Last night in Sephan Kwai
Went to visit my regular bar in Sephan Kwai last night. To my disappointment, there were not too many girls working. After 1 beer I decided to explore a little. Across the street I went and headed back into an old haunt of mine called Harlim. To my surprise and relief, the Moma that was there before had moved on. Thank god since she was always asking me to loan her money. Anyways, the place looked alive and kicking with new talent. My eyes focused on a Japanese looking little bird dancing on stage. She looked about 19 or 20. I requested the Moma to bring her over after her set.
When she sat down, I could not believe my eyes. She was right out of one of those Japanese porn shoots. It turns out her name was Ploy Sai, 19 year old and surprisingly from Myanmar. Obviously a fake name. After some chit chat and a few beers later, I took the plunge and bar fined her. So here's the details of my bill. 2 large size Heinikens, total 300 Baht. Not one lady drink, and no bar fine. I paid the bar the 1,800 Baht short time rate up front, which is the norm in the Thai places, and off I went hand in hand with my little porn star. I arrived at my condo about 10 minutes away by taxi and hit the head. After I was finished, my little porn star was already naked and spread eagled on the bed rubbing herself. What a diamond in the ruff. Let's just say, I spent one of the best 2 hours of my mongering career. Tipped her an extra 2,000 Baht for a performance well deserved and called her a Grab taxi.
