「ザキさん、こんなクソ寒い夜中になんの用ですか」 空気も凍るような寒さの夜、理由も告げずに俺を稽古場へ呼び出した小劇団の先輩、崎山に不満を隠さず声を掛けた。そこは、稽古場というより廃倉庫といったほうがしっくりくるボロ屋で、風が吹かないだけ外よりマシという状況だった。貧乏劇団ゆえ暖房器具など置いてすらない。 「おう、すまねぇな、森田。ちょっと見せたいもんがあってな」 「金貸してくれってのは無しですよ」 「そんなんじゃねぇよ。芝居の話だ、芝居の」 崎山はもう四十も半ば、芽の出ない役者だ。売れない理由は、今時となっては珍しい「飲む」「打つ」「買う」と三拍子を見事に揃えた素行の悪さが、業界中に知れ渡っているせいだった。どこぞの脚本家の奥さんに横恋慕して旦那に殺されかけただの、賭場で負けて裸で電車に乗って留置所に入れられ...
He slid his hotel room key through the slot and pushed the door open after the requisite click. It was late — later than he had planned to be out. But once he got roped into meeting and chatting it was easy to lose track of time. At least it was what he viewed as a successful evening — a power evening, made a great impression, made great contacts. Had som...
One of the fun things while living in the city is that you get to spy on your neighbours without necessarily going out of your way and be called a freak in the process. I live in an area where most immigrants establish themselves, which means I get to see people from all walks of life. Take the building in front of my balcony: three families, all from the s...
The apartment was still a mess. Boxes sat everywhere, most of them spilling their contents to the floor. Dishes lined the counters because the open cabinets still needed to be lined with paper. The pictures Lisa had meant to hang still sat propped up against the walls and the windows... Lisa stared out the window, a sigh breaking free from her mouth. She'd...
Over the years in submitting stories to Literotica and competing in their Survivor Contest I have noticed that, except for a few gifted writers, the Text with Audio and Poetry with Audio categories have been avoided. This was especially true in the Survivor Contest where I watched contestants sweat out the weekly lottery in the UK hoping to get the two covet...
Matt was just a regular guy, working in construction as a laborer, but sometimes drove heavy equipment when there was a need. Standing six foot two he weighed a hundred ninety pounds, giving him a slim look, but because of the manual labor he did, he had muscular arms and legs, a broad chest with wide shoulder, and a well-defined abdomen, accenting his slim...
Cleaning Janice's windows for free... Feeling her suck took away all the notions that I wouldn't get any satisfaction from a sixty year old. I would never have entered into the situation had it not been for my good nature - although I say it myself. I just felt sorry for Janice that's all - and even though she was old enough to be my mother I had to conten...
I'm back in this beautiful seaside town for a week to attend our annual meeting. This is always the night we entertain ourselves. There is no one else from my division and the new reps seem young. I head out to a beach bar to feel less alone. It's busy as I make my way to a side bar overlooking the ocean. I order a glass of Sauvignon Blanc, something familia...
Watching Susan undress and model in her underwear, William wished he was in her room with her. All so surreal with Susan standing in her bedroom and in plain sight of his office windows from her bedroom windows, William felt as if was watching a live peep show from his office. He watched her looking down at her assembled underwear stacked and organized on h...
TAXI TEASIN Still Saturday Morning I'm sure from the time Dollie slid into that taxi cab back seat, and the hours that followed, Clyde saw things memorable. As we left the campground I also remember telling Clyde not to hold back. I told him to tell us what you are thinking and feel free to make suggestions. I also told him no matter what happens stay in t...
