Torn

I awake around 11:00 this morning and head to the shower. Halfway through it, the water shuts off. I’m soaped down from head to toe and I don’t have any water to wash it off with. I wait, but after a couple of minutes I finally give up and wipe myself off with a towel. I can’t say that I have ever wiped shampoo out of my hair with a towel.

I am pissed at this point. Whether it is popping breakers, or no water at all, I have had too much trouble with this shower. I get dressed and head to Bobby’s.

Bobby tells me the water in the building must be out so I take this opportunity to see if he has anything else opening up. The only other complaint I have about the place is the sheet won’t stay on the mattress. I constantly have to pull it back over and I have found myself on bare mattress a time or two this trip, which you never like to have happen in a “fucky- fucky” apartment.

He tells me he will show me a couple more that are opening up tomorrow and to check with the doorman to see about the water. He also sends the maid back over to put a better sheet on the mattress. Bobby is a very nice guy and is doing all he can to help me with issues beyond his control.

Back at the apartment, my doorman tells me the water will be back at 4:00. Well that’s just great.
I go upstairs and Iris is still asleep, so I sit at the table to put down some notes.

As I sit and look out the window, I can’t help but wonder what Alicia is doing and what she must be thinking that I did last night since I didn’t call her or go to Terma X yesterday. I have to admit that it has been hard for me to get the spark back that I had last trip with Iris. As I say that, I look at her in the bed sleeping and she looks like an angel. These two girls are like fire and ice…. completely different personalities. I’ve had occasions where I just about had to whip Alicia’s ass because she was getting out of hand. This one is so different and so gentle. The jealousy she displays is the “cute” kind. The jealousy Alicia displays is at times possessive and obsessive. One likes my hair longer; the other likes it shorter. Fire and Ice, and I am torn between the two.

Around 1:00, I wake her up and tell her we still don’t have water. I ask her if she wants to go to lunch and she points to her “night shoes” and says she can’t. They are clear, platform-type shoes with 5-inch heels and scream Helpie. She doesn’t want to go walking around with them so we say good-bye and I tell her I will call her soon. The real problem with this one is the lack of communication. Other than that I have to say that she is one of the sweetest girls I have ever met anywhere.

It 3:00 and I still don’t have water, so I head to Alcazar to see if I can find anyone. I spot Sweet sitting with a cutie. I hang out with them for a bit and head up the street. While walking, I pass Alicia’s apartment. I pause for a moment and then head back and ask her doorman to call her. When she opens the door she again starts asking me what I want. I tell her that I don’t want anything and I just wanted to say hello and see if she wanted to go with me to grab a bite to eat before she goes to “work”. She lets me in and the interrogation begins.

First she wants to know where I went yesterday after she left. Second, she wants to know why I didn’t call her last night. (why did I come here again?) Third, she wants to know if I was with Iris last night.

She tells me that she came by my apartment last night after she got off “work” and the doorman told her that I had already gone up with another girl. (thanks a lot dickhead)

At this point I ask her what in the world does she expect from me? When I am with her, I treat her as best I can, but she still wants to try to control me. It seems in her mind, she is allowed to go fuck 4 or 5 guys a day that I may or may not like, but when it comes to me, I can’t fuck Priscilla or Iris, who are both beautiful and total sweethearts about the whole situation.

We make up sort of, and I tell her I am heading off to eat. She decides she wants to go so I tell her we will go back to our favorite kilo restaurant. When it is good between us, it is very good. There is an undeniable chemistry between us, and a growing attraction. We would be fine if she would stop acting like a maniac at times.

Before we say good-bye she tells me to come to Terma X with her now, but then pauses and tells me to come tonight, and after “work”, she will come to my apartment. I tell her maybe and off she goes to “work”.

I head back to my apartment, but I still don’t have water. The guy tells me it will be on at 6:00. Sure.

I head out to run some errands and afterwards, on to Terma X. My trip is about to be irreversibly altered.

Thanks for the repost. It sounds like you are starting to get in over your head with your new wives. One thing that I have noticed in myself and a few of the other reporters on this site is that Rio and the Garotas De Programa can become a dangerous addiction.
I want to say no and get something started with a normal girl here in SoCal, but the draw of the bunda is so strong that I find myself begging for overtime at work so that I can finace another trip to get a fix.

Aldaron,


I'll try to be as sensitive as possible. All these favorite, especially #1 only see $$$ in you.
#1 is playing the old high school cat and mouse game. I know it's rough in Brazil and she has to work in order to get by there is a limit.
I think the same rules apply just as the states, if she likes you, money or no money she'll be by your side. It seems everytime you guys speak, $$$ is the topic.
Of course, the terma she is happy to see you. Trying to sell that one hour to you and probably talk to you for 20 minutes out of that hour.
Bottom-line--Don't get emotional towards any of these programma girls. I know it's hard. I was somewhat there, Last year on my second trip to Rio, I met a beautiful 18y/o on hooker beach. We hit it off from the start, she begged me to take her out at night so she can avoid help.

Anyways,
Your not the only gringo who goes through this type of drill. When I go back, I will leave the emotions back in the states and go for the service. I have no remorse for screwing a garota the first night and the next night saying hi to her and send her good looking friend to come talk to me.
Safado, I hear it from all the girls. I tell them not Safado, but muito safado.

Enjoy and just focus on the sex. If you looking for love, brush up on your Portuguese and get out of Copa.

Yes Ceenotes, I understand your point. Clearly I made some mistakes. However,the only reason the subject of money kept coming up was because I wasn't giving her any. I gave her nothing, but she kept coming back.

Roadglide, I beg for comp-time so I can have more time off. It's not really working so far. I'm going to have to get used to the quick 3 or 4 day trips soon enough.

We'll be looking forward to your quick 3 or 4 day reports as well.

I am thinking more and more that I am going to have to add that one too Mr. Miyagi. It is too damn bizarre... and funny.
