BANGING AROUND BANGKOK

“You’re a luk-kung, aren’t you?” she queered. “Yes.” I replied. “My dad’s an American and my Mom comes from the south of Thailand.” She told me how much she admired my beauty, especially my “perfectly long” nose. Thais have a fascination with children from mixed marriages, and I was well used to the attention my exotic looks received. Being a luk- kung I am bigger than most true Thais. I must have inherited my body type from my father’s American side of the family and my facial features, hair and skin color from my mother’s Southern Thai roots. I stand five foot ten inches tall in my bare feet, and I am “lucky” to measure out at 37-22-35. My hair is reddish-brown and falls more than half way down my back to my firm butt. My skin is a color the Thais call keow, green. When I spend the day at the beach the sun turns it to an olive sheen that even I find arousing to look at.

I immediately felt a strong attraction to Noi and her straightforward approach. As the waiter passed by I asked her what she would care to drink and she asked for a shot of Tequila. I ordered another Jaegermiester for myself and then moved closer to my newfound friend. As we gossiped about the scene we were watching unfold in the disco I came to realize that I had found a real gem, in every sense.

The waiter arrived with our shots, I paid and tipped him, and he disappeared into the sea of dancers. Noi said she would like to propose a toast to her “new girl friend” but that she didn’t yet know my name. I told her my farang, Western, name was Caitlin, but my friends called me Meow. I then in turn asked her what her friends called her. Having gotten acquainted she picked up the lime she had been given with her Tequila, gave me a coy look, and rubbed the cool citrus against the swell of my cleavage. She then sprinkled some salt onto the lime juice and raised her glass in a gesture of camaraderie. I took my Jaegermiester in hand and waited for what I knew would be her next move.
She leaned closer, wrapped her supple fingers gently around my neck, and drew us together.
