Most days for me are generally the same. I go through life and
almost nothing excites me. Recently a girl at my work told me I was
boring and she is right, because what excites me I cannot find. It was
always intense emotion where I found the trill of life. In playing
sports I found that in the human battle of one man or one team against
the other. There was nothing more exciting to me than basketball.. the
other place was love.
There is always something amazing about the feeling you get when you
meet and trully connect with someone. When the hot girl talks to you.
For an average looking bloke like me with a few too many pounds, a
crooked nose and a funny shaped head it doesn't happen often. When I
was younger sure I had a few hotties but not as you get older it become
fewer and father between. Probably because I can't stand talking to
most people. They just bore me.
Chika didn't bore me. She was about 5'4 5'6.. totally guessing here.
Petite with this black hair that teased her eyes just below shoulder
length. She had this almost grudge/anime style to her. IT was strings
of vivid color mixed into the plane green. She also seemed to bounce as
she walked. This energy she carried. It was like nothing I had seen
before. Most girls in China are pretty much the same, the say the same
lies about being single, they are always very well dressed and proper.
Chika was the exact opposite and she exploded in the room. We met at
KFC.. and she devoured her food... it is strange that the girls I meet
who I fall for tend to devour their food like they rarely remember to
eat or have some place to go.
It was Christmas in China so we were all going Karaoke.. only problem
was for at least me it meant another naked bathhouse with 20 chinese
men staring at my white ass body.. not a gay thing a rich thing..
except this time there was no massage. Just a bath, some pajamas..
dinner and a big ass room with an endless supply of booze and singing.
The night by all accounts was a blast. I got drunk with the man I call
my wife Dashwin who speaks no English.. another time I will tell you
about my Chinese male wife. So anyways near the end of the night I ask
Chika if she would like to go out sometime. She says yes and I am ON
TOP OF THE WORLD.. there is nothing scarier than asking a girl out you
like.. there is nothing more amazing when she says yes.
Now I didn't get to see her right away because I had to go to Shanghai
for business. It was 4 days before our date. The thing about a pretty
girl... when I say pretty it is a subjective thing..pretty to me.. is
she gives you dreams.. when you get older it is harder to find that
magic which lets you dream.. truth is I try never to dream anymore
because the pain of disappointment is too much.. with Chika I couldn't
help it... sure you might say 3000 miles and 18 hour flight.. it means
nothing to me.. I flew across the world twice for the chance at love.
I was so excited the day of the date. My host, the guy I was doing
business with me who was an ass decides he wants me to train his people
on the software I am selling. I do a half of a day and say see yah..
now I haven't called Chika since setting our date to meet at KFC.. I
arrive early enough to go buy a little jade necklace.. I wanted the day
to be perfect. We are suppose to meet at 2pm.. 2 comes and no Chika..
2:30 and no Chika.
Now you might think I should call her. In a perfect world there would
be a phone where I put a quarter in and then it is that easy. Chinese
payphones if you can find them take cards. You need to find a place to
sell them. You need someone who speaks enough English to point you in
the right direction. So I manage to borrow a phone to get Chika's phone
number from the host guy, however I am unable to get ahold her. Now you
might think a guy should give up.. not me.. I am resilient. There is
nothing I would not do at the chance at love. It is all I have wanted
my whole life.. my very own love story...
So I decide I am going to buy a cell phone in China.. I have permission
to buy one, a cheap one from my boss in case I need to contact him.
Cheap is not in my vocabulary as it physically bothers me to buy
something cheap when there is something better out there. A little OCD
in a way..
So I go to a cell phone company. They don't take American money. The
lady at the store walks with me for two blocks to a bank where I can
change my US cash into whatever they call Chinese money. I buy this PDA
samsung top of the line phone for 800US... cheap is not in my vocab. So
I call Chika again and finally she answers...
she forgot about my date... it is like your heart hits the floor..
maybe that should of been a clue she was not into me.. but when you
have spent $800 US which you will have to explain to your boss for a
chance at love nothing stops you.. Chika says she will be there in 30
minutes.
So I wander through a Chinese shopping center where I see a more
current version of the phone I just bought for $1000 US... not I can't
return the phone I bought but man it just bothered me to have the
second best phone.
Chika shows up and she has not showered, she has not brushed her teeth.
Maybe that was because of the fact you can only shower 3 times a week
in Bejing, water shortage.. or... she is not into me.. again I ignore
this.. average looking blokes have to.. girls don't just fall for guys
like me.. we have to win there hearts...
So we catch a Taxi and drop off a video she did for a professor and
then head to her favorite place to walk. In the cab ride over.. she
says the worst thing any girl can say to a man...
"just friends"
Why don't you girls just take a knife and kill us because it was like
the world started to crack around me and then shatter.... and the thing
is you have to smile and pretend it was always just friends when
secretly all you want is to get wasted and end up fucking some girl..
it is how men deal with things.. it is how I use to... not anymore..
tired of the 6 month wait to see if I caught the HIV from some drunken
escapade on a pool table in a Vancouver hostile.
So we finally get to this place and I am trying to put on a brave
face.. we start walking and her English is average at best... and the
whole time I just want to pull her in close and kiss her even with her
stinky breath.. and you have to understand Chinese woman eat chickens
feat.. so for me to want to kiss her chicken feat eating mouth..she
must be some kind of..
Unfortuanelty the feeling is one sided as we start to get past the
surface details. It is something I am good at I guess. Truth is I have
never really been good at the whole casual conversation thing. I just
can't relax around people..
First she says she has never kissed a boy but has kissed a girl and her
favorite show is Queer eye for the straight guy... She is actually
grossed out by the idea of kissing a guy... then I start talking of TJ
this black American girl I dated and she is getting excited..
Then it hits me... out of the 1.5 billion people in China, out of the 700 million woman... I find the hot lesbian...
And.. I have no answer for that... there is no come back.. my ego just is not big enough to think I can turn her straight...
Nothing in life teaches us to deal with that scenario.. so if you are
ever in China and are a lesbian... I can hook you up with the most
amazing girl...
