Chen picked out the farthest booth in the back to sit and nurse her drink in. She melted into the seat, eased herself back and began the very serious business of relaxing. She hiked her skirt up under the table and stretched, spreading her legs. She was a small, thin woman, a classic Asian beauty-- long, straight, jet black hair, very high cheek bones and lovely almond eyes. She had thick, sensuous lips, a turned up nose, soft shoulders, and budding little breasts. She had been raised in a traditional hill country culture, and she didn't always feel comfortable in the U.S. She sometimes didn't understand the customs and practices that most Americans took for granted, and she got confused about what was expected of her at times. John, who was the first white guy she'd ever dated, liked to play little jokes on her-jokes she sometimes didn't get even when he explained them. It made her feel awkward, like she was being made fun of. He pushed her to have sex and she resisted. To her, sex was something to be taken very seriously. It was something her culture controlled very tightly and she retained those values. She wasn't a prude, she had had sex before coming to America. Indeed, she'd had very much sex, all under the sanction of her village's elders, including her mother. Her people weren't monogamous, far from it. They believed that everyone needed to express themselves sexually or they would suffer ailments and conditions that would hinder their happiness, and thus the well being of the village.
She sat lost in thought of life in her village-she missed it terribly, the beautiful countryside, the mountains, the kids that ran happily along the paths. She missed her old boy friends... and she missed having sex. Oh, she had sex with Steve. She had sex with John too, for that matter, after he insisted. That kind of sex wasn't very enjoyable for her. It was too plain and passionless. Both of these men would climb on her in the missionary position and thrust away for a few short minutes, thinking they were satisfying her.
