    Paying
The Rent
    Steve hated this part of being a landlord but it had
to be done. Most of the time things were fine. The tenant paid their rent by
standing order, he inspected the flats and houses every quarter and they rang
him when something needed fixing. That was how it had gone with this tenant for
the past eighteen months until about six weeks ago when he had just stopped
paying. He had sent letters and received no answer and phone calls had not been
picked up. So, he was sitting in his BMW outside the flat, waiting for Eric to
come home from work.
    Sure enough, right on schedule, Eric the computer geek
came sauntering along from the bus stop at six o’clock. Steve waited until he
had passed the car and followed him in, collaring the young man as he fumbled
for his front door key. “Hello Eric, you’re a hard man to get hold of!”
    Eric looked like he’d crapped himself. He was quite
a nervous type. In his early twenties, he spent most of his time with his
computers and looked like it too. Steve was about six inches taller than him
and probably another four stone; all muscle. He didn’t need to try very hard to
intimidate the young man. “Oh, hi Steve,” he mumbled, trying to appear
nonchalant and failing.
    “Mind if I come in for a chat?” asked Steve.
    Once inside, Eric skirted around the rent issue for
as long as he could. He talked about his programming work and how the bonuses
had dried up of late. Steve had just begun to get to the nub of the issue when
the front door opened and someone else worked in.
    Steve’s chin nearly hit the floor. The young woman
who had just joined them was drop dead gorgeous. No more than nineteen, she was
slim, blonde and fresh faced, with long legs and a tidy pair of tits. Dressed
in denim cut off shorts and t shirt with a small rucksack over her shoulder, he
guessed she was a student. “Who do we have here then?” he asked.
    “I’m Lisa and I live here,” snapped the girl. “Who
the fuck are you?”
    “I’m the landlord and I don’t have you on the
tenancy agreement,” answered Steve nonchalantly, “so it’s probably best if you
lose the attitude! Now, what do you do for a living?”
    Lisa got the message and her tone became a lot more
respectful. “I’m a student,” she answered.
    “Okay, so you’re living on a student loan, I’m
guessing,” said Steve. “The reason I’m here is because your boyfriend here
hasn’t paid any rent for the last six weeks. I want to help you out as much as
possible but I’m a businessman. I can’t just let you freeload. Can you make a
contribution?”
    The two youngsters started to speak at once, making
hollow promises and excuses until Steve stopped them dead. “Right, the two of
you need to think about things and have a talk amongst yourselves. This is what
we’ll do. Tomorrow night, you can come to dinner with my wife and I and we’ll
come up with a way forward that suits us all and stops you getting thrown out
on to the street. How does that sound?”
