IMHO, the proper direction of play is still northward.
The cut is tempting, but due to the aforementioned bad aji, it is no good.

If white wants to go eastward, I've got to let him come to me, and I get stronger while defending.

@Observers:
Hmmm...more than 15 hours, and no reply from my honorable opponent. Something must be wrong.
I fear that he may have suffered some kind of seizure when he looked at my move and saw that I did not cut.

Northward, ever northward, all according to plan.
He has pushed east until he forces me to become stronger. Locally, I am now stronger, 2 stones vs 3 stones. My group has twice as many liberties - 6 to 3 - and letting me have the unopposed hane would be unpleasant. So I think he has to go northward again: either the solid extension or the hane.
Also, my prospective corner territory in the lower right is becoming bigger. If I get one spare tenuki to play R5, I am ahead by an almost insurmountable margin.
I expect the game to continue something like this:

Your numbering was a little off in the last diagram. Here's the corrected version.

@Observers:
There are already threats in the air. My tengen stone, although looking weak at first glance, is backed up by G10, H11, and H12, so that it is strong enough to participate in the attack. If he does not reply, I will cut him up like this:

And white is enclosed and unlikely to find two eyes.

Continue with the plan, of course.
As I have mentioned, the plan has been following two proverbs:
1) Push him toward your strength.
2) Make territory while attacking.
Once he allowed H12, my upper/ middle group has been relatively strong. I've been using my lower group to push him against it. ( Proverb #1 )
While doing so, I've been sketching the outline of territory in the lower right corner ( proverb #2 )
If he makes another move, particularly a defensive one like white 3:
$$Wcm1

...then I'll probably continue with something that follows those two proverbs - like black 4.
If white tries to interfere with my land grab on the right side, a fight will probably ensue over there; and during the course of such a fight I hope to find black 4 becoming stronger. Then I'll go back to attacking him.
