I wanted to share something with you:
I call this "Hello Stranger"
It was a late night. Clouds were as dark as faded black jeans. The wind beared a stench of moist concrete. Along the road lengthy customized Cadillac crept as the driver noticed some blinking hazard lights. Beautiful melodies oozed out of the windows as the vehicle halted. The right rear window rolled down half way and a hand signal for the woman in distress. As she approached the car she hesistated and began to turn around but roar thunder claps and intense flashes of lightening instructed her explain her situation.
"It looks like rain...what a shame" said the Male passenger. "Thank you for stopping" said the woman "The 5 cars just honked and kept going and.." she continued. "I'm not really into sad stories Ms..." the Male Passenger interrupted. "unless you givin' a Happy endin" he winked "Allow me to introduce myself so you won't be talkin to a stranger I'm Venni and you look like you're in need of a rescue. Would you mind if I offered some assistance?" he asked. "Actually I'd love some let me get my things." She ran to her car to get the keys and things and hopped in the back with Venni and the three other passengers. Winds howled and rain began to river dance on the Moon roof. "Guess I was right on time must be fate... Would you like to use my phone to call someone while we wait or are you ready for an adventure...to the gas station?" The woman checked her cell phone and the battery was dead. "Yes, please." she answered. In the front of the car were three young females late teens to early twenties. The middle passenger handed a cellphone to the woman. She dialed the number to the tow-truck company she got a busy signal. "By the way, I'm Amber" she said. "Pull over and turn the music down." Venni instructed. "Don't be alarmed I just need to get something out of my trunk." As the car stopped the right side passenger said "I'll get it for you." Then got out in the rain and brought a bag containing a box back into the front seat and dried it off and handed it to 'Venni'. "Alright turn the noise up a lil' and drive" he said while looking through the box. Amber still trying to get through this time it was ringing longly.
"Here you are 'Amber'!" said Venni with delight. "I'm sorry" said Amber. "Oh not you this fragrence" as he placed an inscense burner in the rear window. "See I keep a box of inscents with the names of ladies and if I happen to come across one by any of the names I stop and light it up to see how it smells and does it match her appearance if so I'll grant a realistic wish if not she gettin' the fuck out... your looks out weigh the scent so you get two." he explained. "Thank you, that sounds interesting but I just want my car fixed. I have two flats on the right side and the tow truck company must be closed due to the storm." she replied. "Oh yeah? Hmm... In that phone look up a name titled 'T&W' for Tires & Wheels" he instructed. She did and got an answering service. "No luck there either" she said. "Relax" he said and the driver began to count as she pulled next to the pump. "5...4...3...2" then the phone began to vibrate and the 3 females got out the car and ran into the gas station. "Yo! You gone see a white 1998 Acura Legend a few miles down from that Gas station where they go to get that VooDoo Rain shit they always drinkin'... you know where I'm talkin bout.....2 flats go handle that for me and I got you...Alright" Venni hung up the phone. "Thank you so much but I don't think I can afford that just yet" she said. "How about this then" he began "I was on my way to the middle of nowhere just ridin' around in stormy weather...You were in the same climate but had a little trouble and I offered you help and two wishes. Correct?" he explained as the ladies entered the front seat. "Yes but..." she answered "Well only one of them has been granted now let me ask you this... Did Aladdin have to pay for that Magic Carpet you're dry feet is on?" he continued "No but I'm confused" she said and the ladies laughed. "Please don't ask him to explain" they chuckled and Amber laughed with them. "Ok... easy way out... Give me you're number and tag along until I get the call that you can have your car rollin'" Venni stated with a calm but serious demeanor. "I guess that will work but who are you and where would we be going?" she said with a bit of concern. "I'm Carmen and I drive..." "I'm Karla (mid.passenger seat), I usually make the calls and answer the phone" "I'm Mona and (right.passenger) like to..uhh... ride" the ladies giggled again. "Allow me to reintroduce myself...I'm Kane the Conquerer...Kevlar the Great... Master & Commander of my Destiny and Fate... This ride is my Coach the girls are like Cheerleaders the way they applaud and stick wit me but since you don't know me I'll be answering to Venni" he said poetically. "Uhh..." Amber replied "Yeah... I like to rhyme from time to time..randomly actually but what is it that you do? If you don't mind.. you know what it doesn't really matter... so what is it that you would like to do in life, Amber?" said Venni. "I kind of work at this lingerie shop but would like to just..well I'm not sure yet.. I don't mind the work I do but my manager is an perverted asshole" she answered. "Look I know you got big titties and shit but don't cuss in this car nomore...just jokin... but do you mean like that or... what did u mean by kind of?" he said. "That was not funny" said Amber with a smile on her face. "but yeah I kind of want to work somewhere else just not around him. You know?" she continued. "Oh I see... jealous of the man-o-cans (mannequin's) cans... I get it" he replied. "And I guess you're an out of work comedian huh? What line of work are you in? Mr. Venni..if that's you're real name." said Amber with frowned eyes but grinning while the ladies snickered. "Do you really want to know?" he replied. "I asked." she said. "Pull over and turn the music down.....Now...Do you really want to know...what I do?" Venni said again in that calm serious demeanor causing silence in the car. "Hmm... Not so sure now...where are we going again?" she said changing the subject. "We're here Sir. Would you like us to remain in the car?" asked Carmen. "You know all this lightening and thunder and rain and wind... maybe you should just stand in the middle of the flooded streets while I go into that big ol dry house and mingle with my cousin...Nah instead follow me... but I ain't trying to get wet so lemme call him."
Venni began to dial the number and Amber rested her head on the glass in relief and started to think of her safety and realized her phone battery was still dead so she wouldn't be able to call for help if something happened and silently prayed for a good outcome. In a few moments a friend of Venni and the girls came to the car with a big umbrella/poncho combination... like a beach umbrella with shower curtains or something. When approaching the door the phone rang.
"You have reached the cellphone of the person you wish to speak to." Karla answering the phone. "Well I'm sure you can take care of it. ----You're one of the best. -----I'm sure Bruce Lee didn't let a little drizzle stop his progress. Muhammad Ali could dance between the raindrops in his prime. They even make physical exercise equipped jacuzzi's combined. This kind of climate isn't gonna slow down a person with your skill and talent for the craft is it?" Karla continued "Muchas Gracias, Hasta luego" she said ending the call. "Papi that was..." "Good Job takin' care of that for me... See why I let her hold the phone? Oh yeah...Cuzzo... This is Amber, do you have a battery for her phone or a charger or extra she can have or somethin somewhere?" Venni said. "Hold on... What kind of phone you got sweetheart?" said Venni's Cousin "A piece of crap Nokia. This one here." Amber said handing him the phone. "Amber don't be afraid just relax I'll make sure you are well taken care of while in my presence." said Venni and the girls nodded there heads in agreement. "Are you thirsty or hungry or anything?" he continued. "There's the rest room in case you need to freshen up" pointing at the door beneath the staircase a few feet from the Living room. "Oh thanks again" she said walking into the restroom washing her hands and face looking in the mirror she said to herself 'These people are very hospitable but don't let your guard down... although it might be too late... is it? Let me just get through this night.' Venni's cousin returned with her phone and a charger "I can't find one like this but I can get you an upgrade.. I do have a charger for it though." said Venni's cousin. "Good lookin' out Vance Yo! What you want for it?" asked Venni. "Nothin' man just stay you because you always come through with a new adventure and stories...It's a gift" said Vance. "Yeah you could call it that" Venni said. "I meant the charger funny man." he replied as they both laughed while Amber walked back in the room. "Hey sorry for not introducing you... this is my cousin Vance... Vance this is my new friend and rescued victim/hostage...Amber. No really I just met her and helped her out of a bad situation." he explained. "You know you can be foolish" said Vance. Then Karla walked in "Excuse me Sir but the phone is for you." "Yeah Yo!....That's real good, dry and bag 'em for me and I got chu when I see you for real... Thanks." ending the phone conversation. "Hey Amber, where were you on you're way to when We pulled up?" he asked. "Oh I can't believe it slipped my mind" the ladies interrupted "It happens dealing with him" they said. "I was going home though but it was a movie I wanted to watch that I haven't seen in a long time." Amber continued. Everybody laughed! "What? What's so funny?" she asked. "Damn I thought you were gonna say you were cooking or had to get to your kids or something... boyfriend.. sick pops or make some kind of late night rendezvous.." said Venni. "If that's the case where were you coming from?" asked Vance. "Nah let's leave that in the past." Venni replied.
"It's ok, I had to close with my manager. Again.. he watched me do all the work as usual I swear I'm qutting one day." she answered. "Well prosperity and abundance to you... you know you do have one more wish. And your car is ready..plus two spare tires." Venni said. "Would you like for me to escort her to her vehicle Sir?" asked Carmen. "I got shotgun!" yelled Mona. "Are you ready to go home yet? It's all stormy and wet Amber...windy" asked Venni. "I know but I don't want to wear out my welcome and maybe I can get an encore presentation of my movie." Amber said as they all laughed. "So be it... Mona ride with Carmen and explain what it is that I do to Amber and play some soft dramatic music while doing so. Excuse yourselves." The ladies went to start the car up and Venni walked with Amber under the umbrella. "To be honest I do find you attractive and just meeting you tonight you were very calm and sophisticated... Classy and witty. I like that type of woman. So I'll be calling you as soon as you to get to your car to make sure you're safe... from there it's up to you.. everything that happened to you tonight I hope was entertaining..intriguing maybe even mesmerizing... thank you for not being hostile and if I can help..I'd like to see you excel in life. Call me when you are ready to make a wish."
