Agent Finds a Warrior

"Like the glue holding you together was removed for a moment." I inter-joined softly.

"Yes!" Then Maria asked, "You've been disciplined?"

"I'm far from perfect Maria and I've had longer than most to make mistakes. I'm living proof of God's enduring mercy."

I gave her a little more room, as she started to mess around with her hair.

"Out of curiosity what is it that you're having a hard time with in concern to God? Can I help in some way?"

Her eyes flashed to mine, "I uhh…… I don't know if I'm allowed to tell you, because it concerns you." She managed to stutter out looking very uncomfortable.

I held up my hands, "If you don't feel released from God to share that is perfectly fine. Any allegiance to me is subservient to any direction you have from God."

She looked relieved at my words and I couldn't but help wonder what God had tasked her with in concern to me.

"Now how do you feel?" I asked.

"Like a fool."

"Well by that very statement you prove you are not a fool, by the way of simply stating that a true fool wouldn't think to wonder whether or not she was a fool or not. See the logic?"

A hint of a smile lightened up Maria's face briefly, as I attempted to coax her into a better frame of mind.

"Now that we've determined that you are most definitely not a fool is there something I can do for you?"

Her hands twisted together, "I'm hungry again."

I glanced toward the sink feeling sorry for her. It was my opinion that throwing up never gets any better no matter how long you live.

"But of course you are! How does pizza sound?"

"Wonderful!"

I made my way to the door and she took several steps after me before stopping. I saw it all take place then on her face. She was imagining how terrible her exit from the hotel dining room must've looked, only to then run into the men's restroom.

Both of those occurrences paled in comparison to then walking out of the men's room with a man after a considerable period of duration inside. She was helpless to put words to it, but the imploring look she gave me said it all.

I reached up and tore the cover off the fire alarm and then I jammed it on. Alarms erupted throughout the hotel, as Maria's mouth fell open in shock.

Grinning at her I said, "This is a first for me! Come on, I bet you've always wanted to do that?"

Her mouth moved wordlessly and I held up a finger, "Shhh. You might lie and get spanked again."
