom. Philly was standing in the middle of the room. He smiled and said, “Breakfast is ready.” Taking my hand in his, he led me out to the kitchen. He had set the table, poured two glasses of orange juice, and sliced a croissant. A steaming cup of tea awaited me. He had made us breakfast. Something no man had ever done before, he acted like a perfect gentleman, helping me into my chair and offering me cream and sugar for my tea. I was amazed; he wanted to wait on me, and he tried to make me feel good. The closest I'd ever come to this feeling before was a quick slap on the ass, and I'll call you sometime, babe. We made idle chit-chat over breakfast, talking about work and how we were going to handle the gossip that was sure to flow in the mall once our newfound romance got out. I suggested that perhaps we could keep our affair discreet. Philly's reply was, "Are you kidding Connie? I'll be proud to let everyone in the mall know about us." He used the word proud to express his feelings about being my man. That warm feeling I got earlier was quickly turning into a glow. After breakfast, Philly cleaned up, dressed, and relaxed as I showered and got ready for work.

Driving toward the mall that morning, he asked, "Connie, can I see you tonight?" My instant reply was, "I'm counting on it." His smile widened, knowing we would be making passionate love again tonight. As he slowed his car beside the middle entrance to the mall, I placed my hand on his thigh and leaned over close to him. "Thank you for last night, thank you for this morning, and for making me feel so special,” I said. "My pleasure," he instantly replied. He quickly jumped out and rounded the car to open the door and help me out of his car. Taking me in his arms, he hugged and softly kissed me. He whispered, “You look incredible. I’ll stop by ET before I start at three today. I kissed him on the cheek and said, “I’ll be looking forward to that.” I turned and walked toward the entrance to the mall, I swung my hips as I walked, knowing he was watching me. I wanted him to understand that these hips are his and his alone. As I entered ET, my manager, Marsha, was standing behind the counter. She looked up and instantly said, "So Connie, how was your date with Philly last night?" I hadn't ...
