My homework: City: Boston, MA Place: Logan Airport It was the week before Christmas and people were getting ready to vacate to somewhere sunny and warm. Florida and California were two hot spots. Anywhere south, really. Just to get out of the cold snowy north, is all these people wanted. The bodily traffic was chest to back, chest to back, in the lines that travelled through the security gates. People were taking off their shoes and belts and storing them in the open boxes on the conveyor belts, along with their carry-on luggage, and crossing through the metal-detectors and retrieving their items at the other end. When Benny stepped through the metal-detector he was detected. He knew what it was that had set the detector off. It was the lock and chain he wore around his neck, for which he didn’t have a key. The security detail knew this too, as he had forewarned them before crossing through, but still they insisted on patting him down. “You have the option of going somewhere private,” said the security guard. “I’m fine,” said Benny. “You sure?” the man double-checked. Benny glared at him in response. “Okay, as you wish. Now, I am going to pat you down with the palms of my hands and use the backs in the more sensitive areas. Okay?” Benny nodded. “Good.” The security guard started moving his hands along the hem of Benny’s waistband and Benny felt a ting of embarrassment. It sure was awkward having a grown man feel him up in public like this. He just didn’t want to go off somewhere private for fear of what the big man might do outside the view of the public. Benny knew what could happen. In fact, he’d been victimized by authority in the past, and what made this instance any different, Benny didn’t know. He tried to distract himself, but no good distractions arose. He tried, and he tried, but nothing presented itself. Until the big-breasted brunette came jiggling through the detector. Benny locked eyes on her, and smiled when the beep sounded and a beautiful unformed black woman asked her to step aside. He looked forward to seeing her get patted down, so much in fact that he hoped she wouldn’t ask to go somewhere private for the procedure. “I’m going to move to more sensitive areas now,” said the security guard. “Hold up your pants, please.” Benny confirmed his instruction with a firm glance and gripped his waistband while watching the uniformed back woman mouth the same instructions Benny had gotten to the tall and slim toned woman with free-flowing brown hair and a great big smile. She replied, and Benny saw the black woman weasel her fingers into the hem of the woman’s tight but flexible waistband, wearing a grin that gleamed with irritation. But Benny was smiling, and he found it funny, the whole lot of the search procedure being imposed on this hot woman. “Please stay here,” the man searching Benny said. Benny nodded. The black woman then did the same to the rounded collar of the woman’s shirt, which showed a decent amount of cleavage. She maneuvered her hands along the hem and over her breasts and then around her back. “You’re all set,” the security guard said. “You may retrieve your luggage now.” Benny went and picked up the box containing his belt, wallet, a pocket-full of change, his nostalgic dirt-stained Budweiser cap, and his cell phone. He brought his personal belongings over to a chair and set them down, then grabbed his shoes and his backpack and set those down beside the box. Before putting everything back in their proper places, he turned and watched the woman being searched again, but the process had ended and the woman bent down over the conveyor belt, showing a voluptuous rump, and retrieved a box, and her purse, and a pair of high-heels, and strolled, like a runway model, to a chair across the way from Benny. Her face showcased a look of disgust and outright annoyance, and Benny noticed a bright red light blink inside her left breast. That was odd. But he saw it again. And then … kaboom!!! A bright flash, a loud bang, and Benny was sent sprawling fifty feet backward.
