First Time in Bangkok


First Time in Bangkok, water color on paper, 5x7 inch

In Hamburg, he’s a family man, 15 years married to a woman he still loves. He adores his two children. His family comes first, his work as the VP/Sales at the steel company second. They’ve sent him to Bangkok, finalizing a new deal. His first 3 nights, socializing across a blur of restaurants, bars, clubs, he was smiling, laughing, enjoying the crowd and scene. He said no to every girl offered, no matter how beautiful and friendly. Until last night.  Slender and silky, speaking perfect German, smiling eyes and an animal grace, he’s never been with any woman quite like her. Suddenly, he’s not so sure.
