Shingles in a thai-western relationship.

Shingles... not as in the roofing sense, as in the adult chicken pox sense.

Poor West was itching and looking gross, but it all leads to an amusing story. West had this pain and then rash.. didn't know what it was...carried on working. Got worse... Anan (her ex now, but at the time her thai boyfriend) figures she was being a whinging cow, and gets fed up. After a week she had it looked at in phuket, was told that it is shingles, and then they tell anan what it is. Now he is all concerned and insists that they go and see his dad.... who apparently is what they call a home doctor.

At the house everyone is pulling up her shirt to see her rash, talking about it... but she doesn't have a fecking clue about what since the conversation is all in thai. Anan motions for her to sit next to his dad... he looks at the rash... gets closer (West thought to have another look)...... but no, he then spits this stuff all over her... for quite some length of time...all over her stomach and side. Unknown to her, he has healing powers and his spit combined with some leaves would apparently get rid of the shingles. Hmmmm.

West was told that she has to leave this spit/ leaf combo on till it dries and then repeat through the afternoon and night, and of course it should be done by anan's dad and his magic spit, however they had to leave. This meant she had the priviledge of anan spitting on her that night, since he may have some healing magic through genetics I s'pose.

Having your boyfriend gob over you 3 times a day is not the best for a relationship, and after that fist night West had had enough. Inevitable conclusion to story: Anan got pissed off because she no longer wanted him to spit on her anymore.
