Magician's Assistant - Friends & Lovers Part 8

"Think about it. Your age is somewhere around twenty-five, right?"

"Yes. That's to say that I will be by the end of next month."

"Okay. But, though you will be twenty-five at the end of next month, would you agree with me that the new you that I've turned you into doesn't look to be a day over twenty?"

"Yeah.I kind of thought that as a girl, I looked a little young for my age."

"But, you're not about to complain about that, are you?" John teased.

"Now, would that be something that you would really want me to complain about? I mean, I'm sure if I ask Magatrix here to make me look my age, she'd be happy to oblige."

"No! That's not what I'm saying at all, Nikki! I mean, you know I like you just the way you are!"

"Good!" Nikki giggled. "Because, so do I. Though I know this is going to sound like I'm full of myself, I have to admit that I really like this new, young, and ever so sexy looking me!"

"Are the two of you about finished with this little lover's game of yours?" Magatrix, playing the part of the stringent taskmaster, ruefully inquired. "Because, if you are, I'd kind of like to move this discussion of ours along, since I do have other things to attend to today.

"Oh! And, speaking of other things, there's something else I've been meaning to ask you, Nicole. Now, I have no idea what your plans are for the rest of the weekend, but I was kind of hoping that you might be able to see your way clear to lending me a hand this afternoon, and maybe even tomorrow afternoon as well.

"You see, I'm scheduled to perform a matinee this afternoon for the benefit of the local Boy Scouts Council. Then, tomorrow, I'll be doing yet another benefit performance. This time to help out a senior citizens center. And, I was kind of hoping that you might consent to serving as my assistant for either one, or the other, or both of the afternoon shows.
