Cheating my ex-girlfriend's sister

[ilikeoldchangke]

It was one of those phone calls that would make you stare at the screen for a few seconds before you reacted. I’m serious.


Looking at the number and the name alone brought back quite a bit of memories for me. After all, the person calling had been part of my life for a while some time ago.


There was this gut squeezing sensation followed by a little dash of uncertainty as I stared a little daze at the phone.



One of the things I dreaded was to receive a call from my Ex-girlfriends.


It could be nothing, then again, it could be something. She might suddenly say ; “ Hi, you free to attend your son’s 1st birthday ?” or something.



Maybe just to spite you, she wants to invite you to her wedding ?


Maybe she started selling insurance and her first victim would be her ex-bf.



Susanne’s name flashed a few times before it went off.



I stared at the screen again as I thought about our 1 year relationship some time back.



I hope she accidentally hit the dial button.




Maybe she’s looking for another James ?


Perhaps she’s drunk or something ? She just wanted to find someone to scream at.



30 seconds passed and the phone did not ring again as I heaved a sigh of relieve.


It’s the weekend and I have no wish to deal with remnants and past memories of previous relationships. Surely it had to be a unintended call, an accident.




5th December 2014

7.45pm



It was a typical Friday evening. Finished worked, made some calls, meet friends up for drinks. Simple Friday evening.


Simple.


Or so I thought.


I had initiated a meet up with a few ex colleagues for drinks and to catchup.
Sam was the only one that could reach on time for dinner and some drinks while the other 2 , Thomas and Welly were en route back from site to join us.



Their offices is along Sims Ave and the logical place for cheap and good food would be our very own red light district in Geylang. There is no better place for a good meal and ice cold beer while you do a bit pf people watching.



Sam was my senior in the previous firm and we quarrelled on the very 1st day. It was not just an argument but flat out shouting. As unlikely as it seemed, we ended up being close colleagues because we had 1 thing in common.


We’re straight talkers and we don’t take shit from anyone.


He admitted that he deliberately came over and offered to buy me lunch the next day because he thought I would not accept it, especially not since he asked in a insincere and gangster like manner.


It was his morbid way of welcoming newbies to the firm. Sick I must say but old birds in old companies have their own pet peeves.

I accepted his treat and I ordered up a shitload of food from the tze char stall forcing myself to finish them.



I still remembered him looking at the food as I repeated his exact words.


James : You tell me to order as much as I can one hor, as long as I can finish.


Sam : Er…ok… ok.. go ahead.



I stuffed myself full with the food and Sam was presented with a 90 dollar Tze char bill for lunch for 2 pax.



As he reeled in shock at the bill, I paid for it and said it was a joke.


Sam : Knn… you really can eat ah….


James : I was just joking…. I feel like puking …. Wanted to teach you a lesson….



After a good laugh and a afternoon of tummy ache, we hit off right away with each other.




Anyway, I lasted only a year at the firm before a better offer was made and I took it.


Thomas and Welly were my teammates in the same firm and we are all movie junkies interested in 1 particular genre, Horror, zombies and gore. They could not click with Sam in terms of work as much as I did but when the conversation topics came to the occult and the gory, everyone immediately put aside their difference and chatted like old buddies.


Sam spoke after putting down his phone and adding that the guys were on their way.

Sam : Who’s calling you ? Answer la…


James : My ex… I think she accidentally dialled the wrong number… .. we broke up more than a year ago…


Sam : Maybe she inviting you to your baby full month ? .. you got accidentally shoot inside before you break up ?




I ignored his jibe and poured more beer for both of us.


We were smacked right in middle of Geylang. After a good meal of Beef hor fun, we found a nice coffee shop with a decent view and ordered beer and some chicken wings. We were too hungry to wait for Welly and Thomas.


Leaning back on the plastic chair, I took in a breathe of the polluted air filled with smokes and car exhaust and I stretched out my arms. Nothing beats a ice cold beer after a good meal in this country.


As the cold brew slid down my throat, my senses felt more alive than ever as I take in the sights, the sound and the ambience of Geylang.



I saw a few cute looking girls crossing the road, their arms interlocked with each other. They threw me a smile, or maybe they threw everyone seated behind me a smile as they head towards the alley.


I raised my mug of beer at one of them as she turned away and whispered something to her friend before laughing together.



Sam : I think they want to make you an offer…


James : Is it ? …. Are you their pimp ?



He laughed and switched his attention to another lone girl walking over in a black shimmering dress and 3 inch heels.


She’s hot, long shoulder length hair, black as coal. Her breast looked like they were going to spill out as she approached some uncles having their evening drink. Her heavily accented Chinese gave her nationality away immediately.


Sam : Wah… this one… this one…. Ning nar beh…. Her breast… wah lau… confirm is fake one… the way it bounce, cannot… cannot….. fail…



James : You are barely 5 years older than me…. Can you don’t be such an uncle ? ..


Sam : I’m turning 39 in 3 months…. I am an uncle…



He gestured excitedly to another that just got off the car.



Sam : Wah this one… this one…. The hair so messy…. Must be just kena jia lat jia lat one….. face so black… haha… maybe the guy mess up her make up….



He jabbed me excitedly as he spied a girl he had tried before.


Sam : Eh that one…. I try before…. ice princess….got the cold cold look…. I like this kind… machiam I owe her a lot of money one…. Haha…



James : Yes …yes yes….



Sam : Actually I like those smile and smile and smile kind…. But nowadays very hard to find….


He gave a long sigh before answering his own statement.



Sam : Can’t blame them also la…. Sigh…. Got to let ppl fuck…, who in their right mind would do that and still smile at you nicely…. Tio bo ? Oei James ….


James : Yes… yes…



Sam : Eh are you listening to me… ? you heard what I just said ?



James : Yes… have… … you go meet the people session lor…. Everyday the MP tio jia lat jia lat…. Still smile at you…



He threw a middle finger at me before going back to his beer.



Another cute and petite girl in pants and white tube walked up, her buttocks tightly wrapped with her white pants. Several patrons nudged each other on the arms and leered shamelessly at the girl as she sat down with a old man drinking on his own.


Looking at the balding old man, the only thing I noticed was the watch that cost me my annual salary, reflecting the neon lights off its solid gold bezel.



I let my eyes lingered a little longer at the girl, she’s petite and sweet but not my cup of tea. Good body though.



Sam : James… I think that one… underage leh…. ….Eh this other 1 good, got the local OL kind of feeling…. Eh look look…



I continued to look at the petite girl in white and the uncle, ignoring my friend. I was more interested in the uncle actually, not that I’m gay.


My curiosity was with his choice to keep his wedding ring on as he stroked the girl on her leg.



Sam : Wah James… eh this 1 confirm your type…. She on the phone… I think tio bao liao…. Going to start work…. Eh… quick …look…

[ilikeoldchangke]

I turned back and looked towards the direction where my friend was gesturing with his chin as he sipped his beer.


The moment I locked eyes with the girl, I felt this jolt of current running into my stomach.



Sam : Eh you ho seh liao… she looking at you… I think you her type of meat.


I blinked my eye twice as I looked at the very girl who hung up her phone after another quick bark of instructions into the phone.


Yes, she’s the one with the typical OL look you see in Raffles place or the Marina financial district. She’s not very tall, 1.6m.If she requires an additional boost, she just needs to shop for a good pair of heels.


She’s the OL with tight figure hugging clothes and the well done up hair. She has enough makeup on to bring out her features but not to the point other girls will bitch about how thick her foundation is.



She’s definitely also the one that you secretly wished you could push onto the table and enter her from behind while she tries to balance on her 2 inch heels. Her shoulder length hair gave her the flexibility of choice on what to do with them.


There was enough volume to style them up or to let them loose. She chose to let them fall gracefully and naturally down the sides of her face, framing her chic facial features.



Her branded bag hung like a statement across her left arm as she walked towards my table in a huff.



My mind tried to wrap around the situation as I immediately checked my phone again.



There was no other miss calls. Only 1 from Susanne.


This has got to be a dream of some sort.


Numerous pairs of eyes traced the figure of the approaching girl, smiles broke out on their faces without them even realising it as they looked at the smooth hairless legs that disappeared into a pair of black heels.


She’s no street walker but all eyes would not be on that simple silver chain around her neck. Instead they would naturally go to the ample cleavage covered by the inadequate piece of cloth you call a blouse.



A pale pink blouse with buttons undone, it showed off enough. Her light colours bra pushed against her blouse, leaving a slight imprint of her bra while forcing your imagination to visualise the rest.


Something that tells you she’s not a slut, but she aint’ virgin either. Her grey skirt was paired with a stylish belt made from a colourful piece of scarf, twisting in a intricate manner through the wooden buckle.



A matching smaller piece of scarf wound itself around the handle of her handbag.



She may not be the tallest girl with the most proportionate figure in the vicinity, but it was without a doubt, she beat them all hands down in terms of class.


As she pulled back a chair from our table, Sam’s smile disappeared from his face as he set his beer down.



Sam : 美女。。。今晚去那里玩 ? 。。



She turned and gave him a look before turning back to face me as she replied.


Susanne : Your pick up line is from the sixties I assume…



Even without waiting for Sam to reply she jabbed her finger at me and said.


Susanne : Why are you afraid to pick up my call ? guilty because you are in Geylang is it ?



I was still a little taken aback at this sudden meeting with my ex that it took a few seconds for me to react properly.


James : It… it was just a miss call … come on…. I thought you accidentally hit the dial button ….


Susanne looked upwards with her eyes for a moment before licking her lips in a irritated manner.


Susanne : Why would I accidentally dial your number… ? Does your name start with ‘ A’ ?


James : No… but you might have named me as ‘A’ for being the best Ex you ever had.



She gave me a look with her emotionless eyes and said she needed to talk to me.


James : Ok go ahead…


Susanne : Not here….



Sam interrupted at that moment.


Sam : James … she’s…. your ex ah…



I looked at Sam and made a quick introduction.


James : Sam… this is Susanne, Susanne, this is Sam…

Sam : this sucks…. Being seen in Geylang by your Ex…. Says a lot about moving on after.. …


I showed him a finger as he turned away to drink his beer.



Susanne : Jokes aside James……. We need to talk…



Susanne went on to tell me that she had wanted to call me the next day but she happened to glance out of her car at the traffic light and saw me sitting at the coffee shop.



Susanne : I had to do a double take to make sure it’s you but oh well…. I don’t judge… anyway we broke up…


I rolled my eyes and told her I was just there was supper.


James : I just came here for dinner….



She looked at the food on the table and nodded her head in a sincere and understanding manner.



Susanne : I know… you came for the chicken….


She pat the back of my hand twice and nodded before twitching her left side of her lips upwards.



Susanne : It’s ok… you have you needs…


I almost puke out my beer but she put up her hand and spoke in a serious manner.


Susanne : Ok, this is serious James… I need your help.

She got up and I followed behind her.


Sam : Enjoy bro …



He called out audibly with a snigger and I could see the uncles from a few tables away sniggering at me.


I was trying hard not to feel embarrassed but Susanne turned and gave Sam a wink before linking arms with me as we walked down the alley into the middle of the red light district.



James : Where are we going ? The hotel ?


Susanne : You wished… I parked back down there….




James : You have some balls…. Parking here and walking down this alley on your own… Not scared ah ?


She ignored me and led me to her car and I got in.



She closed the door, started the engine and let the car cool down.



James : Eh, you leave your engine running like that…. Wait other people…



She ignored my comment and went straight into the conversation.



Susanne : James… remember my sister Xueling ?


James : Ermm.. .. yes…. Only met her once….
Susanne took a deep breath before telling me that her dad passed away 6 months ago.


James : Oh…



I was at a loss for words and I awkwardly opened up my arms, trying to offer her a hug but she just hit and push me away.



James : I’m… I’m sorry to hear that…. Are you ok… ?


She nodded with a sigh.



Susanne : My dad left us some money…. About 270k each…. For me and my sister…



James : ermmm ok……. And….why are you telling me all this ??



I could see Susanne looking at her heels before directing her eyes to the steering wheel and back to the windscreen as she searched for the right words.



She gripped the steering wheel with both her hands, turned her body to the left, causing her skirt to ride up a little. She was fighting to get the words out.


As our eyes met, I could see them starting to tear up a little.


I could tell she was worried, a little scared and desperately helpless. I could read her like a book, we were close before, even to the point I considered settling down for her.


It’s been a while since I last saw that look on her.



And when the words left her mouth, I felt every hair on the back of my neck stood on it’s end.

Susanne : I want you….. to help me cheat Xueling out of every single cent….



…………………………………………………………………..

[ilikeoldchangke]

James : What !!! …


I stared at her in disbelief.



Susanne did not look like she was joking. Instead she just stared at me waiting for my questions.


I could not bring myself to speak.


Susanne : Ok look… we’re not fighting over the will or anything…. It’s just that…she’s being cheated of her money…



James : What ??


I shook my head a little as I rejected a call from Sam.


James : I don’t understand…



Susanne : Here’s the short version…


Susanne went on to tell me that Xueling recently got into a relationship with this guy, Roger. They’ve been together for a couple of months and that was when Susanne found out that Xueling has been transferring sums of money out of her account.



Susanne : Xueling is a simple girl… she doesn’t spend much… she’s like a kid still stuck in her schooling years….too innocent and pure for her own good..


Xueling works as a admin assistant for a metal trading company. She’s a simple and quiet girl with very little needs. Even with her 2k salary, she still managed to save more than half every month.


Susanne : She stays with me, I pay all the bills, I buy her all her stuff, she is just someone who doesn’t spend…


Susanne started to get a little exasperated as she tried to explain her sister’s spending habits.



Susanne : She charges less than 200 to her credit card and half are for her transport top ups…. She’s a very thrifty and simple girl… but recently, she’s been transferring sums between 3-5k out of her account.




The withdrawals were random, 3k once this week, maybe 4k twice the next, then another 5k and so on.


It was steadily draining her.



Susanne tried to talk to her about it but Xueling got upset that her sister is meddling in her affairs.


Susanne : I’m concerned that she gets hurt and cheated….. she refused to talk to me… and I’m 100% fucking sure that Roger is bleeding her dry… he’s a jerk, a jackass…



I nodded and waited for Susanne to calm down.



James : Ok… ok… calm down….



I took a deep breath and tried to put it as nicely as I could over to Susanne .



James : Babe…


That was how I called her when we were together.


James : I meant this in the nicest way….


James : This is…. Singpapore…. You can’t…. do some ocean eleven trick and get away with it….



I could see Susanne breathing a little heavier as she looked at me.



James : Let’s go to the police ok ? … I’m sure if there is something going on… they would get to the bottom of this…


Susanne : You don’t believe me…. You don’t believe me either…



I could see she was starting to get upset.


James : Babe… look…



She pointed to the door and asked me to get out.


I sighed as she hit me several times before I got out and she drove off in a huff.



I shook my head and walked back to the coffee shop to see Welly and Thomas at the table.


Welly : Oei James… I heard you just went in leh… so fast ah…


Sam : How was it…. Good bo ?



James : I shook my head… got chased out halfway…



The guys laughed and we continued our drinks and chat late into the night catching up on old times.


6th December 2014

Saturday

8.45am



I was about to head out for breakfast when another familiar number appeared on my phone.

It was Susanne’s good friend. We hung out frequently when I was dating her pal.


I stared at it again before picking it up.



My mind reconnected with the conversation I had with Susanne the night before as I spoke.


James : Hi Charmaine…


Charmaine : Hey… you make my friend cry last night ah…



James : Wah lau…. Did she tell you what is going on ?? Why did she want me to cheat her sister ? … about some money thing…



Charmaine : Yes… yes… I’m aware…


James : Is everything ok with her ? ….. can you knock some sense into her ? she stressed out over work recently ?



Charmaine : Not really, it’s this matter that’s stressing her out…. So… you can help or not…



James : Come on…. Not you too…


Charmaine went on to give me a little more background regarding the matter. That it all started when Roger actually met Xueling at a café. They exchanged contacts and things took off from there.


Xueling started staying out late and even skipping work a few weeks after they started dating. Susanne objected strongly against the relationship but Xueling did not care.



Charmaine : The sisters quarrelled quite badly… and it’s come to a stage when Xueling is preparing to move out…. Susanne is stressed out…. Her dad passed on not too long….. she’s the only kin left and… well… you can pretty much guess the rest…



James : But… how to cheat Xueling of her money ? sell her a magic rock or something ah ? this…. This won’t work la… and why me ?



Charmaine seemed like she wanted to say something but held back before adding something as a afterthought.



Charmaine : Well, you’re one of the…. You know… naughtier guy Susanne dated…. I guess that’s why…



James : What ? Is that your impression of me ?



She ignored my question and tried to sway my decision.



Charmaine : Look James… I cannot force you to do this if you don’t want do but at least go take a look for yourself…



She offered to bring me to see Xueling and Roger and I had a hard time making up my decision.


Charmaine : come on… just look at them from a distance and you tell me whether she needs help . … see for yourself…



James : Sigh…. Did Susanne put you up to this….


Charmaine : Yes. .. I’m her lawyer…


James : You’re doing maritime law…. Not this…



Charmaine : Get changed…. I’ll pick you in in an hour.



I dropped the phone and brushed my hair in a frustrated manner.


This feels like a bad idea.




10.00am



Charmaine picked me up from my place in Bedok and we chatted casually in the car. She drove me to Susanne’s place in Siglap, a small old house along Yarrow Garden. A quiet neighbourhood, almost kampung like from what I remembered.



She kept checking her phone and I could see it was Susanne who was messaging her.


We parked a few units down and she killed the engine.



James : Now what ?


Charmaine : Wait ah…. Wait…

[Tai_zi21]

Wah Wah Wah!!!!! New story liao!!!!!

[ilikeoldchangke]

15 minutes later I heard the distinct roar of a powerful bike coming down the road. A Harley.


The bike pulled up outside the girls’ house and a guy stepped off the bike.


As he stepped off , he removed his helmet and I was thought I was looking at some movie star arrive at the set.


He works out, I could tell from his buffed arms and toned body shape. He removed his black leather jacket, revealing a white singlet that looked like it was tailored for his body.


Ok, not really that tone but still in shape. The jacket made him appear bigger than he actually was.


Leaning against his bike, he sent a few messages before lighting up a cigarette. He has a diamond stud in his left ear and a intricate tattoo on his left forearm. With his weathered and well worn jeans and a pair of heavy boots, he looked pretty decent.



The rugged kind of look that would not look out of place if he was a tomb raider or having an adventure alongside Indiana jones.



Charmaine : Wah…. Look at that….the bad boy look girls dig… haha



I gave Charmaine a disgusted look and replied her with disdain.




James : What are you ? ….. 18 ?


She shot me a stare and said I would not understand.



Charmaine : You don’t know one lah…. Haizz…


James : I can have that bad boy streak too you know.


Charmaine burst out laughing, tapping on her steering wheel.


Charmaine : hahaha… sorry James… you’re not bad…. Just naughty la….



She pointed a finger at Roger whose back was facing us and added ;


Charmaine : Bad boy…


She tilted her head sideways at me and added with a smile ;


Charmaine : Naughty boy… hahaha…



I could feel a tight squeeze at my heart, something along the line of having a heart attack.


Charmaine : You cannot deny that he has that rugged look girls like la…. If not Susanne would not have got together with him after you..…….



The moment the words left her mouth she froze.


I turned sharply towards Charmaine who looked like she had just let on some secret that would cause her to lose her life.



Her eyes widened and she immediately held my wrist.



Charmaine : look James… I can explain…



James : What !! ?? That piece of shit is Susanne’s ex ??
She started her explanation, everything coming out in bits and pieces but I was not paying much attention to her.


My eyes drifted to the gate where Xueling just came out from. She’s a splitting image of Susanne but with a more slender frame and perhaps 5cm shorter. Her hair is shorter, slightly longer than a bobbed cut with her fringe stylishly cutting diagonally across her petite doll like face.



She looked almost like she was floating on cloud nine as she skipped and hopped over to her boyfriend. That feeling of first love. That intoxication feeling most of us surely remembered.


How could we forget that drug like trance ?


Where every moment of the day felt slow unless we were with our other half. It’s like as if our body would cease to function without seeing the one we love for that day. Xueling had that same blissful look on her face as she took over a helmet and hopped onto the bike.



She’s a conservative dresser, just simple jeans and a grey t-shirt.



Charmaine : Are you listening to me James ??



I could hardly make out what Charmaine was saying. Hardly anything registered.



Now that I know Roger was Susanne’s ex, everything starts falling into place. The questions I have yet to ask, the bits which didn’t fit, everything was starting to link up.



I may not know Xueling well but I knew she listened to Susanne and she’s a pretty conservative and timid girl.


There was no way she would readily give her contact to some stranger she met at a café unless she knew him from before.

Roger must have made his move from there.


If he had been anyone else other that Roger, Susanne would probably have an easier time dealing with him but this was different. Anything coming from Susanne would probably sound wrong to Xueling given their past.



There was no way Xueling would listen to her sister.



The bike roared off the small road and Charmaine was shaking my arm.


Charmaine : James !... James !..... listen….


She told me that Susanne might have known Roger when she was with me, but she only got together with him after we broke up.



Charmaine : He’s not the cause I think……. Not him…! They only met like once or twice when you were still with Susanne ….


She desperately waved her palms at me as I stared at her.



Charmaine : Besides, they’re only together for 2 months…. And you know… Susanne’s dad was sick and all…. Then… then…



At this moment, another figure came out the front gate.


Susanne had on a white work blouse and you could see she was halfway through her makeup. She was still wearing her sleep shorts, the combination looked queer and a little funny.


Picture a woman in pink sleep shorts with a Minnie mouse print and a formal work blouse walking towards you in flip flops in the morning.


Charmaine : Oh shit… shit… Susanne is coming…

Charmaine grabbed onto me and started shaking me.


Charmaine : Don’t tell her you know Roger is her ex ok…. Don’t tell her… I’m not supposed to tell you !!



I gave her an incredulous look as she pleaded with me.


Charmaine : She’s approaching… she’s coming liao !... please James… I owe you a treat… keep it to yourself yah …



Susanne was barely 5 meters away as she went for the backseat.


I could not resist a snarky reply and I told Charmaine off.



James : You’re her lawyer…. What can she do to you… ?



Right before the rear passenger door opened, Charmaine got off a quick rebuff at me before shutting up.



Charmaine : You’re right…. But she’s my doctor…. She can kill me easier than I can sue her….



The door opened and Susanne got in.



Charmaine : Hi dear…


Susanne : Did you see that… har ?? James ?? You saw the person my little sister is going out with….


James : Yah… that bad boy right….


Susanne paused for a moment before starting on her tirade, cursing her sister’s immaturity and infatuation with him.


Susanne : I think Xueling thinks she’s still what, a teenager ah… some ah lian going to tea dance…. Har ? She’s got to be out of her mind seeing someone like that…. When will she ever grow up…?



I gave Charmaine a look and she slowly lowered her head to the steering wheel, resting her forehead on her fingers which gripped it.




I took a deep breath as Susanne asked if I could help her get her sister out of this and I nodded.



Susanne : Really ??!!! great !!!... I owe you a big one ok…. Every damm dollar you get off her I give you 10%... …. Ok… ok… I was changing halfway….. wait for me…. I’ll buy you all brunch, after that I need to head down to the clinic liao….. wait ah… wait for me….



She got off the car and before she closed the door, I stopped Susanne and asked her a question.



James : Susanne..


Susanne : yah ?



James : Do I have the bad boy streak when I was dating you ?


She immediately burst out laughing.



Susanne : Sorry James…hahaa…. You errr….. I think you are naughty boy la…. Not bad boy….


With that, she closed the door and left while Charmaine kept her forehead down, trying to avoid eye contact with me.


I could not believe the indignation I was suffering at the hands of this 2 girls.


As we waited in silence, Charmaine tried to initiate a conversation with an awkward smile.



Charmaine : Ehh… so… now that you know Roger is Susanne’s ex, ….hahah



Charmaine : . it gets more challenging right …. Hahah…



When she heard my reply, she gave a low whistle, turned back to face the front and started the engine to pull the car up closer to Susanne’s gate.



James : No….. Now it’s personal…
