The End of Rectal Thermometer

27

Dr. Mike Wells stood as he talks on the telephone to his credit card company and invites Enid to sit in his office chair. The representative on the line is quick to ask him if he is calling to make a payment and he says no. He then goes on to explain he has a friend who wants to speak on his behalf and hands the phone to Enid. Enid smiles warmly at Mike as she begins speaking to the representative.

Enid grew up craving love from anyone who would love her back. Her father must have left her and mother a half a dozen times. While she loves and still keeps in contact with both of them, their relationship is a major reason she believes she is incapable of ever having a successful relationship with a man.

In highschool, Enid was always extra sweet to every boy in school who was bullied. Although, she was seen as somewhat of an outcast goth girl, most boys did respect that she was a very beautiful girl, even when the more popular girls looked down on her. There was a very young man who was in so much pain, unbeknownst to everyone in the school he was having thoughts of hurting himself and fantasizing about school shootings.

Enid had so much love to give and while she didn't fully know the extent the young man's despair, she was willing to put her heart and soul on the line to heal him hoping just a fraction of the love she gave to him would reflect back on her. He was legitimately shocked when a young, sweet Enid asked him out to the senior prom, half expecting it to be a cruel joke, but he decided to accept the invitation anyway.

Enid picked him up in her 1990 pink Volkswagen beetle, that she still drives to this day because that skinny, awkward boy didn't have a car of his own. The boy wore a gray outdated sweater vest and Enid wore a cute pink dress and was the envy of most of the boys at that dance. Enid could sense that some of the other boys had ill intentions toward her date, so she gave him two beautiful dances and rested her hands on his shoulders and head on his chest. After the second dance she took her boy by the hand and led him out to her car handing him the keys.

Enid has always been shy and rarely looks a man in his eyes without him initiating the conversation, but that night was an exception. Enid asked that young man to drive her anywhere he wanted, preferably a special place to him that he wouldn't dare show another girl. He hesitated a moment, then started the car and slowly pulled away.

Enid rolled her window down and was enchanted by the delightful breeze and how it felt on her face and strapless gown. She was in love with the feeling of losing control. All the jocks and popular boys couldn't be trusted with her heart. Tonight she was entrusting it to her brokenhearted date. The car stopped off a dirt road 50 feet from a lake.

Crickets chirped as Enid followed her date to the edge of the lake, "This used to be a fat camp ten years ago, they closed it the last year I went. My parents didn't know how to help me. I sucked at sports, making friends and talking to girls. They thought if they sent me away with other kids who struggled I could thrive there somehow. I sucked here too, I finally realized it was me. I spent 11 of the 12 weeks alone in my cabin, barely ate a thing. Counselors wouldn't call my parents to complain about my lack of participation because the scale was their biggest success story. An 8 year old boy losing 50 lbs is a big deal. I love visiting here every chance I get, the grounds are unkept and the buildings are already starting to decay I can feel it in my bones."

Enid placed her hand on his cheek and kissed him as passionately as her heart allowed her. She promised him a new world and a new vision on the very site they stood. He looked down at her and asked how she could possibly change anything for him. Enid asked him to close his eyes and tell her what he dreamt of all those days and nights alone in the cabin all those years ago as she held both of his hands in hers, "Freedom. Being an adult and having moments in my life I could go where I want and do what I want to do. Be with a beautiful girl who wants to be with me too. Find things in life to be happy about."

Enid gently releases her date's hands and after a moment of silence tells him to open his eyes and tell her what he sees. As he opened up his eyes to his first vision of a live nude woman his jaw dropping told Enid everything she needed to know. She softly guided his hands all over her body to teach him how to be a sweet attentive lover and the two lost their virginity in the moonlight by that lake. Enid let her young lover drive himself home and passionately kissed him goodbye as he walked into his house and out of her life forever. She never heard from him again, he dropped out of school the following week and got his GED instead and disappeared.

Enid always knew that outcome was a strong possibility. Men leave after free sex, and they do it, alot, no malice or vindictiveness, it's just in their nature. Enid planned for months for the opportunity to give a boy his beautiful dream, she sacrificed her virginity and body, even putting herself on birth control that gave her side effects she dreaded. Enid needed to heal someone's soul so badly she didn't care if they had anything to give back.

Enid giggles as she can't hide her immense amusement as her boss attempts to rub his sore bottom but realizes even a light rub is also painful. Enid gets the credit card company to agree to a one time payment of $50,000 to settle and close the account. This will mean a big hit to the doctor's credit score, but his debt will be taken off the books. As Enid hangs up the phone , Mike thanks his saviour again and again, to which Enid shrugs off as just something she was happy to do for "a friend".
