Posted by Allan, Anne & Susan.
This story was once the opening to a much larger story designed as the climax to the Resort Stories (Vol Seven). Over time, as the story grew in size, it became apparent that it would need to be split into a number of sections. The final Online version has divided the story into four parts, which will be published over the next five weeks.
Three Authors?
Three authors? What a deadly combination that is!
I (Allan) started writing parts of the second section, now called “The Worlds Greatest Lover,” meanwhile Anne was working on this opening “Setting Steve Up” and Susan started on a smaller version of the trial scene. Since these stories were so closely related we were soon in each other’s stories so now it’s very hard to remember which of us wrote each piece. Of course, our rework process added to the confusion as the new writers have had their impact on the stories as well. So maybe I should just say All Of Us wrote it.
The Main Theme.
The two girls, Amita and Hansini, were becoming tired of Steve always teasing them and bragging about how good he was. One day they were listening to him teasing Lizamoa and decided something had to be done about it. So they arranged for him to be with them for an afternoon and evening. Originally their intention was to give him a hard-time for a while before settling down to some fun but things got out of hand in the morning when other girls got involved.
The men decided it might be fun to get back at Amita and Hansini, so they organize a mock court where the girls are put on trial. Of course from the start, it is obvious that the whole thing is a set-up and the girls have no chance of winning their case.
Finally, they all meet in the evening to witness the punishment being delivered. Again what was intended and what actually happens were two different things.
The Opening.
So this week we have the opening scene, set beside the pool, where Amita and Hansini set Steve up and tricked him into spending a night with them. It is obvious Steve thinks he was on to a good thing. His friends can see the girls have other motives in mind. They try to warn him, but Steve pushes on blindly, ignoring their warnings.
Next week we will get to see how that night goes and what they do to poor Steve. Yes, I did say ‘poor Steve’ because in some ways I do feel sorry for him. They give him a rough time.
We hope you have fun reading these stories. We certainly did writing them.
