Thinking back over the past two years I wonder when I first understood what it meant to be Bi-Sexual. Back then I was twenty-one and as straight as a carpenter's rule or at least that was how I saw myself. My parents were Chinese and although I was born in Sichuan, I was barely one when we made the move to Sydney, so I grew up looking Chinese but talking the Aussie lingo.
I am just over five feet three with perky C cup breasts long black silky hair and a heart-shaped face with a dimple on my left cheek. At school I did okay, but I was not what you would call a true scholar. Interested in art I attended art school studying graphic design which I passed but not without difficulty. My problem was simply that I was in love with my orgasm. Having lost my virginity at the age of eighteen a weekend barely went by without me sleeping with someone. At first, it was with school acquaintances but one Friday evening I met this twenty-five-year-old man the result is the best sex I had ever experienced.
The weekend that changed my life commenced as always when I stepped into my favorite nightclub and after a few relaxing drinks with friends began to dance. Now I'm a good dancer and use my skills to attract people to dance with me. On this particular evening, it was a woman who began to dance in front of me. She was a few years older than me and as she danced, I realized that she was not only incredibly fit but also one of the sexiest women I have ever seen.
We danced until the band took a break when she took my hand and approaching the bar ordered two whiskeys on the rocks and finding a vacant table, gave me a brief introduction telling me that she was Sam Samuelson and that she owned an exclusive boutique in the city. As she spoke, she twirled her glass in her hand while the other held mine her thumb softly massaging my wrist. At first, I was hesitant after all I had never been in a situation like this before. Usually, after the band takes a break, I find myself with some dish of a man who is doing his best to seduce me and now here I am being seduced by an incredibly sexy woman who is obviously very well-heeled.
I sat before her feeling her subtle fingers massage my wrist trying to get the courage to speak until she broke the ice by asking my name. At first, I stuttered which is something I have never done before until finding my voice I told her that I was Zoe Wong.
"Now that's a great start for a girl with a very beautiful name. So sweetie what do you do during the weekdays."
"Sorry, I'm an unemployed graphic artist. Although I completed art school last year, I have had a terrible time finding work."
"Well Zoe I think this evening is your lucky break why don't we grab another drink and after getting to know each other better we return to the dance floor."
I looked across at Sam as she ordered our drinks wondering what she meant by my lucky break. It was obvious that she had money and seeing she owned a women's boutique in the center of town she probably had contacts. The only thing that concerned me was that she was obviously using her charms to seduce me.
On returning she sat next to me where we began to talk about art which she obviously had a very good knowledge of. She told me about galleries in the town where friends of hers display their work and about one friend who combines her art with her career in design for a large marketing agency.
Sam knew that she had gotten my attention so finishing our drinks she led me onto the dance floor where we at first danced before each other. I soon understood that Sam was a very smooth worker as she used her sexy body to draw me in deeper. She had known from the very beginning that I was drawn in by her beauty and used it like a sculptor uses their chisel.
Later in the evening, the music slowed and so Sam drew me into her arms. As I was some three inches smaller than Sam, I found my head resting against her breast as we moved easily together until as the final number of the set ended, she walked me back to our table while her hand stroked across my lower back. Ordering another two whiskeys she sat close to me her fingers stroking my arm.
"Zoe, I want us to take lunch tomorrow where I am going to introduce you to my very old friend Tamika who is looking for an intern in graphic design. After we have finished lunch, I will then take you to my little boutique where I will dress you in clothes more suitable for working in one of the country's biggest marketing agencies."
"Oh my God, what do I say ... Oh fuck Sam thank you."
"Zoe you have a style which is something that I like. When I noticed you dancing, I knew that I had to get to know you. For now, forget tomorrow although we don't want to hang here much longer after all you need to be fresh for tomorrow. Lunch will only take forty minutes because Tamika needs to return for a meeting and then you and I will discuss the future."
Offering me a lift home Sam opened the door of her red Audi Coupe and during the drive, I found myself almost overwhelmed with emotion. I knew Sam was making a play for me and although I had never even imagined a same-sex relationship, I felt somewhat relaxed. Other than my giving directions we drove in silence until pulling up outside the little flat my father had bought when I commenced art school Sam swiveled in her seat.
"How about I have a car here at eleven tomorrow that means we can sit with a light drink before lunch."
"Oh, Sam how can I thank you."
Saying this I hugged her and expecting her to kiss me was surprised when returning the hug she reminded me about eleven in the morning.
It was a restless night of tossing and turning thinking about all that had happened in the past eighteen hours. I couldn't believe that this time tomorrow I will be employed with the country's most prestigious marketing company. And then it hit me ... Sam. It was due to Sam taking a liking for me that all this was happening, but she was obviously a lesbian what happens if I reject her. Although I told myself to cross my bridges when I arrive at them my night was destroyed.
Due to my chaotic night, my morning started much the same when I went for a wake me up shower only to find we had a power outage and the hot water heater wouldn't turn on. Stamping naked back to my room I tore my favorite pair of silk knickers in my haste to put them on. This was when I sat on my bed crying wishing that I had never gone clubbing.
Having sat on my bed for way too long I then had a mad rush selecting the right clothes for my important luncheon which should have been easy because I only have two outfits suitable for this kind of occasion, but the problem is how to match them with tops. It was almost ten-forty five when I stepped onto the footpath outside my flat and looking up the street noticed Sam's car sitting at the lights. I was impressed when she leaned across to open the car door and sliding onto the plush leather seat, I accepted her an almost shy hug.
As we sat in the high-class restaurant Sam explained that Tamika was a very busy woman and that once she arrives, we will not have much time before she has to return to the office. She was telling me how she and Tamika were old friends, but we were interrupted when a tall woman of African appearance arrived at our table. For a few minutes, it was a noisy greeting as Tamika and Sam hugged and kissed but then Sam stood back to introduce me.
"Darling this is the young woman I phoned you about please meet Zoe Wong who is a graduate in Graphic Design and desperate for gainful employment."
Tamika took my hand and shaking it introduced herself telling me that she was excited to meet me. Having done the introductions Sam ordered for us while Tamika explained that she required an intern who if successful would be taken on full time once the internship was completed. She sat looking at me for several minutes until asking if such work was of interest to me and when I said yes, she simply told me that I was hired.
For the next thirty-odd minutes Sam and Tamika caught up on everything they had been doing and so I sat with my mind a whirl until Tamika stood to leave and turning towards me told me that I would start the following Monday.
"Well, I think we should think about celebrating your successful application."
"Or maybe I should be thanking you for introducing me to Tamika."
Ignoring me Sam suggested we finish our lunch before returning to her boutique where she had a few outfits laid out for me. I thought about saying that I couldn't afford expensive clothes but thinking better of it remained silent.
It was only a short walk from the restaurant to Sam's shop and as we walked Sam kept talking about ideas on how we should celebrate my new job. Arriving at the boutique I was stunned into silence as I took in the opulence of the business. It was a big shop where it had been joined by the shops on both sides. Looking around I noticed women who were wearing scarves way above what I could afford assisting customers.
