When the deed was done, I walked to a restaurant and bought a bottle of wine, it was surprisingly good, probably Russian I do not care for Italian wine. The woman followed me, wanted wine also, said I was gentle. After two bottles, she said she loved me. When she went into the loo. I jumped into a taxi and drove back to the ship feeling annoyed.
