I walked past the Barbershop in a straight line to the next bar on the Clark AFB side gate strip. The two Paso's were still in my pocket that my bride had given me to get a haircut. My appearance had changed a little, I was a marked man. Both my elbows and knees were featuring dried blood from my concrete encounter. It felt warm and good. I needed to cool myself off with an icy San Miguel beer.
The girls from the bar were on an intercept course with me. Business must be slow. I vowed to do everything I could to inject a money boost into their bar kitty.
Several girls were singing songs in praise of my sexual prowess. "He number one in the PI."
I was now promoted back to number one fuck in the PI. "Oh Yeah."
"I'm as broke as a broke dick benjo dog." I said.
"Why you bullshit me, you no broke GI, you number one civilian, with to much money, honey." "Mamma san say, get you number one bar tab, right now."
"Ok" "I'll take a cold beer and a hot girl."
Mamma-san says, " Why you number one in the PI with no money."
"I'm number one hundred and fifty at giving my money to benefit the future of young females in the PI."
Mamma-san says, "I send for Anne. She says you do her number one in the PI."
I don't remember Anne. I go back to drinking.
"Anne comes." Is announced.
Anne steps through the beaded thread back door into the bar.
She is beautiful. A step above the small side strip girls. I'm feeling proud of myself for doing her number one. I would feel even better if I could remember what I did.
Anne walks the walk, she stops next to me and says. "Why you no come back to the Bugs Bunny."
"Take a look, I need some healing time. I can barely talk. What did you do to me, what happened. I don't remember leaving the Bug's Bunny."
The cool beer had almost healed my fractured tongue root system.
"You number one drunk, number ten dancer with my friend. We go to hotel and get room."
The image of the room started to spin into my brain. I locked it in place. I remembered almost everything.
When we got to the room she took over. "You do everything I say and you will have a number one time."
I said. "How about a shower?"
"You shut up. Get your clothes off and take shower."
