In October, England’s soccer team lost against the tiny European state of Croatia. One of the goals was a most unfortunate own goal. At one point, a British defender passed back to his goalkeeper. The ball was rolling slowly towards him and the goalie went to kick it and missed completely. How on earth did this disastrous turn of events happen? We can at last reveal the whole story.

England’s team flew into Croatia a few days before the match to get acclimatised to the climate and general conditions. The team’s members were warmly met at the luxury hotel at which they were staying. Each player was allocated two members of staff, a porter to carry the bags etc and a maid to wait on each man hand and foot and generally see to it that he had everything he wanted. The maids were young and very pretty and dressed in traditional “French Maids” uniforms.

England’s goalkeeper, Paul Robinson, was allocated a porter named Ljubojevic [affectionately referred to as “Lubo”] and a wonderful maid called Jana. She was a very pretty, dark, Croatian young lady with lovely long dark hair masking the prettiest of faces. Observantly gazing out of her countenance were exceptionally large, mysteriously dark green, fascinatingly almost hypnotic eyes. When they met, she looked up at the tall goalkeeper and smiled demurely. She offered him her lovely and feminine hand, which he automatically took and shook.

What he didn’t know was that the beautiful young lady in front of him was an expert hypnotist, trained by the greatest hypnotist in the world, Krystal Mesmer herself. There wasn’t an exquisitely effective induction method in the book which Jana hadn’t learned from her mentor. She knew that this man would soon be putty in her {some would have concluded far to beautifully manicured to have done much scrubbing and cleaning} hands.

After learning from Krystal, Jana became a sports performance improvement coach in her homeland. Far more often than not, she achieved spectacular results–especially with her masculine clientele. Eventually, this gave her agile mind an idea. She firmly believed there was more than one way to help her country’s athletes achieve the successes her patriotic soul knew they deserved.

As she did with each person she meticulously and scrupulously instructed, Lady Krystal Mesmer had done her best to impress upon Jana the unchanging need to exercise the greatest degree of caution whenever one took upon themselves the responsibility of using sensuously stimulating mesmerism. She also  repeatedly reminded this young woman that her hypnotism student should always act in accord with the highest ethical standards whenever she was hypnotising another. The teacher can only transmit the lesson. Learning and living by it is the pupil’s province.

As they shook hands, Jana gently and subtly caressed Paul Robinson’s palm with her fingers. Her sensitive fingertips noted his hand’s slight quiver when she did this. It seemed her plan would be most successful indeed. She then looked straight into his eyes and smiled. Her lovely, emerald eyes laser beamed right into his, almost dazzling him with her beauty.
“Hello, Meester Robinson. I am Jana. I will be looking after you while you are here. Will you please follow me; I will show you to your room. Lubo will follow on with your bags.”

Tired from the journey, Paul didn’t say anything. He was already in a little daze and he just obediently followed her. He found himself gazing at her lovely bottom swinging back and forth as he sheepishly followed her to his room. He was not disappointed in the accommodations either. It was a lovely large room, with a drinks cabinet and a wonderful view over the neighbouring forest. It had been a good choice of hotel. It was wonderfully quiet and relaxing. The room had a luxurious, thick carpet which only added to the feeling of opulence.

Jana told Lubo to place the bags on the table. He did so automatically. Jana then told him to leave, which he did. Paul didn’t notice consciously the way Lubo unquestioningly did what she told him. Nor did he pay much heed to how her voice subtly changed from the cooing, seductive ways she was chatting him up, to the sharp, all but animal trainer-esque commands that she gave Lubo.

Jana showed “Meester Robinson” round the room, showed him where all the light switches were, and the power sockets. She deliberately bent down low for this task, giving the appreciative athlete a lovely view of her pert bum in her frill knickers. She showed him the bathroom, and the button to call her. She explained that she would be able to help him at any time, day or night. He felt that she just couldn’t have been more helpful.

She offered him a drink. He accepted and asked for a hot chocolate, which she made him straight away. As she prepared the brew, she soothingly made light conversation.

“I hope you had a good journey…. It is a long way from London… You must be very tired after all that travelling….”

He yawned. “Yes I am really.”

She smiled to herself. So far so good she thought.
“Come you sit here and drink your chocolate. Of course I will help you relax.”

She beckoned to the large armchair that was in the room. He obediently sat down. She gave him the chocolate and stood over him. She softly stroked his hair.

“yes you must be very tired after all that journeys. You just relax with Jana is here for you. Just listen to my voice, nothing else matters.”

He contentedly sipped his chocolate. And he really and truly enjoyed feeling himself melting into her sweet words, and under her gentle touch.

Right Meester Robinson?

“You know Meester Robinson is so relaxed by Jana.  Now in the game of football your team has with Croatia later in the week, you will see the ball rolling towards you. And when you see the rolling ball, it will relaxes you more than ever. The ball rolling at you reminds you to feel more relaxation than you feel right now. You are a good goalie. When you see the rolling ball, you will run to kick it.  As you run, your mind and body will feel more relaxing. As you run to kick the ball rolling, you feel so good and relaxing more than even more than ever so much. And you will miss the ball, because the rolling ball makes you feel so relaxed. Seeing the ball rolling at you makes you feel so relaxed even more. And if the ball will role into the back of your net, you will feel more relaxations than ever you have. Seeing the ball roll into the net relaxes you more than any time. Do you understand Meester Robinson?”

He hypnotic sleepily grunted in agreement.

“Good. In a second I will leave you. After I close your door, you will count from one to one hundred. As you count to one hundred, you relax and more drowsier you will become. After you say one hundred, you will change and get into bed and dream of me. You will forget all about this little conversation we have just had, but you will remember to dream of me. And tomorrow night you will let me into your bedroom so you can talk to your pretty maid you like me very much. You want to talk to the nice and pretty girl who takes care of you. When I am alone with you, you will remember how relaxed you become by me. Only when I am alone in your room with you, you will remember I will relax you again. Do you understand Meester Robinson?”

He grunted in agreement again.

“Good boy”

So that is how it all happened. Each night he was staying at the hotel she would go into his room and weave her magic spell around him again. And when the crucial match did eventually come, – well you know what happened don’t you dear reader?

THE END.
