The Nub smiled as he got dressed in an attempt to hide his disappointment. You see, his first spa experience had just turned out to be far less than he had expected. Just 1 hour before, he had arrived at Swan. The Nub was nervous. He walked in the building, made his way up the stairs and rang the bell. He heard someone rushing towards the door; it was a girl in her late 20's. "Not too bad," The Nub thought (she was a 6). The girl spoke softly in broken English. Later the nub would find out that the girl is Korean, and he would ask her name which he would forget after a few seconds. "First time?" the Nub was asked. "Yes." After some formalities, the nub took a quick shower and then he was ready for some therapy. Things had been a little awkward till this point because of The Nub's inexperience. The therapy began. The Nub could barely feel the girlโs hands on his back. The massage was very light, mechanical, and not energetic at all. Later he was asked to flip over. The Nub thought that things would get better from then on. However, the mechanical massage continued on The Nub's shoulders, legs and arms. After a few more minutes the girl said, "Ok...Done..."
"That's it?" the nub asked.
"Yes, massagi only here" the girl said.
The nub thought, "What! You call that a massage?" but he only smiled.
The nub was totally disappointed and walked out. The therapy had not relieved he Nubโs stress. However, he had learned from this experience and he would not any sleep over it. But, he will never go back to Swan.
