Brian had finally pulled it off. He had convinced his boss to send him to California for an Internet security conference. He probably would benefit from attending, but that wasn’t his primary motivation for attending.
No, he wanted to go to California, because he desperately wanted to meet Soforia. He had discovered on the Internet a couple of years ago and had been purchasing her tapes and having phone sessions ever since. However, over the months the desire to meet her in person was building and building to the point of becoming irresistible.
That night he called Soforia with the good news. They had already scheduled a phone session for that evening. Brian told her he wanted to make an appointment for a session in her office. Soforia was delighted at the prospecting of meeting Brian in person, but suggested that perhaps she would be more interested in something other than an office visit. Brain was a little hurt and stunned, but before he could react, Soforia said, "Relax, and go into deep hypnosis for me."
An hour later Brian awoke feeling wonderfully refreshed and very excited about going to meet Soforia, but with no memory of the session. Soforia told him to think about where he would want to take her when he came to the West Coast. And he tried. He was up several hours trying to find the perfect place to take Soforia, but nothing clicked.
While reading the sports section the next day, Brian was suddenly struck with the idea of taking Soforia to a baseball game. He wasn’t sure why. He thought that once she might have made an off hand comment about being a fan of the Angels. But right now he KNEW he had to take her to a baseball game. Brain went online and found a ticket reseller and got front row seats at Edison Field. The price was high, but nothing but the best for Soforia.
At work Brian was pleased to see Soforia online. He IM’ed her and told her I had bought her Angels tickets.
She replied. "I am very pleased you have accepted my suggestion, and I look forward to attending the game with you. I will meet you at 6:00pm at gate 4."
Brian’s heart was pounding. It was actually going to happen. He was actually going to meet her. He typed back, "How will I know you?"
"Don’t worry," she wrote. "I’ll know you."
The trip and the conference were uninteresting. All the time Brian could only think about his rendezvous with Soforia. He left the conference early giving himself plenty of time to get to the park. At 5:15pm he was standing in front of Gate 4.
Brian wandered around the stadium. He wished by sheer force of will he could make time pass by more quickly. He walked around the times. It was almost 6pm. He started pacing back and forth. Disturbing thoughts entered his mind.
"What if she doesn’t show?"
"What if she doesn’t recognize me?"
"What if I let her down?"
As he started to pace back and forth again, a woman stepped in front of him and he suddenly found himself staring into a pair of deep blue eyes. All he saw were those eyes. Deep. Blue. Mysterious. Powerful.
"I am glad we finally meet, Brian," said the voice he had become enthralled by so many months ago.
Brian couldn’t speak. He was frozen.
Soforia moved back two steps.
"She’s beautiful." Brian thought. Still unable to speak. "Everything I had imagined and more.
Soforia began to giggle, and Brian still couldn’t move.
"C’mon, wake up," She laughed and snapped her fingers.
Brian was finally able to respond. "H-How did you know it was me?" he asked.
"I told you to wear this red tie," she said as she reached forward and slid the material between her fingers. "And you always do what I tell you to do, right Brian."
"Yes, Soforia."
"Good," she laughed again. "Now, let’s go in and sit down."
We entered the stadium and I started down the steps towards the field. Soforia gently tugged me on the arm and said, "Come this way." I couldn’t object. She led me by the arm to the Right Field Pavilion. She chose a couple of seats at random, and we sat down.
"I had tickets right by the Tigers dugout," I managed to blurt out.
"That’s very thoughtful of you, Brian. But I think it will be better if we are out here where we won’t be disturbed, don’t you agree?" She flashed me a big smile.
Of course, he agreed with everything she said. At that point all Brian wanted to do was stare into those eyes and listen to that voice.
"Yes, I agree," he replied.
"Very good. I do like it when you agree with me. You do like to agree with me, don’t you?"
"Yes."
"Marvelous," she grinned. "Then, I’m sure you’ll agree to look at this." She pulled a necklace from her purse, and at the end was large crystal pendant.
His eyes locked onto the pendant.
"I see you like my pendant."
Brian didn’t answer. He just stared at the pendant.
"It’s interesting how the pendant reflects the light, as it sways back and forth…back and forth…. captivating isn’t it?…focusing all your attention on my pendant and my voice…..focusing all my attention on my pendant and my voice….."
Brian couldn’t answer. He stared at the crystal, listened to Soforia’s voice. But he could neither move nor speak.
"Very Good, Brian. Just keep watching the pendant and listening to my voice…watching and listening…I have captured your attention…I have captured your attention…listening only to my voice now…listening only to my voice now….feels so good to listen to my voice…feels so good to listen to my voice…feels so good to obey my voice….feels so good to obey my voice…
Soforia paused and looked at Brian. His eyes had glazed over. He was barely breathing.
"Perfect," thought Soforia. She continued her induction.
"Now, Brian, I am going to take you deeper and deeper into hypnosis. I am going to count from 10 to 0 and when I reach 0, you eyes will close and you will go into deep hypnosis for me, won’t you?"
Brian remained silent
She laughed. "I’ll take that as a ‘yes’".
"Ten...focusing only on my voice..."
"Nine..feeling so peaceful..so relaxed.."
"Eight..the more you obey the better you feel."
"Seven..taking you deeper and deeper.."
"Six.falling under my spell.."
"Five..eyelids so heavy .."
"Four..still deeper and deeper.."
"Three.the more you obey the better you feel."
"Two.my words are captivating and capturing you."
"One.go even deeper for me."
"Zero.and close your eyes. You are now in deep hypnosis."
She paused again, and admired her handiwork. Brain sat there motionless, his eyes closed, oblivious to anything except Soforia’s voice.
"Now then, Brian, my pet. In this state of deep hypnosis that I have placed you in, you will find your mind open to my suggestions, accepting my instructions and obeying my commands, do you understand?"
"Yes."
Soforia felt her heart beat a little faster. Even now after hypnotizing literally hundreds, perhaps thousands, of men, it never failed to excite her when she placed someone new in her power.
"Good. Your mind is open to my suggestions. And the more you obey the better you feel. The more you obey the better you feel. Repeat after me. ‘The more you obey the better you feel."
"The more I obey the better I feel," Brain said with no emotion.Soforia smiled again.
"Very Good. Now listen closely. I have your complete attention. My words are becoming your thoughts. You are madly in love with me. You have always been in love with me and you always will be in love with me. Your passion for me knows no bounds. It overrides all reason. You adore me, worship me, are so deeply in love with me. Now when I count to 3….you will awake from your trance, but still be very deeply in love with me and unable to resist my commands….1….2…3…awake…"Brain’s eyes fluttered open. He looked into Soforia’s eyes. His was pounding. He fell to his knees. No easy feat in the pavilion seating area. He looked up. His head was spinning.
"Soforia, I love you," Brian said softly.
"That’s very nice, Brian."
"No really, I do. I’ve never felt this way before about anybody or anything. You are just so simply divine."
"Divine. Like a Goddess?" she asked with a knowing smile.
"Yes, that’s it. You’re a Goddess. And all I want to do is serve you."
"Well, isn’t that wonderful," Soforia said smugly. "Why don’t you go and get your goddess a gift to show your appreciation for her."
"Yes, Soforia." Brian climbed to my feet. And raced back towards the concession stands. What could he get Soforia? What would be worthy of her? Jewels? Expensive perfume? He was at a ballpark, for crying out loud.At the souvenir stand he asked the kid what was the most expensive item he had. It was an Aaron Sele replica jersey $150. he bought it. And a Tim Salmon autographed bat for $85. And an autographed team ball for $50. And a snow globe of Edison Field for $19. Does it even snow in Orange County?
He rushed back with to Soforia carrying her gifts. He saw a food vendor walking away. Soforia had a hot dog and a soda in hand.
"Soforia, I would have gotten that for you. You didn’t need to pay."
She laughed. "Oh don’t worry, these didn’t cost me a thing. He was more than happy to let me have them. I also have a feeling that tomorrow he’s going to develop a sudden urge to call me and enlist my services," she said triumphantly. "Now, let’s see what you have for me?"
Brian handed her the souvenirs.
"Wow," she said. "These are really nice, considering what you had to work with."
"Thank you, Soforia."
"Well, thank you, my pet. I do so like it when you give me gifts and try to please me. And I’m sure you will continue to do so, because you enjoy it as well."
"Y-yes, I do like pleasing you and giving you gifts.
"Perfect! Now relax and go into deep hypnosis for me."
Brian’s eyes slammed shut. The next thing he knew he heard Soforia saying, ".4 and 5..wide awake. How do you feel?"
"Amazing, Fantastic, Great!" he said enthusiastically.
"Excellent! Now that you are refreshed, let’s watch the game."Brian looked at his watch. It was 7:05. He then looked at the field and saw the players taking their positions.
"Don’t worry," said Soforia. "I made sure you stood for the National Anthem."
At first when she said that it made him nervous, then excited, then he wished she would do something like that again.
The Tigers leadoff batter, Jose Macias stepped into the box. He ripped the first pitch into center field for a single.
Suddenly, Brian found myself kneeling before Soforia saying, "I belong to Soforia. I belong to Soforia."
The next hitter, Damion Easley, struck out and he found myself back in my seat.Dmitri Young then doubled down the left field line. I once again was kneeling before Soforia. This time I was kissing the toe of her boot, and saying, "You are my goddess and I am just your slave."
Soforia laughed some more. "I hope someone hits a grand slam. I bet you can’t wait to see what you’ll do then."
It was just now dawning on Brain that she had programmed him to respond to actions in the game. He had no memory of this. All he knew was that after each at bat he found himself amusing Soforia in some new manner.
In the 3rd inning, Brain felt himself transformed into a teenager girl when Jose Lima struck out the side. In the 7th inning there was a throwing error and suddenly he was frozen like a statue. He never found out what Soforia had in store for him should someone have hit a grand slam.
Brian wished the game could have gone into extra innings, could have gone one forever. But alas, the Angels scored 2 in the ninth to win.
As Soforia got up to leave, he was once again was on my knees. He pleaded to stay with her. He offered to spend the rest of my life as her footstool, anything so I could be near her.
"That’s nice," she smiled. "But unnecessary. I’ll be in your mind, your thoughts, your heart, forever." And she slowly walked away.
Brian tried to catch his breath. The past few hours had produced the most erotic experiences of his life. He wondered if he had been dreaming. He was snapped back to reality by Soforia’s voice. She had stopped to say a few last words.
"Oh, Brian. I’m also a big Kings and Ducks fan, too." And with that Brian already started planning his next trip back to Orange County to see Soforia.
