Fey drives towards the warehouse that she and Dave were using as their work area. Dave was working on a project and her visit to Dr. Banner’s office was weird. She had never had to put her legs in stirrups before, nor have someone poke around down below. She also didn’t like having her new vaginal opening, stretched by a metal speculum.
Dr. Banner did a pap smear and other tests every woman should have by her age. The good doctor also did a breast exam as well. She gave Fey a complete physical.
Fey spots Dave’s SUV already at the warehouse. She parks next to it and walks inside. She could already smell the stripper Dave used to strip the finish or paint off a piece of furniture he was working on.
Fey walks over to the area he was using to do the work on his furniture jobs. She stands back and just watches Dave as he works. She didn’t like interrupting him while he worked.
Dave finishes what he is doing and removes his respirator mask. He looks at Fey “How was your doctor's appointment?”
“She said I was going to live. How much longer before it's fully striped?” Fey noticed some areas that still needed more work.
“I should have everything done by this evening. Then I can go ahead and start repairing some of the damages to it.” Dave spotted a few things that looked like someone had repaired once before but was starting to come undone.
“Cool, you know we have a gig in California in about a week.”
“I know. You also know that Nike wants us to come over on Friday evening so she can start teaching us.” Dave wonders what Nike is going to teach them.
“I know. We have a full schedule of things we have to do. I’ve been wondering why us. Why not someone else?”
“You know Nike never really explained that to us. Maybe, we can ask her again this Friday and hopefully get a clear answer to the question.”
Dave knew Fey had her doubts about what Nike told them.
“Oh, what did you think about those pictures I sent you of the new waitresses?” Fey almost forgot about that.
“I think we shouldn’t poach from the diner. They have been nice to us in the past.” Dave knew they had given them discounts on their meal.
“Yeah, you’re right. We could always do some auditions to find one.” Fey knew that would take time, and then depending on how well-trained the person was. They would have to bring the person up to speed on their tricks.
“I might know someone that would be a good assistant. She recently started doing tricks and is willing to work for someone.” Dave was thinking about Sammy, his best friend’s niece.
“I’m game. Has she come to the theater for an interview and demonstration?”
“When?”
“How about on Thursday around one?” Fey didn’t have anything planned for Thursday.
“Thursday is good for me as well. I’ll let Sammy know. Oh, one more thing. She’s like you used to be.” Dave figured he should be upfront with Fey about that.
“That’s fine. You know me, I judge a person on their merit, not on their gender or beliefs.”
“I know. Well, I better get back to work.” Dave puts his respirator mask back on.
Fey walks away and over to some of the gear they were going to use in their act. She checks them out before leaving and picking up some dinner for her and Jessica.
