Chapter 86: Surprises (MFfg, cons, rom, no sex)
At around seven pm, after resting some, Monaavi peeked
in
the door with a little girl hello. Surprised, we sat up and
once she was inside and seated, we asked her why she was back.
"Did you forget?" She asked with a wry smile,
"I'm the food
supply! What's she gonna eat tonight if I'm not here: baby formula?"
"How'd you get here?" Priya asked.
"Dad brought me in." Monaavi informed us,
"I asked the
nurse on the way out and with the authorization on file, I
can stay with Priya and Malina to nurse Malina on demand."
Monaavi added with a giggle as she grasped her breasts,
"Gosh, those herbs and drugs sure do the trick, I'm making
enough milk to feed the entire nursery!" Just look at my
shirt! It's embarrassing 'cause everybody knows what it's from!"
"Where's your spots?" I teased, "I
thought milk cows had
black and white spots."
"Look buster," she retorted, "Looks like
you're gonna be
regressing back to infancy because that little stomach of
hers can't hold it all and I'm not walking around with
flaming hot, hard boobs all the time: you wouldn't believe
how painful it is. So brush up on your technique you big
baby. Besides, you've gotta take care of Leeya too!"
"Geez," I chuckled as I shook my head,
"If that's the case,
why'd I spend seven hundred dollars on two breast pumps?"
"Nobody said kids were cheap," Priya giggled.
"Neither are their mothers," I added.
Twenty minutes later while we were talking, Malina woke
hungry. Monaavi tried to help the baby latch onto Priya's
breast, but to no avail. Malina was hungry and frustrated
and Priya was getting agitated when Monaavi told her, "Calm
down! She can sense your mood. Newborns have a sixth sense
and are highly sensitive to voice and mood changes. Here,
give her to me."
"Wuuu-aaayy" Malina cried red-faced with her
fists clinched
and shaking.
"There, there now princess," Monaavi cooed as
she undid her
nursing bra, "Here, here's what you're crying for."
Monaavi held her breast in her hand and rubbed her
nipple
across the screaming infant's lips. Malina was so agitated
at first she didn't sense the nipple at her mouth. When it
registered, she shook her head back and forth several times
quickly as she hungrily latched on for dear life and began
slurping loudly until she calmed down.
Monaavi pulled back a little with an "Ouch! She's
worse
than the pump!"
Joking I quipped, "Yeah, she's like her
Daddy."
Priya and Monaavi laughed and Monaavi replied,
"Yeah, I
remember that night. I thought you were gonna take my
nipple off it hurt so much!"
Looking down at her charge, Monaavi began to rock her
and
cooed, "That's better princess. Now you've got what you
want, don't you? Whew! Now she's sucking comfortably."
After ten minutes Monaavi put Malina to her other breast
and we continued talking. I was pretty much a silent
participant as Priya and Monaavi exchanged birthing
feelings, pains and joys. After about another ten minutes
or so, Malina was drooling with her mouth open and fast asleep.
Monaavi threw a receiving blanket on her shoulder, flipped
her up on her shoulder and burped Malina as we talked with
both breasts hanging out in the breeze. A nurse came in and
saw Monaavi's ripe "C" cup full breasts and said she'd
bring back a pump for Monaavi to use.
Monaavi handed me my sleeping child and ordered,
"Here,
make yourself useful."
She stood, put herself together and helped Priya start
using the pump first saying, "You're not gonna have much,
just some colostrum but the baby really needs it. I don't
have any, just milk. Pump: let's see if we can get your
breasts to let down."
"It's no use," Priya whined.
"Stop acting like a child Priya!" Monaavi
scolded,
"ANYTHING you can give her is better than mine. Your milk
is special: it's exactly what she needs right now. Stop
feeling sorry for yourself and think of your child. Now
pump!"
Monaavi set the machine to pump slowly and without too
much
suction. After a minute, little drops started to fall into the bottle.
"See?" Monaavi encouraged, "She NEEDS
this! At her next
feeding, we'll give this to her before the milk. It'll
protect her from illness: it's got all your antibodies in it."
Priya was encouraged to see the bottom of the bottle
slowly
become covered with her gift. She calmly wept and said to
Monaavi, "Thank you Monaavi, I would have given up."
"Breastfeeding," Monaavi advised her,
"Can be a very
difficult and frustrating thing, especially in the
beginning. It takes patience and some perseverance to get
started. You MAY be able to give her something, and
anything is better than nothing, even with Leeya and I
helping out. The more you can give her the healthier she'll
be. It'll help shrink your uterus also and you'll recover
more quickly."
"Now," Monaavi added, "You're gonna pump
every time Malina
wakes to feed. After I give her what you've pumped, I'll
feed while you pump, got it?"
"Yes Mother," Priya quipped,
"No, you're the mother," Monaavi quipped back,
"I'm just
the cow."
"Sean," Priya said turning to me as she
pumped, "Why don't
you go home and come back in the morning, there's no use in
you staying all night, I have Monaavi here to help me. You
can stay of you want, I just think it would be easier on all of us."
"You sure?" I asked.
I guess I was pouting inside like a little kid about being
sent home but she was right, I'd probably just be in the
way. I remembered back when Mom slapped me and thought,
"This is one of those times when you gotta trust those you love."
"Ok," I replied, "Want me to bring you
cows anything from
home?"
"Yeah," Monaavi chuckled, "A clean blouse
and nursing bra.
And grab me a clean veil while you're at it."
"Priya?" I added, "Need anything?"
"A new pussy," Priya jokingly giggled,
"This one hurts."
Monaavi and I startled the baby with our outburst of
laughter. Just then the nurse came in to check on how the
pumping was going. I asked her, "When will they let Mom and
baby go home?"
"If not tomorrow afternoon," the nurse
answered, "Then
Sunday morning. I think the pediatrician will give the baby
her discharge physical sometime tomorrow after her hearing
test and shots."
After the nurse made her observations, she left. I told
them I'd arrive about nine am with the mindset of bringing
them home tomorrow. I kissed my wives and newborn daughter
goodnight and headed for home.
At home, I found out, by a phone call from Priya that
night, what happened next…
Knock knock.
"Come in," Priya answered.
"Hi," Miko asked, "I'm not intruding am
I?"
"Oh no," Priya replied, "Come in, have a
seat. What brings
you here, I thought you were a delivery nurse?"
"I am," Miko confirmed, "My shift starts
in about an hour
and I just wanted to see how you were doing and…"
"And?" Monaavi asked with a wry grin.
"Well," Miko halted, "I was curious and I
wanted to talk to
you about…"
Having an inkling as to where this conversation was
headed,
Priya finished Miko's sentence with, "You wanted to know
more about our lifestyle, right?"
Miko blushed with a shy smile, looked down and nodded silently.
Monaavi and Priya gave each other a curious smile.
Monaavi
craned her head down and to the side to look at Miko as she
looked at her lap and asked, "Why are you interested?"
"Well…" Miko halted again, "I was, I mean
I'm ah, oh shoot!
This is so hard! I had everything worked out in my mind
before I got here and now I'm just a mish-mash of nerves."
Miko started to rise to leave saying, "I'd better
go. This
was a stupid, crazy thing to do and now I've made a fool of
myself."
"No wait!" Monaavi said as she pulled her back
to her seat,
"You're here, so let's talk."
Priya smiled at Monaavi and Priya pressed further,
"I think
we get the picture. If you're too shy to start, just nod if
we hit the nail on the head, OK?"
Miko, still blushing nodded.
"Let's start first by being mature women,"
Monaavi said,
"Please look at us. If you are really interested in talking
about this and some of the feelings you're having, you need
to be honest and discuss it maturely, don't you agree?"
With a composing sigh, Miko lifted her head, looked at
Priya and Monaavi and answered, "You're right. But it's
hard for me to come right out and say what I really want to say."
"Well," Priya said as she smiled at her
reassuringly,
"Let's start with the obvious question: you're very
attracted to Sean, right?"
Miko blushed profusely and nodded her answer and finally
blurted out, "I feel ashamed to come in here and admit this
but yes, I am. Very."
"But why reveal this now," Monaavi countered,
"I mean, what
is it you're REALLY interested in: besides a physical
attraction to our husband? You could have kept silent and
we'd be gone in a day or two."
"Your lifestyle," Miko replied, "I was
just wondering if…"
"If there might be room in our family for one more
wife?"
Priya finished for her, "Is this where you'd like this
discussion to lead?"
Miko started to silently cry and nodded yes.
"Why us?" Priya asked, "Why would you
want to join a family
relationship like ours? You're a very pretty woman, surely
you can find a man who'd love only you completely."
Miko was going to answer but waited when Monaavi rose,
went
to the bathroom and returned with a warm facecloth for
Miko. Wiping her face, Miko revealed that she grew up in a
typically traditional Asian family where affection and love
was more tacitly understood than openly expressed. As a
result, she and her sister were never very close; her
relationship with her mother was strained because of her
mother's cultural reluctance to discuss intimate issues
with her as she got older, even about puberty issues, and
her father held his children at arms length. Even though
she knew she was loved, there were no open expressions of
affection.
When she finished college and began working, she was
swept
off her feet, became involved with an intern and they had
an intimate relationship for a three months, after which he
dumped her for another intern five years ago, saying she
needed more than he was willing to give and she's been
celibate ever since. Miko revealed that her heart was so
wounded by the break-up that she hasn't had the courage to
try again.
Monaavi said crassly, "Bastards! I've seen it a
hundred
times! A girl gives her innocence and heart to a guy and he
uses her until he wants someone different and leaves her:
broken and hurt."
"My father has disowned me," Miko tearfully
revealed, "He
said I've dishonored my family and I'm a whore."
"I have no support system to fall back on,"
Miko added, "My
mother and sister follow my father. My friends here are
pretty much insensitive, telling me to get over it and move
on. I just feel so vulnerable and hurt, I don't talk about
my personal life any more."
"But why us?" Priya asked again, "What is
it about our
relationship that appeals enough to you to even approach
us? I mean, why do you think that you'd even WANT to be in
a relationship like ours?"
"Love," Miko said plainly, "I see the
love all of you have
for Sean and he expresses back to his wives, all of the
selfless love you have and express for him and each other.
I saw it when Monaavi delivered years ago and the thought
has never left my mind. It's like you all support, love and
care for each other in a way that's so endearing, people
notice that: at least I did. This feeling I have inside,
what I saw again today in the delivery room, has given me
the hope that for the first time in five years, I might be
able to find love again. The younger one, what's her name
Leeya?"
"Uh huh," Monaavi nodded.
"She gave it away, for me at least" Miko
revealed, "The way
she looks at Sean is with pure, unadulterated love. I
almost burst into tears watching her because I burn so
deeply inside to love someone like that. And when she was
feeding the baby yesterday, just what she went through to
do such a selfless thing is very heart moving. I have so
much love to give and no one to share it with and I feel I
could give it to all of you safely, if given a chance. I
know your situation is unique, but it's a loving one: of
that I'm certain."
Miko was now openly crying and Monaavi enfolded her in
her
arms, rocking her and trying to calm her down. Once Miko
was somewhat composed, Monaavi released her and held her
hand. Miko wiped her face again and said with broken
confidence, "Crazy isn't it? I mean it was stupid and
presumptuous to even think I could expect any of you to
consider it. I mean, a stranger walks in and says, "Hey,
let me be one of your wives!""
"Look Miko," Priya said, "You're a very
observant,
intelligent person and have pretty much deduced everything.
What you DON'T know is the mechanics. Yes, we're all as
close as a heartbeat and as such, we discuss and consider
everything that affects our family together. There is a
hierarchy to our family structure that's strictly followed.
I am Sean's first wife and as such, am the "family
matriarch" so to speak and Leeya and Monaavi defer to me.
Leeya, although the youngest, is second wife and Monaavi
the oldest, is third wife and she defers to Leeya. We have
a very unique sisterhood that binds our children and us by
marriage and by blood. My children are theirs and theirs
are mine and we share an intimate relationship with the
same man: in essence, we are all married to each other."
"When did all of you marry?" Miko asked,
"I mean, at what ages?"
"You need to understand a few things," Priya
qualified, "We
are Muslim and from India; two totally different cultures
than you're used to. Those two facts made it possible for
Leeya and I to marry as very young girls in a polygamist
relationship; me at eleven, Leeya at five and Monaavi at
twenty-three. Now, I'm seventeen, Leeya's eleven and
Monaavi is twenty-nine. How old are you?"
"Leeya married Sean when she was FIVE? Gosh! Oh
sorry, I'm
twenty-six," Miko answered, "But I'm a Christian: a Baptist."
"Yes, Priya revealed, "Leeya's a special person.
She's like
a thirty year-old woman in the body of a child. Sean's
parents are Baptist too."
"Let me ask you a point blank question,"
Monaavi said, "Do
you think you're in love with Sean?"
"No, I'm not in love with him but I have a very
strong
attraction to him," Miko admitted, "But I know in my heart
that if I let myself go, I could be."
"Why could you let yourself go with him?"
Priya asked.
"Because," Miko replied, "I can see he
has a great capacity
to love and he's a very sensitive person, especially with
his wives and children. I would be totally devoted and
committed to him and all of you, if I had the chance."
"If you don't mind my asking, are you Japanese or
Chinese?"
Monaavi asked.
"I'm Japanese," Miko answered, "My full
name is Miko Ozawa.
I was born and raised in Osaka, came here with my father
and have been here since starting high school. I'm now an
American citizen."
"I have to leave in a few minutes, my shift will
start
soon," Miko said as she looked at her watch.
"What," Priya asked pointedly, "Do you
want to do now? By
that I mean, what did you hope to accomplish by coming here
tonight?"
"To explore the possibility," Miko answered,
"And see if we
could explore this further. I don't know if it's even
possible, I just thought that if I really was serious about
this, that I'd only get an answer if I spoke up and
approached you with my interest."
Monaavi reached in her purse and withdrew her palm pilot
and asked Miko, "Give me all your personal information:
your cell number, home and work numbers and either Sean,
Priya or I will give you a call. What time does your shift end?"
"I'm supposed to get off at eight-thirty tomorrow
morning,"
Miko replied, "But that's if I'm not in the middle of a delivery."
After entering Miko's information into her Palm, Monaavi
held her for several minutes and Priya encouraged her by
saying, "It took a lot of courage for you to come in here
and speak your heart. Before you leave, I'll tell you what
we are going to do. First, I'll call Sean and give him a
detailed, word-for-word account of our conversation and
find out how he feels. When I get home, we'll discuss this
in further detail as a family. I can't promise you anything
except that if we consider this, and I do mean IF, we'll
probably have you out to our home to spend some time with
us, just to get to know each other better. That's about all
I can say at this point. If, for whatever reason, anyone in
the family votes no, then that's the end of it, understand?"
"I understand," Miko responded, "I can't
ask for more than
that. My suspicions about all of you were right. I knew
that you'd be understanding and help me express what has
been so painfully difficult for me to say, without
judgment. I'd better go, I've got pre-shift briefing."
"If you can," Priya said in closing,
"Come by in the
morning after you get off, OK?"
"Ok," Miko said shyly with a smile, "I'll
do that."
Monaavi rose with Miko, and Priya said as Miko turned to
leave, "Miko?"
"Yes?" Miko answered.
"Don't worry, Sweetie," Priya reassured with a
smile, "If
it's meant to be, it will come to pass, do you believe that?"
"I do," Miko said with a soft smile,
"Thank you for talking
with me. I'll see you in the morning. Goodnight and again,
congratulations on the birth of your daughter, Priya.
Goodnight Monaavi."
"Sayonara Miko," Priya said as she smiled and
bowed her
head.
"Domo arigato, sayonara," Miko replied with a
reverent bow
and a Mona Lisa smile.
Monaavi walked Miko to the door and she left silently.
Monaavi came back, sat down with her hands on her knees and
said with raised eyebrows, "Well, isn't the world full of surprises?"
Priya looked down studiously in silence for a moment,
then
looked up and said, "I suspected we'd hear from her."
"Why?" Monaavi asked surprised, "How?
How'd you know she'd
be interested in us?"
"She asked to be assigned to me and also by the way
she
reacted to Leeya," Priya revealed, "She was TOO accepting.
Her gesture of overlooking Leeya nursing was her way of
saying she was interested, that our secret was safe with
her, giving her the opening she needed to approach us."
"Gosh," Monaavi replied, "I was so caught
up with the baby
I didn't pick up on it."
"How do you feel, Monaavi?" Priya asked
pointedly.
"She's such a sweet girl," Monaavi observed,
"And she acts
a lot like I did when I was struggling with my feelings.
She's quiet, not like American women, and she's very
sensitive. She must already have the mindset to be a part
of a relationship like ours, otherwise she wouldn't have
even approached us. I think she believes that if this could
come to pass, she'd gain not only a loving husband but also
a loving support system to replace her family. I think she
could fit in. I know that I could come to love her. I just
worry about her not being Muslim: could she accept our life
and habits? Even though she's a Christian, she'd have to
wear a veil and adhere to our customs. I think Leeya would
be able to accept her, what do YOU think?"
"I worry about a couple of things," Priya
pointed out,
"Leeya might not be as accepting as you think. Miko is
twenty-six and I'm sure she wants to have a child. Leeya's
only eleven: who do you think would be next to get pregnant
if Miko joined us? That could be a real sore spot with
Leeya, to sit back and watch the new wife bear Sean's next
child. On top of that, Miko is a very pretty woman
physically: she's tiny, small figured and exotically
sensual looking. Leeya's also sensitive about her own
physical attractiveness."
"Oops," Monaavi replied, "THAT didn't
occur to me. My
brains must be in my tits lately."
"Another thing," Priya added, "If you
remember, Sean said
he wouldn't seek another wife. I don't know how receptive
Sean would be to her overture. If it happened, it would
probably have to be at our urging and for THAT, we'd need
Leeya's approval. I think Miko would have to give Leeya
assurance that she'd wait until after Leeya had her first
child to get pregnant herself. I agree that Miko has the
temperament and probably the mindset to be one of us and
she'd make a nice addition to our family, but I think Sean
would need a nudge from us. If we got Leeya on board, the
next hurdle would be convincing Sean to get to know her."
Thinking out loud, Priya continued, "Having four
wives
would be pushing things, I mean as far as intimacy goes,
I'm not sure how things would work. If we were to start
with four wives and one family night, that's five days
leaving two days open. That means that two of us would get
a second night apiece and two sitting out in rotation: got
this could get extremely confusing!"
"Well," Monaavi asked Priya, "What do we
do now?"
"The only thing we CAN do," Priya responded,
"Call Sean."
Monaavi handed Priya her cell. Priya flipped open the
phone, looked at Monaavi, sighed and hit the speed dial.
"Hello Mommy! Did I tell you how much I love
you?" I said
as I answered the call.
"Hi Sweetheart, and I love you so much more!"
Priya
answered, "Is Leeya still up?"
"Yeah, Leeya's pumping right now as we speak."
I replied,
"What's up?"
"When she's finished, the two of you go to the
study and
call me back. It's private Sean, OK?"
"What is it Priya?" I asked concerned.
"I'll tell you, just wait and call me when Leeya's
finished
OK?"
"OK, if you say so," I replied resigned,
"I'll call you in
about ten minutes. Love you."
"Love you more," Priya answered,
"Bye" Click.
About fifteen minutes later, I called Priya back on
Monaavi's cell from the study. Leeya and I sat in
anticipation as I put the phone on speaker and heard the
phone ringing.
Priya picked up on the third ring with "Hi Sweetie,
Leeya
finished?"
"Yeah I'm done," Leeya answered.
"Are you both sitting down," Priya asked.
"Come on Priya," I asked impatiently,
"What's going on?"
"Alright, here goes," Priya began, "Miko
stopped in for a
while after you left."
"She did?" I asked, "What, just to say hi
or was there more
to it than that?"
"How'd you guess?" Priya asked in return surprised.
"Because of her earlier curiosity that's why,"
I answered
suspiciously, "Is that it?"
"Uh huh," Priya confirmed, "She revealed
that she's had the
hots for you since Monaavi delivered and is VERY curious
about our familial arrangement."
"I see," I replied a little stunned, "And
I suppose she
wants to know if our family is open to expansion, is that it?"
"Pretty much," Priya confirmed, "She was
very emotional and
we pretty much had to pull it out of her because of her
shyness and apprehension. Monaavi and I believe what she
feels is genuine and she's hopeful that we might want to
get to know her and give her a chance to get to know us.
She's not expecting anything right now, just the chance for
things to possibly happen."
Priya went into detail about all the facts Miko had
revealed about herself and her family and the discussion
she and Monaavi had with Miko.
I asked Leeya, "How do YOU feel about this, about
her?"
"I like her," Leeya answered, "And she
allowed me to feed
Malina even though it was against the rules. She didn't
judge me because I was married and eleven either. Does she
hope that she can marry Sean?"
"Hopefully," Priya confirmed, "That and I
think she likes
the loving sisterhood we share and would like to be a part
of that.
"And I guess she wants a baby too, right?"
Leeya asked.
"I don't know Leeya," Priya admitted, "We
didn't even
discuss having kids. She just wants the opportunity to see
if we can be a match."
"We've been a family for so long," Leeya said,
"That I
never thought about another sister, I just worry that my
waiting time to be a mother will be even harder to bear if
I see someone else have Sean's next child: it's MY turn!
It's my right!"
"Leeya," Priya asked, "If Miko was to
become one of us, and
she gave you the assurance that you'd be the next mother in
the family, is that your only reservation about her, or is
there something else?"
"No," Leeya answered, "If she deferred to
me, my right is
respected, and my turn will be next, I think I could accept
her as a sister. She seems gentle, caring and considerate
but I'd have to get to know her better to be certain."
"Sean," Priya asked tentatively, "And
you. How do you feel
about possibly marrying her and including her in our family?"
"I don't know Priya," I responded honestly,
"She seems to
be our type but I never considered taking another wife. Do
you and Monaavi want to pursue this?"
"Yes," Priya answered, "We do. Monaavi
and I believe that
she would add, not take away from our family, and she said
she'd be totally committed and devoted to you and her
sister wives. What would it hurt Sean to get to know her
and let her see how we live?"
"It's just a shock Priya," I answered,
"We just had a child
today and now, I get a call about possibly gaining a wife:
a little much don't you think?"
"It seems, Priya noted, "That all your wives
are in
agreement, under certain circumstances, to proceed. Think
about it with an open mind and decide. You know we're with
you either way."
Just then, we heard Malina wake and cry to be fed.
"Leeya?"
we heard Monaavi holler jokingly, "Get your little titties
over here and feed this baby!"
"I'm dry," Leeya confessed, "I just
finished pumping. I got
an ounce and a half."
"Good girl!" Monaavi complimented, "Keep
up the good work!"
"Priya?" I asked, "Do you really believe
this could be a good thing?"
"She's gotta lot of love to give, Sean," Priya
replied,
"And she's been hurt really bad. She's twenty-six and not a
virgin; her family had disowned her as a whore because
she's had premarital sex. If we accepted her, she'd give us
her heart Sean."
"I guess I'm not gonna get any peace until I cave
right," I
said jokingly, "I know, you girls are just trying to kill
me and collect the insurance right?"
"Of course not, silly," Priya giggled,
"You forget, we've
got a blank check: that's worth a lot more than the insurance!"
"Yeah right," I quipped, "You always was
the smart one!"
"Look at the bright side," Priya replied,
"Your father
would be ecstatic: she's legal, your dance card would be
filled and your harem complete!"
"Yeah," I chided, "And my dick will
probably fall off."
"Never happen," Priya assured, "Besides,
you've still got
to knock up the tiny harlot yet."
"Yeah," Leeya agreed, "Make me pregnant
before it falls off!"
"Selfish harlot!" I retorted.
"Horny letch," she quipped back.
"Alright Priya," I resigned, "Tell her
we'll invite her
over once you're home and settled, OK?"
"Thank you, Sean," Priya answered, "But
if you get here at
eight, you can tell her yourself: she's stopping in after
her shift. You won't be disappointed, I promise."
"Goodnight Mommy, goodnight Cow," I said in
closing, "I
love you both!"
"We love you more, bye now (moo in the
background)," Priya
replied. Click.
"Well snot," I said to Leeya after hanging up,
"Tell me
exactly what you're thinking. How do you feel about all this?"
Leeya climbed on my lap and laid her head on my
shoulder,
then answered quietly, "Like I said, my heart couldn't bear
seeing someone new bear you a child. If Monaavi or Priya
get pregnant in the next couple of years, that's one thing,
but someone new, I just couldn't take it. As a person, I
think Miko is a gentle, kind and caring person. I kinda get
the same feeling about her I had when I first met Monaavi
but like I said, I gotta get to know her better to be sure."
"So," I said wanting to make sure, "If
she and I spent time
together and we did eventually marry, you wouldn't have a
problem with that?"
"No," Leeya replied as she shook her head
against my
shoulder, "Not as long as my rights as your wife are
respected and deferred to, and you keep your promise to me."
"No matter what happens," I assured her as I
kissed her
neck, "My promise will never be broken. I'd never do that to
you."
"What other observations do you have?" I
asked.
"She's very pretty," Leeya noted with a
giggle, "And she's
tiny: just like you like your women. I think if you gave
her a closer look, she'd get your letch up."
I playfully swatted her thigh and quipped, "You're
a very
naughty girl!"
"Yeah," she giggled, "But you made me
that way."
"I confess," I conceded, " I'm a horny
letch."
"Like Priya said," Leeya replied, "What
can it hurt to see
how it goes?"
"None I guess," I answered, "Let's get
some sleep, I've
gotta be at the hospital by eight so we'll have to rise
early and say prayers."
"Ok" Leeya answered, "But you gotta seal
your promise and
lick my fuzzy pussy and give me a good gasm, deal?"
"Deal!" I said with a slap on her butt.
As we were climbing the stairs I told her, "But
you're
gonna have to de-fuzz that little clam soon."
"Alright," She conceded, "Just a few
hairs more, OK?"
"Ok." I replied.
Needless to say, I ate her fuzzy pussy REAL good and
gave
her three good gasms! In return, Leeya gave me an excellent
"almost" deepthroat blowjob: a fair exchange I'd say.
Leeya and I rose at five-thirty, showered, said prayers
and
after finishing breakfast I was ready to leave at seven. I
valet parked at the hospital and arrived at Priya's room at
seven-forty.
Monaavi had just finished feeding Malina when I arrived
and
Priya was eating breakfast. She made an ugly face and
remarked, "Boy, Daddy was right, this stuff tastes terrible!"
"I think the idea is," I replied, "For
you to get better
and get outta here."
"Yeah," Monaavi put in with a chuckle,
"If they don't kill
ya first."
The nurse came in and took Priya's vitals telling her
the
doctor would be in to see her between nine and ten. She
also said that she and Malina would probably be able to go
home today, which was good news. With my arrival, Monaavi
changed her blouse and veil, then went upstairs to the
cafeteria to get something to eat.
Monaavi returned about eight and had just sat to eat
when
there was a knock on the door. Priya responded with, "Come in."
We heard from the door, "Priya, it's me, Miko. May
I come in?"
"Yes Miko," Priya answered.
Miko entered the door saying "Thank yo----"
She halted in mid-word when she saw me and stuttered,
"I-I-
I'll come back."
"It's OK, come in Miko," I said softly with a
smile.
Miko entered passively with shoulders forward and head
down
submissively. I patted the couch next to me and she
demurely smiled, nodded and moved to sit down with about
two feet between us.
Being overly polite, Miko said, "I can come back
later if
it's more convenient."
Turning a little to face her, I replied, "Don't be
frightened, I won't bite you."
Priya giggled and teased, "Not yet at least."
Monaavi about choked on her eggs and Miko blushed a
bright
pink.
Shaking my head I tried to aleve Miko's embarrassment by
saying, "Excuse her please, she's delirious from childbirth
and you'll find that each of my wives has a naughty streak
in them."
Miko respectfully nodded with a slight bow.
Leaning on my elbows I said, "Look Miko, this isn't
easy
for any of us so I'll just plow ahead. If I offend you or
you want to say something, just butt in, OK?"
"Yes sir," she replied.
"It's Sean. No sir stuff, OK?" I said with a
smile, "If
we're going to get to know each other, we do it as equals.
If you have something to say or ask, speak up, fair
enough?"
"Fair enough," she answered.
I started by saying, "Priya told me in detail about
your
visit last might (Miko blushes) but I want to hear from you
exactly what you hope will come out of your meeting last
night."
Miko halted and asked, "Didn't she tell you?"
"She told me," I replied, "But I want to
hear it from you.
If this is what you think you want, if this is a lifestyle
you believe you'd like to participate in, then you
shouldn't be shy about expressing what you want."
Miko covered her mouth with her hand to hide her
quivering
lip and started to cry. I handed her my hanky and she
covered her face. With a big sniffle, she composed herself
and looked at me like a frightened bird. She swallowed hard
and began with, "It's very hard for me to express my
private feelings because growing up I was never really
taught how."
Miko wiped her eyes and continued, "I'm embarrassed
to say
what makes this so much more difficult is the fact that I
am so attracted to you."
"There," I said with a soft smile, "That
didn't kill you to
say, did it? I didn't jump your bones (she giggles) or the
sky didn't fall, did it?"
"No Sean," she blushed, "It didn't."
"Take your time," I encouraged, "And tell
me what you told
Priya and Monaavi last night. I know what it means to be
frightened and afraid of rejection."
"How could you?" Miko asked, shaking her head
in disbelief,
"You're so handsome, you could have any woman you want."
"Ask Priya," I chuckled, "I was a
babbling idiot when I
proposed to Monaavi I was so afraid she would reject me."
"REALLY?" she asked in disbelief.
"Really!" Priya giggled, "He wasn't only
an idiot, he was a
total retard!"
"Ouch!" I said.
"I thought it was cute," Monaavi came to my
rescue.
"Now," I said returning to the topic at hand,
"Just tell me."
Miko got such a pained look on her face and broke down
sobbing and cried, "He took my innocence and threw me away
like I was a tramp! I so want to tell you but I'm scared to
death that because you know I'm not a virgin, you'll turn me away!"
I looked at Priya then Monaavi and they were both nodded
for me to console her so I slid over and enfolded her in my
arms saying, "Look Miko, you're still judging yourself by
your father's values. You made a mistake: a very painful
and tragic mistake but you're still worth loving and you're
not a tramp or a whore or whatever euphemism you choose to
use. Your not being a virgin doesn't mean a thing to me.
What matters most to me, and my wives, is who you are now
and what you can give us in return for accepting you. Now,
like I said before, we're equals."
I broke the hug and looked her in the eyes and said,
"My
mother told me that the best blessings in life God places
just beyond your reach. If you want it, it takes a leap of
faith to get it. She also said that the best opportunities
in life are easily recognized once they're lost."
I continued, "You're a twenty-six year old woman
and not a
virgin: so what? In a way, your friends are right: you need
to move on but in order to do that, you have to learn to
trust again. You've painfully learned that trust, like your
innocence, is a very precious gift. You've also learned to
be careful about giving that trust blindly. Our life is
built on trust: there are eight lives in our family at
stake. To us, it's sacred. No one in this room will ever
make fun of you, criticize you or humiliate you for
trusting us with your feelings. So I'll ask you one last
time, what do you want in your heart of hearts and tell me
what you'll give to get it."
With tears streaming down her face from her large black
almond eyes, Miko looked at me and answered, "I see what
your wives have and feel for you. I saw the pure undying
love in your youngest wife's eyes, I see the love you show
all of them and I want that too, more than anything else in
the world. I've dreamt about it, fantasized about it and
pined for it for five long years. When I saw you and your
family again, that love seemed to be even greater now and I
just had to speak to Priya about it. I can't go through
life any longer with this hole in my heart. It's just too
painful! If you can instill THAT kind of love in such a
young girl's heart, I know that I'd be safe with you."
Miko blew her nose and continued, "I know in my
heart I
could give my heart completely to you and I so what to be a
part of the sisterhood Priya talked about last night. I
want to share in the happiness all of you have and I'll
withhold nothing to have it: even if it means giving up my career!"
"There!" I answered to extol her, "You
said it. See, no
one's laughing or ridiculing you. Yesterday, I admitted to
you something I could go to prison for. I trusted you
first. As I said, there's nothing more dear to us than
trust. You've trusted us with your feelings and desires and
I'll tell you, you'd never ever have to give up your career
to be loved by us!"
Sitting back and smiling at her as I wiped a tear from
her
cheek with my thumb, I said, "All of my wives think you'd
be an asset to our family and want to get to know you
better, as I'm sure you'd like to know us better and see
how our family works. As for me, we'll just have to play it
by ear and see if the fires of love can kindle. Let us get
Malina home and settled, then in about two weeks, I'll call
you to set up a time for you to come out and spend some
time with us. How's that sound?"
Miko broke down crying again and whispered, "Domo.
Domo
arigato."
Rubbing her back, she kinda melted into my hand and I
asked
her, "See what a leap of faith will get you?"
"Here" I added as I pulled out my wallet,
"Here's my
business card. If you'd like to talk, give me a call. If
I'm not changing a shitty diaper (She gives a sniffled
giggle) or relieving my cow's engorged breasts (almost a
laugh), we can talk. Now, can you forgive yourself and be
happy again?"
Wiping her eyes with her hands, Miko looked up, smiled
and
answered, "Only when I've become a part of something bigger
than myself. I'll always be afraid until my dream comes true."
"Time will tell," I replied.
"Thank you Sean, Priya and Monaavi," Miko
offered, "You've
been most kind. You're sure I can call, I mean, your wives
won't be jealous?"
We laughed at her comment and I jokingly replied,
"You want
to join a polygamist marriage and ask if they'll be
jealous? See the irony in that? They've practically given
you permission to jump my bones."
Miko blushed, nodded and agreed, "Yeah, I guess it
was
kinda silly of me wasn't it?"
"Seriously though," I stated, "There is,
as far as my wives
are concerned, only one condition you need to be aware of
before we go any further."
Looking at us apprehensively she asked, "What's
that?"
Priya came into the conversation and explained about
Leeya's desire to be a mother and the promises we'd made
that her time was next, excluding Priya or Monaavi becoming
pregnant again. Priya then asked her about children.
Miko blushed and replied, "If this comes to
fruition, I
would be fourth wife and have to defer to my other sister's
rights, correct?
We all nodded.
"Then my place would be set," Miko bowed,
"And I'd accept
my position with open arms. My only desire is to have a
child. If I can have more, I'd treasure that in my heart."
"I told you Sean," Priya stated, "I told
you she'd be a jewel."
"Ok Miko," I finished, "It looks like
we're about to begin
a courtship: you and me and also you and my wives. A little
advice: just be yourself, let us see how you feel. You have
no one to impress, you're safe with us."
Nodding Miko replied, "I know I'll be safe. I'd
better go,
Dr. Simpson will be making rounds soon and I'd like to
protect your privacy."
"You're very kind Miko," I answered,
"Like I said, if you
want to talk before I get a chance to call you, feel free:
anytime day or night, OK?"
"Thank you Sean," she responded with a smile.
When she rose to leave I started to stand, but she said,
"No, no. That's quite all right. Goodbye for now."
"Goodbye Miko," I replied with a soft tone and
a smile.
As Miko stepped to the door, she turned and bowed. Priya
lovingly said, "Sayonara Miko."
Miko blushed, bowed again and answered, "Domo,
sayonara
Priya, Monaavi and… Sean"
With that she turned and left.
