John has changed...
Yesterday I met Maria and Genie for lunch. As far as they were aware, we were supposed to take a walk through Zara, as earlier in the week I had been there with Genie for her to return something, and I mentioned in passing I wanted to check out the menswear. But we were supposed to go on Wednesday, and since that didn't happen, I went by myself on Wednesday.
So now I had a plan to surprise them by buying them lunch; in particular the baguettes that Victoria had introduced me to. I told them to meet me at the fountain "lunchless" and when they told me they were leaving the office, I went off to buy the baguettes. I half expected to see Victoria there but didn't. I got three baguettes and three cans of drinks and took it to the fountain.
I saw them and surprised them with it. Maria said she thought I wanted to check out Zara and I told her I already did that the day before. They were pleasantly surprised by the lunch, and not only that, they actually enjoyed it as we sat on the grass eating it. To be honest, I didn't really like sitting on the grass in my suit, but Genie seems to like it. I would've preferred to sit on a bench.
As we sat, ate and talked, I imagined myself ravaging Maria right there and then. She looked quite attractive sitting there on the grass. But on a serious note, my interest in her seemed to have diminished somewhat after meeting Victoria.
She surprised me at the end by giving me a brown paper bag containing three macaroons. I suggested we each have one but they refused. I ate them back in the office and they were sooo nice, because I hadn't had macaroons for a while.
After work I went home and drove out to Canley Vale to meet with John and library guy. We were to meet at the hotel, and upon walking in, I saw John at the bar. At first I was glad to see him and greeted him. It turned out he was in the process of ordering a whole tray of drinks. He walked away when the waiter called him back, and he didn't even know until I told library guy to get him - John hadn't yet paid for his drinks. That was when I noticed his eyes were red and he was already drunk.
Turned out John had two other friends there - a guy called Dang (real estate agent) and a guy called 'Doic' or something, who was a lawyer. He looked kinda young, and I heard him say something about it being his second year, so I assumed he was relatively junior.
John started talking about this Korean girl, and showed me her photo on Kakaotalk. He obviously got it just for her. It seemed like he was trying to chat her up and meet her outside of work. That worried me. It was one thing for John to b married and visit brothels, but it was another thing to start having a thing on the side. I was actually hoping he'd stop the whole brothel thing since the birth of his daughter, but nope.
He even said he just recently came back from Vietnam, where he obviously had a bit of fun. He also said he was planning to go to Hong Kong in June, where he was planning to have some fun. He mentioned going to Doic's office later to "party". I wasn't sure what that meant. In hindsight, I wonder if it was drugs.
Dang left after a bit, and for some reason John insisted library guy and I order our food first. So when we were lining up, I got to catch up a bit with library guy. He has a second baby coming along. I mentioned a bit about Victoria to him. I noticed the girl taking our order was a little attractive, and maybe it's just me, but she seemed to give me a second look. When we got back, I started talking about the bar to them, in the hope that they would brief me in the future. That was the whole point of coming out here, right?
Later on, as library guy and I were into our meals, John and Doic went to order. A pizza came back which they shared. The waitress I had seen earlier seemed eager to come get my plate and took a glance at me as she did so.
Library guy half joked that John was being a bad influence on Doic, and I agreed. It was really a shame that he was being shaped by John. As I sat there listening to John talk about running a law firm, I realised I could learn a lot from him, but I no longer really liked him as a person. I just found it hard to respect someone cheating on his wife.
I was pretty glad to get out of there afterwards, and even more glad that there were no 'extra curricular'
activities. Although as I drove off, thoughts of going whoring did cross my mind, but I told myself to just go home and text the girl I had been chatting to recently who I met from Oasis.
