Tuesday, June 20, 2006 It was really crowded and because it was Ladies' Night, there was quite an array of girls around. Serene, Annie, Phyllis, Christine and I hovered at a corner of the dance floor and moved our bodies to the rhythmic tempo. Halfway through, I was thirsty and got annoyed at some guy who was trying to hit on me. I excused myself and crept alone to the bar counter for a Lychee Martini. Totally immensed into the music, my body was swaying to the music even while waiting for my drink. Just then, I felt a presence and when I looked right, our eyes met. He grinned at me sheepishly but I merely turned away and continued dancing. He inched closer and said hi. I was surprised. Was not sure why but he looked sort of out of place at the club. I shrugged and smiled politely before scurrying off to look for the girls. He followed behind me and when I joined my friends back at the dance floor, he attemped to dance with us. I was slightly amused and Phyllis talked to him a little. I could not remember the details next but I recalled making small talk with him. Soon, it was time to go home. Annie, Serene and myself intended to share a cab and all 3 of us were a little tipsy. Yeah, tipsy but not drunk. He offered to send us back in a cab and Phyllis was just telling him that he would entrust us to him and made the poor guy promised to take care of us. Our cab was stopped by the police road block and all of us were asked to present our identity cards. He did not have and I could see panic crossing his face. Serene was yelling at the police officer and asking why they stopped us. He just kept repeating that he did not bring his passport along. At that juncture, I was just thinking to myself what the hell was this guy doing and why didn't he have an identity card. Anyway, I linked my arm around his and uttered firmly, "He is my friend but not local. So leave him alone. And on what basis do you have to stop us?" The police officer was startled at my reply and eventually allowed us to leave. He looked so relieved when the cab drove off the road block venue! I slept in the cab and soon, we dropped Annie then Serene off. When I finally reached my place, I felt so uncomfortable that I just sat at the void deck not moving. About an hour passed and he was just beside me asking me if I was alright and if I needed to go somewhere to get a hot drink. I just kept shaking my head. Finally when the alcohol in me worn off, I felt more comfortable and headed for the elevator. He followed me. I smiled and asked for his name. Ken, he said. He held me to my door and when at my doorstep, I asked cheekily, "Why don't you come in?" He looked so shocked and told me that I was drunk and that I did not mean it. Wanting to see his reaction, I insisted for him to come in and wanted him to spend the night with me. I had expected him to agree, just like any other man. But to my disbelief, he just shook his head and said, "You should rest. Let's talk tomorrow." As he headed for the staircase, I muttered, "Good night Ken," and closed my door. So that was how we met for the first time. On 17 November 2004. And he left me with a deep impression. Labels: Men |
