“Mr. Wayne, we don’t offer such services.”
“Please.”
“We have never done anything of the like. People come here, they meet here and they leave again to come next time, no more, no less. It is uncommon.”
“Like all the rest of this.”
“You may be right, but these are the rules.”
“Please.”

Sunday morning.
Knocking on the door. Cursing the asshole who drove me out of bed at 7am I stumbled to the door to open it. My driver was standing there in his suit. I furrowed my brow.
“Is it...”
He took an envelope out of his jacket and presented it to me, then glanced at my morning boner. For half a minute I looked at the blank envelope, still not awake enough to understand that I were to just take it.
When the driver lifted an eyebrow I finally got it. I took it and he turned around to leave with a smug smile.
Nothing written on it.
But it smelled of lavender so it wasn’t from the Bauta. The scent evoked strong feelings. It could only be one person. With growing excitement I opened it, sitting down on the sofa.
Dear J,
I am sorry about the last time; I shouldn’t have talked you into taking that stuff.
Talked you into that? Asshole, you barely said anything but just ‘trust me’, which I did, by the way.
I didn’t want it to end like that but I had no choice. One of the effects of it is that easygoing attitude and you just say what you got on your mind. I guess you noticed that as well.
Aye and how I did, Wayne.
I don’t know whether that was a good or bad thing
me either
but I have to accept it. Quite some time ago, per mere accident, I came across that name. It rang a bell and I made some investigations until I saw that face. My heart skipped a beat when I realized it was you. I couldn’t do anything else anymore for the rest of that day but think of your name.
These days, I can’t eat, I can’t sleep, I can barely work cause I got you on my mind all the time. It’s not supposed to be like that, but I can’t help it. Your name hasn’t put me off, it hasn’t chased me away; it has just served to bind me to you all the more.
If you can’t stand it I will never say it again; I will play by your rules.
I meant business when I asked you what I could do to show you that I am serious. Love isn’t for the faint-hearted and you can’t fall in love without risking something. It demands unearned trust at first until it is earned. I haven’t made many good experiences with love either, although the TV and news might present the contrary, but I have never gone beyond the surface of a favourite colour or a favourite song. As I said, it was just sex.
I would lose a large part of my life if you decided not to come anymore. To be honest, I have been struggling for years; at first trying to ignore it, then trying to deny it and finally trying to get it to work out. I think you never realized, but I am very serious about it.
Your name is a promise to me I ought to keep. You can be sure that I will never take your name in vain. I knew about it before our last meeting and I came to see you again. It is just another beautiful thing I discovered among your stubbornness, open-mindedness and passion.
He’s figured you out...you’re not so hard to read, after all, are you...
I know how hard it is to show your real self. Don’t be disheartened.
I will always treat it with respect.
- Bruce
These honest words rendered me speechless. I stared at the paper, teeth clenched, overwhelmed by an emotional amalgam of panic, vulnerability and need.
Jack felt addressed, Jack was burning to get up and visit him and Jack was ready to trust him.
Just I wasn’t.
