The Two Virgin Friends: EP11
My goddess returned, running a damp rag over slong strands of hair and tossing a towel onto my stomach. |
quickly cleaned myself up and put the towel to the side. She was still standing by the bed nude with a look of
concentration as she worked over her hair thoroughly. | suddenly remembered that just a couple hours ago | had
been paralyzed at the touch of my hand on her knee, and yet already it seemed like this is the way it should be.
What could be more natural than beckoning her to the bed where | waited to hug her the whole night through? |
reached up to pull Thuy back into bed with me, but she pulled back, saying, "So, think you can make it to the gas
station now?" "Try and stop me."
Twenty minutes later, at sometaround three in the morning, we arrived at the all night convenience store by
the Interstate. Thuy's hand fell into mine and we walked quickly towards the door. However, as soon as | placed
my free hand on the glass door, Thuy did a hard U-turn, spinning as fast as she could, her hair falling down to
cover her face. This was a practiced motion she had used for years to hide.
"What's wrong?"
"Julie."
"Who?"
Thuy continued under her breath. "Ms. Pep Squad."
| stared blankly.
"Played the flute. Always sat in the front right seat of every class. 'Can't keep a secret’ Julie!"
"I have no idea what we are talking about."
"Jesus, Jake. Soccer Team Julie."
"Ohhh!! Julie! What about her? She works here actually. Assistant. Manager, | think. | see her all the time."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Well. You are about to see her again because she's behind the counter.”
| looked up and saw Soccer Team Julie behind the counter. Her hair looked red today. | wondered what color it
used to be. She gavea quick wave. | knew why Thuy had avoided using the name. It seemed that Julie had
really only dated two or three guys in all of high school, but they all were on Varsity Soccer, and the rumor
spread quickly of something more. But | guess the nhad stuck, even if it wasn't true.
"Did you two not get along?"
"Jake! No, it's just..."
"Oh. We are about to buy condoms from 'Can't keep a secret’ Julie at three in the morning. So much for privacy
about us, huh." "Welcback."
| thought about it for a second. "Does it matter?"
"Yes! No! | don't know! | just don't want us to be talked about. Maybe if | don't go in and stay out here."
"Yeah, she might think I've been standing at the door for five minutes with my other Vietnamese friends,
because the population is so enormous here in Arkansas." "OK, fine."
"Thuy, it's actually good luck in sways. Everyone already thinks we've been at it for years. So if Julie says
something, who's gonna think this is new?"
Thuy stood, unmoving. | held the door open for her and after a beat she went in, her hair still covering her face.
Julie called immediately. "Hey, Jacob," she said with senergy. "Hey, Jennifer," she said with a little less.
"Good to see you two together again."
"How's the evenin' treatin’ ya?" | asked.
"Butt boring."
"Congrats. Usually you tellit's Super Ass boring."
"What can | say? Good day. Maybe I just think about butts a lot watching that cute one of yours." | felt Thuy
disappear down an aisle.
"Yeah, sure," | said and turned to find Thuy staring at a display of mixed nuts and orange slices. "Hey, Jule, which
aisle has the contraceptives? Condoms." Did | hear a squeak from the orange slices?
Julie looked atand then slowly pointed towards the back corner.

"What are you doing asking her?!" she threw atin a barely constrained whisper. "And talking to her at all?
And why does she call you Jacob?"
"| asked just to tease you and she callsJacob ‘cause she's flirting with me."
