  “Yes for crying out loud.” Daniel barked out. Donald was quite persistent when it came to Daniel’s love life. Daniel was older than Donald by two years, but Donald acted like he was the oldest. “I’m too old for the lectures; I don’t even know why I told you.” Donald ran his hands through his spiky hair.

  “Stop acting childish and I won’t lecture you.” Donald responded. Daniel glared at Donald and called the waitress over.

  “Can we get our bill now?” the tone of his voice changed from angry to gentlemanly. The waitress blushed and smiled at him.

  “Of course, I’ll be right back.” The waitress walked away in a hurry.

  “What about her?” Donald asked pointing his head at the waitress. “She’s cute and she obviously wants to talk to you.” Daniel shook his head.

  “It’s just not that easy for me Donald.” Daniel said. It wasn’t like Daniel was a bad looking guy. He was six-foot-two and very lean. He and Donald was Brazilian and Daniel had dark hair and grey eyes. Donald was almost identical to his older brother, the only difference being that he had sandy brown hair with dark brown eyes. Daniel was constantly hit on by beautiful woman, but he didn’t have enough time to date them. The mail order bride way of meeting a woman seemed like a good idea to him. She’d be living with him in his four bedroom house so he didn’t have to rush and get off of work in order to pick her up for a date. Daniel was perfectly willing to buy someone’s companionship since it’ll take majority of the “hard work” out of dating.

  “Whatever man,” Donald said and watched as the waitress walked back over to them with the bill in her hand.

  “I got this.” Daniel said and picked up the bill. He placed three twenty dollar bills on the table and got up.

  “The food wasn’t that expensive was it?” Donald asked alarmed at the amount of money Daniel put down.

  “No I just gave her a forty dollar tip.” Donald sighed. Daniel was the wealthier of the two men, but Donald had a good income coming in as well. He was the manager of a small sales company and he thought he did a pretty good job when it came to an income. However, he couldn’t see himself paying sixty dollars for a twenty dollar meal.

  “So have you gotten many applications?” Donald asked as they walked out of Josie’s diner. Daniel nodded.

  “I interviewed some women, but they weren’t too interesting.” Daniel stopped walking and turned to look at Donald. “You should look into finding a mail order bride too; maybe you won’t be as promiscuous as you are now.” Donald laughed.

  “Please, I don’t need that because I am not as lonely as you.” Donald started walking again.

  “Let’s make it a little competition then,” Donald stopped walking and turned and looked at Daniel. He always was the competitive type and he enjoyed beating others at their own games.

  “I’m listening,” he said and folded his arms.

  “Since you think this is just some joke, I bet you two grand that if you order a mail order bride, you will find the relationship to be a similar experience as having a normal girlfriend.”

  “Deal,” Donald said and shook Daniel’s hand. Two thousand dollars was a lot of money and he could definitely use it. Plus, Donald thought there would be no chance that he’d look at a woman that he purchased as being a real girlfriend. He actually felt bad for his brother, losing two grand wasn’t some pocket change. “I look forward to taking your money.” Daniel smiled and let go of his brother’s hand.

  “I’m serious now.” Daniel said as the two of them walked towards Daniel’s 2009 Ford Focus.

  “So am I,” Donald said grinning. “When am I not serious when it comes to making money?” Daniel shook his head. His younger brother has always been greedy when it came to money, but Daniel did a lot of research on mail order brides. He was sure that his brother would fall for one just like he was sure that he would as well. “So how does this work?” Daniel pulled out his phone and brought up an app that specialized in making ads for mail order brides online.

  “Well for now you can help me interview some of my women,” Daniel said as he navigated through the website while Donald looked on. “It’s pretty simple. You make an account, tell them what type of woman interests you, and they pretty much write your requirements in a more professional manner.”

  “You’re paying the woman $1,000 a week plus room and board?” Donald asked in shock when he read through Daniel’s ad. Daniel closed the app and put his phone back in his pocket.

  “You weren’t supposed to read all of that.” Daniel said and turned his attention to pulling out of the parking lot.

  “You better sleep with whoever this woman is as soon as she moves into your house for that type of money.” Donald couldn’t believe that Daniel would pay that high for a woman. Donald would be lying if he said that the website didn’t intrigue him. He wasn’t a huge fan of meeting people online, but he could see the potential of building a relationship from it. Besides unlike Daniel, he was definitely planning on sleeping with any woman that he picked. He didn’t care about the romance side of it, he liked playing the field and taking woman as they came. He’d just treat the woman that he picked as one of his many conquests. “So when’s your next interview?”

  “I’m still going through the women who applied. I read their profiles and look at their picture first before I make a decision to pick a woman.” Daniel said as he eased his car on the expressway.

  “Let me check them out,” Donald said and held out his hand.

  “Why?” Daniel retorted. His brother was nosy and he honestly didn’t want him snooping through his phone.

  “I’m trying to help you out,” Donald said irritated. “If I’m going to help you in your interviews let me help pick out the women too. You’re pretty lame so I know what type of woman to choose for you.” Daniel held up his middle finger and Donald grinned. He thought about Donald’s request and thought that it would only be fair to let Donald help him choose the women as well.

  “Alright, but don’t go looking in my phone.”

  “Grow up I’m not a kid.” Donald said. Daniel grabbed his phone out of his pocket and gave it to Donald.

  “The app is the one with the pink shoe logo,” Donald chuckled.

  “Only you would have something like this on your phone as a man,” Daniel glared at Donald briefly from the corner of his eye. He wasn’t going to let him get to him so he just decided to concentrate on the road and to find a woman who he feels could satisfy him quickly.

  Chapter Three

  “I thought you were going to give me to the end of the month to come up with the remainder of the rent?” Alicia asked once her landlord handed her another eviction notice.

  “I’m sorry Alicia, you’ve been a very good tenant, but either you have the rent or you don’t.” Justin Stone never intended to give Alicia any time since she kept rejecting his invitation to go out for drinks. Alicia knew that he was interested in her, but Justin was a shark who preyed on dependent women. “If you don’t have the money now, you have until Friday to get it to me.” Alicia bit her lip trying her hardest to not cry. She didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of seeing her in pain.

  “I guess I’ll start packing then,” she said defeated. She loved her apartment and hated the man who took it away from her. Whatever slim chance Justin had in regards to him taking her out, he had none now.

  “I’m sorry that it has to be this way.” Justin turned on his heels and went towards the front door. Before he opened it he looked over his shoulder. “If you don’t want to move, maybe we could work something out?” Alicia was disgusted at the methods Justin went through in order to get her. She said nothing as she walked towards the door and held it open.

  “No thanks “Alicia said. Justin gave her an angry look, but she didn’t care. She slammed the door on him as soon as his feet had crossed the threshold. “Bastard!” she called out and fell to the floor. If she didn’t find a place to stay at soon, she’d be homeless. She’d lived in Bearcreek fo
r a few years, but she was the only one from her family who stayed there. Her closest family member, her Auntie Joyce, was 1,000 miles away from her and she honestly didn’t want to move that far away. She had some hope that she might get her job back. Alicia got up from the floor, went back into her room, and picked up her laptop. The mail order bride ad was sounding more desirable as the minutes passed her by.

  “This is disgusting though,” Alicia said as her mouse cursor lingered on the apply button. “Am I really this desperate?” Alicia was willing to do a lot of things for work, but this was something that really would show how far she fell off of the totem pole. She scrolled up the ad again and looked at the picture of the man looking for a bride. “He is attractive.” Alicia said to herself. Alicia looked through the man’s profile and saw that he was relatively successful and one thousand dollars a week was better than the zero dollars a week that she was getting. Plus she’d have some place to stay.

  “Well that’s if he chooses me,” Alicia said again. She thought that she matched his requirements. She was intelligent, attractive, between the ages that he specified. Here’s hoping for the best, Alicia thought and hit apply. She filled out the application and sent a picture of herself with the rest of her contact information. The website looked legit enough and she did some research on it before she sent her personal information. She completed the application and the last thing that she needed to do was to wait for a response. Hopefully she got called in for an interview at one of the other places first and started working for them soon, but it was nice to have this as a back-up. If all that failed, she had enough money to stay at a hotel for a few weeks.

  “I just need this unemployment to come through quickly.” The unemployment office was currently fighting with the school that she worked for to get money from them. She honestly didn’t know why the school was fighting so hard, she just wanted what was due to her and they knew that the school laid her off without good cause. She was a great teacher, the parents and the students loved her. Alicia got up and went into the kitchen and made herself something to eat. Today was going to be another busy day of walking around and applying for jobs.

  ****

  The day proved to be eventful for Alicia, many of the places that she visited was only accepting applications, but she did have the opportunity to interview on the spot for a bowling alley a few blocks around the corner from her house. The interview went well and it seemed promising. The pay wasn’t that good though and it was for part-time work instead of full-time.

  “Definitely not good enough to get another place.” She said as she entered her apartment. She thought that if she could get two part-time jobs she would be able to save up for a smaller apartment, but nine times out of ten the apartment might be located in a not too good area of town. Alicia sighed and walked into her bedroom to check her email. She was surprised to see an email from the guy who had the ad for the mail order bride. She opened up the email quickly:

  Hello there. Thank you for applying to my “job” I guess you would say. I must say that you seem very interesting and you’re quite beautiful as well. I would like to meet up with you tomorrow afternoon for lunch (my treat of course). I know the nature of my request is odd and that you might find it a little nerve wrecking to meet up with a stranger (I know I would), so if you’d like to meet me at a diner that I think you would enjoy, I’d be happy to reimburse you for gas. Please let me know what time works for you and I’ll give you more details to the place if you’re interested.

  Regards,

  Daniel.

  Alicia’s eyes widened at the email and a blush went across her cheeks. She was actually surprised that she had gotten a reply so quickly. She was also surprised by the anxiety that went through her body then. She had this strong need to email him back quickly:

  Thank you so much for responding to my application and for the compliment (you’re very attractive as well). I’d love to meet you tomorrow afternoon for lunch. Is 1 o’clock good for you? Do you need me to bring anything to the meeting? You also do not need to reimburse me for the mileage. I look forward to your response and I look forward to meeting you tomorrow.

  Sincerely,

  Alicia.

  “I can’t believe he actually responded to me.” Alicia said and shook her head. She honestly didn’t know why she was getting so interested in the whole mail order bride thing. Did that mean that they’d actually get married or does the name just imply that they’d be considered to be a married couple? The more she thought about the whole idea, the less absurd she thought it’ll be. If she got picked for this, she’d pretty much be getting paid for doing things that wives normally did. Provide companionship, probably keep the house clean, but would he be expecting sex as well? If he was paying her to do all of these services for him, would that make her a prostitute? Alicia had a lot to research before she met with Daniel the next day.

  “Well it’s either try to do this or start living in a hotel room until I either run out of money, or find a job.” She needed to do abnormal things in order for her to live a somewhat normal life even at the expense of her dignity. “At least try it out and see how it is.” Alicia said to herself. She looked towards her closet and opened the door. She wanted to look as good as possible so that she had a better chance of winning over Daniel’s interest. See looked through her closet of clothes until she found a peach summer dress with a low neckline and a high split that would expose a lot of her thigh. She picked out some matching shoes and held the dress towards her body and looked in the mirror.

  “This’ll do.” Alicia said and hung the dress over her chair. She hadn’t been on a date for a few months so she’ll think of this lunch as a date instead of a business transaction. Alicia took in a deep breath. “I can do this,” she said and went into the bathroom to take a shower.

  Chapter Four

  “She’s hot,” Donald said once Daniel handed his phone over to him so that he could show Donald a picture of Alicia. “I don’t think I’ve ever been with an African American woman before,” Donald said raking his mind trying to visually see all of the women that he’s slept with in the past. Daniel grabbed his phone away from his brother.

  “And you won’t be sleeping with this one.” Donald laughed at his brother.

  “I’m pretty sure she’s not my type if you like her.” Donald leaned back in Daniel’s home office chair. He’s been spending a lot of time with his brother recently, their father had passed away a few weeks ago and Daniel was taking it the hardest. Donald came over frequently to try to cheer his brother up. Hopefully their father’s death wasn’t the reason behind him wanting to find a woman. “She doesn’t strike me as an Alicia,” Daniel shrugged into his black suit jacket and grabbed his wallet off of the table.

  “Whatever, are you staying in the house?” Daniel asked looking over his shoulder at his brother. Donald turned around in the seat like he was a child.

  “Yeah, I want to see your face when you realize she’s crazy.” Donald laughed. Daniel ignored him.

  “Have you made your ad yet?” Donald shook his head.

  “I want to see how you handle this before I do it. I can wait a little longer for my money.” Daniel sighed. His brother was so sure that he’d win the money. It was not going to go down that way though.

  “See you later then,” Daniel said and walked out of the door.

  ****

  “Wow,” Daniel said once Alicia walked into the diner and looked around for him. Daniel couldn’t help but to gawk at her. Gorgeous, he thought and he got up and walked towards her. “Alicia?” he said and the chocolate goddess looked his way.

  “Yes, Daniel right? It’s nice to meet you.” Her voice shook when she said that and Daniel took the hand that she extended to him.

  “The pleasure is mine.” He said still looking at her. She was even more beautiful standing in front of him. “Our table is this way,” he held her lower back and walked her towards the table. He couldn’t help but to look down to the area j
ust below his hand. He was ashamed that he let his mind take a negative turn, but he knew right then and there that she was the one that he wanted. Sex wasn’t his initial motivation for creating the ad for a mail order bride, but he absolutely had to get a taste of her. He mentally kicked himself, some of his brother rubbed off on him.

  “The place is nice, thank you for inviting me here.” Daniel smiled at her allowing his eyes to drift down to her red and plump lips. He’d kill to suck on them.

  “I’m glad you like it, please order whatever you like.” Alicia smiled sweetly and looked down towards her menu.

  Daniel and Alicia had spoken for a long time and he learned a lot of things about her. She was a laid off elementary school teacher who had a love of children and people in general. She was kind, funny, and intelligent. Daniel didn’t have to read through the long list of applications, he found who he was interested in.

  “Alicia,” Daniel said and grabbed a hold of her hand. She blushed, but she didn’t pull her hand away. “I think we have a connection here and if you’re interested in me as well, I’d love to show you my place and where you’ll be living at. If you take my offer of course” Alicia was shocked by what Daniel had said. She couldn’t believe that he picked her after one afternoon together. This was perfect for her because she needed to be out of her apartment.

  “Of course, I think we hit it off well.” Daniel grinned and held her hand close to his mouth and kissed it. He was happy that she accepted.

  “Should we leave now? I want you to become acquainted with my place a little bit before I move you in.” Everything was happening so quickly and it kind of scared her.

  “Yeah let’s go.” Daniel paid the bill and was out of the door.

  ****

  Daniel and Alicia drove the thirty minute commute keeping up a friendly conversation. When they finally pulled up in front of Daniel’s house she was surprised at how big it was.
