Ai Seng's "Boyfriend"

Tags: Ai Seng Zen

We are visiting Zen, but in the dream he lives somewhere else (i.e. not Canterbury). The weather is really nice with a clear blue sky, but I'm aware of the fact that it's getting dark early, and I don't want summer to end.

Ai Seng is with a man that I haven't seen before, and when I say "with", I mean they seem to be in some kind of relationship. He's younger than she is, kind of scruffy, and they don't seem to be very well matched. Throughout the day I have hardly spoken to him but Ai Seng tells me that he will give me a lift home so that I don't have to get the train.

We walk to the spot where his car is parked, in some kind of car park. I see a crappy looking three seater van and realise that is what he drives, and he's parked it really close to the wall, so he tells me he will back it out to give me more room to get in the passenger's side. I hang back and wait, but somehow Ai Seng manages to squeeze in the tiny gap and get inside before he's moved it.

I stand there waiting for a little while, but he's not moving the van, and then I look inside and see them kissing. It's very uncomfortable looking, and I can tell that Ai Seng is just going along with it. She eventually pulls away and he reverses the van and I get inside.

The whole time I'm talking to this guy, I get the feeling that he is very manipulative, and keeps trying to control Ai Seng and make her do things that she doesn't want to (not serious things, but little things). He also keeps calling her pet-names like "cutie pie" and I remember thinking "please stop before I'm sick".

After a few minutes in the van he starts asking where my house is, and when I tell him he says "I can drop you at the train station instead, how about that?" He says it in a joking manner, but I can tell he really doesn't want to take me all of the way back home.

The only other thing I remember is talking in the van, and saying that I hate the winter and want to go somewhere warm like Australia for a few of the coldest months here. I say that I could work there, and Ai Seng totally doesn't get it, and says something like "Yeah you could maybe work in HR or something." I have to explain that I can work on my business anywhere that has internet.
