In My Desperate Time

Frances Louis, he…

I told him that I didn’t want it. Why he still buys it?

Does he really like me? Like Mindy said?

"No, no, no."

I shake my head and try to get this terrible idea out of my mind and wait for Frances Louis to come.

Then, Frances Louis comes and leads me into the golf course.

I thought Frances Louis was coming in for a round of golf, but he takes me straight to the dining room.

"The Japanese food here is very good. Try it."

I nod and follow him in.

I don’t know much about Japanese food, so I just order a few dishes at random.

When the food is served, I find that many things are raw. In fact, I am not very good at eating raw food, and, not wanting to annoy Frances Louis, I eat a little and put down my chopsticks.

Frances Louis doesn’t eat much either. I never see him eat much. He is always so polite and elegant.

Of course, the Frances I was talking about was the Frances in public. When he with me, he is no more than a beast.
