My third roommate, the Yabba (Craxk) Lady
was a tough cookie to stay with.
by Chiang Mai Kelly
She's a Pitchit lady just a little bit
shady. A semi good looker but the fast life took her to a place of no
return where the young age quickly and the old get old quicker.
Ya, I knew
her when she was 19. Just a kid raking in the cash. Good body,
good stamina up for some fun. If she wanted two men she took
three. A high rolling Farang grabbed her and she had twins. He
bought her a house and a car. The twins, cute girls, took her
body. She was taking everything in town which included most of the
male members of Princess's family. Everybody did Tip.
Somewhere along the line she found Ya Ba. At
23 years of age she was at my front door. I saw her as I approached to
answer her knock.
I said, “Oh my”, out loud. This was going to
be interesting. Princess liked her but didn't trust her. I would not
recommend her for a job because crack whores are not normally good
employees. At 23 her breasts sagged and her stomach was a road map of
the LA expressway system. I'd have to be crazy to take this woman in.
But that's what I did. Tip would fuck me for 100 baht. I know because
she did back in the days when she had a better body.
So there I was, three woman who I knew in a
biblical sense and wouldn't loose an hours sleep if I never saw any of
them again.
One night of love ain't worth six nights
alone. The three of them standing next to my bed shivering when they
aren't really cold and jumping on top of me treating me like I was
gold. Right or wrong a woman can own any man. And three of them even
melt the ice in my heart.
One night of love ain't worth six nights alone
but I'd rather have one than none because after all I'm flesh and bone.
The trouble was starting. BB was OK she just
went along with everything. Princess was trying to be the mayor of our
little village and Tip was walking Beach road. They called her coconut
lady.
I took them to the clinic and got a quantity
discount and had them checked out, the 500 baht special because condoms
were something that fell by the wayside among the ya ba and ya ice and
booze.
No one told me they loved me. No body called
me darling.
We got up around noon. Princess cooked lunch
and then the three ladies began to do hair, and make up and iron
clothes. BB left first most days. Tip around 5 PM and Princess and I
headed by Song Tau to Soi Chiapoon to eat. After dinner we walked
across the street to Noi's bar. She knew all the working ladies there
so no chance of me scoring a bit on the side. Washing machine Roy
showed up with “little flower” and we traded rounds.
Soi BuaKhow is never dull. Just watching the
street action is like going to a B movie.
After a polite drink or two at Noi bar a short
walk leads to the back of New Pattaya Plaza. Cheap beer. Cheap women.
Cheap music. The walk sobers us up a bit. More food on the way. The
Scottish contingent is in residence at New Pattaya Plaza. I really get
only 10% of what they are saying but they are fun guys.
Princess eventually gets a phone call. Tip
scored or BB found a big tipper and the first bottle is on them. A Song
Tau from Pattaya plaza to Pattaya Tai (First road) is 20 baht each and
another up First road to Chaam Issan (Thai club) is 20 baht.
Pattaya is an easy city to find your way
around. Starting with the ocean there is Beach road, one end of Beach
road is Walking street the other Naklua. One road away from the beach
is Second road. Then further away Soi BuaKhow and then Third road and
Sukhumvit Road. Crossing those roads running South to North is Pattaya
Tai(First), Central Road (Pattaya Klang) and Pattaya Nua (North).
Street walkers on Beach road. 2nd Road
tourist bars. Soi BuaKhow ex pat bars. 3rd Road getting some Thai bars
and locals. Sukhumvit, buses North or South to Bangkok or Rayong and
anywhere else. Most buses stop and the three main roads, First, Central
and North. Song Taus ply all of those roads.
We ended up at 3rd and Pattaya Tai, a big Thai
night club. They had a name entertainer singing later (TV Star and the
place was filling up).
The normal drill is meet the host and get a
table. It was at first myself and Princess to be joined by Tip and BB.
That meant a quart of Thai whiskey buckets of ice and soda and coke as
mixers. All in all, about 1000 baht to get three women drunk. The
expensive part are the male dancers. Each singer has a back up dance
troupe. The dancers may be male or female, lots of dancing and singing
and costume changes and a couple of comics to make sure everyone knows
there is a Farang in the audience.
Kelly, and three hookers in a Thai club. An
Issan club. If you think Thailand ain't Kansas, an Issan club in
Thailand with three drunk drugged up hookers really isn't Kansas.
