We woke up the next day just in time to go for the buffet breakfast. Part of me was actually wondering if Shirlyn had really planned this staycation of sorts for her other guy, or was it merely a ruse to be with me. She could definitely afford it, but it didn’t make any sense spending 2 to 3 hundreds on a single night hotel to be with a guy you didn’t really know. But ultimately it didn’t really matter. She got to have me, as well as the other guy, and she also got the hugs she wanted. She seemed happy so why should I even bother about the reasons?
I sent her home after checking out and headed back home to find Kate in the kitchen wearing just an oversized t-shirt.
K: Oh hello.
Me: Ah. You spent the night?
K: Duh. You better be careful. I might steal your girl. Hahahaha.
Me: Right.
K: So how was your night?
Me: What do you mean?
K: You spent it with Shirlyn right?
Me: Yes?
K: Strange. I thought you’d be like crawling home or something. Jasmine was saying that she thinks Shirlyn is super horny these days. Not sure what’s up with her. We kinda expected her to devour you.
Me: Right. We had sex once.
K: Once only? Few hours?
Me: Maybe 15 minutes?
K: What? Wow. I eat pussy for longer than that.
Me: So do I.
K: Ya right.
Me: It wasn’t all about the sex. We cuddled and stuff.
K: Oh. You’re that kind of guy.
Me: Huh?
K: The sensitive type. Haha. Rare breed. No wonder she likes even though you cum so fast. Hahaha.
Me: Very funny.
K: Aren’t you worried?
Me: About?
K: She’s going to fall for you.
Me: She probably already has.
K: Huh?
Me: Alicia too.
K: Really?
Me: I think so.
K: Maybe stop cuddling so much?
Me: They like it.
K: Do you?
Me: It’s ok I guess.
K: Well, to each his own. I just hope you know what you’re doing. Sometimes you really need to just fuck and forget. Can’t be good to have so many girls falling for you. Especially if you’re going to be with Jasmine.
Me: I know.
K: Good then. Now go and fuck her. Hahaha.
Me: What?
K: I don’t have a real dick. There’s a limit to what I can do.
Me: I’ve seen your strap-on.
K: Not the same. Sometimes I do wonder what a real dick would feel like inside of me.
Me: How do you know Jasmine wants to be fucked?
K: Hahahaha. Cos she screamed your name when she came.
Me: What…
K: I burst out laughing. Couldn’t stop myself. Then she realised it wasn’t you.
Me: Were you using the strap-on?
K: No. Just my mouth and fingers.
Me: Right.
K: Strap-on she’d know it wasn’t you. Hahahaha.
Me: Yeah. Your strap-on is too big.
K: Which means your skills are top-notch. Or at least as good as mine.
Me: I think I’m decent.
K: Wanna put that to the test?
Me: Not really.
K: You don’t even know what I have in mind.
Me: I’m getting slightly concerned.
K: You know I got aroused sucking your cock right?
Me: I knew it.
K: What?
Me: You want me to fuck you.
K: I’ve considered it. Haha. But I haven’t asked Jasmine yet.
Me: I’ll politely decline.
K: Awwwww…
Me: Seriously, why though?
K: Try only la. I’m damn sure I’ll still prefer girls at the end of it.
Me: Right. Then you can ask any other guy. Why me?
K: Why not? You’re the most convenient.
Me: Knew it.
K: And based on what they say, you always try your best. Hahahahaha.
Me: Right.
K: Plus I trust you I guess?
Me: That’s not a very good reason.
K: Still. I’ll ask Jasmine when she wakes up. Hahahaha.
Me: Does Jasmine prefer girls now?
K: No. Trust me.
Me: I seem to be having more sex with others instead of her.
K: She’s just exploring the other side. It’s normal. Even Rebecca is exploring. You can explore too.
Me: Explore my other side? You mean with a guy?
K: Actually I was referring to Rebecca. But if you swing the other way…
Me: God no.
K: No to guys or Rebecca.
Me: Both.
K: You rejected her so many times. She can’t figure out why. Either you’re gay or she’s not that appealing. If only she knows the truth, that you’re the stud that’s pleasuring two girls in the office. And I’ve also verified that your cock is working just fine.
Me: Well, she’s not that appealing to me.
K: You’re a strange guy then. Of all the girls in the office, I’d gone for Rebecca first. If I was a guy anyway. Then Jasmine, Shirlyn, Cheryl and Joan.
Me: And you did. Sort of.
K: Yup. She’s actually pretty docile in bed. Jasmine is actually quite domineering. And Shirlyn’s boobs. Wow. You lucky guy. I want more of that.
Me: I don’t need to know.
K: Weren’t you with her last night?
Me: I was.
K: So you’re not able to perform now?
Me: Eh… seriously… what do you want?
K: I want to see if I really was aroused because I was sucking your cock.
Me: Can we just take it as a yes?
K: I need verification. Science experiment.
Me: I’m not horny.
K: Aww…. You’re not attracted by me?
Me: It’s different yeah.
Suddenly she removed her t-shirt.
Me: Hey….
K: Notice anything?
Me: Erm.
K: Ok la. Maybe you didn’t notice before but I used to bind my chest.
Me: Ah..that I did notice.
K: I stopped.
She cupped her boobs and jiggled them.
K: See! Not so small after all right?
Me: Oh ya. Your hair is longer too. You’re trying to be more feminine?
K: Maybe. Haha.
Me: Please put your clothes back on.
Kate moved closer to me and stroked my arm.
K: Doesn’t the sight of a naked woman turn you on?
She grabbed my crotch.
K: Ah. Ok. Guess not. Haha.
The bedroom door opened.
J: You two are too noisy.
K: Sorry.
J: Why are you naked? Trying to tempt him?
K: Yeah. Sorry. Should have asked first.
J: Oh no worries. Go ahead. This I wanna see.
Me: Jasmine!
I looked at her, shaking my head.
J: Look, I think she trying to see if she’s bi instead of les. I think this is a safe environment for her to explore her sexuality.
Me: Right.
J: And you’re too nice to turn her down.
Me: Well…
J: And I really wanna watch.
Me: I need to shower first.
Jasmine took me by the hand and turned to Kate.
J: I’ll warm him up for you.
She practically dragged me to the bathroom and ripped off my clothes, grabbing my dick and wanking it as she pushed me into the shower.
Me: Can I not?
She placed her finger on my lips.
J: Do it for me baby.
I probably should have cringed. And this was probably a situation where I should have taken Jason’s advice and exerted my dominance. But somehow, all I wanted to do was fulfil Jasmine’s every desire.
She soaped me up, rinsed me, then dried me, pushing me out onto the bed.
J: There. All clean.
Me: Erm.
K: Lie down.
I did as I was told and Kate got between my legs, picking up the cocktail sausage with her thumb and index finger, pulling back the foreskin. I felt her tongue swirling around, before she wrapped her lips around it, and started tracing the alphabet again. Her other hand grabbed at my balls, but I flinched slightly so she probably realised she used too much strength.
My fully hard dick popped out of her mouth with a loud slurp and she wanked me slowly, while running her fingertips around my balls.
Me: Ok. Test succeeded. You got me hard.
Kate laughed.
K: The test was to see if I got wet. And…
She reached down and slid a finger in, moved it around in circles before withdrawing it.
K: I don’t fucking believe this.
She showed us her finger. The sheen around it confirmed that she had indeed gotten herself wet from sucking my dick.
K: Wow.
Jasmine smiled. It looked evil to me.
J: So, what do you want to do next?
I looked at Jasmine and shook my head again. Kate was a virgin. She really shouldn’t be egging her on like this. Jasmine’s behaviour seemed extremely out of character from what I knew of her. Then again, maybe I didn’t really know her that well after all. While I’ve had tons of sex with different women, I generally tended to stay away from virgins. Not because they were inexperienced or anything, but more of I didn’t want their first time to be with someone like me. Surely they deserved better.
But despite all that, I was still hard as a rock. If only I could will myself to lose my erection, then not even get hard even when I’m being teased sexually, like the way I did with Amanda initially.
Kate absentmindedly stroked my hard cock.
K: I’m really surprised. Wasn’t expecting this.
J: Like what? Sucking cock? Getting wet?
K: Pleasuring a guy. The way it grew in my mouth. The way he moans when I do something right…
J: I told you the last time that you really were aroused by it
K: Yeah I guess you’re right then?
J: So what do you want to do now?
K: I think I’ll stop. Have satisfied my curiosity.
Me: Thank goodness.
J: Really.
K: I don’t think I’m ready right now. Maybe next time we’ll see how.
Me: Not with me. I’m unavailable. Your first time should be special.
K: Yeah. I guess so. Haha. You’re such a weirdo.
J: I agree.
K: Any other guy would probably try to convince me to carry on.
She flicked my cock and I flinched.
K: Probably say something cheesy like you’ve made me hard now you gotta do something about it. Hahahaha.
Me: I don’t think I’ll say that.
J: Yeah. He probably wouldn’t.
K: He does have a nice personality to go with his nice cock though.
Me: Erm, thanks?
K: Maybe you girls should stop treating him like some piece of meat.
Me: That’s a very good idea.
J: Well… he’s my piece of meat now.
She grabbed my rod and sat on it. She was surprisingly wet despite only watching Kate give me a blowjob.
J: Ah…. It feels so good to have this in me again.
K: You two are pretty weird.
Kate put on her t-shirt again and sat by the side of the bed watching Jasmine ride me.
K: Don’t mind me. Maybe I can get some tips on how to fuck a guy if I ever wanted to in the future. Haha.
Me: You could watch porn.
K: This is more fun though. Live action.
Me: Didn’t your brother make you watch last time?
K: I guess I was too young to appreciate it. Hahaha.
Me: Right.
J: Let her watch la. At least she isn’t sitting on your face.
K: What?
J: You haven’t tried his oral skills right?
K: Hahahahaha. I’ll take your word for it that he’s good.
J: I don’t know many guys who’s as willing as him.
K: Then you probably should hang on to him as long as you can.
J: That’s my intention.
Me: And maybe don’t share me with your friends?
J: I’ll stop when we’re married.
K: You better. I’m sure there are many girls out there who want him.
J: I know there are. I can handle it.
K: If you’re not careful you may end up losing everything.
J: Nah. I know the risks.
I hoped she did. But I guess it was really my fault as I was really too accommodating to her, to all of them in fact.
She rode me harder as I caressed her breasts. Kate went up beside her with one of her toys. She turned it on and I heard the unmistakable hum of the vibrator. She placed it on Jasmine’s clit. It was so strong that even I could feel the vibrations running through all the way to my balls.
J: Woah…
The intensity of the vibrator caused Jasmine to lean forward, pressing her clit against it. I tried thrusting my hips upwards but it proved a little difficult to do and I slipped out. She grabbed me and stuck it in again, riding away as Kate held the vibrator in place.I could see the beads of sweat forming on her neck and rolling down her chest. A few more minutes of riding and she got off, rolled over and lay on the bed.
J: Ok. That’s really intense.
I got up and positioned myself between her legs but she stopped me.
J: It’s ok. You don’t have to fuck me.
Me: Why?
J: I’m still trembling. Too intense.
Me: Oh.
K: Eat her out.
Kate nudged my head down and handed me the vibrator.
J: I’m quite done actually.
K: I wanna see how he does it.
J: Oh. Ok then.
K: Use the vibrator please. It’s what I do sometimes.
I selected the intensity and slid the vibrator in with ease as she was still very wet. She squirmed a little as I teased her clit with my tongue while thrusting the vibrator in and out of her. I watched as she trembled with each lick and soon enough, I brought her to orgasm again with the help of the vibrator.
K: Ok. He’s not bad.
J: Yeah. He is. You wanna try?
K: Nah. It was good enough watching you two.
Jasmine was already panting, trying to catch her breath.
J: I used toys before during sex. Why is it different this time?
K: Who knows?
J: I think I’ll be using toys more often from now on.
K: I’m sure you will.
Jasmine got up slowly and dragged me off to shower.
Me: Why are you doing this?
J: Doing what?
Me: Trying to get Kate to sleep with me.
J: Well, she’s curious.
Me: I don’t think she’s that curious.
J: You never know.
Me: Look, I’m ok if it’s Shirlyn, Nat, or anyone else I’ve been with before. But Kate is a virgin. I don’t think I should be her first.
J: What? I thought guys always wanted virgins.
Me: Not me.
J: Oh.
Me: Seems like we don’t really know each other that well.
J: Seems like it.
Me: I only want you to be happy.
J: And I want you to be happy too.
Me: How can we be happy like this?
J: I’m happy with what’s going on now. Are you?
Me: I’m happy. Could be happier if it wasn’t so complicated.
J: Well, it is what it is now.
Me: You can choose not to let me sleep with others you know.
J: Like I said, I want everyone to be happy in their own way. They want you, yet I have you. I don’t want to give you up completely to them. This is the only way I can think of. Don’t you want them to be happy too?
Me: I do.
J: So I guess we will continue until we stop?
Me: I guess so.
J: We might have a lot of problems at the end of this.
Me: Definitely.
J: Will you still be here with me when that happens?
Me: Of course I will.
Kate called out from outside.
K: You know I can hear everything right?
J: Yeah.
K: Want to know my opinion?
J: Sure.
K: Stop everything now. Either let him go, or tell the others to let him go. Make him yours only. Unless you really wanna be polygamous. Then… oh well. I have no idea.
J: You wanna get fucked by him?
Me: Hey…
K: Nah. If he wasn’t with you, and I was straight, maybe. I can see his appeal somehow.
J: So how do I tell the rest of them to give up? You should see how happy they are… it’s easier to give him up myself.
K: That’s for you to decide. We can only listen, and advise. We can’t take action on your behalf.
Me: I know I can stop seeing the others.
K: Question is, will you? Since it makes Jasmine happy.
J: You’re not monogamous.
K: Well… for me it’s a little different.
Me: It’s the same.
K: Not really. If I don’t stay over, like I just did, I’ll leave after I’m done. There’s no post-coital cuddling. Girls really like that you know?
Me: I know.
K: Therefore, when you do it, there’s this special bond with the girls.
Me: Erm…
J: So in conclusion, let’s just carry on until we get married. Then we’ll reevaluate the whole situation.
K: The way I see it, there’s really nothing wrong with this lifestyle choice if all parties are willing and happy.
Jasmine and I dried ourselves and came out of the bathroom. Kate was already dressed to leave.
K: I guess I’ll see both of you tomorrow at work then?
Me: Yeah.
Jasmine let her out of the house and came back to the room. She held my hand as we sat on the bed.
J: So how?
Me: I’m actually waiting for you to be unhappy with the situation.
J: What? Hahahahaha.
Me: I think we both have the same problem of placing other’s happiness above our own.
J: Maybe. But I really am happy now.
Me: Me too.
She leaned over to kiss me.
J: Thank you for being understanding.
We headed out shortly after to get food and strangely bumped into Darren and Nat at the coffeeshop. Nat as usual looked a little irritated. I wondered if it was because she was abandoned by Jason the night before. Something told me she wanted to ask Jasmine to borrow me for a couple of hours while Darren took care of the kids, but it didn’t happen.
On the way back, my phone rang. It was Jason.
J: Bro, are you free? I need to talk to you. In person.
I wondered what was going on. Did Jason find out I was over at his place last night and that I had somehow become close to his wife and now wanted to confront me about it? I highly doubted it though. Crystal seemed to be a pretty private person who somehow felt that Jason’s friends would keep her secrets as well as they kept his. And I doubt that I had said anything to Jason that would have made him suspicious of anything.
Me: Sure bro. When and where?
J: You remember how to get to my place? There’s a coffeeshop. Let me buy you an early dinner or something.
I glanced at my phone clock. It was almost 4pm.
Me: Too early to be eating dinner. I just ate lunch.
J: Well ok. Let me know what time you can make it so I can tell EoS.
Me: Ah?
J: I invited him too. Mini boy’s afternoon. Haha.
Me: Ok. Did you have to get permission from Crystal?
J: Yeah. I did. She’s ok. By the way, heard you got lobang for second-hand cars?
Me: I do. You got your license back?
J: Nope. Test on Friday. But no harm looking around right?
Me: In that case, why don’t I meet you at the dealership?
J: It’s still open?
Me: Closes at 5. But I can ask the boss to keep it open. If you’re really keen to buy..
J: Wah. Erm. I need to bring Crystal along. She has a say as well.
Me: Ok. See you there at 5 then?
J: You really asking the boss to wait?
Me: Why not?
J: Oh ok then. Text me the address.
I sent him the address.
I called Alan to see if he could stay open.
A: Yo. Been a long time.
Me: Yeah. Got a favour to ask.
A: Shoot.
Me: Dealerships open today right?
A: Yes? But closing at 5.
Me: Could you open a little longer? Bringing a friend over to look at cars.
A: Ah. Let me ask mom. She’s here today. I’m actually about to head off soon. Hang on.
I heard him call out to Ann.
A: Ok. Come anytime, she’ll stay open for you.
Me: Wow thanks.
A: She says you’ll owe her a dinner. I hope she really means dinner. Hahahahaha…
Me: Right.
A: Alright man. Catch you another time.
I called Jason back.
Me: Ok. They’ll be open.
J: Sweet. Could I get a lift? Haha. I wanted to ask EoS but I’m not sure if Crystal is ok with him or not.
I wondered why Crystal wouldn’t be ok.
Me: Sure. Pick you around 430 I guess.
I told Jasmine and she told me that she’ll settle her own dinner.
I washed up before heading to the car and back to Jason’s estate.
I wondered what was the actual thing Jason wanted to talk about.
I looked at Jasmine and shook my head again. Kate was a virgin. She really shouldn’t be egging her on like this. Jasmine’s behaviour seemed extremely out of character from what I knew of her. Then again, maybe I didn’t really know her that well after all. While I’ve had tons of sex with different women, I generally tended to stay away from virgins.

Me: Sure bro. When and where?
J: You remember how to get to my place? There’s a coffeeshop. Let me buy you an early dinner or something.
I glanced at my phone clock. It was almost 4pm.
Me: Too early to be eating dinner. I just ate lunch.
J: Well ok. Let me know what time you can make it so I can tell EoS.
Me: Ah?
J: I invited him too. Mini boy’s afternoon. Haha.
Me: Ok. Did you have to get permission from Crystal?
J: Yeah. I did. She’s ok. By the way, heard you got lobang for second-hand cars?
Me: I do. You got your license back?
J: Nope. Test on Friday. But no harm looking around right?
Me: In that case, why don’t I meet you at the dealership?
J: It’s still open?
Me: Closes at 5. But I can ask the boss to keep it open. If you’re really keen to buy..
J: Wah. Erm. I need to bring Crystal along. She has a say as well.
Me: Ok. See you there at 5 then?
J: You really asking the boss to wait?
Me: Why not?
J: Oh ok then. Text me the address.
I sent him the address.
I called Alan to see if he could stay open.
A: Yo. Been a long time.
Me: Yeah. Got a favour to ask.
A: Shoot.
Me: Dealerships open today right?
A: Yes? But closing at 5.
Me: Could you open a little longer? Bringing a friend over to look at cars.
A: Ah. Let me ask mom. She’s here today. I’m actually about to head off soon. Hang on.
I heard him call out to Ann.
A: Ok. Come anytime, she’ll stay open for you.
Me: Wow thanks.
A: She says you’ll owe her a dinner. I hope she really means dinner. Hahahahaha…
Me: Right.
A: Alright man. Catch you another time.
I called Jason back.
Me: Ok. They’ll be open.
J: Sweet. Could I get a lift? Haha. I wanted to ask EoS but I’m not sure if Crystal is ok with him or not.
I wondered why Crystal wouldn’t be ok.
Me: Sure. Pick you around 430 I guess.
I told Jasmine and she told me that she’ll settle her own dinner.
I washed up before heading to the car and back to Jason’s estate.
I wondered what was the actual thing Jason wanted to talk about.
I reached the pick up point slightly after 430pm. Jason and Crystal were already waiting there. I had to take a second look at Crystal as at first I thought she was wearing an absurdly short miniskirt. It turned out to be an extremely short romper. I don’t know who she was showing off her legs to, but it definitely got my attention somehow. It didn’t help that the romper seemed to be rather tight and was practically just showing off her curvy body.
Jason opened the back door for Crystal and waited for her to get in before closing it. Seems like his chauvinistic behaviour only existed when Crystal wasn’t around. I wondered if she knew.
He opened the front door and got in.
J: Hi bro. Thanks for the lift. You’ve met my wife before right?
Me: Yup.
C: Yes, we’ve met.
I don’t know why but Crystal had switched back to her fierce personality. It was very unlike last night when I experienced her gentle and somewhat vulnerable one as well.
I drove over to the dealership and we reached just before 5.
The lights were on but Ann was nowhere to be found. I asked Jason and Crystal to look around before heading to the office to look for Ann.
I found her inside the manager’s office.
A: Oh you’re here.
J: Yup.
She stood up, walked towards me and pulled me towards her, planting her lips on mine.
Me: Hey… don’t do that.
A: Haha! I was going for a friendly kiss.
Me: Didn’t feel friendly at all.
I wiped my lips with the back of my hand in case there was any lipstick there, and backed away from her towards the door.
A: Are you afraid of me now?
Me: A little?
A: You’re really fun to tease. I hope Jasmine’s been having a lot of fun with you.
Me: She is. Don’t worry.
A: Alright then. Let’s go see what your friend wants.
We headed out to the showroom area and saw Jason and Crystal admiring the Z4. The same Z4 that I had driven a couple of times before.
A: Like that car?
They looked up.
Me: Ann, this is Jason and Crystal.
Jason extended his hand and she shook it.
J: Yes. It’s a nice car.
A: Are you two intending to start a family? If so, this isn’t the car for you. Are you looking for a continental model?
J: I used to drive a Hyundai, so not really sure what I’m looking for actually.
C: We’re aren’t having kids. How much is the BMW?
A: For Mark’s friends… let’s see… COE till 2029. It’s listed for $91K. Best I can do is $85K.
Me: That sounds reasonable.
C: Do you have any convertibles, but with 4 seats?
A: Funny you should ask. I should be getting one in within the week.
C: What is it?
A: BMW 1 series. COE till 2029 as well.
Ann took out her phone and opened a document to check the details.
A: It’s black. 4 owners. Probably $70K?
C: That sounds good. Any pics?
Ann showed her some pics on her phone.
I pulled Jason aside.
Me: You buying the car or she’s buying?
J: I guess she is. Haha.
Me: You ok with a convertible? The driving position is not very comfortable.
J: Well, a car is a car. If she likes it, why not?
Me: Don’t you have a car you want?
J: Honestly? If I could afford it, I’d consider a Tesla.
Me: Oh. There are other electric vehicles on the market right?
J: Yeah. But the Tesla just seems cooler.
Me: Right. By the way is EoS coming?
J: Nah. Told him we’re gonna look at cars first. He said he’ll just join us for dinner.
Me: Oh. So you’re really considering the BMW?
J: I’d be happy with a normal sedan. No idea why Crystal is looking at convertibles.
Me: Maybe she feels it’s like a status symbol?
J: Is it?
Me: I don’t know. I drove a convertible before. It’s rather inconvenient.
Ann and Crystal came over.
C: The black BMW looks classy. I want that. $20K down payment, around $800+ a month.
J: You already did the sums?
C: Rough estimate.
Me: Can he even get his license back?
A: Oh he has no license?
J: Not yet. Test on Friday.
A: Ok. Do drop by after your test then. You can test drive the car if it’s in.
C: You’ll hold it for us?
A: Sure. You’re Mark’s friends.
They browsed around a while longer, looking at other cars.
After that we thanked Ann and got into my car to head back to Jason’s place for dinner.
C: She seems nice. Willing to give a good price for the car. Didn’t think car dealers were like this.
J: Yeah. I usually buy brand new. Used car market is very cutthroat.
Me: Well, I’ve known her for awhile. Guess the friendship helps?
C: Quite odd to have a lady boss of a car dealership though.
Me: Well, my car and Jasmine’s car are both from her.
C: Who’s Jasmine?
Me: My partner.
C: Oh. So you bought 2 cars from her and suddenly you’re friends?
Me: Actually I know her son and 2 daughters as well. And like I said, I’ve known her for awhile. Couple of years.
C: She has 3 kids? Can’t tell at all.
Me: Well-maintained I guess.
C: She looks barely a couple of years older than us. With 3 kids already. Lucky I don’t intend to have kids. Don’t know how to maintain my figure.
Me: Probably lots of exercise.
C: Looks like it.
I didn’t really want to continue the conversation in case I accidentally revealed too much, and thankfully Crystal stopped asking questions.
Jason had texted EoS to get a table at the coffeeshop and look through the menu for zhi char. We arrived to find him already there.
After the cursory greetings, Crystal sat next to him and I took the seat on his other side. For someone who claimed that she wasn’t close to him, Crystal certainly didn’t seem to have any issues asking him about what he’d been up to the past few years, how was his married life and stuff like that.
I glanced over at Jason and wondered what was going on. He seemed preoccupied with the menu as EoS had not ordered anything yet, but was waiting for us to arrive.
I observed their interactions and it seemed to me that EoS might really have been Crystal’s other guy previously. After all, the description of what he was capable of seemed to fit with whatever he described in his story. But he had never written any sexual experiences with someone like Crystal in it before. And strangely, Crystal seemed happy to be talking to him.
Me: I’m gonna get drinks. What do you all want?
J: Coke zero for me.
C: Jiajia.
E: Jiajia for me too. Feeling a little under the weather.
Me: Alright.
I headed to the drinks stall and grabbed a coke and 3 Jiajias. Now that EoS had mentioned it, I too had been having this irritating sore throat for the past few weeks. But I took ARTs randomly, and all were negative. I guess my previous bout with the unexplained fever got me a little paranoid but I never really acted on it.
Dinner was pretty extravagant, with Jason ordering 2 kinds of crab, fish head curry, cereal prawns, along with the usual zhi char dishes like prawn paste chicken, sambal kangkong and prawn rolls.
I wondered what the occasion was and why he was celebrating.
J: Hey, can I get beer?
C: For what?
J: To drink?
C: Ok. I’ll drink too.
E: I’ll pass.
Me: I’ll have one glass? Driving, and working tomorrow.
J: Ah. Ok. 2 bottles then.
He waved the beer lady over and ordered Heineken.
We ate and drank and chatted and watched parts of the parade on the coffeeshop TV.
After dinner, I wanted to ask Jason what did he really want to talk to me about. But I guess he couldn’t do so when Crystal was around. He did say it was supposed to be a mini boy’s night.
I bade goodbye to all of them before heading home.
As I reached home, I saw I had a text from Crystal.
C: Thank you. Somehow your advice worked. We finally had sex again.
Me: That’s good. Hope everything goes well.
C: I guess I need alcohol. We tried again today but I couldn’t get aroused. Kinda irritating.
Me: Well you just had beer. Time to get busy.
C: Idiot.
So I guess that was it. Jason probably wanted to share that he was finally sleeping with his wife again. That would probably mean I would have to meet Nat more often on his behalf. I guess that was what he wanted to tell me.
I showered and went to bed early. Jasmine was already snoozing even though it was only 9 plus.
Thankfully it was going to be a short work week.
I reached the pick up point slightly after 430pm. Jason and Crystal were already waiting there. I had to take a second look at Crystal as at first I thought she was wearing an absurdly short miniskirt. It turned out to be an extremely short romper.

I showered and went to bed early. Jasmine was already snoozing even though it was only 9 plus.
Thankfully it was going to be a short work week.
The rest of the work week went pretty smoothly. The office wasn’t as busy as expected due to the long weekend.
I actually managed to clear most of my work that was leftover from Karen, as well as most of the other tasks that were pending since my secondment.
Shirlyn had taken urgent leave for the entire week. I hope it was not because of what happened during the staycation. Perhaps she was actually pissed that I left halfway to find Crystal. Or maybe she was affected by what that guy did.
Whatever the case was, I decided it was best not to disturb her as I was still clearing my own work.
On Friday, I developed an itchy throat with a dry cough but did not think much of it. After all, the sore throat had been bothering me for quite some time.
I reached home rather late on Friday night as there was a bad jam. Jasmine wasn’t home, she supposedly was out with Kate.
My head was throbbing, and my whole body started to ache. I took some Panadol and an ART. There was a faint line at the T.
I immediately scrambled to look for some disinfectant spray to try to clean up the areas I was at. There was none, but I managed to find bleach so I made a simple solution to sprayed and wiped down the areas.
I opened the bedroom windows to air the room as well, and headed to Alicia’s room.
I called Jasmine to tell her that I think I was positive, had a faint line on the test.
J: What??? Oh no! Go see a doc?
Me: It’s late. I’ll go tomorrow. I cleaned up the room already. I’ll hide in Alicia’s room.
J: You know I can just go back to my parents place right? You need to rest. Don’t clean up the place. I can get professional cleaners.
Me: I already cleaned.
J: Go and rest. I’ll come back and make sure you see a doc tomorrow.
Me: Don’t. I might infect you.
J: I’ll be fine la. Just wear a mask. How do you think you got it?
Me: I have no clue. Shirlyn’s on urgent leave, don’t think she’s sick. She’s the only one I erm… swapped bodily fluids with, other than you of course.
J: I feel fine. Will test later.
Me: I had dinner with EoS, Jason and Crystal.
J: Ah. You better check with them then.
Me: Ok.
I hung up and dialled Jason.
J: What’s up bro? Was just about to text you to see if you’re free later.
Me: Huh? What’s happening later?
J: I’m about to meet Nat. Maybe we can get a drink or something after that?
Me: Oh. I can’t. I’m sick.
J: Hahahahahahaha. You got covid right? Both EoS and Crystal are isolating now.
Me: Oh?
J: You didn’t know?
Me: Nope.
J: EoS tested positive on Wednesday. Crystal this morning.
Me: And you’re fine?
J: I’m strong. Haha. Just kidding. Got it around 2 months ago? Shouldn’t get it again that fast.
Me: Ah. So it really was the dinner.
J: Should be. Unless you’ve been fucking my wife behind my back?
Me: Eh? I did no such thing.
J: Kidding bro. Why are you so jumpy?
Me: No clue. Feeling pretty awful.
J: You need anything sent over? Food? Drinks?
Me: Nah. I’m good. Will see a doctor tomorrow.
J: Right bro. Take care of yourself man.
I was thinking what kind of an ass Jason was, to be out fucking Nat when his wife was ill. My phone beeped and it was Crystal.
C: Welcome to the club. Jason just told me you’re positive too.
Me: Self-tested. I haven’t see a doc.
C: Oh. You should. Get meds. And MC.
Me: You feeling ok?
C: Just coughing my brains out. The headache and bodyaches aren’t helping. Intermittent fever.
Me: And Jason isn’t around to take care of you?
C: Nah. He went out. To have sex. He told me. I’m so glad he’s honest now.
M: Right.
C: Alright. Time to catch up on my Netflix shows. Take care ya?
Another text came in. It was EoS.
E: Sorry bro. I passed covid to you.
Me: Let me guess. Jason told you.
E: Yeah. He’s amused that he’s the only one who didn’t get it. Says he’s strong. He’s just gloating.
Me: I know. He recovered some time ago.
E: Stay safe bro. I feel like I’m dying, and work keeps disturbing me, like covid is not real.
Me: Wow. Hope you’re considering that job offer. They should be calling the candidates within the next 2 weeks.
E: Hope it’s after I recover. I can’t even talk properly with the sore throat and phlegm.
Me: Take care bro.
E: You two.
It seemed like the two of them were having pretty bad symptoms. I didn’t seem to be having a fever. Just the damn itchy throat and headache. The bodyaches seemed to disappear when I lay on the bed after my shower. Maybe it was the smell of Alicia on the pillows. But I was pretty sure I was hallucinating as the sheets had already been washed.
I left the window open for some natural ventilation and lay half naked on the bed. It was a cold night but I was feeling rather hot. Maybe I did have a fever.
I guess I would only find out when I went to see the doctor on Saturday.
The next day, Jasmine knocked on the door to wake me up.
J: There’s vitamin C drink outside the door. Please drink it before going to the doctor.
Me: Thanks.
But I could barely hear myself. Apparently I thick layer of phlegm had coated my throat and was affecting my speech. My nose was also somewhat blocked, and the whole world seemed to be spinning when I sat up too fast. I crawled to the door and took the glass of Vitamin C, drinking it as fast as I could. The cold liquid did bring some relief to my dry throat, but it felt like little knives were stabbing me.
I coughed incessantly, and managed to expel a huge glob of phlegm which I went to the toilet to spit out.
It was light green in colour, indicating some sort of infection.
I brushed my teeth, washed my face and got dressed.
J: Do you want me to drive you there?
Jasmine called out from her room.
Me: No! Stay inside please.
J: Ok. You better go now.
I grabbed my keys and headed to the car park. I couldn’t even remember where I parked the car.
Luckily, it was still early and I was the second person to register at the clinic.
The doctor took note of my symptoms, took my temperature, which unsurprisingly was 39.2 degrees, listened to my lungs, took my blood pressure and oxygen levels from the pulse oximeter.
Doc: Ok. You’ll need to take an ART. If negative 3 days MC. Positive then 7 days.
Me: Ok.
I waited outside for the nurse to call me for the test. The clinic was already filling up, with the majority of the patient’s either coughing or sneezing.
After the test, I was made to wait outside. 30 minutes later, I was called back in again and given a whole bunch of medications, along with a 7 day MC. I grabbed the bag and headed to the NTUC nearby to look for disinfectant spray although I should have gone straight home.
Thankfully, the NTUC was packed so I went home instead, deciding to be a civic-minded citizen.
When I reached back, there was a bowl of chocolate oats on the table with a note.
J: Eat this and take your meds. Or I’ll go into your room and infect myself.
Jasmine probably wasn’t kidding. But having both of us down at the same time would probably not be a good idea.
I ate the oats and my meds and headed back into the room. I texted her.
Me: Can you buy some disinfecting spray or something. Like Dettol or Lysol. Just to spray around the areas I walked or touched.
J: Ok. You go and sleep. Let me know if you need food or anything.
I took a quick shower first before lying down again. I did not recall being this sick for a long time. It was 10 times worse than my unexplained fever previously.
I texted Shirlyn to let her know I was on MC, and sent a copy of the MC to Rebecca.
R: Fuck you la! Already got so much work to do! Then you get covid!
Me: Sorry.
R: I mean I’m going to fuck you when you get back because you’re going to owe me for covering your work.
Me: God no. I’d rather die.
R: Asshole. Rest well. I’ll make sure I leave all the paperwork for you.
Me: Anything. Good night.
I closed my eyes and tried to sleep but was interrupted every 10 minutes or so due to the random bouts of coughing.
Fuck this covid.
The rest of the work week went pretty smoothly. The office wasn’t as busy as expected due to the long weekend.
I actually managed to clear most of my work that was leftover from Karen, as well as most of the other tasks that were pending since my secondment.
Shirlyn had taken urgent leave for the entire week. I hope it was not because of what happened during the staycation. Perhaps she was actually pissed that I left halfway to find Crystal. Or maybe she was affected by what that guy did.

J: EoS tested positive on Wednesday. Crystal this morning.
Me: And you’re fine?
J: I’m strong. Haha. Just kidding. Got it around 2 months ago? Shouldn’t get it again that fast.
Me: Ah. So it really was the dinner.
J: Should be. Unless you’ve been fucking my wife behind my back?
Me: Eh? I did no such thing.
J: Kidding bro. Why are you so jumpy?
Me: No clue. Feeling pretty awful.
J: You need anything sent over? Food? Drinks?
Me: Nah. I’m good. Will see a doctor tomorrow.
J: Right bro. Take care of yourself man.
I was thinking what kind of an ass Jason was, to be out fucking Nat when his wife was ill. My phone beeped and it was Crystal.
C: Welcome to the club. Jason just told me you’re positive too.
Me: Self-tested. I haven’t see a doc.
C: Oh. You should. Get meds. And MC.
Me: You feeling ok?
C: Just coughing my brains out. The headache and bodyaches aren’t helping. Intermittent fever.
Me: And Jason isn’t around to take care of you?
C: Nah. He went out. To have sex. He told me. I’m so glad he’s honest now.
M: Right.
C: Alright. Time to catch up on my Netflix shows. Take care ya?
Another text came in. It was EoS.
E: Sorry bro. I passed covid to you.
Me: Let me guess. Jason told you.
E: Yeah. He’s amused that he’s the only one who didn’t get it. Says he’s strong. He’s just gloating.
Me: I know. He recovered some time ago.
E: Stay safe bro. I feel like I’m dying, and work keeps disturbing me, like covid is not real.
Me: Wow. Hope you’re considering that job offer. They should be calling the candidates within the next 2 weeks.
E: Hope it’s after I recover. I can’t even talk properly with the sore throat and phlegm.
Me: Take care bro.
E: You two.
It seemed like the two of them were having pretty bad symptoms. I didn’t seem to be having a fever. Just the damn itchy throat and headache. The bodyaches seemed to disappear when I lay on the bed after my shower. Maybe it was the smell of Alicia on the pillows. But I was pretty sure I was hallucinating as the sheets had already been washed.
I left the window open for some natural ventilation and lay half naked on the bed. It was a cold night but I was feeling rather hot. Maybe I did have a fever.
I guess I would only find out when I went to see the doctor on Saturday.
The next day, Jasmine knocked on the door to wake me up.
J: There’s vitamin C drink outside the door. Please drink it before going to the doctor.
Me: Thanks.
But I could barely hear myself. Apparently I thick layer of phlegm had coated my throat and was affecting my speech. My nose was also somewhat blocked, and the whole world seemed to be spinning when I sat up too fast. I crawled to the door and took the glass of Vitamin C, drinking it as fast as I could. The cold liquid did bring some relief to my dry throat, but it felt like little knives were stabbing me.
I coughed incessantly, and managed to expel a huge glob of phlegm which I went to the toilet to spit out.
It was light green in colour, indicating some sort of infection.
I brushed my teeth, washed my face and got dressed.
J: Do you want me to drive you there?
Jasmine called out from her room.
Me: No! Stay inside please.
J: Ok. You better go now.
I grabbed my keys and headed to the car park. I couldn’t even remember where I parked the car.
Luckily, it was still early and I was the second person to register at the clinic.
The doctor took note of my symptoms, took my temperature, which unsurprisingly was 39.2 degrees, listened to my lungs, took my blood pressure and oxygen levels from the pulse oximeter.
Doc: Ok. You’ll need to take an ART. If negative 3 days MC. Positive then 7 days.
Me: Ok.
I waited outside for the nurse to call me for the test. The clinic was already filling up, with the majority of the patient’s either coughing or sneezing.
After the test, I was made to wait outside. 30 minutes later, I was called back in again and given a whole bunch of medications, along with a 7 day MC. I grabbed the bag and headed to the NTUC nearby to look for disinfectant spray although I should have gone straight home.
Thankfully, the NTUC was packed so I went home instead, deciding to be a civic-minded citizen.
When I reached back, there was a bowl of chocolate oats on the table with a note.
J: Eat this and take your meds. Or I’ll go into your room and infect myself.
Jasmine probably wasn’t kidding. But having both of us down at the same time would probably not be a good idea.
I ate the oats and my meds and headed back into the room. I texted her.
Me: Can you buy some disinfecting spray or something. Like Dettol or Lysol. Just to spray around the areas I walked or touched.
J: Ok. You go and sleep. Let me know if you need food or anything.
I took a quick shower first before lying down again. I did not recall being this sick for a long time. It was 10 times worse than my unexplained fever previously.
I texted Shirlyn to let her know I was on MC, and sent a copy of the MC to Rebecca.
R: Fuck you la! Already got so much work to do! Then you get covid!
Me: Sorry.
R: I mean I’m going to fuck you when you get back because you’re going to owe me for covering your work.
Me: God no. I’d rather die.
R: Asshole. Rest well. I’ll make sure I leave all the paperwork for you.
Me: Anything. Good night.
I closed my eyes and tried to sleep but was interrupted every 10 minutes or so due to the random bouts of coughing.
Fuck this covid.
The next 7 days were spent in isolation in Alicia’s room.
I alternated between feeling cold and hot for no reason at all, having bouts of cough that made me puke so practically anything I ate or drank wouldn’t stay down.
I had to drink more liquids to stay hydrated, but the throat hurt so bad that even swallowing was proving to be a little difficult.
My nose alternated between being blocked and running like someone forgot to turn off a tap.
I couldn’t move much, as every small movement sort of amplified the body aches. So I guess you can imagine how I was feeling whenever I coughed.
I think if I wasn’t vaccinated and boosted, I would probably be in hospital on a ventilator.
I didn’t have much to do other than stay in bed and not move most of the time.
Hilariously, Crystal decided to do a video call to check how EoS and I were doing on Monday. I was not in the mood, but I was extremely bored, having browsed through tons of series on Netflix but never really watching more than 2 episodes each as I drifted off to sleep in between.
I guess she was bored too and I decided to indulge her in her video call. Not surprisingly, all of us were lying in bed, wrapped up in blankets.
Me: Hello fellow sick people.
E: What’s up?
C: Eh your voices damn sexy. Haha.
Me: How come you’re so free to call, Jason not at home?
I swear I could see her rolling her eyes even though it was kind of dark in the room.
C: It’s Monday. He’s at work.
E: You two are too bored. Can I please go back to sleep?
C: You answered the call. You didn’t have to.
Me: Aren’t you going back to work in 2 days? Your MC started last Wednesday right?
E: Do I sound or look like I can go back to work?
Me: Probably not.
C: Where’s your wife? Not taking care of you?
He raised his phone further away from his body.
E: I’m hiding in my home office.
Me: Wtf bro? Is that a safari bed? The army kind?
E: Yeah. Got it from decathlon actually. I don’t have a spare bed in the house.
C: Poor thing. I kicked Jason out to the spare room. He’s probably having fun every night chatting with his other girls.
E: Erm.
C: He finally confessed. That idiot. Should have done it long ago.
E: Hope you’re honest with him too…
C: I’m mostly honest. He knows what he needs to know. Or he already knows because some people can’t keep secrets.
I was super tempted to interrogate both of them about being each other’s FWB but I couldn’t muster the strength.
E: It’s good to be honest. We’ve been telling him for years. But you’re quite fierce to him. It was getting tiring covering for him.
C: Since when am I fierce???
She practically raised her voice as much as she could then started coughing.
Me: Like right now?
C: Hey, I can be nice if I want to ok? Demure. Girly.
E: Haha. Sure sure.
C: Don’t be an ass like your best friend. I’m just bored and I wanna chat with someone.
Me: Don’t you have any other friends? Female friends?
C: They’re all at work.
Me: So you choose to disturb the sick people.
C: Is there anyone else I can disturb?
She did have a point though. Maybe isolation was driving her insane.
Me: I bet if you call Jason to come home now, he’ll rush back.
C: Come home and do what? Have sex? You know it’s hard for him to arouse me right?
Me: Erm. Inappropriate.
C: What? You know this. We talked about it.
E: You did? That’s interesting…
C: Oh shit! Was it supposed to be a secret?
Me: No? I don’t know? You’re the one who started talking about it.
E: Wow. You didn’t talk to me for years and then suddenly you’re discussing your sex life with a guy you met like once?
C: I didn’t know who to call. Jason went MIA.
E: Oh? When?
C: Long story. Don’t feel like telling it.
E: Oh. Ok.
C: Are you falling asleep?
E: Sort of. I just took meds.
C: Eh. You guys also having chills right? Then after awhile super hot?
Me: Yeah.
E: I don’t bother. I just wrap up then sleep. If can sweat the fever out it would be good.
C: Easier for guys. You can be topless. It’s so hot sometimes, then so cold. I don’t know if I want to wrap up or not. Wrap with clothes on become too hot, don’t wrap it’s too cold. I should just sleep naked and wrap.
Me: Turn on the aircon?
C: It’s already on. 18 degrees.
E: Are you crazy? Mines at 24 and I’m freezing sometimes.
Me: You two are polar bears. I’m at 26.
C: What. I got more fats. Will feel hotter.
E: Hahaha. Where are the fats? I think I have more fats that you and Jason combined.
It was true. She looked like she worked out quite a bit.
Me: Me too.
E: Anyway I’m going to sleep first. You two continue chatting. Bye.
He left the video call.
C: Wow. So rude. He just left like that.
Me: We’re sick. Let us rest please.
C: I’m sick too. And damn bored.
Me: I thought you were watching Netflix?
C: Bored of it already.
Me: Watch something else?
C: Like what?
Me: Porn? Haha.
C: Are you crazy? Why would I watch porn?
Me: I don’t know. I would if I was bored.
C: Mad. I’m not that kind of person ok? You watch then you masturbate?
Me: Not really. Just watch then go to sleep?
C: Sicko.
Me: You know I can see your nipples right?
She had thrown off her blanket and was lying on her side, offering me a fantastic view of her boobs that were covered in a sheer nightgown. The cold aircon probably made her nipples erect and they were poking through the fabric and staring at me.
C: I don’t wear bras at home.
Me: And you are ok with me looking?
C: I’m fully dressed. What’s the issue? Is this like porn to you?
Me: To some guys it’s actually quite arousing.
C: What. The. Shit. Are you that kind of guy? You got an erection for a simple hug.
I lifted the blanket and pretended to look at my crotch.
Me: Nope. Not hard. And it wasn’t that simple, you were rubbing your boobs on me.
C: Idiot! You’re an idiot. But a funny idiot.
I decided I probably should change the topic.
Me: So you and Jason…
C: Yeah. I’m happy. Sort of. We’re like teenagers exploring our sexuality again. But I really need alcohol otherwise I don’t really get wet.
Me: Don’t you touch yourself?
C: What? Masturbate? No.
Me: I think you should. Get in touch with your own body. Haha.
C: No way.
Me: Why? It’s unnatural?
C: Yeah…
Me: So is having a FWB while you’re married and your husband is also fucking around.
C: I prefer someone else touching me. And you talk like you’re in a normal healthy relationship.
Me: At least I don’t think the sex acts I do are unnatural.
C: You’re going to hell.
Me: Probably. I’ll save a spot for you.
C: Thanks ah.
She suddenly started squeezing her boobs.
Me: Erm. What are you doing?
C: Oh. Subconscious action.
Me: Huh?
C: Period coming. They’re sore. Need to massage.
Me: You’re still on camera. And I’m watching.
C: If it’s bothering you then don’t watch?
She suddenly turned off the camera but left the call on.
Me: Haha. Can I go back to sleep now please?
C: Just talk to me la… I’m very bored. Talk until you fall asleep.
Me: Talk about what?
C: Anything?
Me: Are you touching yourself now?
C: Huh? You know I’m massaging my breasts.
Me: That’s touching yourself.
C: No it isn’t.
Me: It literally is.
C: Whatever.
Me: Does it feel good?
C: My breasts are sore and I’m massaging it. What do you think?
Me: I don’t know. Got no breasts.
C: Very funny.
Me: Are you touching anywhere else?
C: Eh. What the hell. This is becoming a sex chat.
Me: You said talk about anything right?
C: Fine. No I’m not touching anywhere else.
Me: Your nipples were hard.
C: It’s cold!
Me: Touch them?
C: They’re not sore.
Me: Just touch them.
C: Touch? Or pinch?
Me: What does your guy do to them? Or Jason?
C: Wah lau. I’m not going to tell you.
Me: Nipples are sensitive spots. It should turn you on if touched in the right way.
C: I’m not going to turn myself on right now.
Me: Ah ha! So you do play with yourself.
C: Ok fine. I used to. Before I started going to church seriously.
Me: Your church seems very strict. Old-fashioned? I can’t seem to find the correct word.
C: How about religious?
Me: Ah! Fantanical!
C: No they’re not.
Me: Seems restrictive.
C: Whatever la. I’m not playing with myself.
Me: If I was trying to be funny I’d ask if you needed a hand…
C: Is this how you flirt with girls?
Me: Maybe?
C: It’s so funny. Don’t believe it will work.
Me: It does on some girls I guess.
C: It won’t work on me.
Me: It probably wouldn’t.
C: I’m not the one that got hard from a hug.
Me: I wasn’t the one who was rubbing my nipples on a guy you barely know.
C: I wasn’t doing that… or was I?
Me: You were… sort of.
C: Then why didn’t you stop me??? Damn. I’m getting embarrassed now.
Me: You were drunk and upset. I felt it was better to let you do what you wanted.
C: Shit you la. I didn’t even realize I was doing that. And are you stupid or what? You let anyone do whatever they want to you?
Me: Most of the time…
C: Crazy. What if I was so drunk and started touching you?
Me: You did actually.
C: I did???
Me: You checked if I was getting hard.
C: Oh my god. I really don’t remember.
Me: Well you did.
C: Maybe it’s so small that I couldn’t feel anything. Hahahaha.
Me: Maybe.
C: Idiot.
Me: Anyway I really want to go back to sleep. You can continue playing with yourself.
C: I’m not!
Me: I think you want to, but you’re scared I know, so you’re holding back.
C: Why should I be scared about what you think?
Me: Who knows.
Suddenly the video was turned back on.
Crystal had placed her phone in front of her and was now massaging her breasts, still fully clothed, with both hands.
C: Are you watching?
Me: Hahaha! Are you trying to seduce me?
C: No? Just showing you I’m not scared about what you think. Are you getting hard?
Me: No?
While cupping her breasts, she pinched both her hardened nipples with her thumbs and index fingers, rolling them in between.
C: How about now?
Me: No?
C: Ok. You’re not very fun.
Me: Is this what you do with your FWB.
C: Hahahahahah. Yeah. I’ll tease him video call last time.
Me: Does it work?
C: He’ll usually ask me to remove my top and do it again.
Me: Did you?
C: Sometimes.
Me: Would you do that now?
C: Why?
Me: Just asking.
C: Hmmm… it’s only us now. Jason’s going to kill me when he finds out.
Me: Are you worried he’ll find out?
C: Nope. I hope he finds out.
Me: What are you waiting for then?
C: I must be crazy. I don’t even know you that well.
Me: Yeah.
Suddenly, she sat up and pulled off her nightgown, before lying back down, covering her boobs with her hands.
C: I have no idea why I’m doing this for you.
Me: I have no idea why either. But I don’t mind watching.
She parted her fingers, showing me a quick glimpse of her nipples. The room was dark, and I couldn’t really see much, but her nipples seemed to be light brown, with large areolas. She rubbed them in circles with her middle fingers, then rolled them between her thumb and index finger. If she was getting aroused, I could hardly tell as she didn’t make a sound. I kinda wished she was looking at the camera so I could gauge her facial expressions, but the phone was pointed at her chest area.
C: I’m so fucking embarrassed now.
Me: I’m not. Hahahaha.
C: I’m going to stop.
Me: Alright.
She sat up and put on her nightgown again.
C: Happy?
Me: Huh?
C: You saw me play with my boobs.
Me: Why would that make me happy?
C: I don’t know. It made my FWB happy. Then he would masturbate and show me.
Me: Hahaha. Sounds like two young kids teasing each other.
C: Well… We used to do it on Facetime.
Me: What’s Facetime?
C: You don’t know what’s Facetime?
Me: Sounds familiar… but…
C: Apple video call. Last time. Maybe 10 years ago?
Me: Oh. I use Android phones.
C: I’m sure there was some video call function.
Me: I can’t really remember.
C: Whatever la. That’s what we did.
Me: So you did touch yourself. Stop pretending to be pure and innocent.
C: But I am!
Me: You’re delusional.
C: No. I really am. I only do these things for that guy. I don’t know why, but I’d do it for him.
Me: Maybe he cast a spell on you.
C: Maybe.
Me: Anyway you just did it for another guy.
C: It’s different. You didn’t play with yourself.
Me: Was I supposed to?
C: Would you?
Me: No. Hahahaha.
C: Idiot!!! You conned me into showing you my boobs!
Me: Nah. You did it willingly to prove a point. I have nothing to prove.
C: Ok. I guess you’re right.
Me: If you’re bored, you should video call that guy. Reignite the old flames of passion…
C: I can’t. He’s married. I haven’t spoken to him about it yet.
Me: Then what are you waiting for?
C: I don’t know.
Me: Well you know what to do. And what you want to do. I’m going to sleep. Bye.
C: Ass. Rest well.
Me: Go play with yourself. Haha.
C: Maybe I will.
Me: Bye.
I went back to sleep. In my opinion, Crystal was definitely flirting. But common sense told me not to indulge her. And I wouldn’t tell Jason about it either. Or perhaps I should.
The next 7 days were spent in isolation in Alicia’s room.
I alternated between feeling cold and hot for no reason at all, having bouts of cough that made me puke so practically anything I ate or drank wouldn’t stay down.

Me: You were… sort of.
C: Then why didn’t you stop me??? Damn. I’m getting embarrassed now.
Me: You were drunk and upset. I felt it was better to let you do what you wanted.
C: Shit you la. I didn’t even realize I was doing that. And are you stupid or what? You let anyone do whatever they want to you?
Me: Most of the time…
C: Crazy. What if I was so drunk and started touching you?
Me: You did actually.
C: I did???
Me: You checked if I was getting hard.
C: Oh my god. I really don’t remember.
Me: Well you did.
C: Maybe it’s so small that I couldn’t feel anything. Hahahaha.
Me: Maybe.
C: Idiot.
Me: Anyway I really want to go back to sleep. You can continue playing with yourself.
C: I’m not!
Me: I think you want to, but you’re scared I know, so you’re holding back.
C: Why should I be scared about what you think?
Me: Who knows.
Suddenly the video was turned back on.
Crystal had placed her phone in front of her and was now massaging her breasts, still fully clothed, with both hands.
C: Are you watching?
Me: Hahaha! Are you trying to seduce me?
C: No? Just showing you I’m not scared about what you think. Are you getting hard?
Me: No?
While cupping her breasts, she pinched both her hardened nipples with her thumbs and index fingers, rolling them in between.
C: How about now?
Me: No?
C: Ok. You’re not very fun.
Me: Is this what you do with your FWB.
C: Hahahahahah. Yeah. I’ll tease him video call last time.
Me: Does it work?
C: He’ll usually ask me to remove my top and do it again.
Me: Did you?
C: Sometimes.
Me: Would you do that now?
C: Why?
Me: Just asking.
C: Hmmm… it’s only us now. Jason’s going to kill me when he finds out.
Me: Are you worried he’ll find out?
C: Nope. I hope he finds out.
Me: What are you waiting for then?
C: I must be crazy. I don’t even know you that well.
Me: Yeah.
Suddenly, she sat up and pulled off her nightgown, before lying back down, covering her boobs with her hands.
C: I have no idea why I’m doing this for you.
Me: I have no idea why either. But I don’t mind watching.
She parted her fingers, showing me a quick glimpse of her nipples. The room was dark, and I couldn’t really see much, but her nipples seemed to be light brown, with large areolas. She rubbed them in circles with her middle fingers, then rolled them between her thumb and index finger. If she was getting aroused, I could hardly tell as she didn’t make a sound. I kinda wished she was looking at the camera so I could gauge her facial expressions, but the phone was pointed at her chest area.
C: I’m so fucking embarrassed now.
Me: I’m not. Hahahaha.
C: I’m going to stop.
Me: Alright.
She sat up and put on her nightgown again.
C: Happy?
Me: Huh?
C: You saw me play with my boobs.
Me: Why would that make me happy?
C: I don’t know. It made my FWB happy. Then he would masturbate and show me.
Me: Hahaha. Sounds like two young kids teasing each other.
C: Well… We used to do it on Facetime.
Me: What’s Facetime?
C: You don’t know what’s Facetime?
Me: Sounds familiar… but…
C: Apple video call. Last time. Maybe 10 years ago?
Me: Oh. I use Android phones.
C: I’m sure there was some video call function.
Me: I can’t really remember.
C: Whatever la. That’s what we did.
Me: So you did touch yourself. Stop pretending to be pure and innocent.
C: But I am!
Me: You’re delusional.
C: No. I really am. I only do these things for that guy. I don’t know why, but I’d do it for him.
Me: Maybe he cast a spell on you.
C: Maybe.
Me: Anyway you just did it for another guy.
C: It’s different. You didn’t play with yourself.
Me: Was I supposed to?
C: Would you?
Me: No. Hahahaha.
C: Idiot!!! You conned me into showing you my boobs!
Me: Nah. You did it willingly to prove a point. I have nothing to prove.
C: Ok. I guess you’re right.
Me: If you’re bored, you should video call that guy. Reignite the old flames of passion…
C: I can’t. He’s married. I haven’t spoken to him about it yet.
Me: Then what are you waiting for?
C: I don’t know.
Me: Well you know what to do. And what you want to do. I’m going to sleep. Bye.
C: Ass. Rest well.
Me: Go play with yourself. Haha.
C: Maybe I will.
Me: Bye.
I went back to sleep. In my opinion, Crystal was definitely flirting. But common sense told me not to indulge her. And I wouldn’t tell Jason about it either. Or perhaps I should.
I spent the entire week in bed. I really didn’t have the energy to do anything else.
I barely ate anything, unless I needed to take some meds.
Luckily, Jasmine was back for dinner and she’d order food for me, mostly soup/porridge, and she ate the same thing to make things simpler. I kind of felt sorry for her as my illness was subjecting her to an entire week of shitty food, lack of intimacy, and basically being a burden to her. I probably should make it up to her.
On Wednesday afternoon Crystal did a group video call again, but only I answered.
Me: Yes?
C: Wah. Why is your voice still sexy?
Me: I’ve not recovered?
C: Oh.
Me: Are you bored again?
C: Very.
Me: Did you play with yourself the other day?
C: Not telling you.
Me: Why not?
C: Why do you want to know?
Me: I’m bored too?
C: Are you deprived or something? Want to see my boobs again?
Me: Is that an offer?
C: What’s in it for me?
Me: Nothing?
C: You’re not going to masturbate?
Me: I’m sick and I don’t think I can get hard.
C: That bad huh?
Me: You know guys sometimes have random erections right, especially in the morning?
C: Yes?
Me: I didn’t have any at all during the past few days.
C: Did you watch porn?
Me: Yup.
C: And no reaction either?
Me: Nope.
C: Ah. Sounds bad. Good luck to you. You have erectile dysfunction.
Me: Right.
C: How can I help? Hahahaha.
Me: You can’t. I didn’t get hard when you flashed your boobs the other day.
C: Too bad then.
Me: What else do you want to show me?
C: Nothing. You’re not fun to tease.
Me: So you finally admitted you’re teasing me.
C: Shit. I was going to play this game a bit longer.
Me: Why are you even playing a game. Just tell me what you want.
C: I’m looking for my sexually compatible partner.
Me: I know that. And you’re considering me?
C: You did get hard when I hugged you. Despite what you say, I know it means you got turned on by me. So yeah. You’re on the list.
Me: Any guy with a healthy penis would get hard if you hugged them the same way.
C: I think so too.
Me: Then go and hug other guys and find out?
C: I’m not a slut.
Me: Never said you were.
C: You’re insinuating.
Me: You’re assuming.
C: Are you interested or not?
Me: I have too many partners already.
C: So add one more? And you didn’t say you’re not interested.
Me: Nah. I’m not interested.
C: You know why else you’re on my list?
Me: No?
C: Because I think you’re a nice guy.
Me: I am?
C: Which guy would go all the way to the house of a girl he barely knows to see if she’s ok, finds her drunk, and doesn’t take advantage of her? If it was anyone else, I think I’d hopefully already have my sexually compatible partner.
Me: Most guys I know wouldn’t do that?
C: Really meh? Intro please.
Me: One of my colleagues has practically been throwing herself at EoS. He never did anything.
C: He’s married. And how do you know he didn’t do anything?
Me: I just know?
C: You know his history right?
Me: I read about it.
C: You believe everything he wrote?
Me: Maybe 80%?
C: You don’t know what I know. Things he never wrote about.
Me: How do you know he wrote?
C: Jason told me before. Told me some of the things he wrote. It’s quite funny.
Me: You never read it?
C: I don’t go to such forums.
Me: Why? It’s unnatural?
C: Idiot. No. I think it’s a place for entertainment. I’d rather believe what I hear from him directly.
Me: Oh. Ok. So what do you know about him?
C: I honestly haven’t spoken to him since he got married.
Me: Were you close before?
C: Not really. I didn’t like how he and Darren were so protective of Jason. Keep covering for him. Keep lying for him.
Me: You really don’t like them huh.
C: EoS is still ok. He would talk to me sometimes, try to get to know me better. Try to get me to talk more to Darren and not jump to conclusions. He has this, how you say… hero syndrome?
Me: I don’t get it.
C: He sees himself as the hero and everyone else needs saving?
Me: Sounds familiar. Jason mentioned it to me.
C: Yes. We actually discussed it before..
Me: So did EoS rescue your wet pussy with his hero cock?
C: Wow. That’s really crude.
Me: Did he?
C: I’m not going to answer that.
Me: Ok fine. Carry on.
C: So when he does the things he does, girls and guys will naturally think he’s a nice guy.
Me: And?
C: Contrary to what people say, you know the Chinese saying, boy not bad, girl don’t like?
Me: Yeah.
C: Girls actually prefer a nice guy.
Me: So he’s actually not a nice guy?
C: I think everything he does has an ulterior motive. He is nice in a sense.
Me: Oh damn. Is he aiming for my ass?
C: You’re damn sick.
Me: Hahahaha.
C: You on the other hand, I can’t detect any ulterior motives other than you’re genuinely nice.
Me: Maybe you’re not detecting properly.
C: I think my detector is fine. I expected Jason to fool around even before we got married. I just didn’t expect him to keep hiding it.
Me: You see. If you talked to him more, maybe he wouldn’t see the need to hide. And maybe stop being so fierce to him?
C: I’m not fierce or controlling. I give him so much freedom. I just want him to know where his home is, and that I’m waiting for him.
Me: And then you go and fuck his friend…
C: Argh. I said I still regret it right?
Me: And yet if the opportunity arises, you’d fuck his friends again.
C: Possibly. Tell me which girl doesn’t want to feel good having sex?
Me: You’ve probably had 3 partners. Jason, and two of his friends. According to you, Jason is bad and only 1 of his friends is good. I think you don’t know what good sex is.
C: And you do?
Me: Probably better than you?
C: Well why don’t you show me you bad boy?
Me: That’s pretty cringy.
C: I don’t know how to talk dirty. Haha.
Me: Not unexpected.
C: But yeah. I think you’re a nice guy with no hidden intentions. You’re straight to the point.
Me: Would you be surprised to know I’m actually pretty wishy-washy?
C: Oh? That’s surprising.
Me: I want to be with my partner. But somehow she wants me to be with others so they can be happy too.
C: What makes you so attractive to them?
Me: I’m willing to please?
C: You don’t seem very willing to please me.
Me: I’m not who you want. Or what you want.
C: I was wet that day you know? I just didn’t want to say it.
Me: Hmm?
C: In case you got the wrong idea too fast.
Me: Right. You got wet from hugging me?
C: And rubbing my nipples on you. And playing with myself to show you.
Me: Oh.
C: I’m actually considering touching myself again and showing you.
Me: But you’re bleeding. It’s gonna be messy.
C: See! You’re observant. Other guys would say do it now. Show me.
Me: You mentioned it the other day that your period is coming.
C: So yeah. I can tell you’re a nice guy who puts the needs of others above his own.
Me: Probably.
C: I daresay, if you weren’t so attached to your partner, you’d be sleeping with a lot more than 5 girls.
Me: You may be right.
C: Will I be the 6th?
Me: Highly unlikely.
She pulled up her top and exposed her breasts to me again.
C: You sure?
Me: Haha. I already said it didn’t turn me on.
She squeezed her boobs and teased her nipples, getting them harder.
C: Oh Mark…I want you to touch me…
Me: Sure….
C: I want to feel you inside me…
Me: And if you’re not wet?
C: Something tells me you can make me wet.
Me: I’m not going to try. Anyway can you please rest? I’m still sick, you’re still sick. Maybe you should stop torturing yourself like this.
C: Haha. Honestly I’ve not been this horny for a while. And I don’t know why.
Me: Go tempt EoS. Go….
C: He’s married now.
Me: Was the other guy married?
C: Yes. I think that’s why I wasn’t aroused. It’s like playing with someone else’s toy.
Me: Wah lau! I’m attached. I’m someone else’s toy.
C: You’re the toy of 5 girls because you allow yourself to be.
Me: Fine.
C: I really enjoy talking to you. Except you make me feel very embarrassed.
Me: I do? Oops.
C: Ya. I don’t expose myself to guys. I don’t offer myself to them and expect to get rejected.
Me: You only had 2 other guys. Come on. This is practice for future rejection. Haha.
C: Good point.
Me: Go exercise or something when you recover. Your body’s really fantastic.
C: I do ballet, yoga, callisthenics, and I used to be a gymnast.
Me: Oh?
C: Imagine the positions you could get me in.
Me: That’s a very lame attempt at flirting.
C: At least I tried.
Me: Trust me, you’ll want EoS. He’s got a nice dick.
C: How do you know?
Me: Long story. But he got exposed in front of my partner and Nat.
C: Hahahahahaha! How did that happen? By the way did you know he made Nat puke?
Me: I’ve heard. So you know about his legendary cock.
C: Maybe.
Me: Go video call him. I’m sure he’ll be surprised and tempted..besides…. He can exit isolation today right?
C: He exited yesterday. Think he’s back at work already. Maybe that’s why he didn’t answer this group call.
Me: Were you going to flash the both of us?
C: Haha. Maybe.
Me: I wanna sleep please.
C: Ok. I guess I’m sufficiently entertained. Talk again tomorrow?
Me: Sure.
We hung up and I went back to sleep.
It was interesting to know that someone else wanted me too, but I was determined not to give in this time.
