Sailor Falls In Lust And Then In Love With A Real Princess In This True Story
Did you ever make a decision, and then wondered if it was right? Sometimes fate gives you unexpected surprises when you least expect it.
At the time, I was kind of down in the dumps. I had just called off a year long engagement and I just didn't have that usual bubble.
We were about to head home, and then, something happened, that would at least prove fantastic for me. There was, lets say, a military threat to Thailand at the time, and an American US Naval presence was warranted.
We rushed to Pattaya Beach at full speed, a resort town, for the "Super Rich", that normally would not be a Port O' Call for any warship. But, at the time, it was just another day for me. I just wasn't in the mood to celebrate.
I was thinking. "A year engaged to the same girl, I got so accustomed to her, but now I would have to start all over again."
No, I really didn't want to start that dating stuff again.
I thought. "I just want to hide away some where from the World for a while."
We steamed into Pattaya, and my friend Kevin asked. "What are your plans for Pattaya Beach?"
I said. "I don't know Kevin, I really haven't given it any thought."
Kevin then said. "I'm going to try and buy a stone for my wife. I heard that they have some good values there."
I laughed and said to Kevin. "Stones. Is that what you're going to do with the remains of the family fortune?"
Kevins family had almost of their money invested in what they thought was a very safe Utility Company, that latter became better known as "Three Mile Island".
He laughed, and said. "I think they would rather sink more money into "Three Mile Island", then to trust me with the rest of the family fortune. They know I would spend it all."
I said. "Okay Kevin, I will check out the stones with you, but lets not go anywhere where there are women, I'm just not in the mood."
Kevin said. "Thats easy for me, I've been avoiding women since I got married."
I said. "Well, you have the knack Kevin. You went to an girls College with your billionaire friend. Only two guys in that entire College. You must have developed a technique over all those years to ignore women when you wanted to. You got your journalism degree, so you must have been focused at least at times."
"I focused every once in a while." Kevin said laughing.
I said. "Yeah, thats what I have to do, get focused. I just wish I knew what to focus on."
Kevin said. "Okay, no women. But how bout some of that Thai beer?"
I said. "Allright. But I'm only having one. That stuff only comes in quart bottles."
So, the ship pulls into Pattaya, and I and Kevin think we are just going to check out some stones and have some Thai beer. But of course that story takes a very strange turn. We pick out a store, and Kevin doesn't like any of the stones.
The girl says. "Wait. I have more stones upstairs that I will bring down."
So while we are waiting, I and Kevin start talking about the current comedy routine that we were working on. Now, there is this girl behind us, that we can't see. She's looking at something else in the store. What we don't know, is that she can hear every word that were saying. Now, I and Kevin are just going on and on.
Now this girl is trying to be polite, so she's doubled up with pain trying not to laugh. Then I guess she got to the point where she could no longer stand. But, like I say, we don't know about any of this.
You have to understand that in this part of the Orient its not polite for people to laugh at other people. People are also somewhat guarded with their opinions and feelings for others. There is a certain protocol that all abide by. So, if we were of that culture, we could be offended by someone laughing at our conversation.
Now the girl returns from upstairs with the stones, and notices that this girl is laying on the floor gagging.
She yells. "Help."
We run over and it appears to me as if the girl is trying to talk, but she can't. Her face seems all flush and red, as if she's having a high blood pressure attack or something.
The girl from the store than yells to me and says. "Give her mouth to mouth."
I gave her mouth to mouth, and then she seemed to revive. Now she starts to talk.
She explains. "I am fine, I just had a laughing fit."
Kevin then says to her. "What were you laughing about?"
Then she explained. "I overheard heard your conversation and I was afraid that you would think that I was rude if I laughed. So, I tried to hold back from laughing. But the two of you just kept getting funnier and funnier. So finally, I fell to the floor doubled up with pain from trying not to laugh."
I looked at Kevin and said. "Wow, its not just sailors that find us funny."
Kevin said. "Gee. I thought all those guys that said they were laughing so much, that they got sick to their stomachs were just putting us on."
I said damn Kevin. "You could get people sea sick on land."
Now she starts laughing again, but she's not trying to hide it. She thanks me for saving her life, after I and Kevin, almost killed her with our comedy routine.
She says. "Come with me. I know where you can get the stones you want."
She ushers us into this waiting limo with a driver standing there to open the door for her.
She says to the driver. "They are my friends."
Then she tells him where to drive to.
So, I'm thinking. "Well she rented a limo for the day. But I wondered why the driver kept calling her Princess. But I thought maybe he calls all the pretty girls Princess."
We get to the store. Kevin finds a stone he likes. Then the girl quotes him a price. While he's thinking about the price, the girl were with whispers in the shopkeepers ear, and then the shopkeeper quotes Kevin, half that price.
Kevin says. "Its a deal."
We leave the shop and get back into the limo.
Kevin says. "Where are we going?"
She says. "You two made me laugh again, so I want to take you home for dinner."
The limo stops, and I'm thinking. "This is home."
Its an incredible Mansion with an enormous swimming pool, and servants seem to be everywhere.
We have a great dinner and a great conversation. The vibes are unreal. We have a few after dinner drinks and then Kevin dozes off on the chair.
She laughs, and asks. "Did I put your friend to sleep?"
I laughed and said. "No its married life. Ever since he got married, he just can't seem to stay awake past midnight."
She then asks. "How bout a dip in the pool?"
I smiled and said. "Sounds refreshing, but I didn't bring a bathing suit with me."
She smiled and said. "Neither did I."
We headed to the pool, and it was quiet and tranquil there. As she removed her top, I couldn't help but stare at very endowed breasts.
I said."You have nice seized breasts for a Thai girl."
She smiled and said. "That's because I'm not a Thai girl. Didn't you notice that I never bow?"
Laughing I said. "I'm not the most observant kind of guy."
Smiling she said. "You just notice nice seized breasts. Do you like what you see?"
As she slid out of her skirt I said. "Oh yeah, that's the way I like it.
She ran her hands down my chest and said."You're very muscular. Do they make everyone in America like you?"
I laughed and said. "I was the last one they made like this."
That night, there was a full Moon out, and it was quite romantic.
We swam around the pool for a while and then embraced. It felt wonderful as her breasts pressed against my chest. As my hands slid down her shapely thighs, I started to lust with arousal. I had only known her for a short while, but it didn't seem that way.
I thought to myself. "Is it all the booze I had thats giving me this dreamy feeling?"
As I felt her hands start to slide down my waste, I realized that she wanted to do moore than just smooch.
Then, I thought. "She's very wealthy. Could I just be a toy for her to amuse herself with for a night?"
I gazed into her eyes for an answer, but I could only feel her sweet lips.
And at last, I said to myself. "Stop being so analytical and enjoy the moment."
She said. "Its very dangerous here for you. The North Vietnamese have crossed the Cambodian border and are headed this way."
I touched her hand and said. "I know its dangerous. Thats why I'm here. We want to make sure they don't cross into Thailand. Dont worry I can be your hero baby."
As the night went into day, so to did the pain of my broken engagement dissipate. She was just what the doctor ordered. Our passion sizzled for the entire two weeks we were there. But the last night was so hard.
I had to tell her. "Our ship is leaving in the morning."
She said. "No don't leave me. You can have anything you want if you stay with me. Can't you see that I've fallen in love with you? I can think of nothing but you and I need you.
I was tempted, I was very tempted, she was beautiful, she was wealthy and she was brilliant.
But I had a duty, and I knew it would be wrong to stay. But oh, how I wanted to. To shirk all my responsibility, was just so tempting. To this day I wonder if I threw away a trump card that fate had dealt me. Were we meant to be, happily ever after, or were we just both an interlude, that we both needed at the time?
I went back to the ship that morning and just before we pulled out, there was a phone call for me. I asked. "Who is on the phone?"
I was told it was some girl claiming to be a Princess.
I said. "What? A Princess."
I'm thinking. "Why would a Princess want to talk to me?"
Then I thought. "Ah, someone's playing a joke on me. I picked up the phone and said, King Henry here."
And then I heard the voice say. "Why are you joking? I am very sad, and I called to say goodbye and to thank you for the most wonderful two weeks, I ever had in my life."
I said. "I'm sorry, I thought you were the one joking. They told me I had a call from a Princess."
She said. "Yes. Thats me. I'm a Princess."
I asked. "Are you telling me that I spent the last two weeks with a Princess?"
She said. "Yes. Who did you think I was?
I said. "But you said you weren't a Thai."
She said. "Thailand is not the only country where Princess's come from. If you change your mind, you know where I will be."
I laughed, and said to her. "Well if you ever come to America and you want to find me, check all the mental wards, I'm seriously thinking of having myself committed, just as soon as were stateside again."
