That was a small party of travelers and expat in Phnom Penh - Cambodia where I was traveling in November. Nina was talking with 2 other people . everyone else was also chatting and getting to know each other.
I got bored and didn't know what to do.Honestly to say, I was a bit shy and sat lonely on the couch (I'm too bad huh!!?! ). I need something to occupy my self, to show that I totally feel comfortable. then I took my camera out, checked what I have got today and tried to take some picture of the party with no flash (bcause I don't want to take people's attention ) but I failed because my hands keep shaking due to 2 cans of beer and absolutely felt sleepy after that. did I ever say I'm so difficult to get drunk but very easy to fall asleep by alcohol drink? :D okay I will talk about that in another different post.
Then Michal came, sat on the couch and started talking to me in a very gentle way. ( Yeah We did get to know each other before) Hey. What are you doing? you taking photo? can I see it? blah blah blah ...I became more open and talked to him spontaneously. I'm not the type of girl who's too shy or too difficult to talk to . did have a good short talk with him. And ...
... Another guy approach and sat next to me. I forgot his name and only remember he's from USA, so just call him Mr.USA
Mr.USA was eating noodle and invited me to try it. Except from the thing he interrupted my conversation with Michal, he's a very interesting guy with lots of story about his traveling experience to tell. He's also quite handsome, funny and know how to attract others attention. That was actually a dilemma for me when 3 people were all sitting on the same couch. I want to continue talking with M. but Mr USA was more talk-active than M. He soon took control the conversation, constantly asked me new questions and somehow it made M feels ignored. He stood up and made a gesture to me that he's going to get more beer. But he did not come back again.
We had a chance to meet again, but hilariously, it was all the same : me - M - Mr.USA . And it eventually turned out with M left the conversation first and talked with some other guys.
We stayed very late and all went to night club. We danced and said nothing. and obviously, nothing more happened.
I now backed to my country, M's still working in Cambodia as a consultant and nothing connects between us. nothing! I know Nina will still join the party every weekend and maybe he will as well. And I can ask Nina do something for me. but I just can't do that....
I took some pictures while we were in the club and luckily got M's face inside the frame. he's not so handsome, honestly.... hehehe.
