An Apostate: Nawin of Thais His cheek inadvertently brushed against an extended vine of green bananas dangling above the sidewalk near a French colonial building used by a Laotian government ministry. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais The Laotian seemed to be sagacious enough to know his situation or perhaps this loneliness was so inordinate that he wanted to believe him as such. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Nawin breathed out, smiled and stretched as much as he could without touching the Laotian, content and relaxed in the inconsequence of existence. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais The second time he did so the Laotian laughed. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais The Laotian laughed until the point where he had difficulty swallowing his saliva. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais "It's a mystery," said the Laotian and then grabbed one of Nawin's hands. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais The Laotian was still seated in front of him as before, but with a furrowed forehead and a smirking countenance as if puzzled not by what to say but on how best to say it. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais "Sorry, I got carried away," said the Laotian to no one in particular. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais It was obvious that the Laotian had found a means to make him feel intimidated in generalized words, but laughter and a warm smile, he told himself, would burn away that fog. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais The idea of the Laotian having proof of his decadence would dog whatever specious tranquility he hoped to have in a vacant space of his own. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais "What are the chances of meeting like this?" asked the Laotian as smoke propelled by a gust of wind came upon them in a gaseous fog. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Like individuals shoving through the crowds to swoop in the descent of agenda, so were the lower clouds and so it seemed to him now was the Laotian. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Just as on the train he believed that the Laotian ad his sister knew of his attraction toward him, so now he was reading his deeper thoughts. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais No, the Laotian was not one whom he could objectively surmise when yearning for intimacy with and salvation for him. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Still with the appropriate undaunted response such a caprice and aberration did not need to brand him in the Laotian's mind or his own. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Unzipping his pants, the Laotian aimed the release of the arch of his liquids to nature and to the exhibition of all passing cars. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais "All for you," he imagined the Laotian saying to him as he noticed her lower body slightly distended. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais We hardly know a soul here except other Laotians. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Maybe, he told himself, he would visit the Laotians. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais There was only one object, himself, that was the meaning of this word, for the Laotian's eyes seemed to be peering into him with murky beams of light. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais The city had monuments and a few signs in English elucidating Laotian history, but signs of international commerce or even signs in Laotian prompting capitalism on a local level, seemed scarce. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais After so much decadent thought about the Laotian the implosion of his solitary tower was an inevitability. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Nawin was amused at the strained efforts the Laotian underwent— with some formality of diction—to impress him. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais It seemed to him that small talk and bantering were, as the Laotian said, titillations to make something personal in the void of time and space. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Nawin sat down on the wet bench next to the Laotian who wrote his telephone number out for him once again. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais For a moment he was scared of the Laotian as if having stumbled into a den of sleeping terrorist cells but it was the self that was his only terrorist. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais Perhaps a Somalian would look at a Laotian in the same way. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais "Do they put elephants in stables?" asked Nawin with ingenuous naivety as he pondered the meaning of the Laotian's questions. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais It was saying that, as with the sound of the fan, so was the Laotian's voice and all specious sound: that sound, by being heard indirectly if not vicariously, existed only as an adulterated sensation. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais "One in a billion, okay," said Nawin and the Laotian laughed. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais For a moment he deliberately sobered his rolling caprice of laughter with the thought of the bleak scenario beyond the bold and refreshing honesty of the Laotian's words. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais He imagined himself shaking the Laotian, kicking him on his hairy behind, and dragging him out of this annexed space. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais He considered pulling a few thousand baht from his wallet to give to this Laotian. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais As he did so he heard the Laotian snoring as uproariously as a siren and yet as mellifluously as the enticing song of a Siren. An Apostate: Nawin of Thais |
