In REM sleep, Kishen was moments away from waking up. He saw himself riding a bike along an empty highway bridge that ran over an endless sky like river. He could feel the wind hit his helmet-secured face.
Opening his eyes and taking a couple of moments to come to his senses, he found that the wind he felt was from the fan. The cushiony comfort he felt while riding relaxed and laid back on his cruise bike was actually Usha aunty's thighs pressing against his rear. Her body cupped his as they slept in fetal-like position. He looked at Neethu who slept facing him in a similar fetal position--cuddled-up by Savi from behind.
Awoken--perhaps from sensing Kishen's stare--Neethu opened her eyes. The two smiled at each other like playful children. They suddenly remembered how, as kids, they went to bed the same way with their moms during the few times the two families went for weekend outings.
"What are you thinking?" Neethu whispered.
"How long do you think our parents have been fucking?" Kishen asked, in a hushed tone.
"For a pretty long while..."
"Do you know how it all started?"
"Well...from what I know Sunil uncle (kishen's dad) and pappa (Ramesh) became close friends after y'all moved in, and it helped our moms were both horny and progressive"
"How did you get involved?"
"I caught them fucking in Manoj sir's house. They were red and embarrassed. I already had my suspicions. I was 16."
"And...they added you in?"
"Of course not. They were very apologetic but equally responsible. Till I turned 19, they educated and counseled me about their lifestyle, the risks, the advantages, etc. And after they were sure I maturely understood everything, they extended to me the invitation to join. Only God knows how much I had to suppress my temptations and horniness until then. I always had a crush on your dad, so I let him take my virginity and add me to the cirlce--on my 19th birthday."
"If I remember, you had a boyfriend back then, right?"
"Yes...but my parents were strict about NOT telling him anything about until and unless I got to know him better and loved and trusted him to be my husband. They'd taught me how teen love can seem so surreal and larger-than-life and yet be so fragile and shallow. So I'd always been cautious. And given I'm a horny bitch, I decided to break up with my then boyfriend on the month of my 19th birthday. I never really found a true lover until I found my husband, years later.
"And how did it you gel with Usha aunty and Ramesh uncle? Wasn't there any element of shock or surprise for any of you?"
Yes...our parents' lifestyle made them pretty accommodating. Even as I indulged with the group, for a long time, I kept my distance from Pappa. And from what I know, he had his inclination for me, but never pursued me to not make me uncomfortable in anyway. Honestly, I can't imagine how grossed out I would have been had he tried to approach me sexually then. It would have been a shock and too much to handle. It would perhaps have strained, if not ruined, our relation as dad and daughter. It's a sticky subject, and varies from person to person, relation to relation, situation to situation."
"So, how did you two end up...you know...fucking?"
"In time, as I got more comfortable I began playing with the idea, and things fell in place..."
"Usha aunty was all cool about it?"
"Her main concerns is that no one, especially me, should be scarred, pushed, groomed, or inconvenienced. And the dynamic is more about respecting boundaries above everything else."
Neethu smiles.
"Why are you smiling?"
"I was just recalling the day your dad took my virginity. It had been the most beautiful experience of my life. He was tender, caring, loving, gentle, understanding, and more. Your dad has a special place in my heart."
"Just like how you have a place in my heart for taking my virginity."
"Yeah... I wanted so much to take your virginity. It was like a sweet Karma to Sunil uncle. But I guess Ma should've been the real one to pop your cherry. We saw how you both were so involved with each other."
Kishen blushes.
"Any more questions?"
"Many...I still feel far from making full sense of it all. Please don't mind me if I keep pestering you with questions."
"Of course not. I gotta get up now though. Wonder what our fathers are doing. Abhay (the baby) has been sleeping long enough, if he is asleep that is." says Neethu as she slowly and carefully gets up from the bed so as to not wake their mothers.
Not feeling sleepy anymore, Kishen decides to go along with Neethu. As he gets up, he feels an ache in his butthole. It momentarily takes him back to what he's been through.
Just as the two quietly exit the room and close the door behind them, they see Manoj sir emerge from Neethu's room. He was wearing his uncle T-shirt and shorts.
Embarrassed out of the blue, Kishen covers his groin. Neethu isn't fazed at at all being naked in-front of Manoj sir.
"When did you come Manoj sir?" Neethu asks.
"About 20 minutes back...I just dropped baby Abhay to MIL" responds Manoj sir.
Noticing Kishen all surprised and shy, he asks, "What are you being shy for Kishen? You've fucked my wife looking into my eye"
Kishen stammers.
"How did you manage to do that alone? Let me guess, sending the baby was Pappa's idea, right?" Neethu asks, rather annoyed.
"Yes...and Me and Deepti went. Ramesh said your mother in law is a natural in taking care of babies."
"That toh, she is. But what did you tell her when she asked where I was?"
"Ramesh spoke to her and said you'd be busy with the family. She didn't buy it, but agreed as she was keen for the baby."
"I hope he will be alright..."
"Of-course he will be...this is your motherly instinct speaking. Keep it aside. You've got to engage with us today. Come here..."
Setting aside her motherly concerns, Neethu walks towards Manoj sir with a naughty smile. Manoj sir smiles at Kishen watching them and runs his hand affectionately over Neethu's hair.
