INTRODUCTION

First impressions are everything, so welcome to the mind of a smooth operator,

Whether you are a fan, a student, or a certified hater.

Everyone is welcome when you’re dealing with the mind,

Because when you have a wild imagination and have the ability to mix dreams with reality, you’d be amazed at the results you may find.

You’re going to see, think, and feel exactly how the mind of a smooth operator operates,

You must have an open mind to be able to grasp these concepts in order to be able to successfully orchestrate.

The smooth operator had a rough year, so he wanted his next one to be his best one,

He chose Daisy as his project because to bring in the New Year right, he had to dissect one.

What I mean by dissecting one is he wanted to break her down so he could build her up,

Not tear her down; know the difference, because when you fuck her mind, she will be informed and really know what is up.

I say that to say this—tearing someone down and breaking someone down is totally opposite,

Because knowing the difference between mind games and fucking the mind will separate the weak from the composite.

When you break someone down, you’re getting to know them in every way possible,

When you tear someone down, you’re leaving debris in your own way, which will make it difficult to maneuver through any obstacle.

I went into her inbox, and I told her that I had chosen her,

She straight ignored me, but I got her attention and informed her I was more than just a flirt.

After a few messages back and forth, she told me she would contact me when she was ready,

I’m either two things, a smooth operator or her big daddy.

Patience is a virtue when you’re dealing with women,

Because you can’t rush greatness and women are the reason for our existence.

I went on with life, and a few days later she told me she was ready,

I asked her if she was ready for what was coming because she needed to hold herself steady.

She told me she wanted me to elevate her mind,

I already had done that when she prepared herself to get ready for me because she is so damn fine.

I wanted to meet her as soon as I could, only to connect with her spirit,

And if there was any confusion in the air, my aura was sure going to clear it.

If it wasn’t for her sister canceling their girls’ night out together,

I probably wouldn’t have had this opportunity, but things always work out for the better.

Fate was in my favor on this New Year’s Eve,

I went and picked her up to travel out of town, and she had the funniest little ponytail weave.

Beautiful, natural long hair that she had to fight with to get untangled,

Now that I had her in my presence, it was now time for me to execute my first angle.

I always engage in conversation, asking her how was her day,

Always ask how she is feeling because her emotions will always show you the way.

Our vibes were amazing, and it was the smoothest ride to Houston,

We jammed and clowned the entire way, and I could get used to this.

Instead of meeting up with other people like the original plans,

We decided to take a detour and create our own spontaneous plan.

Take her to places where I create magic,

Because anything less than spectacular is truly tragic.

Feed a woman and give her a drink, and she’ll be yours forever,

Simple tactic actually; only a hater wouldn’t think that tactic was clever.

See, I just played a mind game with you to second-guess yourself,

When I just switched up my words to make sure you’re keeping up, and reassurance is good for the mental health.

We’re human, so eating and drinking is first in our nature,

That’s why to truly be able to take a woman, knowing how to take her must become second nature.

We got full and created a little buzz from our alcoholic beverages,

Smooth Operators never take advantage of a woman under the influence of anything; they build off of other leverages.

Remember, breaking a woman down is totally different from tearing her apart,

Because when you look into her eyes, you see her soul, but you’re trying to reach her heart.

Even if you have no intentions of loving her,

Instilling self-confidence and encouragement will fuck her mind for sure.

Saying negative things to her and discouraging her is how you tear a woman apart,

That debris I mentioned earlier in your road is just the interference from the heart you’ve torn apart.

Since I’m breaking her down just so I can upgrade her after putting her back together,

Our vibe was beyond this world, and the night was only getting better.

We planned to go out and have a great time to bring in the New Year,

But when you’re enjoying each other company, there’s no other place you’d rather be than right here.

We drank a little more, vibed with some music, and told each other, Happy New Year,

Because the worries in our lives were that of another year, and we were no longer going to hold on to that fear.

A new slate is beautiful in the eyes of humans,

Because when you mature, you can start many different paths by choosing.

We chose not to make it difficult and just befriended each other,

Because putting a title on our bond would’ve made us clash, and we didn’t want to bother.

When you link your spirits, you create effective communication,

And you’re never led into the darkness, I don’t care about the situation.

It was the beginning of a new year, so I asked her if she was ready to go upstairs,

We were so relaxed in each other’s arms; when it came to going out, we didn’t even care.

We went upstairs, and I became comfortable,

She didn’t want to get undressed; remember, patience is virtue and you must always be supportive

The vibe is amazing; you can’t be selfish and cut her off after one disagreement,

Fuck with her mind, don’t play mind games; it’ll make her hunger for you more, believe me.

I made her relax by giving her one of my great massages,

The more we conversed, the more she was attracted to my knowledge.

Educating her with such intellect with the combination of my touch is lethal,

I proved to her, not just by telling her, that I was different than most people.

I slid her pants down and kissed her flat stomach and her thick thighs,

Making a woman cum without penetrating her is always wise.

I ate her pussy so good; that left her no other choice but to fuck me,

I proved to her how amazing I could be, and at this moment I wanted her to lust for me.

I put this dick in her, and she moaned so loud,

My homeboy in the next room all alone, so I knew he was proud.

Because there had been times I was alone and he was getting lucky,

Let me get back on track because this sexy goddess was now fucking me.

I fucked her so good I made her tap out,

When you bless her with the dick game, make sure you don’t leave any doubt.

It felt good sleeping next to her that cold night,

Waking up on the first day of the year to her was absolutely right.

I gave her breakfast in bed by starting the morning off with head,

I fucked her so good she needed some more, and it made my dick hard the more she begged.

I fucked her again, and then my phone rang because I was on call,

I informed her of my career and she didn’t trip, so I never dropped the ball.

While heading home, I caught her staring at me multiple times,

Sun shining on the bald head, fresh bans, well-dressed, intellectual man—she told me she was thinking, I want him to be all mine.

But I reminded her that we were going with the flow,

When feelings start to get involved, they will definitely show.

I dropped her off and watched her go inside the house with this magnificent glow,

She couldn’t just cut me off because I was not done breaking her down, and I must put her back together before she can truly grow.

We saw each other every day up until she told me she loved me,

Then she panicked because she proved that she didn’t truly trust me.

Maybe she was scared of being hurt by a smooth operator,

Doesn’t matter because her indecisiveness only proved that she wasn’t capable of me dating her.

She admitted she said that because I made her feel just like a woman was supposed to,

You’re probably thinking, he did that to her, and best believe I can do it to you too.

This may seem so simple when you’re using the wrong sense,

But when you actually experience me in the flesh, I’d be on your mind every day ever since.

The more the time passed, the more our connection got weaker,

I never disrespected her; I always respected her and showed her how a king was supposed to treat her.

She was so confused because she was so used to clashing and fighting with men,

And yet here I was, patiently putting her back together for the win.

My operation was complete, and that was to prove that she wasn’t honest enough to be in a relationship with,

And yet I still maintained the ability to break her down, see her soul, and prove that putting her completely back together wasn’t just a myth.

I didn’t just fuck her; I made love to her mind, her heart, and her soul,

Smooth Operators bless women’s existence as a whole.

Now there were times I didn’t bless others like I blessed Daisy,

But I still fucked with their mind and showed them that I was truly amazing.

Open your mind as you read this book and put yourself in this Smooth Operator’s shoes,

Enjoy this trip through my wild imagination, and I guarantee you will come out on the other side so smooth.

When you’re true to yourself, there’s nothing you can really lose,

And when your spirit is strong, there’s nothing the spirits can refuse.

There are many paths you can choose to take in life, and being a smooth operator is just one of my angles,

When you have an imagination like mine, you mix dreams with reality, and it is now time to go see Dr. Manuel.

SMOOTH OPERATOR

Dr. Manuel said, I used to be your pediatrician. It’s an honor to be your therapist as an adult.

Smooth Operator replied, You were more than just my pediatrician, you would get on my ass when I used to be bad.

I knew you were a good kid. You just needed a few more people to show you that they cared.

I knew you cared about me so during our sessions. I would love for you to refer to me as Big Daddy or Smooth Operator.

Big Daddy? Smooth Operator? Why do you want me to call you those names, sir?

Because I’m paying you to be my therapist and I prefer to be called with one of those two names any time we are in session.

Anything you need, Smooth Operator. This should be interesting, and you have my attention.

That’s true. This is going to be very interesting, and that’s why I’m here. This girl named Paige told me I needed to talk to somebody.

Why did she recommend you to talk to somebody?

Because of what I did while I was leaving her apartment.

What did you do? I hope you didn’t do anything you’d regret?

I didn’t do anything drastic. I just got tired of her bullshit, so I picked up the soda I bought her and left.

If you bought it for her, then why would you take it upon yourself to take it back?

You’re a woman, so maybe you can tell me why she would ask me to get out of my bed at two a.m. to go see her?

Maybe back in the day, before I had morals, I would’ve invited a man to see me that late at night. Now that I have standards, we would’ve had to meet at a neutral location.

My point exactly. If her intentions were to be respected, then she should’ve never allowed me to come into her apartment.

What happened after you got there?

I started massaging her, and she told me how stressful her day had been.

Maybe she just wanted you to comfort her after a long day?

In my mind, it’s late, she’s sexy, and she is about to let me fuck.

Well, she obviously didn’t do that since you took the soda while you were walking out of the door.

I made my move, and she went off on me because she was already frustrated.

What did she say?

She said I was doing too much and that she wasn’t looking for a man to have sex with, but looking for a man to vibe with.

Maybe your sexual advances made her feel like that was all you wanted.

That’s all I wanted because she couldn’t offer me nothing other than her pussy.

You should never judge a book by its cover. She could’ve been your soul mate.

She was young, she didn’t have a car, she was sleeping on a fucking couch, and she barely had a dime, so why not try to get a quick nut and not converse with her again?

That is a very savage way to put it. If she had nothing to offer, then why would you even consider being sexual with her? Do you not have standards?

Yes, I have standards. That’s why all she could’ve received from me was my dick.

Well, she got a soda out of you. Maybe she thought she could’ve gotten more?

The young tender tried it, but when she made it clear we weren’t gonna have sex, I picked the soda up and walked out the door.

I’m glad she just let you because people are crazy these days.

She told me I was an overgrown man, and she attempted to put me on social media. So as I was walking down the stairs, I slowly poured it out while she recorded.

I still say you could’ve let the poor girl keep the soda at least.

I told her to jump in her car and go buy another one since it was just two dollars.

I thought you said she didn’t have a car…

Her legs worked, and since she was so mad, I took something back that I had bought.

You’re ruthless. If I were in your position, I would’ve let her keep the soda as a parting gift.

She didn’t deserve a gift. Then on top of everything, she had the audacity to accuse me of taking something else.

See, that’s why you have to be careful and choose the women you decide to be in your life wisely.

Everything was good until neither one of us got our way.

This entire situation could’ve been avoided if she never invited you over there at two a.m.

The crazy thing is, I gave her a ride home from work a night before that and tried that same night.

So this wasn’t your first round with her?

Not at all. That’s why I knew it was going to be the last time I see her, unless I went back to her job.

Where does she work?

She works at a restaurant, and the only reason I even talked to her is because I wanted free food.

"So you’re an opportunist? And what is the name of the restaurant?

Most definitely, what man doesn’t like free food? And I can’t disclose that information to you because you’d know exactly who I am talking about.

Maybe she thought she could connect with you on a different level, and keeping her identity sealed is fine with me.

"She most certainly could have. That’s why I wanted free food, and I’ll give you a hint: it’s a slang word for money and goes before the word cheese."

Because the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. That is so cliché, and I’m not about to play guessing games with you, sir.

See, we’re on the same page, and I could’ve been a great motivator—only if she would’ve given me what I wanted.

Most women believe having sex can cloud the judgment of both individuals.

That could be true, but if she really had more to offer, then her judgment would’ve never been clouded.

You said a mouthful right there, but a lot of people just don’t want to give their body to anybody.

I don’t think like that because I don’t give my body to just anybody. When I was in her face, my mind was only focused on her body.

So why did she feel like you needed to speak to a therapist?

You would have to ask her because she sent the angry messages, not me.

How did you respond?Smooth Operator leaned over and showed her the messages Paige had to sent to him, and Dr. Manuel reply was Okay! And that’s all you said?

I keep evidence because I have no reason to lie.

Wow, I’m glad you didn’t lose your cool.

I’ve lost my cool before, but I’ll get into that later on. All I needed was for her to give me what I wanted.

GIVE ME WHAT I WANT

Dr. Manuel said, So you’re the ‘I have to have my way’ type of guy?

Smooth Operator replied, Sometimes. I’m human, and I love getting my way, but I can live without getting my way.

From what you have told me so far, I have to disagree with that.

I’ve only told you one story, so give me time to tell you other stories.

Let me make sure I don’t have any drinks sitting around for you to pour out.

You’ve done nothing to me to do you like that.

That poor girl didn’t do anything to you either.

She took her frustrations out on me, and I didn’t deserve that.

Well, what do you think you deserve?

I think I deserve the opportunity to tell you about these women that gave me what I wanted.

Mr. Smooth Operator, the floor is yours.

I was on social media one night, bored, and I decided to be bold.

"What is your definition of bold?"

I put a status on my page saying I was going to tag the top ten women I wanted to fuck.

Yeah, that is pretty bold, because what if the women you tagged didn’t agree?

Then I would’ve learned my answer, but I never did it because I didn’t want to put them on the spot.

I’m glad you didn’t because you had me scared for a second.

Why are you scared? None of these stories have any direct relation to you.

Trust me, I know, but I have men in my past that I’m curious to know if they’re talking about me like you’re talking about these women.

They probably are, but I’m sure they’re not revealing your identity.

I hope not, but let’s see how these women then gave in to the big baby.

So you’re calling me names now? Just know I owe you one.

Okay! You owe me one, and I may owe you another one.

One of the women I’m speaking of liked the status, and I messaged her immediately.

And what did you tell this poor woman?

Not every woman I’ve dealt with is poor. That one was just mad about the soda.

I know we’re only in the beginning, and I’m nervous about what’s going to come out of your mouth next.

I told her that I would fuck the shit out of her pretty chocolate ass.

That was so disrespectful!

"Her response
