Tip Here

Right after I got the lab results, I had a call from the hospital telling me that one of my patients had arrived. I made arrangements for my associates to cover my appointments and left for the hospital.

It was a relatively easy delivery for the new mother, but it was almost 6:30 before I got home. Everyone else was finishing eating. Zack fixed me a plate of the food that he had made. I thought it was odd that the four children stayed in their seats even though they had finished their meals.

Billy looked at me, "Uncle Tip, you promise you won't let Daddy just hire someone who won't like us?"

Ty looked at me as I answered, "Billy, your Daddy, Zack and I will make sure that only the most wonderful person comes to take care of you. You children will have a vote on who your Daddy hires."

I hadn't finished my meal before the doorbell rang. Zack went to answer it and brought an older lady into the dining room. Zack offered her a seat.

She deferred and looked around and asked, "Is this a house of queer black people or what?"

Ty stood and said, "No ma'am, this is not a house of queers and it is obvious that your services are not needed here. I will not have my children subjected to such language. I will show you out."

I had finished my dinner and Zack took care of the dishes and we were sitting in the living room when the doorbell sounded. Ty went to welcome the arrival.

An African American lady in her late fifties came in and started, "Just so you know, I will work only from 8 to 5 and I will not cook your evening meal. I will take care of the children during my scheduled times. I definitely will not work weekends or evenings."

Billy looked at me, "Uncle Tip, is she going to be our nanny? She seems more like a wicked witch."

I stood up, "Ma'am, thank you for coming, but I don't think you are the person we are looking for. For your information, I am a medical doctor and Mr. Jefferson is a lawyer. You have no right to come in here and tell us what you will or will not do. Everyone, let's vote and to show this lady how we feel about her."

Seven thumbs were turned down. The lady was a little startled, "Well, I have never been so offended."

Bobby, bless his heart, said, "Don't worry ma'am, you will get over it, when you realize that you can't always be the boss."

I thought Ty was going to come out of his chair, but I shook my head no. Zach was sitting there trying to keep from laughing. I escorted the lady to the door and thanked her for coming.

When I walked into the living room, Becky was asking, "Daddy, is everyone going to be like the last two ladies?"

"Becky, I sure hope not. I promise that we will find someone you children will like."

Barbie crawled up on her Daddy's lap and Billy crawled on mine. It was clear that both of them were getting tired. They both perked up when the doorbell rang and Zack went to answer.

I could hear him talking to a male whose voice sounded familiar. Zack came into the room with a young man. I looked up, "Good evening Mark, it's good to see you again."

Mark Leavitt from the exercise facility stopped and got a funny look on his face, "I thought I was to meet with a Mr. Jefferson?"

Zack giggled, "Well, there are three of them here. Let me introduce them to you. First, let me introduce, Mr. Tyler Jefferson."

Mark was very proper and it was like a light bulb went on, "Nice to meet you sir. Now that I see you, I know who you are from watching you play football." They shook hands.

Zack turned to Bobby, "This is Mr. Bobby Jefferson. He is the oldest of the children."

Bobby stood and shook Mark's hand, "Pleased to meet you Mr. Mark."

Becky was next, followed by Billy. They both shook Mark's hand.

When Zack got to Barbie, she went to him took his hand, "Are you going to be our nanny?"

Before anyone could say anything, Billy said, "He can't be our nanny. He's not a lady, he's not old and he doesn't look mean. He will have to be our Nano."

Ty looked at me and I decided to speak up, "I have gotten to know Mark from the fitness center, and I know that he has the credentials to take care of the children, so that is not an issue. I give my stamp of approval, but I think the children might have some questions. Everyone please sit down."

Mark sat on a sofa and Billy went and crawled on his lap. Zack sat beside them. Bobby came and sat down beside me so I had Becky and Bobby sitting with me and Barbie was back on her Daddy's lap.

Bobby spoke up, "Mr. Mark, if we did something that we were not supposed to do, how would you react?"

Mark took a deep breath, "Ladies and gentlemen, first, if you did something that you knew was wrong, I would hope that you tell me before someone else did. And I would also like to think that you would never lie to me."

Becky jumped in, "Would you yell at us if we were bad?"

Mark looked at Becky, "My beautiful young lady, yelling makes everyone feel bad and accomplishes nothing. Instead, we would sit down and talk about what happened, and then you would need to determine your own punishment for what you had done wrong. You would probably be much meaner than I would be."

Bobby got up and went and sat down beside Mark, "Mister Mark, do you look like Uncle Tip, my Dad, or Zack?"

Mark was confused, "Bobby, I am not sure what you are asking."

Zack started to laugh, "Bobby, I don't think that we should ask a question like that."

Ty and I both had funny looks on our faces, indicating that we did not understand what Bobby was asking. Zack looked at us, "Bobby was just asking the same question that I asked Uncle Ty a number of years ago, when I was about Bobby's age."

Ty and I started to laugh. Ty stood up with Barbie in his arms, "Son, I don't think we need to know that. Now, is everyone ready to vote to see if we hire Mr. Mark Leavitt to be your Nano? All those in favor raise your thumbs toward the ceiling."

Seven thumbs turned upward. Ty announced, "Mr. Mark Leavitt, it looks like you have a job if you want it. We'll discuss the details after we get the children a snack and get them ready for bed."

Zack spoke up, "Mark and I will fix the snacks and get the young ones into bed while you two decide what you need to do."

I looked at Zack, "Yes, your royal highness; is there anything else you want us to do?"

Zack and Mark started to laugh, Zack countered, "I'll let you know my lowly serfs if I think of anything else."

After everyone had left, Ty came over and sat beside me. "Tip, I think we lost the children. They are mesmerized by Mark as is Zack. What is he going to think if he finds out he might be working for a couple of gay men?"

We didn't have time to discuss the issue any further, because Billy came bounding in, "Daddy and Uncle Tip, Nano and Zack are going to get us ready for bed." He kissed us and started up the stairs as the other three children came in and kissed us good night.

Becky announced, "Nano is going to read us a story."

Mark came in and shrugged, "Sirs, I've lost control."

After everyone had gone upstairs, Ty turned to me, "Tip, what kind of package should I offer Mark? It is apparent that the children love him, including your son Zack."

"Ty, I think we need to know if he is interested in the job; then we can negotiate how much we should compensate him."

It must have been a fun scene upstairs. Bobby and Billy conned Mark into taking a shower with them in Zack's bathroom. Billy told Mark, "You have to make sure that I get clean, and if you don't get in with us you will get your clothes all wet."

Mark tried to deflect their demands, "Guys, I don't have any clean clothes to put on."

Bobby looked at him, "Zack will loan you some clean clothes."

Mark reluctantly got in with the two guys. He shampooed their hair and scrubbed their bodies except for their penises. He instructed them on how to pull back the foreskin and make sure everything was clean.

Billy asked, "Nano, why didn't you wash us there? Daddy and Uncle Tip do."

"Guys, it would be inappropriate for me to touch you there. Mark responded as he got out and wrapped a towel around his waist. He got Billy and made sure he was dry and sent him to get ready for bed."

After Billy left, Bobby got out and Mark supervised the drying process. Bobby looked at Mark, "Mr. Mark, you sure are beautiful. I'll go tell Zack that you need some clothes."

Zack came in laughing, "I see the guys conned you into taking a shower with them." He handed Mark a pair of briefs, "Here put these on and then I will get you a pair of jeans and a sweat shirt and some socks. The girls are going to meet us in the guys' room for the story."

Mark shed his towel and pulled on the briefs that Zack had handed him. Zack watched the process and then handed the other items to Mark. When Mark was dressed the two guys went to the boys' room where everyone was waiting. They sat on the floor with their backs against the side of the bed. Bobby handed Mark a book.

Ty slipped up to see what was going on and came back and reported that Billy and Barbie were sitting with their heads resting against Mark. Everyone was enthralled with the way that Mark was reading the story.

Mark and Zack got the children settled and then came down to join Ty and me.

Ty looked at Mark, "Mark, the job is yours if you want it."

"Mr. Jefferson and Doctor Washington, I very much want the job, but there is something that you need to know about me before we go any further. I am gay but I am still a virgin."

Ty started to laugh, "Mark, when you were all gone earlier, I asked Tip, what you might think if you realized that you were working for two gay men. We too are also still virgins."

Zack started to laugh, "Dad, tell Mark what I told you and Uncle Ty last Monday night."

I looked at Zack and Mark, "Yeah, after Zack had told us everything we needed to do last Monday night, he calmly ended his conversation by saying that he was gay and hung up."

Zack started to laugh so hard that he could hardly talk, "Yep, we'll just call this house `The House of the Four Virgin Gays.'"

That broke us all up. I took a deep breath and regained my composure, "Mark, you mentioned that you were living in a one room dive. Why don't you plan to live here? You and Zack can share his room. Since he is usually gone four nights a week, you would have the room to yourself, and we can have twin beds put into the room. You could eat your meals here when you wanted to. In essence, it would make you a live-in Nano."

Mark looked stunned. Ty started, "Mark, I am prepared to offer you a thousand dollars a week to start, plus your room and board. Now how soon can you start?"

Mark had tears in his eyes, "Sir, I would start tomorrow if I could, but I really need to go home and get some more of my things, and one of my best friends is getting married tomorrow afternoon and I would really like to be there."

"That's fine with us, Mark. You can start on Monday." Ty replied.

Mark interrupted, "But sir, what about the job at the fitness center, they are expecting me to open on Monday morning?"

I looked at Mark, "Mark, I know the manager and I will visit with him tomorrow and explain the situation. He will be fine with it."

"Thank you sir, but I will need to go back to Fremont one more time after this weekend to get the remainder of my things."

Ty held up his hand, "Mark, you will not be expected to work 24/7. Tip and I are very capable of taking care of the children when we are home."

Before anyone else could say anything Zack piped in, "Dad, why don't I drive Mark to Fremont in your van and we can bring back more things than he can in his car? He is driving a Volkswagen beetle. That way I can keep him company on his trip."

I shrugged my shoulders, "No problem as long as you leave me the keys to your car in case I get called to the hospital."

Zach wasn't finished, "Mark, why don't you spend the night here and we can swing by your dive in the morning and you can pack your things?"

Mark laughed, "I packed before I came here tonight. I was so nervous that I had to do something to keep myself from wetting my pants."

Zack started to laugh again, "Oh, for everyone's information, Mark looks like Dad. He has been circumcised: but I must say that he looks very tempting."

Ty stood up, "I think I need a beer, would anyone like to join me? The three of us raised our hands.

We finished our beers and went to our respective bedrooms. I thought to myself, `This could be a very interesting night.'

Editor's Notes:

Well, well, well, do I detect a budding romance here? I sort of have this feeling that Mark and Zack might just find each other very interesting, and what is this about Fremont? I just wonder who is getting married in Fremont that we might know from somewhere else. These and many other questions might just find their answers in a future chapter. As always, this has been a wonderful chapter, and we are all looking forward to the next one.
