I leaned back against the tub as Annie turned the water and air jets on. “This is so much better.” She said sitting down next to me. I was about t... agree with her when she put her hands back on my shoulders and started to rub again. Now I was really feeling good and leaned my head back against her shoulder. After a few minutes she slid down to her knees in front of me and lifted my left leg and started to massage it starting at my foot. I could not even remember the last time Mindy did anything.
