situation had been tensed and less than ideal, Jennifer had fallen asleep almost immediately after taking a shower. The hot spring water, the champagne, her three orgasms, the full body massage, and the stress provoked by Bruce’s fury had completely exhausted her.
That night, she slept like a baby – a deep and regenerating sleep that fully recharged her empty batteries. The first thing she did upon waking up was take her cell phone to check if Bruce had sent her a message; but, not surprisingly, he hadn’t.
She called the reception and asked if Bruce Wilson was in any room in the hotel. After checking, the clerk told her that Bruce was still in the hotel, two floors below her. She hung up and immediately called his room.
“Yes, what is it?” Bruce answered with a sleepy voice. He sounded drunk.
“Baby, it’s me. Are you okay?” Jennifer asked with a genuinely concerned voice. “What did you do last night? Nothing crazy I hope?”
She heard him yawning and exhaling loudly. He really sounded tired. “No, nothing crazy. I called a taxi and met Kenichi in a club. It was really fun...”
“A club? What kind of club? Were there girls over there?” Jennifer asked, slightly worried.
“Of course there were girls! You think I went to a gay club or what?”
Jennifer sounded irritated. “That’s not what I mean, Bruce. I’m not talking about customers. I’m talking about professionals – escort girls, if you like.”
“Yes, probably. There were a dozen very charming ladies at our table but I didn’t ask what they did for a living.”
“No need to be sarcastic, Bruce. I don’t need to ask you if you’re alone right now, do I?”
“What?”
“Bruce, are you still drunk? Is there anyone in bed with you right now?”
She heard the bed sheets rustling as Bruce probably moved to look around. “Yes, there is.”
Jennifer’s heart was racing. You bastard! How dare you do this to me?
“You’ve got some nerves, Bruce! I’m coming right now! Don’t even try to make her leave before I arrive! I hate you!”
Jennifer hung up the phone and grabbed a bathrobe. She slammed the door behind her and rushed to the elevator, feet bare. She pressed the button frenetically hoping the elevator would come faster. Frustrated to wait, she finally turned around and raced down the stairs, two floors below.
When she found Bruce’s room, she banged at the door, short of breath and screaming. “Bruce! Open the door! Bruce, open immediately!”
She heard someone walking towards the door and opening it. Bruce was in underwear, looking sleepy and his hair was messy. “Jen, stop screaming you...”
Jennifer pushed him aside and rushed inside the bedroom. “Out of the way! Where is she? Where is that whore?”
To her surprise, she didn’t see any sex worker – actually, she didn’t see any woman at all. Instead, June – still in uniform – was lying on the bed, apparently half-asleep, as well.
He looked at Jennifer with surprise. “Are you calling me a whore, khun Jennifer? I know a lot of Thai men are gay, but hey! I’m not, okay? I didn’t sleep with your husband – I swear!”
Jennifer heaved a sigh of relief as her hands covered her face. “Oh my God, it’s you June! I’m so confused!”
She turned to look at Bruce. “What the hell? There are no girls with you. Why did you scare me like that? What’s wrong with you?”
Bruce put his finger on his lips to tell Jennifer to lower her voice. “Ssshh... easy princess!”
Then, he simply shrugged. “You asked me if there was anybody with me. Yes, there is! YOU concluded it was a woman...”
Jennifer rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. “Fine... so tell me what happened – how did you guys end up in the same bed?”
“I was too drunk last night, and Kenichi told June to drive me back. Taxi drivers can be tricky sometimes, especially when they see a drunken foreigner.”
“Oh yeah, I heard about that, definitely. That’s very thoughtful of
