Emmanuelle 8 (part one)

Tuesday, June 1, 2021

In 1974 I was twenty, and I made love to Emmanuelle. I believe she was 18, but she could have been younger. In the 1970s, a gentleman never asked a woman her age. I first met Emmanuelle in Thailand. I was there to enhance my sexual experience, and I suspect that she was there for the same thing. We both never been to Asia at that point, and although I planned to be with Asian women, I was drawn to Emmanuelle due to hearing her speak English in a cafe. She was wearing a white blouse that resembled a man's white shirt with an off-white pleated skirt. The gentleman behind the register had difficulty understanding her accent. She asked for lemon tea, and I approached them both on the side and slowly pronounced "ˈlemən tē." He understood me and shook his head up and down. As he prepared the tea, she touched my shoulder gently and said, "merci." "Your welcome."

I ordered fizzy water with lemon and looked for a seat in the cafe. All tables were taken, but I can see Emmanuelle sitting by herself, with an extra chair by her table. "May I join you?" She pulled the chair away from the table and gestured me to sit down. "My name is Emmanuelle and yours?"

"I'm Tosh."

"Tosh... is that a girl's name. I knew a Tosh once; her full name is Natasha. I think her nickname is Tosh."

"My full and legal name on the birth certificate is Tosh, Tosh Berman. It also states that I'm a male."

She laughed, "pleasure to meet you, Mr. Tosh." we took the first sip of our drinks, and then I asked her, "are you in Thailand by yourself?"

"No, she said, I'm here with my lover Just Jaeckin. Have you heard of him?" I nodded my head no and raised my shoulders as not having a clue who he is. She told me that he's a French filmmaker and Just's here to scout locations for a film he's thinking of making. Emmanuelle said to me that he wanted her to star in the movie.

"You're an actress, Emmanuelle?

"When we are in the bedroom, I'm often acting a role for Just. He's a brilliant man, an older and educated man. He understands what a woman wants. She put her head closer to my ear, "Do you know what a woman wants, Tosh?"

"ˈlemən tē?"

She got closer to my ear and whispered to me, "take me back to my animal state Tosh." She pulled her head back and looked at my face, and said, "You know the way, take me there."
