******* Birthday ********
It's been two days. Nothing strange has happened. I haven't seen that student again. Maybe, he wasn't angry with me. He was just passing by.
Sai is sleeping. Full of my essence. I let Rui clean me up after fucking her standing up. Against the wall. Like Ning. I made Rong and Suntan ride me. Force them to serve me.
They're pretty obedient. Although they haven't improved much in their loyalty. They're afraid of me. And they hate me. Suntan even more. But she's learned to obey.
I put my robes back on. I don't usually do this before welcoming the girls. But today is different. I set up tables and chairs. And I call everyone except the twins. They're waiting, nervous. Both think they're going to surprise each other. They don't know that the rest of us have been plotting against them.
The girls managed to make something resembling a cake. I've been working in the kitchen these past few days. It's easy to get ingredients there. They don't have them under tight control. What slave is going to steal flour if they can't cook for themselves?
It hasn't been easy. The kitchen is a highly sought-after place. Much in demand by slaves. We can eat the leftovers. But between favors and a little forethought, I've managed it.
Secretly, Yi has been making a necklace for her sister with a stone she found. And Yu, some earrings. It's their birthday. Both of their birthdays. They've bought some materials with points. They've separated from each other with any excuse to do the shopping secretly. And they've crafted their gifts secretly. Along with what they collected in the expedition.
The girls have helped both of them. Without the twins knowing that they were also helping the other twin. They've had a lot of fun. Especially Bai Wan. I think she's the one who has enjoyed the most being able to plot against her cousins.
We're all seated. With drinks, cake and some more food that I've managed to obtain, was stored, or the girls have prepared. I then call the twins. Each one on a different side of the table.
"What's this?!" Yi asks in surprise.
"What's going on?" Yu asks.
""""Happy birthday!"""" we all shout.
It takes them a few seconds to react. To get embarrassed. To smile.
"Damn! You've been preparing this in secret!" Yi accuses us, almost with tears in her eyes.
"Th-Thank you," Yu cries.
We make them sit at the table. Amid laughter. And hugs. They soon calm down. And demand explanations. Of how we did it. Of how we conspired against them. Without them realizing it. Behind their backs.
Amid mockery, we tell them. Amid exclamations of surprise. A few friendly threats. Joking. Hugs. Kisses. With me, a little more passionately. And lots of laughter.
The cake is delicious. At least from a slave's point of view. I don't know if the twins or Wan feel the same way. They seem to enjoy it. There's a lot of love put into it. Even if it were a rock, we'd eat it while laughing. And, honestly, it's very soft. And sweet.
Everyone has helped with one thing or another. Except for the twins, of course. I haven't been able to help with the cooking, but I have been able to help with gathering ingredients. And some tools.
I'm at the head of the table. Each of the twins is on one side. I approach Yu. I kiss and lick her cheek. There was a little cream on it. She blushes. She turns. She kisses me on the lips for a few seconds.
I sit back down. I notice a strange silence. I look around. They're all looking at me. All with cream on their cheeks. I certainly wasn't expecting that. They're giggling. I guess it's because of the look on my face.
"You better start," Yu laughs too.
So, one by one, I wipe the cream off them with my lips. And lick theirs. Ma Lang is a little shy. Bai Wan is completely red. Everyone is staring at her. In the end, they applaud her. Which makes her blush even more.
I walk past Yi as I return to my spot. She grabs my clothes. She whispers in my ear.
"Give it to me."
Without her sister seeing, I place a small, gift-wrapped box in her hands. I sit down. Yu looks at me. I think she wants to ask me the same thing. But I pretend I don't notice. She seems to want to protest, but her sister catches her attention.
"Happy birthday, Yu," she says, handing the gift to her.
Her surprised face is adorable. She really wasn't expecting it. Even when she's made a gift herself. And they're twins.
She opens it and discovers a beautiful necklace. Perhaps, it's not exceptional. I'm not an expert either. But it's handmade by her sister. I know she can tell when she holds it in her hands. She stands up to hug her sister. A few tears flow.
Before turning back, she comes to me.
"Put it on me," she asks.
She turns her back to me while I put the necklace on her. And I tie it in the back. The clasp is delicate. Handmade by Yi. She's no expert. But she's done it with patience and dedication. Meanwhile, Yu's hands are behind her back, asking me to give her the gift.
"You look beautiful," I say, kissing her on the cheek.
She blushes slightly. She smiles at me. Still smiling, she turns to her sister.
"Happy birthday, Yi."
She's as surprised as Yu. Did she really not expect her sister to do the same? We all laugh. Wan is having a great time. It's my turn to put her earrings on her. Kiss her. Tell her how beautiful she looks. She's radiant.
Everyone congratulates them again. And praises the gifts. They're simple and unique. The twins hug again. They'll fight later. Maybe, tomorrow.
