She can't be gone Lexis. No she can't leave me here."
Cain was yelling on the top of his voice as Alexis broke the news of her departure to him.
"By now she should be touching down at Rio De Janeiro," he said with a smile.
Grabbing his shirt furiously, he said, "You know she's leaving but you didn't let me know."
"She asked me not to tell you. Afterall she's just a call girl," he winked and clicked two fingers in 'o' shape as he called the last two words.
"She means more than a call girl to me!" he screamed. "Call her my s*x partner at best."
Alexis waved a finger at his face.
"Stop fibbing, you have Cassy, don't you?"
With clenched teeth, he said, "Don't call that name, Lexis,I and Cassy are done. I'm just waiting for her to sign the divorce paper."
Alexis grinned. He knew what he did--how it was his handiwork that Cain is leaving Cassy. He is indeed a green snake--maybe a chameleon.
He didn't actually come by his cruel mind by chance. He learnt it intentionally from a friend, just few weeks after Cain and Cassy began to date.
"Darmian, I know you can help me out..." he looked serious. Darmian has not seen him this way for a long time. Something is really eating him up.
"Mention it my friend. I won't hesitate."
"Teach me how to womanise."
The laughter that follows is expected. It's so odd someone is asking for this.
"I mean it Darmian," he spoke further.
"I'll teach you," he replied after a brief purse. "Ha ha ha, ha..." he broke into a new dimension of laughter.
Learning from Darmian was a new kind of experience to him. It makes him realise that there's nothing that cannot be learnt.
Holding up some thick papers, Darmian said "Look at these photographs."
"The women you have screwed?" he asked with his eyes widening up.
Darmian nodded affirmatively.
"Look at this. You should know her."
Alexis looked with interest.
"Isn't this Julie the billionaire's wife?"
"Exactly bro. She sneaks to meet me. Her husband is impotent."
"You're crazy...how did you...?" He looked at his friend in amazement.
"Where do you think I get a lot of dough from? From a tree shedding money in winter?"
Clapping, he said "Bravo! Now you'll teach me these tricks, won't you?"
"You must have really been hurt by Cain."
"You should see how he made me feel bad. The ridicule was so bad."
A quick reflection of what Cain told Alexis after winning the bet:
"Man, guess what I spent your 50 bucks on," Cain said exuding mockery.
"Go ahead, say it," Alexis waved a finger.
Concurrently with the wave of Alexis' finger, he replied, "Undies, for Cassy. I wanna see her in them each time I f**k her."
"Keep it up man, it's your luck," he replied lackadaisically.
It was expected that Cain would mock him, but he would not let it slide. He will surely serve him a sour breakfast he won't be able to resist.
"You see, Alexis, women are highly emotional beings. To get into them, hit them at the right time. That time when they are high on emotions. Could be positive, could be negative emotions. Just make sure they are high on it."
Like a student assimilating the lectures of his professor, he nodded his head and swallowed saliva.
"Mmm," he sounded along.
"Don't go simping before them. Show them some alpha. Let them know you sleep around with many of them."
"Why? Won't I be scaring them away? Like I'm telling them there's no room for..."
"They'll keep coming instead," he butted in. "Women like rivalry, competition and jealousy."
Alexis smiled broadly. It was as if he just invented a machine that can take one to the Hubble Space and back in minutes.
"I swear I'll never know this secret judging by my own thoughts."
"It works like magic, not just on girls, but also on guys who you wanna oppress."
That was what he wanted to hear. Cain should feel lesser in worth seeing him cruising with different women everyday.
"I want him to start feeling less of himself. He should get jealous of a womanising lifestyle and..."
"More like giving a monkey dildo to obtain its banana, right?"
"Exactly," Alexis responded and their mood was lit with scathing laughter.
While the monkey is trying to eat the inedible dildo, you can have its abandoned banana and finish it off.
Cassy's things are even looking softer than banana. He's been dying to have a feel of them. To handle them in reality, just as he has often done in his dreams is his priority. He won't stop at anything to get this done.
Settling down with a girl like Cassy seems to be the ultimate goal too.
Now that Maria has departed, the next task is to convince Cain to follow her--to go find her and if possible stick with her forever after.
Even if he doesn't want to go find her, he should be kept busy with many random girls. With this, a lot of cracks would be left on the wall to allow his gecko self creep in.
Like coming out of a pensive mood, he said, "I just thought of something, Cain."
"What's that?" He was impatient.
"Create a s*x adventure for yourself. You see, you are not necessarily a happy man by sticking to one woman. Cassy first, now you're head and heel over Maria."
Cain stayed calm. It seems Alexis' advice is sinking in. He is clicking the table.
"Why can't you be a playboy--like me? Have many women around. Sleep with anyone at will. You'll always get bored sticking with just one. I'm in this thing and I can tell you how happy I am."
"Lucky you," he said. "But you're right. I can give it a try. Get many ladies out there laid. It's really gonna be a wild adventure."
Cain wanted to do it, perhaps it would let him get over the thought of Maria. He has been restless ever since she left.
"Hook me up with one of them. You have them aplenty, don't you?"
Whenever Cain looks at his friend, he gets amazed. It rankles with him how a once 'woo-shy' folk suddenly becomes a romance prodigy.
"But how did you become this way?" he asked unexpectedly.
Alexis laughed it off and said, "I've always been like this. Just that you didn't notice it."
"Lies, I know you more than you ever know yourself, man. When Roselyn came flirting, advancing and expecting you to shoot your shots, you cowered and freaked out."
It was a past he doesn't want to remember. Something that he still regrets not doing in recent times. Were it to be now, he would have devoured and 'redeflowered' her over and over again.
Lying, he said, "It's not what you think, man. Roselyn isn't my spec. Her face's too wide for my liking."
"I know you're not being honest. Well, that's by the way. Now tell me, who do you have for me this night?"
"Wait and see." He snapped his fingers.
Vanessa catwalked towards the direction of the seated two. Her straight legs had an antelope gait as she walked in majestically. Her black skin as smooth as velvet caught Cain's attention.
"Is she the one?" Cain asked. He could not wait.
"Of course yes," Alexis said. "Vanessa Bandicoot, meet Cain. Cain, Vanessa for the night." He was standing up to leave them all alone.
"Come here baby," Cain reached for her. She sat right on his legs.
"Argh!" A voice of horror just tore the air apart right now, just when Vanessa's bountiful buttocks settled on Cain's laps.
"Who's this?" Vanessa asked, pointing to the intruder, standing right before them. Now Cain needs to do some talking to clear the air.
