"Wake up Inspector.......Wake up Sir: a new arrival."
The young officer shook my shoulder and roused me from a sound sleep. I was awake now and swung my legs out to sit on the edge of the cot in my office. "OH NO: I was hoping for a quiet night. Who is he ?"
"OH NO, not "he": "she", and a pretty little morsel, sir. She is a graduate student from the University: works for one of the suspected professors we are after. There is nothing definite, but she has been brought in for questioning...........she is only 25 and as I said pretty."
This was beginning to sound better as I stretched and pulled on my trousers. "Tell me about her." I bent to put on my shoes.
"As I said she is pretty, not a model type, but like the wholesome girl you'd want your kid to marry and raise little buggers to sit on your lap, sir. A little bashful, you know, and scared shitless. First time she's ever imagined what might happen to her with her hands cuffed behind her. So scared sh looks like she'll burst into tears at any moment."
I got up and put on my uniform shirt, neck tie, and jacket.
"I put her on the chair in room 5, sir. "
I walked to the door. "Come with me Carlos; you might as well enjoy the fun too. It will be a long night for the bitch. We'll keep her entertained."
We both laughed. "Thank you sir. I will."
Is there anyone who would like to write the female role in this account of
the young grad student in the Secret Police Headquarters of a Third World dictatorship ?
