I used to live a very exciting life before I went here in Dubai. "Thank God It's Friday!" was my favorite line. And weekends are something to look forward to. Not a week would pass that I haven't booked a date with my colleagues or friends. You can always find me in one of the bars, either in Malate, QC or Ortigas. Sometimes I would even go to Makati or Taguig. Where there's a party you will surely find me there getting drunk and having the time of my life.
Now, all of these are just a thing of the past. Here, I still look forward to weekends. You can still here me saying (but now it's) "Thank God It's Thursday!" But there are no more night outs with friends getting more drunk in a bar. Just a date every Thursday night.
Yes! You heard it right! Every Thursday I have a date. But not with some good looking guy. And it is not that kind of date where you dressed up and spent hours on the mirror putting on your make up.
My Thursday night since the time I came here was booked by Zen.
Zen is my ever reliable washing machine. We spent so many Thursday nights together. I'm even looking forward to it. I sometimes turn down other invites because Thursday night is meant for only him. He has this power over me. Maybe it's his electrifying skills that I was really drawn to him. Every time I get near him I felt this jolt in my body.That's the downside of our date though. I just don't know why washing machines here have grounds. So, it is really a burden doing the laundry. I would have to turn it off first before I could touch it. You won't imagine how this task is taking me too long to finish. But there's nothing I can do. I have to accept Zen for what he is. I have to bear the pains because I cannot live without him. And besides if I abandon him I won't have an excuse for being dateless on Thursday nights.
Zen will remain to be my constant companion on Thursday nights. I just hope one day he will agree on a three-some... Me, Zen and good-looking guy. Hmmm... not bad. :p
