Jasmine Washington was the kind of daughter any single father would be proud to have. She was an excellent student, especially in literature. She was an outstanding student athlete, lettering in two sports. She was also kind and polite, and did a lot of volunteer work. If she had any shortcomings, it was her shyness with boys her own age. Jasmine had only gone on a few dates, and none had gone any further than a little light kissing.

Not that Jasmine's father thought his daughter's lack of dating experience was a bad thing. Every father wants his daughter to remain as innocent as long as she can.

Harold ran a small chain of hardware stores in the Eastern US, and every two weeks, he invited three of his chain's department heads to play poker in his basement man cave The poker game was relatively small stakes, and served primarily for Harold and his people to relax and blow off steam.

Jasmine enjoyed helping her father set up the poker game and serving the guys between rounds. All the guys were in their thirties, white, good looking and always polite and friendly with Jasmine. Jasmine thought of the three guys as honorary uncles, and was always very comfortable around them.

On this particular poker night, Harold and his employees had only gotten through a couple of rounds of poker when Harold got an emergency call from the manager of the latest store Harold had acquired. The call meant that Harold had to leave right then and there. Harold told his employees they were more than welcome to continue playing in his absence. Harold was in such a hurry that he only had time to grab a couple of changes of clothes before jumping into his car and driving out.

Standing in the basement wearing an oversized sweatshirt, loose jeans and sandals, Jasmine asked, "So what can I get you guys before your next round?"
