hated it.
    “I think we should meet. We can arrange a time
and place to meet. If you’re not happy with me then no hard feelings.” He
glanced down at his watch anticipating when she would want to see him.
    “When would be suitable to you?” she asked.
    “How about tonight?” He was never a patient man.
The sooner he saw her and got his obsession out of the way would suit him.
    “Are you sure you want to meet that soon?”
    “Yes. I look forward to meeting you, Noelle.”
    They scheduled a small but discreet hotel. She
would arrive around eight, and he would arrive half an hour later. They ended
the call. Isaac stared down at the phone and realised he hadn’t given her his
name.
    For the first time in a long time he was looking
forward his evening. He thought about the photo Brad had shown him and the
beauty of her eyes and the innocence in her face. She must have suffered much
in her short life to feel she had to resort to an escort agency.
    He waited for Brad to answer his phone.
    “Hello,” Brad said.
    “Noelle phoned. We’ve organised to meet
tonight.”
    “I hope she finds what she’s looking for. Don’t
be horrible to her, and let her down gently. I don’t know if this is a good
idea.”
    “Why wouldn’t it be a good idea?”
    “Lying to her. She deserves better than this.
Promise me you’ll take care of her.”
    “Of course I will.”
    “Okay. I’ve got to go, and I’ll talk to you
soon.”
    Brad ended the call, which left Isaac staring at
his mobile phone in confusion. This had been the other man’s idea. Not his.
Flipping his phone closed, he finished up his day of work. He intended to leave
early to prepare for his night. He had no idea what was going to happen. The
whole idea was a stupid one, and he couldn’t explain why he was going through
with it. Noelle sounded nice on the phone, and it was his own curiosity that
had made him agree.
    He left his office at five, drove home and
changed for the night ahead of him. The moment he walked into his apartment, he
went straight to the shower. He pulled all of his clothes off his body and
spent ten minutes under the warm water. After he got out, he dried the water
from his body and went to his wardrobe.
    He had no idea what escorts wore. Checking out
his clothes, he settled on a pair of black pants and a plain white shirt. He’d
take a jacket to keep the chill off.
    This would be the first time he met a woman
without the back up of his bank balance. He wondered what it would feel like to
be Isaac the man rather than the businessman with lots of wealth. Most of the
people who came into contact with him knew more about his state of affairs than
what drink he liked.
    For the remainder of his time, he sat down at
his office desk and worked some more. The work he did was a pitiful excuse for
a life.
    When the clock struck eight, he made his way out
of his apartment.

    Brad found himself at the side entrance to the
club. The man guarding gave him a frustrated look and talked into his cell
phone. Minutes later, Ben stood at the door looking furious.
    “What are you doing here?” he asked.
    “I only want to talk.”  
    Ben glared down at him and then turned and
nodded at the guard. Brad was patted down and made to follow Ben round the back
of the club through to his office. Semi-clad girls walked past him, but none of
them held any appeal. He walked into the office and waited for Ben to shut the
door.
    “Have a seat.” Ben took the seat behind the desk
and stared at him. “I’m pleased you’ve gotten help, Brad. I am. I know all
about Noelle and the help she’s given you.”
    “Thank you. I want to know what I did, Ben. I
can’t remember much about that time. I know you were in my life, and I believe
at one time we were lovers.”
    Ben laughed. “You’re not ready to deal with what
you did to me, boy. Getting involved with you was the biggest mistake of my
life. I appreciate that you’re struggling, but my advice would be for you
