He seems to enjoy taking advantage of the fact I work from home on Friday. That is when he comes up with those assignments I hate to love....

Last Thursday, right before we said good night, he told me that if I went online later and saw any e-mail from him, I wasn’t to open it until Friday morning. He said it with that little chuckle in his voice, the one the tells me he’s enjoying himself immensely. Of course, I had to go online immediately after we parted.

One. Two. Three. Four. Five. Five! Five e-mails?!? I stared at the screen, my stomach twisting itself into knots. Five separate e-mails. No way to know what they said, unless I disobeyed. The little voices in my head, arguing back and forth.

“He’ll never know if you look.”
“He told me not to.”
“But he won’t know.”
“He’ll ask. You know it.”
“So you just don’t answer.”
“That is an answer. You know it and so does he.”

* sigh * Curiosity. Tension. Anxiety. What was in those e-mails? I could almost hear him laughing at my frustration. Believe me, getting to sleep that night was NOT an easy thing....

The first one was very innocuous. An easy good morning, a couple of comments and instructions to open the next at 10am. It was enough to lull me into a bit of complacency. I wasn’t completely comfortable about the remaining e-mails, but they could all be in the same vein, right? Maybe he was just playing a game, trying to get me nervous about reading them. I started working and was able to put them to the back of my mind.

Until 10am, that is. I’m not going to share the details of the remaining e-mails. I will tell you, though, that he can be diabolical at times! When I finally saw him that evening, well, let’s just say he had me exactly where he wanted me. (In more ways than one!)

I hate these assignments. I do! I really, really do! Somehow, though, I end up loving them. Especially when I know completing them to his satisfaction brings me so much pleasure!
