I am Baaack! Part 5

Joan hung up the phone. One of what she liked to think of as "Dr. Adkin's Rules for Having It All.And Keeping It" was, "Always expect the unexpected", but this had thrown even her for somewhat of a loop. Rose was still alive! Not only alive, but here in Chicago and wanting to meet with her! To give her subconscious a few moments to sort out what she'd just discovered, she got up, went to the coffee maker and started to pick up the coffee pot and her cup. 'Nuh uh,' she thought. 'This calls for something stronger!'

Putting the pot back, she bent down. The derriere she thus presented to anyone who would have the nerve to open her door unannounced (very few would, and they would regret it) was unenhanced by any support undergarments, and was still firm and shapely despite her forty plus years. As she straightened up, one could tell the same about her waist and breasts. She wore very little makeup, and her face remained virtually unlined; there was no gray in the lustrous black hair that fell in waves to her shoulder blades.

In her hand was a bottle of Jack Daniels, and she poured at least a double shot into her coffee cup. She downed it in one gulp as if it were water, and then poured herself another which she carried back to her desk. As she passed the full length mirror on the back of her office door, she gave herself an over-all look see and whistled. 'Not bad for an old broad,' she thought. 'Must be clean living.' People would have noticed an evil twist to her laugh. She settled back into her chair, kicked her heels off, and put her feet up on the desk. She was now in what she thought of as her "thinking position". As she let the conclusions reached by her subconscious surface, she slowly sipped the Jack Daniels.

After packing her off with Adain Ben Hariesh, Joan had never expected to be contacted by Rose. She had, however, thought she might be contacted by Adain. She had noticed a certain hint of inner strength in Ross the first time she had met him the time Louise and Ed had brought him in for a checkup when the hormones first kicked in.
