Silencing

My name is Dirk Van der Bos, and friends simplify it by calling me Dirk. I am an ex-US Army Ranger with ten years in before my knee gave out a final time and I left the service of my country. I'm in my late 20's and in the prime of life. My wife is an absolute knockout of a woman with the mind of an angel and a body made for sin. We've only been married 6 months and her religious background means she is quite inhibited, but loves me and wants to please me. Her name is Amanda and she aspires to be a dentist, but my construction business is making so much money that she reluctantly finishes the semester to take it over. My real desire is to own a security company and I now have a few real pros working for me and more jobs than we can handle. As Tom Petty said, the future was wide open.Day 1 I sat up in bed and my wife rolled over and sat up beside me. "e;What was that?"e; she exclaimed. Her blonde hair covers her face and my eyes are drawn to her breasts. I never get tired of looking at them. She could be in Playboy on them alone. "e;We must have blown a transformer or something. Powers out. I swear, this is happening too often."e; I yawn and she lays back down and snuggles up against me. I have no idea what time it is because the room is fairly dark and the digital clock's face is darkened. I am in the act of laying back down when there is a horrifying sound of electricity and both of us jump up and out of the bed."e;Honey?"e; my beautiful bride says and I open the door into the living room and through the windows in front, there is an eerie glow outside. I grab my shorts and T and half hopping get them on. She follows me to the front door, staying so close her toes keep bumping into my heels. She has hold of my t-shirt as I open the door and the bitter smell of ozone is very strong. It is very dark outside and the only light appears to be coming from the many flare stacks a few miles away, in the Exxon-Mobil complex. It has the sky lit up in orange and red.All down the street my neighbors are in their front yard in various states of undress. As far as I can see there is no power and I find that odd, since the front of the subdivision always stays lit. It's on a different power grid, as it was built about 10 years before our own house. "e;Dirk, honey, I'm scared."e;"e;Why baby? It's just an outage. How many does this make now, 3?"e; We've been married less than 6 months and I bought this house after I was discharged from the Army 4 years ago. We never had a bit of trouble with electricity until 2 months ago. I wrap my arms around my tiny wife and lift her amazing breasts. She pushes my hands down and exclaims that the neighbors can see us. "e;The neighbors can't see us, hell, I can barely see us,"e; I say and tweak her nipples through her pajama top. Amanda is a very small woman of 4 feet 10 inches tall, but sports a wonderful pair of 34-C augmented breasts that her mom paid for when she graduated from Rice University a year ago.As we turn to go inside, I feel her hand on me and that's all the signal I need to know she will do it. Amanda is 24 and working to become a Dentist. She has another year to go. Our world is about to turn upside down.We have no idea what is in store for us.
