章節 37: Phuket night life
Ador was so embarrassed. Neither could she face her husband and scold him in front of other tourists nor could she look at the guide for some value added information about Phuket. The guide was smiling ear to ear and Dev, well ,he was talking with another tourist about his accomplishments at work. This , Ador knew, was all story making. But she did not want to hurt Dev's pride.
Once they reached hotel, guide said he would assemble them in the evening for a small tour of walking street and show them the way back.
Both were tired. But they did not travel back to the room. They were sure once they landed on bed they would doze off till the next morning. Ador was wanting to see the night life of Phuket.
Both kept strolling in the reception, dining area, in front of the hotel parking till 2 hours passed.
During this time, Ador tried out the local fruits available like Durian , Dragon fruit or Pitaya, Pomelo and the like. But she fell in love with Rambutan. Once the hairy fruit is peeled, the white pulp is so much like sweet lychees, found in India, before the monsoons. She shared some with Dev. But he was more interested in the hot pants being sold in the flea market blooming near the hotel. Dev was of the notion, of Ador wears the white one and pair it with a shoulder off..... hmm. He looked with Ador and smiled. Thinking tonight his stamina would be at its peak. Back in form they waited for the guide. Dev bought four cans of beer and put it in his shoulder bag. When the guide came and saw that they were waiting for him. He called them and all three went to the Ladyboy village nearby. The entire tour group was waiting. The guide said the walking street is famous for seafood stalls, beer bars, pubs, and you will see interesting things too that might make you wonder why people come over here every year and attract a lot of tourists. The night life of Phuket helps boost the economy too. "So relax and enjoy. " is what the guide said before they started.
Among the hustle and bustle of tourists, local people ,walking street was so dazzling. Ador was bewitched with the street lights. Kolkata's Park street during Christmas failed to this illumination. Turkish Ice cream stalls, curatio shops, lingerie shops, sea food stalls with octopus, squids , giant prawns and what not. Hmm as the smell of the cooking entered the nostrils of Ador, she felt her stomach grumble. She looked upto Dev who looked at her and then at the roadside chef, who with all his culinary skills was whipping out a storm. Dev nodded. Ador understood, that they would dine there after the guide left. As they walked more in walking street , the crowd got denser. The bars started. Local music could be heard. Some English songs were being played. And then Ador saw bar dancers in poles dancing. Some bars had open doors, so one could just peep in to see. Some pubs were having security guards and had closed doors. Then these row of bars increased. She saw a lot of beautiful south asian women standing and talking to each other. As they moved further, the guide took leave and left the group, so they could help ease up and relax. The group scattered. As Ador held Dev's hand and walked in the street, she was just staring at things... There were women who were topless, dancing among the crowd inside a bar. Dev wanted to enter. Ador pulled him back. He said "See, you need to see and relax. Enjoy. Try out drinking beer with me. Life is colourful. Stop being a behenji"
Though they did not enter that bar, what made Ador look down in embarrassment was that a few women, beautiful women, blondes, were decked up in negligible clothes and were taking up the maniquin area of the localised shops and were giving different signals like flying kiss and winking to the passerby on the street from inside the glass wall.
Then she saw women, not only blondes, but from other countries of the world wearing little or no clothing or wearing clothing of princesses, all decked up and looking at onlookers....smiling. Ador felt very bad for womanhood. What a plight. Should she boast of beauty of women or feel they are being wronged. There is injustice being done. As she kept on dwelling in this thought, Dev pulled her inside a beer bar.
