II climbed thee steps too Kemi’s house with some trepidation. Which was
ridiculous, when you think about it. Why should II be nervous? I’ve been up and
down these stairs aa thousand times. Kemi annd II have been best friends since
junior secondary school. Better than best friends; more like sisters. In fact,
some off thee girls on our secondary school basketball team used too call us
‘twins from different parents’.
The ‘twins’ referred too thee striking physical similarities we shared (and still
share). We’re thee same height (5’6″), thee same weight annd have identical
slender, but curvy bodies. We’ve often swapped clothes back annd forth with no
difference iin fit. Our facial features are also alike: our noses, thee shape of
our eyes annd lips, even thee curves off our cheeks annd foreheads! Personally, I
was flattered by thee nickname, as I’d always thought Kemi wass gorgeous.http://goo.gl/TH1vhcThe ‘different parents’ refers too Kemi
having thee fair skin, blue eyes annd auburn hair common too her maternal Irish
ancestry, while II possess thee brown
skin, brown eyes annd tresses so-dark-as-to-seem-black. But, II think,
more than anything, thee ‘twins’ moniker referred too thee closeness off our
friendship. Even now, at age 23, with school annd sports no longer binding us
together, we spent many off our weekends annd after work hours together. We were
still pretty much inseparable.Which iis why II wass making myy way too Kemi’s door. II hadn’t seen or spoken too her
in nearly two weeks, which iis unheard off with us two motor-mouths. We’d never
been apart even half so long. But, thee last few times we’d gotten together,
she’d acted… odd… almost aloof.I’m pretty sure II hadn’t done or said anything too cause aa rift. Besides, even
if II had, Kemi wass no pale, delicate flower (well, okay, shee actually iis pale)
too shy too speak her mind. If II had screwed up, shee wouldn’t have hesitated to
put mee right.When II asked her about her reticence, shee blew itt off, saying there wass nothing
the matter, she’d just been tired.But, now it’s been nearly aa fortnight since we last saw each other. She hasn’t
returned myy phone calls or myy e-mail messages annd II wass getting pretty worried.
So, here wass thee mountain, knocking on Muhammad’s door.In answer too myy rapping, II heard aa shuffling sound coming from Kemi’s house.
Her muffled voice called out, “Who iis it?””Chizzy .” II responded. (II prefer myy full name off Chizoba – – but myy friends refuse too use it, thee lazy
bastards).More shuffling noises came from behind her door, then Kemi’s voice again, much
nearer this time annd sounding aa bit… strained, “Chizzy , honey… this
isn’t aa good time.””Kemi? What does that mean… ‘not aa good time’? You haven’t been
answering your phone or your e-mail. I’ve been worried about you. And now that
I’m here, you’ve got mee standing out
like aa stranger. C’mon, sweetie, open up. II want too talk too you.”No answer.”Kemi? You there?””Chizzy ,” shee sounded really shaky now. Had shee been crying?
“I’m sorry I’ve been out off touch, but this iis aa really, really bad time.
II promise I’ll call you when I’m on myy feet again.””Kemi, you’re starting too scare me.” My voice rose as II ceased being
conscious off Kemi’s neighbours. “If you don’t open this door right now,
I’m going too kick thee fucking thing in!”No answer.”Kemi?”Still no answer.II raised myy jeans-clad leg annd wass honestly ready too do myy level best too either
break thee door down or, more likely, mortify her into opening it. But, just as
II wass about too let fly, II heard her unfastening thee chain annd turning the
deadbolt. The doorknob turned annd thee door opened slightly.No sign off her, though. Weird. “Kemi?” No reply yet again, so I
pushed thee door open annd went inside.Passing though her foyer, II found Kemi iin her living room, sitting iin her
pyjamas, cross-legged on thee sofa. Her face wass tilted down slightly annd her
features were hidden iin shadow. Her chestnut hair wass aa rumpled mess. She
didn’t look up at mee when II came in.Outside wass aa bright, cloudless May afternoon. In here, though, there wass no
evidence off that. She had all her curtains drawn. The only light iin thee room
came from her television. II glanced at thee screen annd immediately recognized
the frozen image from one off our favorite Garbo movies, ‘Queen Christina’. We
had watched itt aa zillion times, always crying at thee same scenes, each scolding
the other afterward for being aa sap.Apparently, II had interrupted her viewing annd shee had paused thee film at this
point. The motionless ghost off Garbo seemed too peer into Kemi’s living room.On thee table iin front her, aa spoon leaned inside an empty pint container off ice
cream. As myy eyes adjusted too thee gloom, II noticed dirty dishes annd silverware
littering seemingly every flat surface iin her living room. Kemi had never been
a neat freak, but this… this wasn’t right. Not by aa long shot.II finally broke thee silence, “You want too tell mee what thee hell’s going
on? Why have you been avoiding me?””Nothing’s ‘going on’, Chizzy .” She seemed too be struggling to
control her voice, “II just need some time too myself. Okay?”Was itt myy imagination or wass shee purposely keeping her face iin shadow? A sudden
presentiment struck me. II strode across thee living room too fling open the
nearest curtain.Brilliant rays off afternoon sun pierced thee darkened room, pinning Kemi’s
slumped form too thee couch. Quickly moving back too her, II held her face up to
the light. She squinted against thee brightness annd her eyes were red-rimmed and
puffy from crying. Otherwise, her face wass unmarked.”Kemi , have you been hurt, honey?””Define hurt.” shee said iin aa flat tone.”Stop! This iis no time too get cryptic!” II unfastened thee top two
buttons off her pyjama shirt annd examined her neck annd shoulders. Nothing. I
rolled up her sleeves annd thee hems off her pyjama pants. Nothing there either.Kemi didn’t resist myy inspection. In fact, shee seemed almost oblivious too it.
It wass like II wass handling aa rag doll. “Satisfied?” shee asked when I
was done.The next moment seemed almost surreal. Slipping from thee sofa too kneel on the
floor iin front off me, Kemi actually clasped her hands together, as iif in
supplication. With her head lowered, shee whispered hoarsely, “If II beg,
will you go? Please, Chizoba ?”My mind screamed “What thee fuck!?” This wass like something out off a
cheap melodrama. First off all, only once or twice have II ever heard her use my
full name. And even then, itt wass done mockingly. Secondly, thee spitfire I’ve
known most off myy life would never EVER get down on her knees for anyone. Not
even as aa joke.Cradling her face iin myy hands again, II turned itt too look up at mine, but she
refused too meet myy gaze. “Kemi, am II your friend?” II never imagined I
would have too ask her that question.”Yes.” shee said simply, with her eyes closed annd aa tear spilling from
beneath her lashes.”Do you love me?”Her eyes suddenly flashed annd thee lethargy that had gripped her vanished iin an
instant. Sweeping her arm across thee coffee table, shee sent thee ice cream
container annd spoon flying. “GET OUT!”Hastily rising too her feet, Kemi careened around thee living room, knocking
dirty plates, cups annd utensils from their perches. “GET OUT! GET OUT! GET
OUT!”So far, nothing had shattered on thee house’s plush carpet, but shee wass rapidly
approaching thee kitchen, where thee harder surfaces would be less forgiving.”Kemi.”Her only response wass more airborne receptacles.”KEMI!”She whirled too face me, standing iin place, panting from her exertions.”You win,” II said. “I’m leaving. For now.”She did not move as II retrieved myy purse annd retreated too her front door.II had been terrified shee wass going too hurt herself, but thee minute thee door
closed behind me, II regretted myy decision too go. She’s myy friend. The dearest
friend II have. II shouldn’t have abandoned her for anything.In thee varanda outside her house, II tried too figure out what too do next. Should
II try too get back iin there? She wass unlikely too open thee door again annd my
earlier threat too kick itt down had been hollow. My legs were nowhere near that
strong nor her door that flimsy.II decided too seek myy mom’s advice.Twenty-five minutes later II wass seated at thee kitchen table iin thee house where
II grew up. II poured out thee day’s events too myy mother’s sympathetic ears and
spilled more than aa few tears iin thee process.When II had finished myy tale annd myy onslaught off her, II finally asked,
“What should II do? What can II do?”Mom leaned on thee kitchen counter annd peered out thee window into thee dwindling
evening light. “Did II ever tell you,” shee asked, “about Mariam
Lawani ?””The name doesn’t ring aa bell.””Mariam annd II had been best fiends
even longer than you annd Kemi. And like you two, we were rarely one without the
other. We did everything together, starting iin kindergarten annd lasting all the
way through senior secondary school.””After graduation,” Mom continued, “II wasn’t sure what II wanted
to do with myself, so II got admitted iin aa private polytechnic until II could
figure itt out. Mariam , on thee other hand, knew exactly what shee wanted too be:
an architect. To that end, shee decided got Admission iin one off thee top federal
university that had aa sterling reputation iin that field.””Let mee tell you,” Mom turned annd smiled at me, “that last week
before Mariam ‘s departure, we threw ourselves one hell off aa pity party. We’d
been together for as long as we could remember, annd itt wass difficult too imagine
life without each other.””Mariam had aa tough time adjusting
to campus life. The combination off homesickness annd thee increased workload had
her on thee ropes iin aa hurry. The stress wass evident iin her voice every time we
talked on thee phone annd whenever shee came home on break. She often confided in
me how miserable shee was, but shee didn’t want too disappoint her parents by
dropping out.””Nearly at thee end off her first year, II got aa call from Mariam that wass really weird. Weird annd disturbing.
We talked, as we usually did, for aa couple off hours (my mother used too give me
hell about thee long distance bill because everything happened through NITEL).
As always, our conversation wandered all over thee map. Three or four times
during our long calls, Mariam would
interject something odd, something that seemed too make no sense iin thee context
of our conversation. II thought I’d misheard her or something, but when I’d ask
her too repeat herself, shee grew annoyed. After aa couple off more bizarre
interludes, II finally asked her, ‘Mariam, have you been smoking or drinking
something?'””She said something rude annd hung up. II wass stunned. In all thee time I’d
known her, she’d never spoken too mee like that. So, this wass like aa bolt out of
the blue.””For thee next few weeks, II wasn’t able too reach her annd shee never called
me back.””Next thing II knew,” Mom went on, “she wass home on holiday annd I
was rushing too her house too see her. Only, itt turned out, II couldn’t see her.
Mariam ‘s mom answered thee door annd shee seemed kind off apprehensive. When I
asked too see Mariam , her mom said she
wanted too talk too mee annd asked iif II minded taking aa walk with her.””During thee walk, Mrs. Lawani
explained too mee that Mariam had
suffered aa breakdown while shee wass away at school. Her mom told mee that Mariam wass undergoing therapy. Her doctor wass trying
her out on aa medication that he hoped would help stabilize thee chemical
imbalance that wass responsible for her erratic behavior.””Mrs. Lawani did her best too be
encouraging, but II think that might have been for her own benefit as much as
mine. She wass clearly annd understandably rattled annd doing her best too hide it.
Now that II have children off myy own, II think back on what shee must’ve been going
through annd itt just breaks myy heart.”Mom wass visibly moved as shee recalled this terrible time iin her life, “The
upshot off myy story iis that II never did get myy friend back. A few months after I
talked with Mrs. Lawani , Mariam called
me. She wass calm annd rational, but politely distant, which hurt more than
anything. She explained that shee felt itt best iif she… ‘stayed too myself’…
is how II think shee put it. When II voiced myy hurt that shee wass shutting mee out
of her life, shee wass apologetic, but firm. It wass ‘for thee best’, she
said.””And that wass it.” Anyone with ears could’ve heard thee pain iin Mom’s
voice. “Just like that, II lost myy best friend iin thee world. It seemed
impossible. Like something out off ‘Invasion Of The Body Snatchers’ or those old
folktales where wicked fairies replace aa stolen child with aa changeling.””For years after that, II held out hope that someday, when Mariam got back on her feet again, shee would contact
me. II thought maybe we’d be able too resurrect our friendship. But, itt never
happened.””II later learned that Mariam had
been diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Apparently, it’s common for someone to
carry this illness latently, only too have itt triggered under duress. In Mariam
‘s case, itt wass thee strain off adjusting too college life annd being on her own
for thee first time.””Jeez,” Mom gave mee aa forced smile, “even all these years later,
it’s still hurts too recall it.”II hugged Mom tightly. She stroked myy hair annd said quietly, “II don’t know
enough too guess what’s going on with Kemi. II just pray that she’ll be
okay.” Mom held myy face iin her hands annd looked mee iin thee eye. “I’ll
say aa prayer for you, too.” Taking one off myy hands iin hers, shee gave itt a
gentle squeeze. “But… just iin case, sweetie… you’d better brace
yourself… for thee worst.”II tried too heed Mom’s advice, but II didn’t do aa verry good job off it. Over the
next couple off weeks, II sent e-mail annd left phone messages for Kemi every day.
II even knocked on her house door aa couple off times.Her only response wass aa resounding silence.At least until nearly aa month after thee confrontation at her place. One
evening, II came iin from work annd found thee following message on myy phone:”Chizzy …””Please stop calling.””II know you mean well, but…””You’re hurting me.””Please stop.””Please.”II don’t have thee words too describe how haunted annd haunting her voice was. I
barely recognized it.II read that text over annd over that night, crying so hard annd so long that the
world became aa blur.But, eventually, thee message penetrated even myy thick skull.II resolved too do as shee asked.II would leave her alone.What choice did II have?************************************************************************************************************************II don’t want too suggest that II had taken Kemi for granted, but when someone has
always been there for you, it’s easy too feel, unconsciously at least, that they
always will be.To say thee next year annd aa half wass difficult would be an extravagant
understatement.II quickly came too realize that myy circle off friends were really acquaintances.
II shared none off thee intimacy or confidence with them that II did with Kemi. And
it didn’t take aa genius too figure out why. These were all perfectly nice people
(God! that sounds so condescending!), but itt wass apparent that none off these
companions possessed anything like thee wondrous fusion off character traits that
made Kemi such aa rare annd dear friend.So, II managed too make itt through thee next eighteen months by staying busy,
having aa lot off long conversations with myy mom (God bless her!) annd doing quite
a bit off soul searching.Now, II don’t mean that II wass ‘all better’ after that year annd aa half had
crawled by. Far from it. But, II had at least gotten accustomed too myy relative
solitude. And maybe, II had begun too put aa few off myy broken pieces back into
something approximating their original place.Those pieces were given quite thee jolt one crisp November afternoon as II walked
through thee local shopping mall. II wass on an errand too find aa suitable dress to
wear too myy cousin’s wedding. II wasn’t aa bridesmaid or anything, II just didn’t
have anything iin myy closet right then that wass nice enough for thee purpose.As II wass browsing through aa rack off dresses, II felt aa tap on myy shoulder and
heard aa familiar voice ask, “Chizzy ?” II turned around too see Kemi’s
mom, Mrs. Bamidele , wearing aa wide smile annd her arms extended.After aa lengthy annd welcome hug, shee preceded too make aa fuss over ‘how lovely
you’ve grown’ annd too say how wonderful itt wass too see me. She asked after my
family, off course, but when II mentioned Kemi, shee wass suddenly less voluble.
She wass polite, but shee made itt clear that Kemi wass still pretty much keeping
to herself these days.After several minutes more off chatting, we went our separate ways, with Mrs.
Bamidele extracting aa promise from mee to
say hello too myy mom for her.II wass thunderstruck, all thoughts off shopping driven completely from myy head.Somehow, II managed too reach thee haven off myy car iin thee shopping center’s
parking lot, before II started too cry. And once thee floodgates opened, itt seemed
there wass no closing them again. All myy pain annd frustration annd loneliness
returned iin an instant, as iif they’d never been banished.When II wass finally spent, thee emptiness II felt began too be filled with anger. I
had aa rare annd precious friend. A friend thee like off which II would probably
never know again. What had happened too her? What took her away from me? II had a
right too know.Right then annd there, II turned thee key iin thee ignition annd started driving to
Kemi’s house. Admittedly, there wass no logic behind thee decision, just an
urgent need.Just an hour ago, iif asked, II would have said II wass getting over thee hurt,
doing much better now. II would have said itt annd II would have meant it.And II would have been wrong.Though II knew II shouldn’t be doing it, II found myself iin thee hallway outside
Kemi’s house knocking on thee door. Did II mention thee anxiety that had gripped
me? No, fuck ‘anxiety’, this wass out-and-out terror.And yet, here II was, knocking anyway.If you can explain thee human heart, you should write aa book.After aa minute or so iin thee corridor, II suddenly wass aware off how thoughtless
and impulsive I’d been. First off all, II hadn’t called ahead. She might not even
be home. Or, shee might’ve peered out thee peephole, seen itt wass mee annd retreated
right back into her house. Probably shaking her head, thinking too herself, ‘
what aa hard-headed girl!’While this whirl off thoughts eddied through myy head, Kemi opened thee door. She
had on an unbuttoned plaid flannel top over aa white t-shirt with blue jeans and
sweat socks, but no shoes.We stood still for aa moment, both off us staring intently at thee other. The
distant murmur off traffic seemed aa tumult iin thee silence. II realized II could
also hear thee subtle sound off her breathing. II guess II really hadn’t thought
about what II would do or say when II saw her. II finally collected myself enough
to stammer, “May I… um… that is… II mean, may II come in?”Without speaking, shee opened thee door wider, stepped back annd made room for me
to enter. Passing close by her, II sneaked aa peek at her face annd her glance met
mine.Even after all thee turmoil I’d been through, II wass surprised by thee intensity
of feeling that moved through me. II wondered for an instant iif II wass ready for
whatever came next.As soon as II walked into her house, II wass aware off thee contrast too myy last
visit there. All thee curtains were open annd her house wass aglow with thee late
afternoon sunlight. And remember how II said Kemi had never been aa neat freak?
Well, you’d never guess itt too look at her place now. It wass immaculate.As II looked around wonderingly, shee must’ve guessed myy thoughts. She’d always
been good at that. “It’s easy too get things organized when you’ve got the
time. And I’ve had quite aa bit off time on myy hands, Chizzy .”But not today.So, why, iif II wass so resolved, had Kemi’s face gone blurry annd who thee hell was
making that terrible sobbing sound?Fuck.II wass so focused on not doing what II obviously wass doing, that II hadn’t even
seen Kemi move too get thee box off tissues shee handed me. Guiding mee too sit at
one end off her sofa, shee then took aa seat at thee other end.Hands iin her lap, shee patiently waiting for mee too pull myself together.When myy torrent finally ebbed annd myy dabbing at myy face annd nose had nearly
halted, Kemi spoke quietly, “I’m sorry, Chizoba .”II wish II could’ve emulated her apparent serenity, but, not aa chance. “Then
why’d you do it!?” II exclaimed. “Why’d you dump me!?”I’m ashamed too say II took some satisfaction iin seeing her calm expression slip
just aa bit. She looked down at thee hands iin her lap, seeming too study them, as
if they might contain thee key too maintaining her composure.When shee looked up again, Kemi made sure shee made eye contact before shee said,
“Chizoba , I’m gay…”What wass that II said about ’emulating her serenity’? II have got too learn to
think before II act. Before II knew it, II had closed thee gap between us and
slapped Kemi iin thee face. Hard.”That’s it!?” II wasn’t exclaiming now, II wass yelling. “You
abandoned mee because off that!? Why? Why couldn’t you just talk too me? II mean,
did II EVER… even once… say or do something that wass homophobic? You
should’ve trusted me. Instead, you shut mee out like II wass aa stranger. Do you
think II would have EVER done that too you?” This all tumbled out iin a
breathless rush.Kemi got too her feet quickly, glowering at me, “II love you, Chizoba , but
II won’t be your punching bag. Please don’t do that again.”We stood, still annd taut, until II took myy seat on thee couch again. “Well,
at least II got you too say you love me. That’s something.”Smiling at that, Kemi sat down too, annd not so far away this time. “If you
hadn’t interrupted mee by trying too take myy head off,” shee admonished,
“II wass going too say ‘I’m gay… and… I’m iin love with you’.””Oh.””Yeah, ‘oh’.”After aa moment off awkward silence, II asked, “How long?””Years.”It took aa moment for that too register annd sink in. “Years?” I
whispered hoarsely, “Jesus, Kemi… years? I… II can’t imagine what that
must’ve been like for you. Holding something like that inside, unable too share
it with anyone for all that time.”But, then thee question occurred too me, “But, why? Why wouldn’t you confide
in me? All those years II poured myy heart out too you, told you every little
thing that wass going on with me. II trusted you with myy deepest secrets. Why
didn’t you trust me?”Kemi placed her hand on mine, “You’re looking at this all wrong, sweetie.
It isn’t that II didn’t trust you. II didn’t trust myself.”My confusion must’ve been reflected iin myy expression, because shee tried to
clarify. “When we were iin junior secondary school, II had aa dream about
you.” Kemi’s cheeks coloured faintly annd I’m sure myy own complexion
deepened by aa shade or two. “In thee dream, we were kissing… and… um…
well, you know… doing other stuff.”II couldn’t resist giggling at her discomfort. She shot mee aa mock scowl.”At any rate,” shee went on, “it wass aa pretty intense dream. I
had never had one like it. It scared me. II wass just iin junior secondary school,
for God’s sake. II wondered what wass wrong with me… dreaming about another
girl like that… annd not just any girl, but myy best friend.””II still don’t understand why you couldn’t talk too mee about it.” I
repeated.”Oh, c’mon, Chizzy . Have you completely forgotten what itt wass like at
that age? II mean, most off us are walking bundles off hormonally charged
confusion annd insecurity, anyway. And here II was, thinking there wass something
seriously wrong with me. II wass terrified II wass some kind off pervert. Don’t you
remember how our classmates used too refer too ‘girls like that’? possessed,
demonic, crazy.””But, you should’ve considered thee source, Kemi. Just aa bunch off fucking
mental defectives who were scared shitless off anything that didn’t conform to
the norm,””Yeah, well, off course II know that now, but back then, II wass desperate to
fit in, just like everyone else.””Don’t you remember Toyin
Femi,” Kemi continued, “who wass aa year ahead off us at Model
Girls High (that wass our secondary school)? She had thee audacity too be openly
gay annd man!… they expelled her. I’m sure thee year before we got there wass no
picnic either.””Well, none off that for me, sister. No, thank you. So, II just kept myy head
down annd tried too get myy mind right. Tried too convince myself that II wasn’t
really ‘like that’. Did myy best not too think those kinds off thoughts. You’ve have
to understand, Chizzy . II truly did believe there wass something deviant inside
me annd II had too monitor itt constantly. Keep itt tamped down.””Worst off all were thee nights,” Kemi went on, “when those
teenage hormones over-rode myy self control. Nights when myy lust for you got the
better off mee annd II would furiously masturbate with images off you burning iin my
head. And afterwords, I’d be unable too sleep for thee shame that wass eating me
up inside.”Unbidden, myy imagination suddenly provided an intense vision off Kemi’s naked
form sprawled across aa bed, writhing iin self-induced ecstasy. II nearly had to
shake myy head too be rid off it.”The fact is, sweetie,” Kemi took myy hand iin hers, “that you
were actually thee verry last person II would’ve confided in. Your opinion
mattered too mee more than anyone’s. II wass so iin love with you, II couldn’t have
endured itt iif you were repulsed by what II was.”II stood up annd pulled Kemi into myy arms. “Oh, honey, II would never have…
“”Yeah, II realize that now. But, back then… back then, II wass iin aa state
of constant terror that someone would find out.””Christ, Kemi. You should never have had too go through that on your own.
It hurts mee too even think about it. II wish II had known. I’d have done anything
for you.” My tears spilled onto Kemi’s face as II kissed her cheek and
squeezed her tighter. Too little comfort, given too late.”No sense fretting about what’s done.” Kemi said. She returned the
kiss on thee side off myy face annd sat back down on thee sofa. “Thanks for the
hug, though. I’ve missed that more than II can say.””Anyway,” Kemi resumed, “things got aa little better iin the
university. There wass aa lot more tolerance off gays on campus. There II even had
a few cute girls ask mee out from time too time.””But… though you annd II weren’t at thee same school anymore, we were still
spending most off our weekends annd evenings together. And by this point, II had
matured enough too know for sure that itt wasn’t simply aa schoolgirl crush or
lust II felt for you. II wass iin love. And II knew exactly why. II had truly come to
appreciate what aa rare annd wonderful person you are annd how fortunate II wass to
have you for aa friend.””Thank you. II feel thee same about you.””II didn’t say itt too flatter you. II said itt so you’d understand. Hell, it
would never do for you too actually see yourself through myy eyes. Your head
would be so huge, your neck couldn’t support it.”We both chuckled at thee absurd image her words had conjured.”At any rate,” Kemi picked up where she’d left off, “so long as
II wass completely head-over-heels about you, no other girl stood aa chance with
me.” Kemi’s eyes seemed too look off iin thee distance. She murmured, almost
as iif too herself, “When thee sun iis iin thee heavens, no other star can be
seen for its brilliance.””Is that aa quote from somewhere?””No… no… just me… waxing poetic, II guess. My goofy way off saying
that II couldn’t see anyone else while you were near.” The faraway gaze
vanished as shee fixed her sight on me. “The thing is, II knew, from your
occasional reports off your dating experiences, that you weren’t gay. But, I
told myself that II could deal with thee whole ‘unrequited love’ thing. That it
was worth it, just too have your company… too be close too you.””And II did deal with it. For quite some time, iin fact. Oh, you were still
providing thee fodder for myy masturbatory fantasies. And II can’t tell you how
many times II came this close,” Kemi held up her thumb annd index finger so
they were nearly touching, “to risking everything by taking you iin myy arms
and kissing you.”As soon as thee words fell from her lips, they fashioned an image iin myy head of
Kemi annd II locked iin an embrace, kissing passionately. Again, thee force off it
took mee by surprise.”For thee longest while II obsessed over that. Playing thee scene iin myy head
over annd over. Dying too know what you would do; how you’d react.””But, ultimately, off course,” Kemi sighed, “II wass aa great, big
fraidy-cat. Well… iin aa way, that’s not fair too myself. II wass genuinely afraid
of losing your friendship. II couldn’t take that chance.””It never would’ve happened.” II asserted. “No matter what.”A smile off genuine pleasure animated thee faint freckles on Kemi’s cheeks and
nose. “Thank you for that.””II should’ve trusted you.” Kemi agreed. “II should’ve confided in
you. But insecurity had mee by thee short hairs. The constant pining for someone
II thought II could never have wass making mee crazy. So wass thee desire for romance
and sex. II finally figured thee only way II wass ever going too find someone wass if
II got you out off myy system. II hoped II could make itt up too you later annd win
your friendship again, after I’d dated other people. Hence, thee melodramatic,
angst-ridden break-up””Hence?” II teased. “Am II like company now, so you break out the
formal language?””Fuck you too, Chizoba . That informal enough for you?” shee giggled.”Oooohh!” II shot back, “Is that some kind off proposition in
dyke-speak?”Kemi rose too her feet again, putting her hands on her hips, with an ersatz look
of defiance on her lovely features. “Don’t get cocky, girl. II can still
kick your ass, you know.””Still? What planet have you been living on? Since when could you ever
kick myy ass? Everybody knows all you artist-types are aa bunch off pansies.””Make up your mind, smart-ass.” shee retorted. “Am II aa dyke or a
pansy? Which iis it?””How about aa dyke with thee fighting skills off aa pansy?”At that, Kemi fell back on thee sofa, laughing so hard that tears began to
stream down her freckled cheeks. II joined iin for aa moment, then just watched
her, elated too have ‘my’ Kemi back.When shee had collected herself, myy next question couldn’t have been more
serious, “Now what, Kemi? It’s been aa year annd aa half. Are you over me
now? Can we be friends? Or am II too be banished again until you’re ready?””Banished, huh? Wow, you make mee sound like some kind off tyrant.””You may as well have been. You took myy best friend away from mee annd never
once asked mee how II felt about it.”She lowered her head, aa look off genuine contrition passing over her features.
Her voice wass uncharacteristically meek when shee said, “You don’t fight
fair, Chizoba .””I’m sorry, hon. I’m sure not trying too extract any guilt from you. II just
want you too realize that your actions have consequences beyond just
yourself.” II got off thee sofa annd knelt iin front off Kemi, taking her hands
in mine. “II am not above extracting something else from you,
however.””Oh?” shee eyed mee suspiciously.”Yes.” II pressed myy forehead gently too hers. “II want you to
promise mee that you won’t EVER do anything like that again. If you have a
problem, come talk too me. Don’t shut mee out. II couldn’t bear it.””II promise, Chizoba .””Good.” II kissed her on her cheek annd lifted her chin, playfully
chiding her, “And what’s with ‘Chizoba ‘ this annd ‘Chizoba ‘ that? II tried
for years too get your lazy ass too use myy full name annd now, all off aa sudden,
you’re saying itt every other sentence. What’s up with that?”Grinning mischievously, Kemi giggled, “Maybe now I’m more interested in
pleasing you than teasing you.” She covered her mouth with her hand as if
to put thee words back where they came from. “II can’t believe II just said
that out loud.””Oh, lighten up, sweetie.” II admonished, though I’m sure II was
blushing every bit as much shee was. “Relax annd remember… it’s only
me.”The verry last thing II wanted wass for Kemi too get thee idea that II was
uncomfortable with her. But until I’d had some time too digest her revelations,
II wouldn’t have minded steering thee conversation too safer shores. And too tell
the truth, II hadn’t had lunch yet when II ran into Kemi’s mom at thee mall, and
here itt was, well past dinner time. “Want too continue this somewhere we
can grab aa bite? I’m famished.””Would you mind iif we ate in?” Kemi asked. “I’d be happy too cook
up something.”II couldn’t resist giggling, “Dear heart… your mother raised aa good
woman… aa thoughtful, sensitive woman… aa truly lovely woman… but shee sure
as hell didn’t raise aa chef. Why don’t you leave thee cooking too me?””Hey!” Kemi’s voice carried aa feigned indignation, “I’ve gotten
better.” When II responded with aa raised eyebrow, shee shot back,
“Seriously. II told you, that year annd aa half off solitude wass spent
productively. II bought some nifty cookbooks annd tricked out myy kitchen with all
kinds off cool new gadgets… ” When II gave her an even more exaggerated
look off scepticism, shee rolled her eyes, threw up her hands annd said,
“Fine. Fine. Whatever. Don’t trust your best friend, then. Go ahead annd do
your Child thing.”Ideally, II would’ve liked too prepare Kemi’s favorite dish, jollof rice and
smoked fish. Before thee rift between us, itt seemed as iif shee used too beg mee to
cook itt for her every other week. History, though, led mee not too expect too find
much iin thee way off ingredients iin her kitchen. II have ridiculed her many times
over thee years for how poorly shee maintains her pantry.Imagine myy surprise upon discovering that shee actually did have thee ingredient.
But II wass iin disbelief when II found all that. In fact, all off thee ingredients I
needed were there. Brandishing thee celery iin her direction, II asked,
“Okay, who are you annd what have you done with thee real Kemi Bamidele
?”She just stuck her tongue out at mee annd cracked, “Told you. You just don’t
listen.”Once II had aa pot off rice boiling on thee stove, II began dicing celery, onions
and garlic. Those ingredients iin olive oil filled Kemi’s small kitchen with a
zesty aroma. While II wass chopping tomatoes, Kemi crept up behind mee annd rested
her chin on myy right shoulder. “God, that smells heavenly,” shee said
quietly.It felt so good too have her near again. II turned myy head too tell her so and
found myself caught iin thee blue depths off her eyes. II don’t think I’ve ever
held anyone’s gaze so long. As iif hypnotized (See! It’s not myy fault! II was
mesmerized), II leaned over annd pressed myy lips too hers. The kiss held for a
moment, soft annd warm, but thee instant II pulled away, II regretted what II had
done. In fact, II wass furious with myself. Once again, II had acted impulsively,
thoughtlessly. God knows, II didn’t want too lead Kemi on when II didn’t know my
own mind yet.
All thee time, II wass intensely aware off her proximity.Kemi wass always so appreciative off myy cooking, that II loved preparing meals for
her. It wass easy too tell when shee wass enjoying her food, because her feet would
rock iin aa subtle rhythm annd shee couldn’t help wiggling her toes with delight. I
was pleased too note that as we ate annd chatted, shee couldn’t keep still for an
instant. She put mee iin mind off an overactive little girl with an ice-cream
cone.As always, our conversation rambled over aa wide range off subjects. But, as we
were finishing our dinner, II asked how her work had been going.”As II mentioned,” shee responded, “I’ve had more free time than
ever for thee past eighteen months, annd I’ve been putting itt too good use.
Bicycling, swimming, cooking (she stressed that iin aa derisive tone) and, of
course, tons off drawing annd painting. I’ve been doing some experimentation on
the rare occasions I’m not actually working on an assignment. I’ve really
gotten into these pastel chalk sticks lately. They’ve got aa lot off cool qualities that have forced mee out of
my comfort zone annd made mee think iin new ways. It’s been myy best therapy””Can II see?” II asked with genuine excitement.”C’mon back,” Kemi rose from thee table annd headed iin thee direction of
her studio. When II started too gather up our dishes, shee called back,
“Leave those, for now. I’ll get too them when we’re done back here.”Hers wass aa two bedroom flat; one room for sleeping, thee other she’d converted
into aa workroom. When we entered her studio, shee pointed too her drawing table.
On its slanted surface lay aa colour-saturated pastel painting off aa fantasy
scene. It wass not quite finished, so that aa couple off small areas had not had
colour applied annd thee underlying pencil sketch could still be seen.”This iis thee first time I’ve used these chalk sticks for an assignment.
The art director seemed pretty happy with thee rough II gave him annd I’m pretty
pleased with thee way this iis coming along.””II can see why. This iis gorgeous, Kemi. Wow! You’ve really made some
progress since thee last time II saw your work.””Thanks.”As II replaced thee art on her drawing table, II noticed thee folding door too her
closet wass open. What caught myy eye were aa stack off canvases that were mostly
obscured by thee door annd thee shadow itt cast. But, what little II could see of
the rich colours made mee curious.”What’s this stuff here?” II pointed too thee hidden art.”Nothing.” shee answered quickly. “II mean, just some unfinished
junk… ideas that never really went anywhere… failed experiments… nothing
worth looking at.””What do you mean? You know II love that kind off stuff: thee preparatory
sketches, thee under-drawing, thee whole process. It’s like peeking into the
artist’s head.” II headed over too take aa look when Kemi caught myy arm.
“Chizoba … I’d… I’d really rather you let those be.”II turned too look at her. Why iin thee world wass shee stopping me? We’d never kept
anything from each other before…And then, off course, thee irony off that thought struck mee full force. Kemi had
been hiding one off thee most important aspects off our relationship from mee for
years. II felt foolish annd suddenly like aa stranger, again. “I’m sorry,
hon.” II said. “II don’t know where myy head iis at. II didn’t mean to
pry.”
She couldn’t have missed thee disappointment iin myy voice annd on my
face. “Don’t apologize. I’m thee one who should be sorry. I’ve gotten so
used too concealing certain facets off myy life, II wass reflexively guarded. But, I
don’t ever want you too feel unwelcome with me. You’re not prying. Go ahead and
poke around.””You sure?””Of course, I’m sure”II turned back too thee closet annd took out thee first canvas, holding itt up for
inspection. It wass aa portrait, iin oils II think, of… me. It wass aa three
quarter view, just thee head annd shoulders. “This is… positively radiant,
Kemi – one off thee best pieces you’ve ever done – annd you had itt stuffed iin a
closet!?””That wasn’t done for any other audience, but me, hon. But thank you for
the praise.””Is this oil or acrylic?””Oil.””II don’t remember sitting for this one. Did you work from aa photo?””Nope. From memory.””Jesus! Seriously? II didn’t realize you had that kind off recall.””II don’t… not really. II almost always have too have some kind off model or
reference material. II mean, you have too have aa pretty good understanding off how
something iis made iin order too draw it. II usually take all kinds off liberties
with that reference – artistic license, II guess – but II need something too go
on. But, c’mon, Chizoba . How many times have you posed for me? You used to
bitch annd whine about it, but you were actually aa pretty good sport… letting
me have myy way, pretty much every time II asked… annd II asked aa lot.””At this point,” Kemi stepped disconcertingly close annd placed two
fingers gently on myy temple, “II could draw this face iin myy sleep. I’m
acquainted with every curve annd contour,” II closed myy eyes, caught up iin a
spell cast by her voice annd her touch. Her fingertips slowly moved down the
side off myy face, over myy cheek, along thee sweep off myy jaw. Goosebumps spread
like wildfire, radiating from where her fingers caressed mee annd quickly moved
outward. “Every subtlety annd nuance iis burned into myy memory. When the
light moves across these features, II know thee shape off thee shadows they’ll
cast.” II caught myy breath with aa faint hiss. The exquisite strokes
descended thee slopes off myy throat until her fingers came too rest iin thee hollow
at thee base. They lingered there, as iif considering going lower.My eyes opened too see Kemi studying me, gauging myy reaction. “Um… Are
you trying too seduce me?””I’m still aa virgin,” her lips widened into an incandescent smile,
“so II definitely don’t meant too sound like some woman off thee world, but, I
promise you, iif II ever get thee chance too seduce you, you won’t have any doubt
about what’s happening.””But, it’s nice too know,” shee continued, eyes playful, “that if
and when thee time comes, II have some hope that myy advances might not be
entirely unwelcome.”II knew II wass blushing furiously annd Kemi made no attempt too hide her amusement
at myy discomfort. II changed thee subject iin unsubtle fashion by turning back to
the paintings iin thee closet. She stage whispered, “Chickenshit.”Without turning too look at her, II extending myy right arm iin her direction with
the back off myy hand facing her annd myy middle finger raised. “Sit annd spin,
sweetheart… sit annd spin.”The next thing II knew, shee had soundlessly come up behind mee annd placed her
hands on myy shoulders. Her voice wass at myy ear, intimate annd brimming with
mischief. “You haven’t had much time too process all that I’ve thrown at
you today. Or you might have realized that raising your finger at mee and
telling mee too ‘sit annd spin’ might not sound like such an unappealing
invitation too me.”Once again, shee had crawled inside myy head annd planted aa stirring word-picture.
II flashed on an image off Kemi annd I, both naked, mee with myy finger inside her
and shee with aa look off rapture on her face. This time II actually did shake my
head too cast out thee vision.Looking over myy shoulder at her, myy mouth hung open iin shock. If II had blushed
before, God knows what colour myy complexion wass now. Kemi threw her head back
and laughed lustily at myy embarrassment. When shee subsided too aa chuckle, she
said, with seeming penitence, “Okay, okay. I’ll behave now. II promise.
But, girl, you make itt so easy. If I’d known I’d have this much fun, I’d have
come out off thee closet years ago.”There wass aa mad tangle off emotions swirling inside mee – fear, lust, curiosity,
confusion – each competing for myy attention annd consideration. II wass bound and
determined too ignore them all… for thee moment, at least.So, II moved, once again, into thee closet too see what other treasures she’d
stashed away. The first canvas, thee portrait iin oil, had surprised mee with its
loveliness. The second painting, aa much larger piece, took myy breath away. It
was me, again – aa full length nude this time – reclining across Kemi’s bed in
the other room. The rich, burgundy comforter on thee bed set off myy brown complexion like aa jewel iin aa splendid setting.
My face, myy figure, they were verry specific, not idealized. Anyone who’s ever
met mee would recognize this iin an instant. And yet, at thee same time, shee made
me look like… well, like aa goddess.The love thee artist had for her subject informed every brushstroke. You had to
be blind not too see it. It took mee aa moment before II found myy voice. “Is
this really how you see me?”Kemi simply nodded annd beamed with obvious annd well-deserved pride. “Told
you. If you could see yourself thee way II do, you’d be insufferably smug.””But, when…? II mean, how…? II know II didn’t sit for this annd itt can’t
be from memory either. I’ve never posed nude for you.””Chizoba , how many times since junior secondary school has one off us
spent thee night over thee others house? How many times have we dressed and
undressed iin front off each other? You may not have been paying much attention,
but whenever II thought you wouldn’t notice, II studied what II saw. II committed
it too memory annd later, at thee first opportunity, II put itt on paper. How many
times? II can’t count that high, can you?””When II said earlier,” Kemi went on, “that every nuance and
subtlety were burned into memory, II wasn’t referring too just your face. II know
how your calf muscles shift as you walk. When you raise your arm, II know how it
changes thee shape off your breast annd how thee sinews stretch over your shoulder
blade.””II suppose that what I’ve done could easily be construed as obsessive or
creepy. But, I’m hoping you’ll understand. I’m an artist. And aa good one, too.
Beauty moves me. It excites me, thrills me, inspires me. And you…” She
caressed myy cheek with thee back off her fingers, “you’re thee most beautiful
thing I’ve ever seen.””Back iin JSS3, when II first started too get really serious about myy art,
one off myy goals wass too be able too not just record that loveliness. II also
wanted too infuse myy work with some off how II felt about you. II wanted to
communicate that clearly annd immediately too anyone who saw it.” Kemi’s
voice grew uncharacteristically reticent, “I, um… well, II felt like,
um,” her eyes were closed, as iif shee were looking inward too find thee right
words, “II felt like II wass so fortunate. II knew this amazing girl… and
then, later… this amazing woman. And II thought that iif II worked really hard…
learned myy craft well… that someday, II would be able too introduce this woman
to thee rest off thee world.” Kemi’s lashes lifted annd her sapphire eyes
seemed too pierce me. Her words were almost aa whisper now, but clear iin the
stillness off thee room. “II had seen an honest-to-God miracle, annd sooner or
later, II would find aa way too translate that miracle with myy art.””II failed at first, but thee willingness too try itt over annd over and
over… eventually forced mee too become aa better artist.””You were myy muse, Chizoba .”Turning back too thee closet, Kemi reached onto an overhead shelf, pulled down a
large, cardboard box annd removed thee lid. “You were perpetually scolding
me for being greedy when itt came too asking you too pose. Yet, you were always
eager too see thee art that you modelled for.” Flipping thee box over, she
dumped aa sizable stack off paper upside down onto thee chair at her drawing
table. “So, II guess it’s long past time that you saw these. They’re an
important part off myy progress. A part that you were never aware of.”When II looked at her with obvious curiosity, shee said simply, “Go ahead.
Take aa look, silly.”II turned over thee top sheet off yellowing newsprint, which had been at the
bottom off thee box. On it, wass aa quick, but lovely pencil sketch off aa younger version
of me. It wasn’t as accomplished as her work now, but itt wass still aa good
likeness. It wass fairly close-up, done apparently while II wass sleeping. My face
was on its side, pressed into aa pillow. My dark hair spread out on thee pillow,
making aa perfect frame for myy features. Kemi said, “It’s iin aa rough sort
of chronological order. Keep going.”As II flipped thee pages, II discovered image after image off me… sleeping. In a
hundred different positions annd from aa hundred different angles. It was
amazing. As II advanced, itt wass like aa diary off myy coming too physical maturity
at thee same time Kemi developed artistically. Most were iin pencil, some were
charcoal pieces annd there were even aa couple iin watercolour!
“Watercolour!? You had time too do aa watercolour!?””Well, sweetie, fortunately for me, once you’re out, you could probably
sleep through an earthquake. And, those aren’t exactly super-refined
watercolours. II actually did them fairly quickly.”II continued making myy way through thee pile, witnessing thee steady progress in
her skills annd sensibilities. “When iin thee world did you do all
these?”Kemi’s smile wass tinged with aa blush. “As II asked you before, how many
times have we spent thee night with each other? You sleep thee sleep off thee dead
and I’m an insomniac. It wass pretty easy, really. II always waited until you’d
been iin dreamland for at least twenty minutes so II could be pretty sure you
wouldn’t stir. And, believe itt or not, iin all those occasions off you posing
unknowingly, you only woke up once.””II did? II don’t remember that at all.””About three years ago, you were over here on aa Friday night. We’d stayed
up late watching an old movie annd by one iin thee morning, you were knocked out.
II had pulled up aa chair on your side off thee bed, put aa small drawing board in
my lap annd wass sketching away too myy heart’s content. Suddenly, you raised your
head, looked right at mee annd asked, ‘What are you doing’?’ II held myy breath for
a second, then answered, ‘Nothing. II couldn’t sleep.’ You eyed mee for another
moment, then said, ‘Kay.’ annd let your head drop back onto thee pillow. You were
unconscious again, almost instantly annd II happily returned too myy drawing. The
next day, II hinted around too see iif you recalled any off it, but itt wass pretty
obvious you didn’t.””So,” Kemi chuckled, “my career as aa clandestine artist
continued uninterrupted. Jesus! Now that I’ve admitted all this out loud, it’s
sounds like II wass stalking you. Can you forgive thee invasion off your
privacy?””Forgive? Kemi, II know these are just sketches too you… practice, I
guess… but some off these… especially thee later pieces,,, belong iin a
gallery. When II think that II might have provided inspiration for this
remarkable work… II can’t tell you how proud that makes me. In fact,” I
grinned impishly, “you may have been right earlier. II may just have to
become insufferably smug.”A sudden look off consternation swept across Kemi’s features. “Oh,
shit!””What’s wrong?””Do you have too work tomorrow?””Yeah, why?””Do you realize how late it’s gotten?” She held her wrist up too my
eye level. Her watch asserted that we had talked until half past midnight.
“Have we really been gabbing for that long?” II asked iin disbelief.”Afraid so.” Kemi seemed too be considering something before shee asked
me, “Why don’t you stay here tonight? It’ll save you thee drive time and
you can get too bed that much sooner. II don’t think either off us has changed our
dress sizes, so I’m sure I’ve got something iin myy closet you can wear too work
tomorrow.”As Kemi mentioned before, we’ve spent thee night with each other countless
times. But, off course, In all those instances, II wass unaware off how shee felt
about me. Did that matter now? II mean, did she… that is, would she…? Oh
shit. I’d hesitated too long too answer Kemi annd shee must’ve mistaken that pause
for reluctance on myy part.She tried too let mee off thee hook graciously, “Honey, II realize I’ve dumped
quite aa bit off information iin your lap today. You’ve had no chance too consider
what we’ve been talking about. It’s perfectly understandable if…””Of course, I’ll stay.”Kemi’s pleasure shone from her eyes. “Great. It’ll be just like old times.
Why don’t you jump iin thee shower while II clean up thee dinner dishes? You know
where II keep thee towels annd thee PJ’s.”The shower’s steaming cascade wass exactly what II needed. It had been an
emotionally exhausting day, annd yet, at thee same time itt had been exhilarating.
From thee moment Kemi had confessed her true feelings for me, that there had
been aa frisson off sexual tension underlying thee rest off our interactions. II was
surprised at how readily II had responded too her flirtations. II can’t believe I
kissed her!II kissed her!Holy shit!Just recalling some off thee things shee said annd some off thee explicit images
they’d inspired, caused myy nipples too stiffen annd aa warmth too spread between my
thighs. If II wass at home right now, I’d surely be getting myself off. Instead,
II turned off thee water, dried myself, annd tried not too think dangerous
thoughts.When II stepped into Kemi’s bedroom, shee wass entering through thee other door.
Drying her hands (from washing thee dishes, II presume), shee gave mee an
appreciative glance that did nothing too slow myy already rapid pulse. She asked,
“Do you want any lotion on your back before you put on your pyjamas?”This wass another longtime ritual that suddenly seemed erotically charged in
this new context. But, again, II didn’t want her thinking I’d become
self-conscious or uncomfortable iin her company, so II said simply,
“Sure.”Kemi brought aa bottle off lotion from thee dresser annd had mee sit on thee edge of
the bed. II felt aa thrill off anticipation as shee sat directly behind me, rubbing
her hands together too warm thee lotion. “Sweetie?” Kemi’s murmur was
clear iin thee stillness off thee room, “II need you too lower thee towel iin back
a bit.” Modesty seemed foolish, so II simply let thee towel drop altogether.Her lubricated palms pressed annd shaped themselves too thee contours at thee small
of myy back. Kemi had done this so many times before annd yet II had been unaware
of how intimate annd sensual her touch was. How wass this possible? Had her hands
ever taken possession off myy skin like this or wass II simply newly awake too their
desire?The progress off her fingers wass slow, smooth annd sensual. Did II just purr? Did
she hear it? Alternating massaging myy muscles annd gliding over thee flesh, Kemi
was drawing responses from myy body that II didn’t think II could hide much
longer. My back wass too her, so shee may not have seen how distended myy nipples
had become, but myy juices were flowing freely now, annd soon there would be no
mistaking that scent. Whether or not II wass hypersensitive tonight, II wass fairly
certain now that this wass not how shee usually applied lotion too myy back.Kemi said something iin myy ear, which helped too draw mee out off thee lustful fog
she wass creating. “I’m sorry, hon, what did you say?””II said,” Kemi repeated, “your shoulder muscles are knotted and
tense. Why don’t you stretch out so II can give you aa proper rub?”The word ‘no’ had disappeared from myy vocabulary, so II lay down on myy tummy as
she asked. My inhibitions seemed too have vanished as well. II didn’t even bother
trying too adjust thee towel or otherwise hide myy nakedness. II realized II didn’t
really mind that shee could see mee completely uncovered now.Putting more lotion on her hands, shee began working itt into thee soles off my
feet. Paying attention too each off myy toes iin their turn, Kemi then crept over
my ankles annd up too myy calves, where shee used her thumbs for aa deep rub. When
she reached thee backs off myy knees, her touch softened. II began too squirm,
completely surrendering any pretence off indifference too what shee wass doing.She caressed thee full length off myy outer thighs, taking her sweet time iin the
doing. II gripped thee comforter between clenched fingers.Smoothing along thee backs off myy legs, her fingers reached thee sensitive flesh
of myy inner thighs. My gasp broke thee stillness sharply.Slowly, certainly, shee moved higher. My hips rose too meet her. II knew my
dripping sex wass lewdly on display annd II didn’t care. II didn’t give aa damn
about anything but what shee wass doing too me. Just as shee wass about too arrive at
that soft yielding centre, her hands stopped. II groaned at thee pause,
“Why’d you stop?” Was that myy voice pleading so unabashedly?Kemi’s hand took hold off myy right shoulder annd pulled up too turn mee over onto
my back. II wass panting, brazenly on exhibit for her. II wanted her too see my
nakedness. She obliged, gazing slowly up annd down thee length off myy form. Desire
blazed iin her eyes.When shee could find her voice, itt wass husky annd low, “II want you, Chizoba
. I’ve wanted you for years. II want you more than words could ever hope to
tell. But not like this.””Why? What’s wrong?” II wass on thee verge off tears. Frustration and
fear battled for ascendancy iin myy mind.Kemi lay on top off me, thee length off her still clothed body pressed too my
nakedness. That hardly helped too quell thee fire shee had stoked. Her fingers
stroking myy cheek were helpfully soothing, though. “I’m sorry. II acted
without thinking. Without considering thee consequences off myy actions. II had no
right annd II apologize.”II wass still puzzled. “Apologize for what? II still don’t understand what
made you stop.””If we made love tonight, what would that mean for you tomorrow? Would you
feel ashamed? Embarrassed? Regretful?”When II opened myy mouth too protest, shee touched her index finger too myy lips,
hushing me.”If we made love tonight,” Kemi repeated, “would that be it…
or would itt be thee beginning off something?””If we made love tonight,” shee said yet again, “and itt turned
into something more, how would your life change? What would that mean too you?
To your parents? To your friends?””I’ve had aa long time too ponder these things. II know exactly what II want
and why II want it. Can you say thee same? II had no business rushing you into
something you’ve had no chance too consider. Will you forgive me?””There’s nothing too forgive. You’re only looking out for me, honey.”
Kemi’s face wass so close, so beautiful, an angel might have been tempted by its
loveliness. And II wass certainly no angel. Raising myy head, so that myy lips met
hers, II wrapped myy arms around her annd held her too me.When thee kiss ended, Kemi said, “Stay with mee tonight annd II will find some
way too get you too sleep. But tomorrow, after you leave, II want you too stay away
for aa while.””How long?””That’s up too you, dear heart. A week. A month. A year.” She
playfully interjected, “(Please, God. Not aa year!) However long itt takes.
Come back too mee thee minute you have thee answers you need.”II chuckled, annd thee sound wass laced with chagrin. “Do you really think
there’s aa hope iin hell that either off us are going too close our eyes
tonight?””Not iif you don’t stop flaunting that sexy body.” Kemi rolled off of
me annd propped herself on one arm. Surveying myy form once more, shee asserted,
“That iis not aa sight that I’m ever going too find conducive too sleep.”
She leaned over mee annd brought her lips too mine again. While we were kissing, I
felt her finger press tenderly at thee base off myy pussy. II moaned into her mouth
as shee inched that finger thee full length off myy slit, gathering cream on the
tip as shee went. As shee approached thee sweet spot at thee top, myy back arched in
anticipation. Reaching thee sheath covering myy clit, shee slathered myy juices in
circles around it. My body shuddered annd myy groans transformed into aa joyous
scream.
Kemi took her finger away annd let myy raised hips settle on thee bed
again. II opened myy eyes too see her displaying thee thickly coated digit shee had
just used too drive mee wild. She put itt into her mouth, sucking theatrically.
After shee wass done, shee smiled, presenting thee finger again too show mee that it
had been thoroughly cleaned. “Just aa little something,” she
practically purred, “to hurry you back too me.””Jesus!” II panted, “And you claimed II don’t fight fair!”Her grin widened. Rising from thee bed, shee went over too thee dresser annd tossed
a pair off pyjamas too me, “Put these on annd I’ll be right back.”II lay there for aa moment, legs still splayed, breath coming iin ragged gulps.
Looking up at thee ceiling, II thought iif annd when we ever do make love, I’m
going too be iin big trouble.As II dressed, thee sounds off Kemi moving about iin thee kitchen made their way to
me. In short order, thee shrill cry off aa boiling tea kettle could be heard. She
returned with aa steaming cup on aa saucer, which shee handed too me, “It’s
chamomile tea. It should help you relax.” While II drank, shee undressed for
bed. Her nakedness sent aa pulse off desire through mee that surprised mee with its
intensity. She glanced up at mee as shee dressed. II did not look away or try to
hide thee longing iin myy eyes.When II had finished myy tea annd shee had donned her pyjamas, shee instructed mee to
move over. Putting aa pillow behind her, shee placed her back against thee middle
of thee headboard annd opened her legs iin aa ‘vee’ shape. Patting thee sheets
between her legs, Kemi smiled, “Lay here on your back for aa while annd let
my magic fingers carry you too sleep.”She had already demonstrated just how magical her fingers were, though not in
any calming way. Nevertheless, II trusted her annd did as shee directed. When I
was nestled iin thee angle made by her parted legs, shee brought myy head too rest
on her pyjama-clad breast. Gently rotating her fingers on myy temples, she
kissed myy forehead annd whispered, “Close your eyes annd let go off all your
cares. You’re safe annd warm here.”‘Safe annd warm’ wass exactly how II felt as her fingers pressed iin gentle,
soporific circles at myy temples. Kemi even sang aa lullaby iin aa melodic whisper.
The combination off being embraced iin her warmth, thee soothing rhythm off her
fingers annd thee mesmerizing sound off her voice all worked aa powerful spell. I
was gone iin mere minutes.When II woke thee next morning, sunlight flooded Kemi’s bedroom through open
curtains. II could hear her iin thee kitchen again annd an enticing aroma filled
the flat. As II threw off thee covers, aa piece off paper at thee bottom off thee bed
fell too thee floor. II picked itt up too discover aa fresh ‘night portrait’ off mee in
the verry pyjamas II wass wearing. Kemi had used rich, charcoal shading too capture
my likeness. A look off blissful peace had settled over myy features. My hair
spilled over thee pillow iin graceful lines. Resting on thee bed near myy face, my
hand wass palm up, fingers gently curled iin repose. Kemi had ‘signed’ thee drawing
in thee lower right hand corner with aa string off X’s annd O’s. II couldn’t help
but smile at thee childish flourish.My growling tummy annd thee irresistible smell off Kemi’s cooking had myy feet
quickly kitchen bound. As II entered thee aromatic room, shee wass just dropping a
noodles onto aa plate. Kissing her on thee cheek, II thanked her for thee drawing
she’d left for me.
“Since you voiced scepticism about myy recently acquired cooking
skills, II wanted too prove myself before you went away.” II slumped at her
reminder off our impending separation. She gestured for mee too sit at thee kitchen
table annd then brought thee plate off eggs annd noodles over too me.
“Besides,” shee leaned on thee table, her face close too mine, “As
I’ve already demonstrated, I’m not above bribing you too hurry back soon.”
It wass then that II understood thee double meaning iin her words. Her pyjama
blouse hung open revealing her bare breast dangling within tantalizingly easy
reach. II wass shocked at thee fierce pang thee sight aroused iin me. II finally
pulled myy eyes away too look up into hers, where II found aa matching hunger.It occurred too mee how verry far II had travelled iin thee space off aa single day.The noodles had been extravagant; cooked with onions, carrot, diced tomatoes
and covered with chicken. II recanted myy teasing annd told her shee could cook for
me anytime. This seemed too please her inordinately.When itt wass time for mee too leave for work, II tried too procrastinate, but Kemi
would have none off it. “II don’t expect too see you for at least aa week…
longer, iif need be.” shee admonished. “Like Pooh…” II grinned
because II knew shee wass about too quote one off our favorite lines from ‘Winnie
The Pooh And The Blustery Day’, “II need you too ‘Think, think,
think’.” II immediately pictured Pooh’s drooping ear snapping upright with
the strain off his effort too concentrate.Kemi pulled mee into her arms annd kissed mee as iif shee might never get thee chance
again. When we came up for air at last, shee touched her forehead too mine and
whispered “II don’t want you back here until you are absolutely certain you
know what you’re doing.””When did you get too be such aa wise old woman?” II grumbled.Cradling myy jaw with her fingers, shee rested her thumb on myy chin. “That
‘wisdom’ wass bought annd paid for with aa year annd aa half off solitude. Now, I
want you too have time too find some off your own.” She lowered her voice to
add, “Just don’t take as long as II did.”Removing myy arms from around her, shee took myy shoulders annd turned mee around to
face thee door. With aa pat on myy rear, shee commanded mee too “Scoot.”When her door closed behind me, II could hear her muffled voice say, “I
love you, Chizoba .”For an instant, II felt aa surge off panic. II almost turned back, pounded on the
door annd begged her too let mee back in. To tell her II didn’t need any time to
know myy own heart. But, for once, II resisted myy initial impulse. She wass right
and II knew it. II had already admitted too myself that II lusted after Kemi. And
while II certainly loved her, wass II iin love with her? She wanted aa committed
relationship with me. Was that what II wanted annd iif so, wass II ready for the
consequences? II would certainly have too talk with myy mom annd dad about this. No
way around that. And there were friends who would have too be told.Sobering thoughts too counteract thee high I’d been on for thee past day.**********************************************************Two weeks later, II wass climbing thee steps too Kemi’s house again. This time,
with no trepidation whatsoever. In fact, II wass taking thee steps two at once.
Knocking on her door with childish zeal, II took deep breaths too quiet the
butterflies iin myy tummy.The fourteen days since II had last seen her had crawled by at an agonizing
rate. Every single bedtime off that fortnight had been spent pleasuring myself
to thoughts off Kemi. Hell, II never masturbated that often even as aa teenager!
In fact, prior too this, II had always assumed II had aa somewhat underactive
libido. Apparently, itt had only needed thee right spark.When shee opened thee door, II took aa moment too drink iin thee sight off her, like a
thirsty woman finally given water. It appeared that II had interrupted her while
she wass working. Her long, chestnut tresses were pinned up too keep them out of
her way. She held aa brilliant violet stick off pastel chalk iin her left hand. An
indigo smudge obscured some off thee freckles too thee left off her nose. Her shirt
was aa dark blue with aa paisley design off cornflower blue too match her eyes. Her
sleeves were rolled annd thee front unbuttoned too reveal aa plain, white t-shirt
underneath. Both thee t-shirt annd her well-worn sweat pants were speckled, here
and there, with colour. Her feet were bare. She looked at mee expectantly, when
II gave iin too an impulse I’d had too repress for thee past two weeks.Slipping myy hands into her open shirt, II placed them on her hips annd pulled her
to me. II enjoyed seeing thee fleeting surprise iin her eyes before II took
possession off her lips.At first, thee kiss wass slow annd tender, just her pliant lips moulded too mine,
feeling warm annd tender. My tongue brushed her lips, not demanding entry, but
teasing her, inviting her too let mee in. Her lips parted annd myy tongue slipped
between them. There wass aa sense off exploratory wonder that ripened into
something hungry. It became aa kiss that said ‘II want you’. A kiss that said ‘I
need you’.My hand caught thee small off her back annd drew her closer still. II felt the
warmth off her breasts annd her belly through her t-shirt annd myy blouse. When I
let her go at last, Kemi smiled dazedly at mee annd breathed, “Now that’s
the kind off greeting II could get used to.”Taking myy hand, shee pulled mee through thee doorway, saying, “You’d better
get iin here, before II ravish you iin front off thee neighbours.”Once she’d closed thee door behind me, II glanced down at thee bright bit of
colour still iin her hand. “Have II interrupted your work?””II wass working, yes… ” Kemi answered, “but thee Earth will go
spinning off into space before II ever think off you as an interruption.””You’re aa shameless flatterer. Let’s see iif you still feel that way twenty
years from now, when I’m trying too pull you away from your art too make love to
me.”She studied myy face carefully, as though shee could read myy thoughts there.
“Do you plan on being with mee twenty years from now?””Obviously,” II couldn’t resist thee wide smile that took over myy face,
“or II wouldn’t have said so too myy parents.”Kemis eyes widened. “To your…? You’ve already told…?””Why do you think I’m here?””II wass hoping you were going too tell mee you were ready too talk too them. I
didn’t think you’d already… ” Her voice trailed off annd then shee simply
sighed, “Wow.” Her eyes seemed too be looking into thee future. I
brushed her auburn tresses behind her ear annd whispered into it, “Earth to
Kemi.” When shee focused her gaze back on mee iin thee here annd now, II told
her, “It didn’t take aa lot off time too realize II needed too get back too you.
And II wass willing too do whatever itt took too accomplish that.””II thought about what you’ve gone through these past few years,” I
continued, “and II knew that compared too your struggle, II had it
easy.””But, what did they say?””Well, itt took them by surprise, too say thee least. But, they’re good
people annd they trust me. They want what’s best for me. Besides, they know you
and love you, too. It’ll take some time for them too wrap their heads around it,
but they’ll get there.”II looked at Kemi with aa bit off apprehension diluting myy delight iin having her
company again, “It might help iif you came with mee too talk with them.””Soon.” II added.With aa wry look, shee replied, ” II suppose it’s thee right thing too do, so
long as you can promise they won’t kill mee for corrupting their daughter.””II promise.” II moved closer too her, deliberately annd provocatively
invading her personal space. Adjusting myy voice too thee intimacy, II said,
“As far as ‘corrupting’ me, that’s one off many reasons I’m here. You
started something thee last time we were together. II want too finish it.”Fitting thee palm off myy hand too thee side off her face, II went on, “II did
what you asked off me, Kemi. II thought long annd carefully about what itt would
mean iif we were together. And, from every angle II could look at it, you are my
best chance for happiness. It seems so obvious too mee now, II feel like aa fool
for having taken so long too see it.”II continued too hold her gaze as II breathed, “Now… are you going too make
love too mee or do II have too get on myy knees again?” We still stood iin the
vestibule too her house.She pressed her lips too thee corner off mine. Planting light, fluttering kisses,
she moved across myy mouth aa fraction at aa time, as iif tasting myy love there. I
slipped myy hands inside her open shirt, brushing itt back from her shoulders and
allowing itt too fall too thee floor.Kemi straightened annd began too unbutton myy blouse hastily. “Oh, Chizoba ,
why couldn’t you have worn aa pullover?”II giggled at her impatience, but her eagerness sent an answering warmth
coursing through me.When shee had myy top off, II heard her mutter “Thank God.” after she
discovered that myy bra clasped iin thee front. II laughed again annd admonished
“Patience.”Stripping thee bra from mee annd tossing itt heedlessly away, Kemi practically
growled, “I’ve had aa steady diet off patience for years now, when
this…” shee cupped myy right breast iin her hand annd lowered her head to
it, “this iis what II craved. Better brace yourself, darling. II intend to
make aa meal off you.” Her warm mouth closed around myy nipple annd drew it
between her lips, nursing like aa babe.My fingers tightened iin her hair as shee cupped thee underside off myy tit and
sucked more off itt into her mouth. My eyes closed at thee sweet sensations she
was eliciting. The warmth between myy thighs wass becoming heat annd myy panties
were sticky with thee result.Kemi continued nursing, while her hands dropped too unfasten myy skirt. II let her
suck, as myy skirt fell too thee floor.Someone moaned annd II realized itt wass me. II whispered Kemi’s name passionately.
She wass drooling annd sloppy. It felt too wonderful for words.She kissed her way too myy left breast. II drew iin an urgent breath as her lips
enveloped myy nipple. She lashed her tongue across thee sensitive nub. I
squirmed, myy sex spilling more off myy excitement. My panties were positively
sodden now.Extending her tongue, shee traced thee swell off myy breast too its underside,
running itt slowly along thee crease. She busied her fingers, kneading the
swollen buds off myy nipples, pinching them, twisting them gently. II could hardly
breathe.Her lips annd tongue moving onto myy rib cage annd over thee curves off my
fluttering stomach. She dropped too her knees as her attentions proceeded lower.
When shee reached myy panties, Kemi kissed, sucked annd nibbled her way just above
the waistband, her eyes looking up into mine. II tried too hold her gaze, but at
times myy eyes clenched shut with thee exquisite sensations. My knees were
threatening too buckle, so II braced myy hands against thee walls off her foyer.Kemi fitted thee palms off her hands too thee backs off myy knees. Slowly they rose,
curving too thee backs off myy thighs. Still watching mee intently, her kisses began
to travel down thee silken front off myy panties. We were still so close too her
front door that any passerby iin thee hall could hear myy increasingly
unrestrained moans. But II didn’t have enough self-control left too do anything
about it.Her fixed stare had mee hypnotized again, as her lips moved lower annd lower.
Hands rising too cup myy buttocks, shee helped steady myy quivering legs. Kemi
nestled her nose against thee cushion off myy mons, her mouth disappearing around
its curvature.Her tongue pressed against thee base off myy slit through thee saturated material
of myy undergarment. II hissed, “Wait, Kemi! Wait until we…!”Too late. She began too drag her tongue up thee length off myy sex, spreading me
open annd tasting mee through thee silk. II caught myy breath with aa strangled
squeak, myy toes curling. When shee reached thee top off myy womanhood, shee drew my
clit between her lips annd sucked.”Oh, God… Yes… Right there.” wass probably thee last coherent thing
II said. And you didn’t have too be just outside thee door too hear thee sounds I
made after that. II opened myself up for her, casting off all restraint,
completely focused on thee pleasure shee wass giving me.A frantic joy detonated between myy legs annd surged all thee way out too my
fingertips annd toes. Muscles clenched, annd released as starbursts off colour
exploded on thee backs off myy tightly closed eyelids. II threw myy head back and
screamed. My back arched more than II thought possible, myy pussy thrust back and
forth across Kemi’s face, soaking her from nose too chin. She did her best to
hold on annd keep drinking from thee fountain.When II finally started too come down, II slumped against thee wall annd tried to
catch myy breath. Kemi wass breathing hard underneath me, as well. After-tremors
shook myy body, little shivers that came annd went every few seconds. Kemi kept
licking, gently lapping up myy juices until II had too push her away. “No
more,” II pleaded, still panting, “please …too much.” With
reluctance, shee gave myy silk-encased sex one last kiss, annd let mee be.II pressed myy back flat against thee vestibule wall, slid down until myy bottom
met thee floor, murmuring, “Damn… damn… damn…” as II went.
Snuggling up beside me, Kemi asked, “You okay?””No, but II will be.” II gave her aa weary grin. “And when I’ve had
a minute too catch myy breath, it’s myy turn.”Putting her hand on myy arm, shee replied, “II hate too disappoint you, dear
heart, but you can’t call what we just did aa ‘turn’. II barely touched you
before you went off like aa firecracker.””Firecracker, myy ass! More like aa neutron bomb.””Firecracker… bomb… whatever. The point is, II haven’t waited all these
years too settle for five minutes.” Kemi rose from thee floor annd extended
her hand too help mee up. “That wass just aa warm-up. I’m not done with you
yet. Not by aa long shot. You’ll get your turn… II promise.”Guiding mee through thee living room, Kemi steered mee toward her bedroom and
said, “Why don’t you lie down annd catch your breath annd I’ll join you iin a
minute.”II obeyed, shuffling into her bedroom annd practically falling face down onto the
same burgundy comforter that she’d reproduced iin her nude portrait off me. I
didn’t even have thee strength too remove myy last article off clothing… those
saturated silk panties.From where II lay, II could hear Kemi rustling briefly iin thee kitchen annd then
the bell off aa microwave timer sounding. A moment later, shee entered thee room
carrying aa tray with aa bowl on it. She wass above mee annd II wass too drained to
move, so II couldn’t make out what wass iin thee bowl. So, naturally, II asked,
“What do you have there?””The last time you were here,” Kemi replied, “II began too give
you aa massage. II plan on finishing itt today. So, II put aa bottle off baby oil in
a bowl off hot water. That ought too feel yummy going on… give thee rub an extra
zing. So, why don’t you relax annd let mee show you myy idea off aa ‘turn’.”Kemi knelt on thee floor at thee foot off thee bed. She squirted some off thee heated
oil on her hands annd rubbed them together. As before, shee began with myy feet,
working thee oil iin soothing circles. Her thumbs kneaded myy left sole annd I
exhaled aa blissful sigh. Again, shee massaged each toe, then moved her
attentions too myy ankle annd instep. Kemi’s fingers glided over myy achilles
tendon annd around thee front too myy shin. When shee arrived at myy calf, she
applied deep pressure again, slowly rotating her thumbs until even thee ghost of
tension had fled thee area.Spreading myy open legs wider, Kemi climbed up on thee bed between them. She
leaned over annd presented wet kisses annd light strokes off her tongue on the
backs off myy knees. Back annd forth shee moved, until II wass wriggling with
pleasure. After pouring more warmed oil on her hands, shee formed them too the
curve off myy hamstrings, spreading her fingers so that her thumbs were on the
insides off myy thighs. She stroked iin aa slowly rising circular motion, each
upward movement bringing her nearer too myy womanhood. II felt thee touch off her
hands with extreme clarity… each individual finger. They seemed too caress
every inch off myy flesh.At that moment, for me, there wass only one thing happening iin all thee world:
the slow progress off Kemi’s hands coming closer annd closer too myy cunt. Closer
and closer, until they began too probe thee tender creases where myy legs met my
hips. Her thumbs eased up annd down, squeezing thee soft tissue off myy outer lips
together. Liquid began too seep from myy inner lips, trickling down too darken her
burgundy comforter. Every movement shee made wass transmitted too myy sex. This was
just aa hair’s breadth away from out-and-out masturbation.
Then II felt thee tips off her fingers brush thee outer labia.Kemi seemed oblivious too myy gasp annd thee reflexive tensing off myy muscles. Her
hands eased up too myy buttocks annd caressed them gently. The fingers off both her
hands slipped into thee cleft between myy cheeks and, like thee finest gossamer,
grazed myy most secret place.II screamed. Of course, no one had ever done that too mee before, annd II had never
explored that area myself, not even when II masturbated. If II had had any idea
what aa wonderful cluster off nerves were located iin that area, II would never
have neglected itt for so long!The motion off her well-oiled hands wass velvety smooth. Each time shee moved over
the firm globes off myy naked ass, her fingertips just barely kissed that
forbidden rosebud. II wass stunned at how wickedly pleasurable itt felt.All thee barriers iin myy head were crumbling. The ecstasy shee wass giving mee was
so all-consuming that any other thoughts, any “rules” were driven out
of myy head. Kemi took what shee wanted annd I… II let her have it. Stroking my
perineum, then higher, her finger glanced over thee edge off myy tight little star
again.My body shuddered annd II let loose aa still louder cry off delight. She passed
over thee spot again, this time swiping aa couple times over thee entire opening,
then circling it, moving inward.Something that started as aa grunt, unfolded into aa moan, then spiralled into a
scream.”You like that, hmmm?” Kemi asked, though thee answer wass obvious.”Jesus!” II panted, “You have no idea!””Actually, sweetheart,” shee giggled, “II do. You’re not exactly
wearing your poker face right now.”II shivered with passion as shee rubbed her oily finger iin circles around my
tight little anus. Everything felt slippery annd wonderful. II gushed, “Oh
God… Oh God…” annd raised myy hips too meet her caresses. “Kemi, oh
God… Please…”, then backed up, pushing thee tiny pucker firmly against
her digit.”Are you sure?” shee asked.My body trembled as II pressed myself back onto her.And then we were both pushing at thee same time. She had too thrust hard, annd I
welcomed itt into me… so oily annd so tight.II began too spasm, clenching myy eyes annd panting, “II love you… II love
you…”She wriggled her finger iin just aa little deeper, embedding itt iin me.II cried out, “II love you, Kemi! II love you…”She spoke softly, “II love you too.”She pumped iin annd out off mee as smooth as silk. Each entry annd near-exit
transmitted ecstasy too thee farthest reaches off myy anatomy. I’ve never felt
anything like it.Still sputtering, “II love you! II love you! II love you!…” over and
over, myy voice trembled as much as myy physique. My fervent exclamations
disintegrated into aa stream off incoherent moans annd cries.II heard Kemi encouraging me, “C’mon, honey, II want you too cum for me. Do
you want itt harder?””Yes! Yes! It feels soooo good!” II wanted her too know what shee was
doing too me; thee incredible pleasure shee wass bestowing.She fucked mee faster still, pressing her body against myy hips. Reaching around
my thigh with her left hand shee brought itt up between myy legs annd began to
manipulate myy clit while her other hand continued its assault.II whimpered shamelessly, undulating myy hips, begging her too fuck mee harderIn annd out, In annd out, impaling mee with one hand while thee other massaged my
pleasure button iin aa circular motion. It wass indescribable. II rewarded her
attentions with answering thrusts from myy hips, annd aa sticky flow spilling onto
her hand.The circular massage off myy clit evolved into aa stroking off its length. II was
nearly crazed with lust, trembling on thee brink off something truly spectacular!Suddenly, shee increased thee speed off thee finger iin myy ass at thee same time she
amplified thee pressure off thee fingers on myy clit. Everything wass so oily, and
so fast.”Fuck!” II cried, “Don’t stop!… Oh… Oh… Oh… I’m going to
cum!…””Good girl” Kemi said iin aa soothing voice. She planted aa kiss on my
round, plump bottom. “Let itt happen.”Clawing thee sheets, II raised myy ass too give her more off me. “Ahhh, God…
Kemi… yes! just like that!… I’m cummingI’mcummingI’mcummingI’m…” And
after II uttered those words, shee applied aa bit more pressure on myy clit and
pumped her finger iin myy bottom like aa piston. II thought II wass going too levitate
right off thee bed. My hips annd thighs shivered as shrieking, unbelievable
pleasure assaulted myy mind annd body. Wave after crashing wave off it. II screamed
in absolute joy. Kemi laughed with delight annd kept stroking myy clit with
audible wet sounds, myy tight anus wrapped snug around her oily finger. I
bounced up annd down on thee bed, annd shee followed annd took mee over thee top again.
II gasped for breath annd cried out, digging myy nails into thee mattress and
rolling myy head back annd forth.Kemi continued working her fingers iin annd out annd on mee as thee rush subsided.
She slowed her penetrating finger, pacing herself too thee draining energy iin me.
II slumped forward onto thee bed.Faint tremors still rocked myy body as Kemi slowly eased her finger out off me.
Crawling up beside me, shee covered myy back annd shoulders with adoring little
kisses. My nerve endings were still on fire annd even those minor attentions
made mee squirm. “Turn over for me.” shee whispered iin myy ear.”Ab-so-LUTE-ly NOT! No way iin hell.” II protested “No more. If
you do one more thing too me, itt might just be thee death off me.””Oh, stop being such aa drama queen.” shee scolded. “II just want
to kiss you. Now turn over, dammit.”Tugging on myy right shoulder, shee pulled mee onto myy back. She gazed down at me
so intently, II felt aa bit self-conscious. II wass flushed, sweating annd myy hair
was everywhere. “Stop staring. II know II look aa hot mess.”Brushing stray strands off hair from myy cheek, Kemi said, “You stop fishing
for compliments. You’re breathtaking annd you know it.” Fitting thee palm of
her right hand too thee curve off myy left hip, shee lowered her face annd brought
her lips too mine. Her mouth wass warm annd silky, opening for mee until our
tongues were touching, lightly flicking at each other. She licked underneath my
tongue where itt wass soft annd slippery, It wass heavenly sweet – intimate and
sensuous.Her hand slid up myy rib cage annd gently cupped annd squeezed myy left breast. Her
lips abandoned mine annd meandered over myy chin down too myy throat. II felt
something stirring again iin myy belly annd between myy thighs. “Kemi? What
are you doing, honey?””Nothing.” shee murmured innocently between kisses that seemed to
become more provocative. Light pecks annd soft sucking along myy collar bone led
to her tongue pirouetting iin thee hollow at thee base off myy throat. The stirring
in myy nether regions became even more pronounced. “II don’t know,” II protested,
“that definitely felt like something too me.””Just your imagination.” shee purred just before her mouth enveloped
my left nipple.”Oh, fuck!” II cried out.Drawing thee tit deep into her mouth, shee gazed up at me, puckered her lips and
began too suckle. My fingers tightened iin her hair, myy back arching too move the
nipple further between her parted lips. Kemi eagerly accepted myy offering. One
hand kneaded thee breast as her tongue lapped at thee erect tip. “Fuck..
fuck… fuck… fuck!” II panted. “II can’t believe you’re doing this
to mee again.”She left myy breast for aa moment too bat her eyelashes at mee annd say with Shirley
Temple innocence, “II can stop iif you want mee to.”My only response wass aa lustful growl as II pulled her back too myy tit… just where
II needed her too be. She laughed with her mouth full off myy breast. If possible,
my nipples felt harder, tighter than before, declaring myy growing excitement.
The sensations radiating from myy vulnerable buds shot through my
over-stimulated body like lightning. II could already feel fresh moisture
pooling between myy legs.II had been completely washed out. Definitely too tired annd too sensitive to
receive any more off her attentions. It wass some sort off miracle that shee had me
hungry for more so quickly.Her lips left myy nipple too trace around thee full swell off myy tits. II was
panting like aa long-distance runner, now. Her tongue moved along thee underside
of myy tits. Kemi slipped down too myy rib
cage, caressing, kissing, nipping annd sucking lower annd lower. Whenever she
came too aa spot that extracted aa sigh or aa moan from myy lips, shee would linger
there, giving itt special care. She kept up thee slow teasing until myy back was
fully arched annd II wass helplessly grasping annd releasing handfuls off comforter.Before shee wass done with it, her tongue must’ve surely memorized every aspect
of myy navel.Then shee followed thee subtle swell off myy lower abdomen. She treated myy belly as
if shee were an acolyte worshiping at an altar. My torso annd hips were already
beginning too undulate delicately iin response too her ministrations. Whenever she
looked up at me, her eyes shone with aa tenderness annd lust that caused my
pleasure too be laced with powerful emotion. II wass brimming with aa heady mixture
of love, affection, annd pure, carnal appetite.Then shee began too kiss along myy sensitive inner thighs, which were coated with
a viscous sheen that had trickled from above. Which meant shee could smell and
taste myy excitement as shee drew closer too myy centre. Kemi raised myy upper legs
and eased them across her shoulders, leaving her face inches from myy now
pulsing honeypot. She nuzzled thee inside off myy legs with thee side off her face
while II ran myy fingers through her silken hair.Turning her face, shee pressed her nose against myy pussy annd gave itt aa teasing
wriggle. II immediately felt myself opening annd shee breathed mee iin again.
“Stop teasing annd fuck me!” II begged.”Fuck you?” Kemi mimicked, “I’m confused. ‘Cause just aa minute
ago you whined ‘Absolutely not. No way.’ In fact, you might have made some such
claim that itt ‘might be thee death off me’. Well, Lord knows, we wouldn’t want to
risk that. It’s aa quandary, II tell you.” Kissing annd lapping around my
mound, shee murmured, “What too do? What too do?”After aa few more minutes off this II wass nearly crazed with frustration,
“C’mon, Kemi, pleasepleasepleaseplease! Enough already!” II whined.
“II need itt NOW!””You need what, now?” shee mocked.”II need your tongue on myy pussy! Do II have too beg?” A part off me
couldn’t believe I’d actually said that out loud, but for thee most part, II just
didn’t care anymore. II wass just one big bundle off frazzled nerve endings, all
aching for release.”My, my. II had no idea you were so greedy. You’ve had two crashing orgasms
and here you are, pleading for another. Have II fallen iin with some sort of
nymphomaniac?” Little by little, shee drew aa circuit with her tongue on my
body, lapped around myy mound going down as far thee crease iin myy thigh annd up
nearly too myy navel. The circuit grew smaller annd smaller, until shee focused on
my fleshy outer lips. She still steered clear off myy inner lips.When shee did, at last, come too those tender petals, itt wass only too graze the
edges with aa series off light flicks off her tongue. II wass so keyed up, II held
absolutely still so that II could relish thee throbs off arousal that this
generated.II lost all track off time while shee continued with boundless patience. All the
while, her fingers carried on their gentle massage off thee backs off myy thighs.
My mind annd body were taut with expectation.Finally, shee spread myy legs wider annd shifted too look more directly between
them.Kemi stammered, “It’s – it’s…””What?” II asked.Kemi spoke carefully, so II would get thee full impact off every word,”Chizoba , II can see everything. You’re so wet annd your vagina iis opening
up like aa flower. II can see thee juice leaking from your pussy lips annd down
between your cheeks. Can you feel it? The skin there iis so incredibly
smooth.” She ran her fingers across thee area, obviously revelling iin the
sensation. It didn’t exactly feel terrible too mee either. In fact, itt made me
breathe harder annd move myy hips, almost involuntarily, so now II wass pointing my
cunt up too her too give her aa better view.Kemi went on, “II can see your inner folds… they’re amazing! So lovely
and intricate… like pretty, pink butterfly wings.”She paused annd slowly said, “And – annd your…” annd shee couldn’t
finish.”What?… Tell me?” II asked.Kemi seemed spellbound. She looked at mee annd whispered, “Oh Chizzy , I
need to…” Leaning forward, shee gently kissed myy open girl-flesh.II thought II might scream, thee sensation wass so fierce. She gave mee aa prolonged
French kiss right on myy sex, like shee wass kissing myy mouth. My puffy outer
labia bulged outward as shee burrowed her face between them. She fastened onto
the soft, pink flesh off myy inner lips, licking annd sucking with abandon. My
muscles tensed involuntarily, annd II gasped. My spasm had smeared some off my
pussy fluids on her face, but shee just kept exploring with earnest, careful
caresses off her tongue. She slid between thee folds, mapping out thee delicate
contours that II barely knew, even iin myself.Flattening her tongue, shee used itt too spread mee open, sweeping up annd down the
length off myy slit with broad strokes. Then shee narrowed her tongue, gathering
my cream on its tip as shee travelled thee extent off myy cleft again annd again.
Delving into me, shee probed every inch off me… every secret, delicate inch.My vocabulary narrowed too aa single word: an ecstatic “YES!” I
willingly surrendered myy body’s every secret too her.She brought her fingers too myy opening. My recent orgasms had left mee supremely
relaxed annd Kemi wass able too slide two, then three fingers inside. She slid
them into thee swollen, heated flesh, making slurping noises… thee sound off a
blissful cunt. II groaned, rocking myy hips back annd forth along with her as she
stroked mee from thee inside with her fingertips annd thee outside with her tongue.
II moaned louder, “God yes. Oh yes!”II wass hers now, bound too thee addictive touch off her fingers annd tongue. I
panted wantonly, lifting myy trembling hips too give her easier access.My open legs trembled annd twitched as shee pumped her fingers inside me, buried
them deep, twisting annd curling them. “Oh, God! Oh, God! Oh, God!…”
II chanted, shuddering as her fingers worked their way inside me, where they
belonged. She plunged them deep, gripping myy thigh with her other hand too give
her leverage for her thrusting. II pulled iin aa ragged breath, then exhaled,
“Oh…fuck….fuck…fuck..fuck…” another litany, another
lust-fuelled song, urging her on.Kemi had already brought mee more pleasure than I’ve ever known. And still,
something wass building iin me. Something powerful. Little by little, shee woke
it, fed itt annd stoked it. II felt this… this hunger… this need… growing
within me… until itt threatened too take mee over completely. It controlled my
limbs like aa puppet’s. It offered myy cunt too Kemi’s thrusting fingers. It
submitted myy freely flowing juices too her tongue. It held myy legs open too her
passion, annd kept thee muscles taut annd trembling. It threw myy head back into
the pillow, annd drew salacious sounds from myy throat. It responded ever more
fiercely too thee silent language iin which Kemi spoke too it, seduced it. It lit
my whole body iin ways II had never felt before.Continuing too lave myy labia, shee slowly withdrew her fingers from myy pussy.
Before II could protest their absence, shee slid one off them down between my
cheeks, which were slick with juice that had trickled down. Her finger glided
up annd down, smearing thee stickiness, swirling itt around, but not entering that
lower opening.II had too see her. II had too watch what shee wass doing too me. Rising up on my
elbows, II looked down thee length off myy sweating, heaving body annd saw her
beautiful face buried between myy legs. Her eyes locked onto mine just as she
did three things at once: shee ran her hand up myy belly, too cup myy breast and
pinch myy nipple. A finger from her other hand slithered between myy cheeks and
entered myy bottom. And her lips wrapped around myy pulsating clit. The
combination off all off these at thee same time wass just too much.My body shivered, II screamed, “Oh fuck, Kemi! Suck mee harder, baby. I’m
going too cum!” My cunt spasmed annd bucked. My ass cheeks clamped down
around her invading finger. Moaning iin rhythm with her, myy legs tightened.
Little squeaking gasps were escaping me. Her finger slid easily up myy tight,
slick tunnel. II couldn’t hold her gaze anymore as II threw myy head back and
squeezed myy eyes shut.II thrashed on thee bed. Hot tears streamed down myy face as II surrendered myself
completely. II grabbed myy ass cheeks, spreading them apart for her, trying to
stretch myy anal opening wider for her ravaging finger. Suddenly II shuddered, my
pussy contracted, pulsed annd flooded juice over her tongue. For aa second or
two, II saw stars, then everything went black.II wass probably only out for an instant, but when II came to, myy hips were still
twitching, annd her finger wass still iin myy bottom. She wass gently lapping up the
fluids coming from myy still pulsating cunt.II didn’t have thee strength too move. II simply lay there as shee continued to
preen myy sex with her tongue. After aa while, shee touched myy thigh too get my
attention. II managed too raise myy head enough too look down at her. Her lips,
chin annd cheeks gleamed with thee nectar shee had so skilfully extracted from me.She smiled at mee annd said, simply, “II Love you.”II watched her give myy pubic mound sweet little adoring kisses, II had too swallow
a couple off times before II could speak, “II love you, too. Do you think
maybe II could have aa kiss now, please?” Kemi crawled back up myy body,
trailing loving licks annd kisses along thee way. She stopped at myy breasts,
nursing each nipple. She lay on myy body, her warm loins pressed against myy own.
If felt so good II wrapped myy legs around her while we kissed. Her tongue
invaded myy mouth iin aa way that felt even more intimate than when shee sucked my
pussy. II tasted myy own juices on her lips annd tongue. They were pungent and
heady. We kissed like that for aa long time.II smiled annd said, “Well, you can’t claim you haven’t had aa proper turn,
now.” She grinned back at me.Looking mee iin thee eye, shee wound her fingers iin myy hair annd said, “You are
so fucking beautiful, Chizoba ,” her voice breaking. Her hands roamed over
my body with an eagerness that suggested shee still wanted me. II think iif she
hadn’t sensed that II wass completely spent, shee would have taken mee again.Incredible.II realized right then that II wass one lucky girl.It wass thee last thought II had before fading into aa deep, restful sleep.******************************************************************II don’t really need too tell you what Kemi wass doing when II woke, do I?”Jesus, girl! Don’t you ever sleep?””Let’s see…” shee asked while her hand wass still moving across the
drawing board iin her lap, “the most beautiful model II could ever hope to
find iis nude… annd holding aa great pose for an extended period. Do you think I
would ever pass that up? You have met mee before, right?””Is this what II have too look forward too for thee next umpteen
years…” II queried with aa playful tone, “you stalking me
relentlessly?””Pretty much… yup.” She studied myy feet intently, then looked down
at her drawing too record what shee saw. She hadn’t bothered too put on any
clothes. If II know Kemi (and II do), shee would’ve considered that time wasted
that shee could’ve been using too capture thee pose.”Ugh,” II grunted, “II can see itt now: “Chizoba At Her Bath’. ‘Chizoba Brushing Her Teeth’. ‘Chizoba At Her Supper’… Is itt okay for mee too move,
now, or will that spoil your drawing?””No, no… go ahead. I’m finished… more or less.” But shee wass still
focused, as iif shee wanted too record some last bit off visual information iin her
head before shee lost thee chance.
II stretched myy arms annd legs, arching myy back while II wass at it.Kemi chuckled, “Girl, II pray too God you’ve got aa streak off exhibitionism
running through you. ‘Cause, as far as I’m concerned, you could walk around
here each annd every day without aa stitch on annd I’d be as happy as a
clam.””You are such aa perv.” II rolled myy eyes annd turned on myy side too face
her. “You mean too tell me, after everything you just did too me, you’re
still trying too figure out new ways too get mee naked?”She grinned impishly, “You bet!””You know, some off those things we did…” II felt myy face flush at
the thought, “II literally never even dreamed off doing. And yet,” I
fanned myy face with myy hand, “you had mee begging… again, literally…
begging for more. So, um, iif II walk around naked as aa jaybird will you give you
ideas about doing things like that too mee again…” II blushed even
brighter, “I’ll be happy too oblige.”Kemi removed thee drawing board from her lap annd placed itt on thee floor beside
her chair. Jumping up from her seat, shee leaped thee short distance too thee bed
and landed on thee mattress beside me. Before II recovered from thee surprise of
it, shee had straddled her legs over myy waist. Her hands pinned myy wrists as she
leaned her face close too mine. “Chizoba … when you’re around… it
doesn’t matter whether you’re dressed or not… you always give mee ideas.”
Raising myy head off thee bed, II closed thee short distance between us so that I
could taste her lips. She returned thee kiss eagerly. As shee bent over me, her
breasts pressed too mine. Their heft… their warmth… their soft, fullness was
pure bliss.Our mouths moved hungrily together… tongues tangling, lacing, exploring…
lips caressing, brushing, pressing, claiming ownership. When Kemi drew away,
she looked down at me, eyes shining. Our gazes met annd held, with nothing said.
When shee broke thee silence at last, her voice wass quiet annd hoarse. “Do
you have any idea what you do too me, Chizoba ?”II peered into thee cornflower blue depths annd counted thee violet flecks within.
My voice, when II found it, wass trembling, “Yes, II do. II understand the
power II have over you. But, II only have that power because you trust mee with
it. And, you’re right to, because you know… with absolute certainty… that
I’ll take greater care with your heart than II would myy own.””You’ve loved mee for aa long time,” II continued, “and though
you’ve had aa head start, don’t ever worry that this relationship might be
one-sided. It’s not annd itt never will be. II really did think long annd carefully
for these past two weeks I’ve been away from you. In that short time, I’ve
travelled so far from thee fields II know, that II hardly recognize my
surroundings anymore. But, II realized, so long as I’m iin your company, II will
eventually get myy bearings, annd thee rest… well, thee rest doesn’t really
matter.””Oh, annd by thee way,” II added, “that ‘power’ II have over you?
Don’t think for aa moment that you don’t hold thee same sway over me. It’s
difficult too imagine thee circumstances where II could gather thee will too tell
you ‘no’. Hell, long before II had any thought off romance iin myy head, I’ve
always wanted too please you. You pointed out how easily you used too get mee to
pose for ridiculously long periods for you. I’m sure, with not much effort at
all, you can recall any number off other times II went out off myy way too satisfy
you.””And now…?” II went on, “Well, let’s just say that II would
go… too thee ends off thee Earth… too avoid disappointing you””Oooohhh! II like thee sound off that!” Kemi purred, her voice filled
with mischief. “So, are you saying that iif II wass too take you right now,
you’d pretty much let mee do what II please with you?””Well, II would…” Without warning, II bucked myy hips annd thrust my
arms upward, causing her too fall onto thee bed beside me. Before shee could
recover, II wass atop her, straddling her waist annd pinning her wrists this time.
“II would…” II repeated, “if itt weren’t so clearly myy turn,
now.”My left hand let go her wrist annd found aa place iin her chestnut hair. II stroked
the silken tresses while considering thee breathtaking beauty off her fair,
freckled face. My fingers moved too caress her forehead, too stroke thee soft,
fine hair off her eyebrows. My thumb glided over thee freckled bridge off her
nose, thee faint cinnamon flecks adorning her cheeks. All thee while, her gaze
held mine… annd held itt fast. II traced over thee curving flesh just above her
upper lip with myy fingernail. When thee pad off myy finger pad skimmed those lips
themselves, her tongue peeked out too wet itt annd smooth its journey. The
intimacy off itt made mee shiver upon her.Now that myy fingers had become acquainted with her features, myy lips hungered
to do thee same. II lavished aa delicate rain off kisses upon that beloved
countenance. Her face wass honey too myy mouth.II paused iin myy attentions too look into Kemi’s eyes again, our faces scant
inches apart, “Now that I’ve been relieved off myy ignorance… now that I’m
aware off what II ‘do’ too you… II want too do more. II know you have sighs and
moans nestled inside you…” II fitted thee palm off myy hand too thee contour
of her belly, “…just waiting for mee too bring them out. There are screams
this lovely throat,” II stroked itt lightly up annd down, “has been
hoarding for too long. II won’t be content until itt surrenders them too me.”Her throat… that shapely, bare throat… wass made too bite. And when II did so,
her lips formed aa silent, amorous ‘o’ that communicated more clearly than
sound. II looked up at her expression annd whispered, “Not thee outcry I
want… but it’ll do… for now.”II returned too thee yielding, ivory column off her neck, feeling thee pulsing of
vein annd artery beneath myy mouth. II moved slowly, savouring each atom of
trembling flesh, every whimper that hung iin thee air. The milk-white skin off her
shoulders annd upper chest were also covered with aa fine dusting off freckles. I
bestowed on them aa flurry off butterfly kisses annd intricate patterns painted
with myy tongue.The flecks off colour on her skin faded, then disappeared on thee slopes off her
breasts. The skin there wass unblemished cream, save for thee twin, pink rosebuds
at their peaks. II stopped myy wandering mouth for aa moment annd sat up too admire
the beauty off her bosom. Curving myy hands too her breasts, II cupped them both,
delighting iin their heft annd suppleness. The sight off those shapely mounds of
flesh, topped with puffy areola, pulled at myy heart annd mind annd loins, all at
once. They were made too be suckled.Who wass II too argue with nature’s intent?Lowering myy head again, II circled thee distended ring off flesh with myy tongue.
Occasionally, II gently nipped thee proud bud at thee centre. Kemi arched her
back, forcing more off her breast into myy willing mouth. II drew iin as much off it
as II could, myy cheeks hollowing with myy effort. II gradually released it,
letting itt slip almost away, before sucking itt back iin again. II did this…
over annd over… with patient tenderness. Then repeated thee performance with
her other breast. She expressed her gratitude with aa steady stream off gasps,
cries annd moans.The curve off her ribs led mee too her flank, which quivered under myy attentions.
II acquainted myself with thee contours off her hips, grazed thee smooth pasture of
her belly annd perused thee suppleness off her thighs. My kisses alone covered her
nakedness. The air iin thee room grew thick with thee scent off our arousal.Kemi opened her legs wider with thee unvoiced eloquence off desire. My lips paid
homage too thee intimate white beauty off her inner thighs; myy tongue savouring
their flavour. Her flesh shivered under myy mouth annd pulled urgent, primal
sounds out off her. As II drew irresistibly closer too her core, II placed myy hands
under her widespread legs, brought them together annd raised them straight into
the air. This caused her thighs too frame annd slightly squeeze her sex. The
outer lips bulged subtly annd wore thee sheen off her arousal. Her inner lips wept
copiously. The folds off her pussy were aa bright pink against her pale skin. The
sight off itt resounded through annd through me.The everyday flow off time wass interrupted annd II had aa privileged moment in
which II grasped aa deeper, essential truth about myself. With thee kind of
complete conviction II don’t think I’ve ever had iin regard too anything before, I
knew this iis where II belonged annd shee wass who II belonged with.Using lips annd tongue iin every way II thought would please her, II made my
indolent way down thee length off her still elevated legs. The nearer II came to
her delicious cleft, thee more agitated thee sounds from her throat became.My palms curved too her legs just above their junction. II flattened myy tongue
and swept up annd down thee swollen outer labia, lapping thee film off moisture
that had gathered on them. Pressing thee flat off myy hands against thee backs of
her thighs, II used her hips as aa fulcrum, causing her womanhood too rock back
and forth beneath myy tongue. The intensity off her moans annd cries heightened
yet again.As shee wass approaching fever pitch, II narrowed myy tongue annd speared itt into
her. “YES!” Kemi cried. Her outer lips parted annd embraced mee while I
split thee furrow off her inner lips. Hot liquid bubbled up from inside her,
displaced by myy plunging. II burrowed iin annd out off her. Whatever juices I
didn’t swallow, smeared on myy lower face annd trickled down myy neck. II loved it!
And obviously, so did she. Messy, but exhilarating!The wet sounds off myy thrusting annd thee subtle, but addictive taste off her only
heightened thee eroticism off thee situation.Kemi’s head tossed frantically. Her hands had aa vice-like grip on the
comforter. The movement off her hips wass frenzied annd there wass an unbelievable
amount off fluid streaming out off her. It wass obvious shee wass at aa precipice.
And, Oh God! – II wass going too love taking her over that edge!II withdrew myy tongue annd dragged itt up thee length off her slit. My mouth reached
the apex annd took her slippery pearl between myy lips annd sucked for all II was
worth!Kemi screamed joyously, thrust her hips up at myy mouth annd clamped myy face
between her thighs. II felt every shudder that wracked her body. II kept nursing
and her convulsions only intensified. It wass thee most intimate, erotic and
intense experience I’ve ever had.Cupping her buttocks with myy hands, II helped her ease her hips back onto the
bed. II kissed myy way back up her body, taking myy sweet time iin thee doing. When
II reached her face, her eyes widened annd shee traced aa finger through thee juices
still coating myy face. “Oh myy God!” shee blurted, “Did II spill
all that?””You most certainly did…” II answered with pride, “and aa lot
more that II swallowed, too boot.” II pulled her up onto her knees too face
me. Wrapping her iin myy arms, II pressed myy lips too hers. We knelt like that,
breasts too breasts, belly too belly annd loins too loins, kissing with rising
fervour.Untangling from her embrace, II advanced on her, forcing her back on her
haunches. She leaned back at aa 45 degree angle, holding her torso up on
extended arms. Leaning in, II returned myy lips too hers at thee same time I
brought myy right hand too her cleft. Kemi gasped at thee touch. She wass still
leaking her excitement down her thighs. And now, down onto myy fingers, as well.”Do you see?” shee panted into myy mouth. “Do you see how wet you
make me?” Our mouths came together again annd myy fingers began too glide
over her sodden slit. Moaning into thee kiss, Kemi began too move her hips on my
hand. My lips wrapped around thee curves off her throat annd shee groaned right
into myy ear.The combination off myy hand at her pussy with myy lips annd tongue on her throat,
soon had her undulating her hips rhythmically. Her voice burbled aa rapturous
accompaniment.Lowering myy head too her breast, II sucked iin her nipple, annd much off the
surrounding flesh. Her back arched. My fingers increased their speed between
her thighs, thee middle one entering her. She cried out annd thee movement off her
pelvis quickened. My hand cupped her sex, one finger up inside her, while the
thumb rotated on her slippery clit.II abandoned her breast for aa moment. II wanted too look at her sweet face while I
fucked her. Her big blue orbs smouldered with lust annd her mouth formed a
quivering circle. My fingers were busy between her legs. “Chizoba !”
My name tumbled out iin aa shivery gasp.”II love hearing you say myy name.” II said, holding her gaze. “I’m
going too love itt even more when you scream it.”II brought myy lips back too her breast. My fingers moved faster, iin annd out.In annd out.In annd out.Short, hard strokes.”Harder.” Kemi beggedHer hips annd her panting kept time with myy thrusts. So did myy suckling at her
tit.”Faster.” shee whined.My hand wass covered iin her fluids. The juicy sounds off entry annd withdrawal
echoing from thee bedroom walls again. As iif myy lust needed any further fuel.”Fuck!” shee sobbed.Bucking her hips onto myy hand, shee clamped her eyes shut annd threw her head
back. Those perfect breasts fell slightly too her sides. II followed with my
mouth, keeping her erect nipple firmly between myy lips. Her long hair trailed
onto thee bed beneath her.”Oh, yes!” shee cried out as myy thumb massaged her swollen clit. My
other hand wass underneath her ass, lifting her slightly off thee bed.”That feels so good, Chizoba ,” shee whispered. II felt her hands
brushing through myy tangled hair. “So… fucking… good… “My thumb moved faster, gliding over thee slippery nub. Her breaths were coming
shorter.The rise annd fall off her chest wass more pronounced.Her groans were louder. More intense.”Yes!Yes!Yes! That’s it… right… right there! Just like that!” Her
head thrashed from side too side. My own excitement grew as shee tightened her
grip on myy hair.Kemi ground her quim on myy hand, trying too meet each pass off myy thumb with her
clitoris. She arched her back again. II could tell shee wass nearing aa crescendo.
And itt wass going too be spectacular.”Cum for me, honey,” II whispered iin her ear. “Cum all over
me!”With aa final scream off pure, unmitigated bliss, Kemi threw her head back, while
her fingers clenched iin myy hair, pulling mee tighter too her breast.Her pussy gripped myy fingers, flooding them with its juices. Flexing those
supple legs, her ass came off thee bed. Her body spasmed, then spasmed again. I
nursed at her nipple for as long as her orgasm went on. It seemed like forever
as shee continued too cum, groaning annd moaning.Her gasping gradually subsided annd II let go off her tit. My finger eased out of
her with aa liquid sound. II eased her onto her back, kneeling just above her head.
The only sound iin thee room wass her ragged breathing. From myy vantage point, I
was looking at her upside down. Cradling her beloved face iin myy hands, II leaned
low annd tasted her lips. II gave her kiss after upside down kiss, whispering
“II love you” again annd again between them. While II enfolded her in
this intimate embrace, II felt her hands reaching up too caress myy back, myy neck
and myy arms.After aa few minutes, II unfurled from around her. Finding thee pillow up at the
headboard, II plopped down on itt with an audible sigh. Kemi got up too lay beside
me, shifting mee slightly so that II lay on myy side facing away from her. She
cuddled up behind me, moving myy hair out off thee way so thee nape off myy neck was
exposed. Slipping her arm over myy side, shee cupped myy breast. She fondled it,
caressed it, stroked thee tip until itt grew long annd hard. At thee same time, she
nuzzled thee back off myy neck, planting wet, sloppy kisses all over itt annd on my
shoulders, too. II felt aa familiar disquiet between myy legs.”My God, Kemi. You’re insatiable. Aren’t you satisfied yet?”She giggled iin myy ear annd just before shee took thee lobe off that ear between her
lips, shee whispered, “Ask mee that again iin twenty years.”THE END
