Wild One (3)

 Here is one of few stories about my stranger danger experience, before I start diving into my current life long relationship with my hubby. In short, I was young, single, and very stupid, apparently.

Stranger 3

This time, I was crushing very very hard over my taken guy bestie, so I try to date other people so I can get over him. Fortunately for me, I was introduced to a senior from the architecture faculty, but our first encounter with each other wasn't pleasant. He thought I was clumsy and I thought he's snobbish. Like really. But as we hung out more (not on purpose), we slowly got attracted to each other.

So, one day, he invited me out on a date. Being 'clumsy' me, I said yes without even asking where we're going. I assumed we're going to the mall or something. So, the rule of our ever-so-strict campus is that a vehicle cannot have a girl and a guy in it together unless it's a group. So, I have to walk out of the campus myself, so he can pick me up outside, in what I assumed a car, without the guard catching us. Naughty naughty...

While waiting for him nervously, he came on his SUPERBIKE!! FYI, I was NOT comfortable riding a motorcycle, because I have big boobs and I'm scared of falling down. But, despite all that, I know that he loved his bike, and also, he's already here, and it was a hot afternoon, so waiting in the sun was already semi melting my make up. So, I just hopped on. He told me to hold his waist for safety, so, I literally did, holding at the side of his waist and try to avoid having my boobs rubbing on his back. I asked him where we're going, and his reply, "to my secret place, a place only I know". As sweet as that sound, I was already scared. I did not think this through.

While on our way to this place, he would occasionally pull my arms to hug his waist, having my boobs rubbing his back (I doubt that was his intention, but I really felt uncomfortable). He would also sometimes caress my hand during traffic light stops, like a loving caress. At that time, I wasn't sure what it meant. I was that naive.

So, then we arrived at this 'secret place' he claimed. It was a large hill by a Buddhist temple, in the middle of nowhere. I was already planning my escape in my head, but I really wanted to trust this sweet man. He pulled my hand and we entered a large dark cave. I prayed so hard that I don't get murdered and go missing because I didn't get to tell anybody where I was because I didn't know where we're going in the first place!

While all of these went through my head, we went through the cave, and there it was a beautiful hidden Chinese garden. The cave was actually a tunnel to this place. He then started to tell me that this was the special place that he found recently and wanted to come here with a special woman. I felt so guilty and touched at the same time. All the doubt I have on him melted away. We walked around the garden, and it was romantic. 

Of course, at the end of the day, I went and meet up my guy bestie, and told him about my day, and for obvious reasons, I got lectured again, about stranger danger, could get murdered and raped and dumped, and stuff. I agreed it was dangerous and reckless of me, but I'm glad the outcome was well. For a while, I forgot a little of my crush towards my guy bestie.

But all came crashing down when the biker guy forcefully asked for a kiss and I refused and he called me a coward after that. I was shocked and heartbroken, but also was grateful that I wasn't really in love with this guy, but I was gonna, thought...... meh.

p.s: guy bestie is my now hubby.
