55 Classic

I dont remember where I learned this, but I always hear a distant voice from my memories and one of it told me like this:

"Woman is hard to handle. When they are angry, you have two route to choose. Kneel and asked forgiveness. It'll make you look weak and look like a fool. Only applicable if youre desperate. Second one, is give them space and give them something to appease them after that. Something they like. Just imagine it as a tribute to the gods, it'll be easier. This is only applicable for matured woman. Remember that, son" I tried so many time to remember who told me that, but couldn't. In the end, I stopped caring and just trusting it.

I had a bouquet of flowers with me. And sweets on my left hand, hoping that it'll appease my wife. I'm spying her while Waiting for her to open up and give this present to her.

So, what happened when you see your friend that you haven't seen for a long time touch and flirt with your wife? Of course, I summoned my best skill, I need to cut that hand so it doesn't touch my wife the second time again. But before I even had the chance to do so, my wife had taken action and completely 'topped' Arya in mere second. What's more, she had shoved that spicy red fruit that I had come to like after trying it several times.

I was trying so hard to tamp down the laughter that bubbling inside of me. I can imagine what he was feeling right now. The first time tasting that fruit made me dash out to the hot spring to wash my tongue. Out of the world experience as if your soul was more than ready to part away with your body and never return.

Hearing my wife threatening poor Arya to put the chillies paste on his, family jewel made my heart go to him and pity him. I can stop this. But that would incite more anger from my wifey.. should I save him or not?

It didn't take lot of time to make up his mind.

But the moment he heard the last part from his friend,he lost his pity and glare at him.

My wifey lift her head up and laugh out loud before she look at Arya with a creepy smile. It chilled me down to my bones. I dont know why, but I reminded me how she had cut the Mad lakh's dick and head easily like a butter. Instinctively, I changed my hand position to cover my own.

"I only allow one man to say that me before and I regret it. Then I vowed, if any guy would dare to utter it again on my face And act on it, they will regret it instead."

Her eyes flashed red and that shut Arya up. I am sure, it wasn't what she had said that shut him but the pressure that came from her. I'm not sure if she realised it. But she is giving off quite a tremendous power that palpable on the air. It sucked your air out and sadly in my current condition, it affected me too.

She lift both of her arms with a flair.

Both of us already sweating hard trying to push off the effect of her power, but still it's a hard work. She keep it up for ten minutes but after seeing Arya not making his move, her anger toned down.

"I don't know what is your purpose of life, or why you are fucking like there's no tomorrow. Man up will you. That dick down there is not a tool for you to show off your manliness. That is god gift for you to create a new life not for your own selfish desire and gain. If you want to show your manliness, show how you carry yourself and act like a man.."

"advice I dont need a stranger to preach me"

"True. But heed my words, Desire won't cover whatever emptiness you have in your heart. It never will since it's only a temporary reprive" she look at him with pity, before shaking her head and leaving him there.

I put all my presents away inside my spatial ring, still hiding in the shadow. Watching my wifey retreating back, I know what she said was meant for reminding herself too. Loneliness. That is what I see, whenever I see her that way.

Arya slowly stood up and brush off his clothes. Sighing in relief he had his gaze trained where my wife had gone to. He had this conflicted look in his gaze before turning around and leaving the place.

This time around, it was my time to spy on my old time friend.

**************

It seem his experience after the confrontation with Iiana had toned down his activity. I know him too well that the words of new life totally bugged him out. He is in no way an impotent man. It just, that just how the way it is. It is hard for him to have a child. He was the only child of his parents. A curse passed down from generations to generation. They get to live for a long, long time but in return the probability for them to get child is one or none at all. Hearing his tale a long time ago, made me rethink my situation. We play too much for the sake of what we called experiments,and I found out that none of it bore any fruit or in our case, child. I grew tired from the games and stopped but it seems my friends had taken his game to another new level and never stopped.

Arya was sitting alone on top of a rooftop, nursing a jar of wine while watching the night sky.

I took the initiative and sat beside him.

"Well, well, well... look who had come. The great man himself had finally grace his presence on this lowly man"

"I see you never change"

"Should I? Living too long is quite taxing. You run out of idea how to have fun and everything is just... bland. Even this wine taste bland" he make a shitface while narrowing his eyes on the jar.

Actually, what he said is true. Which is why I've been trying so hard to die for centuries but failed. And just when I was about to die, I met Iiana, thank God for that.

"So, why did you come to find me? I thought my existence pained you so much since I remind you how cursed our life is. I mean, that 's why we parted hundred and forty five years ago."

"I want to live longer now"

That surprised Arya, he look at me like I had grown another head.

"You lived longer than I did. The time hadn't been to kind to you, more than me. Why are you suddenly saying that you want to live longer?"

I shrugs.

"Few months ago, I was poisoned and I need your help to cleanse my body and detox all the effect of the poison."

"Knowing you, you wont find me if you can get that kind of help from someone else."

"I'm poisoned by a "

"Aha! And thats why you came to me" Arya laugh drily before taking another gulp from jar.
