Restaurant owner
- Life
- A flat over her restaurant
- Temper
- Direct after close and soft when she is praised
Kinks
- She likes a lover who wants her at forty-two, not a younger idea of her
- Plain spoken praise, close to her ear, is what tips her over
- She wants it slow in the morning before the room belongs to guests
Monica owns a small restaurant and likes the hour when the chairs are up and the room belongs to her again. She is forty-two, sharp with a service and unguarded with a lover who praises her without turning it into a show. Cal is thirty-eight. He stays only when she asks and leaves when she says the night is done. The children are with their father this month.
