Chapter 20: Sister Gina's surprise party
Although my first thought was to suck on her nipples and nibble gently, I knew that it was not the right time to act impulsively. So, I left the opportunity for another time.
With a sudden jolt, my mother broke off our bounding session. I stumbled backwards, caught off guard by her swift movements.
"Let's go inside, you two," Celeste beckoned, leading us towards the wooden door of our hut.
Reena's voice rang out, breaking the peaceful silence, "Mum, did you forget?" she asked urgently.
Celeste furrowed her brows, her expression turning thoughtful. "Forget what?" she asked, her eyes searching our faces for an answer.
Reena's face scrunched up in frustration. "Did you already forget what Gina told you yesterday?" she pressed, her eyes darting between Celeste and me.
As my mother's confusion turned to realization, a mischievous glint appeared in Reena's eyes.
"She meant it?" Celeste exclaimed, turning her attention fully to Reena.
Reena nodded, a sly smile forming on her lips. "Of course she did," she replied. "But we can't let him in now. We don't want him to ruin the surprise."
I couldn't help but feel curious about what they were planning. What surprise were they talking about? As if reading my thoughts, Reena turned to me with a sweet smile before refocusing on Celeste.
Reena's voice trailed off as she paused for dramatic effect, before continuing, "Of course she did...I mean, I contributed too.' My curiosity was piqued as she went on, 'But you should understand that she'll be back soon, and we can't let him in now, so he doesn't ruin the surprise."
Ahem! I don't think it was wise of them to mention a surprise to the person that they were going to surprise, but, what do I know?
Also, from the chuckle that escaped her lips soon after, it wasn't hard for me to tell that she knew what she was doing.
"I'm sorry, Orion," my mother's voice was filled with both exhaustion and excitement, 'but it looks like you'll have to wait outside until your sister Gina arrives."
I blinked in confusion, wondering where I was supposed to go. Sensing my unease, she quickly added, "Don't worry, you can stay with Grandma Vivian until Gina gets here."
I would have been annoyed since I just wanted to lay down my head and rest, but considering that they are planning a surprise party for me, I simply nodded my head in understanding.
"Okay," I replied, my gaze briefly flickering towards my sister's slim and toned body before settling back on my mother's ample breast, "But I'm not sure I remember where Grandma Vivian's place is."
In truth, I didn't even know who the old woman was.
Reena's sweet smile widened as she nodded in response, her arm linked with mine as she led me towards the third hut beyond ours.
"Don't worry," she assured me, "I'll take you there so you can rest for a while."
As we walked, I could hear my mother's voice carrying over the distance, "Grandma Vivian knows about your current condition, so don't worry about a thing."
As we approached the hut, my eyes darted around the exterior, taking in the rustic appearance and the lack of decoration.
It looked really old.
Reena noticed my curious expression and explained the situation with a serious tone. "This is the home of some of the retired women in the village," she began, her voice tinged with a hint of sadness. "Many people rely on Kalna fruits to secure their future, but not everyone has the chance to gather enough riches due to various factors such as appearance and magical ability."
I interrupted her "Which means?"
"Yes," she replied, "we the poor ones have to stick together and share what we have at a lower price in order to survive in this world."
I nodded slowly, my mind racing with newfound understanding. So that was why there were several huts in a single compound, while some had their own compounds. I previously assumed it was because of their financial capabilities, but who would have thought that it was because they had banded together to survive as one?
Suddenly, a hand reached out and pinched my cheek, dragging it with a playful tug. "Don't worry about it," my sister said with a sly smile. "You know I'm one of the most beautiful women in the village, and with my powerful magical ability, we'll be able to secure enough wealth to get our own compound and a very large hut in just a few years." She released my cheek and planted a kiss on it.
I kept my hands around her waist and squeezed her perky butt, as I mused 'But I am going to accomplish that before you'. And I meant those thoughts since I sure as hell wasn't going to remain poor for the rest of my life in this primitive world.
"Alright, now that you know this, don't let grandma Vivian's body or those of her hut mates repulse you. I know you tend to do that a lot, as I've heard Mom grumbling about it whenever she sends you messages to their hut," Reena said seriously, gazing at me. She sighed and continued, "But you should know that she was the one who helped Mom with some of the fruits for your payment. So even if you don't enjoy being around them, it would be nice if you just act the way you usually do around your friends."
I nodded again, but my thoughts were rapidly spinning. 'Repulsed by her body,' I repeated in my mind. Does that mean that she, too... I gulped down my saliva, realizing that it wasn't just one humate, but several of them.
Reena's hand flew forward and rapped on the wooden door. The sound echoed through the silent hut.
"Who's there?" A husky female voice called out from inside the hut, shattering the stillness of the air.
"Its Reena and Orion from the other hut" My sister responded, making sure that her voice was loud enough to penetrate through the door.
