This is an Incest story between Mother and her Son.
It is a long story about a taboo subject. This Chapter might be better if it is read after
Chapter 1 - yin yang, Chapter 2 - rodeo, Chapter 3 - seduction, Chapter 4 - river and Chapter 5 - queen.
Kama Sutra is an ancient Indian text written in Sanskrit and is not just a sex-guide as it is projected out by many, although sexuality is at its core. The sexual-positions associated with Kama Sutra are a playful take by the philosopher Vatsyayana, who many centuries earlier addressed sexuality as a tool for a better life, better relationships, and emotional fulfillment of society.
I can't claim to be an expert on Kama Sutra or even close to knowing enough about it, and I have taken liberties for the sake of the plot.
Enjoy...

Saraswati and Manu
We regrouped into the make-up room for a final goodbye.
"I must say you both have a phenomenal chemistry between the two of you," Megan commented at one point.
"Thank you," Mom responded.
Alex added, "it shows how much you love one another."
"That we do. Without a doubt." Mom responded.
I joined the group, "hey." Looked around everyone to catch-up on the conversation. Then I added, anxiously looking towards Megan, "when do you think we should have the first slides for proofing?"
Megan smiled hard, almost chuckled, and then composed herself to respond, "I think it would take a couple of weeks before I can put together the final set for approval."
"We are already in October, Megan. I hope you appreciate that we will be cutting it sharp for the distribution deadline of December Fifteen." Mom added.
"I'll try and rush it, but we have a lot to work with, as you know," Megan added.
Before the evening ended, we had marked the pack-up in a celebratory mode, and Mom and I thanked every crew member.
As we bid 'good night" to everyone, there was a tinge of sadness that was creeping into me, as was also the anxiety of what was to come.
"Good night, lovers," Alex chimed, in her usual remark as she did each night for the past week.
"Ciao," I replied.
"Good night," Mom waved towards Alex.
On the way back, I called Sam on the car audio and updated him of the shoot.
"Hey, Sam. Free for a minute?" I asked.
"Sure, Adam. What's up. How did it go?" Sam queried in return.
Mom relaxed on the passenger seat with her eyes half shut. I guess contemplating something, though she looked beat and half asleep.
"The shoot was wrapped up. I think we did well. Megan seemed pleased. I guess, now, you would need to take it up with her over the next couple of days." I instructed.
"Sure. I will call her tomorrow. I already spoke with Bartholomew, and we would meet with them in a couple of days along with Sara to do a final meeting of production planning." Sam seemed pleased.
"All right. I thought of letting you know. I will talk to you later then," I closed.
"Sure, Bye," Sam replied.
"Good night." I clicked the phone off. I glanced towards Mom and saw her relaxing in the passenger seat, staring out of the window at nothing in particular.
The moment of truth was waiting for me at home.

We ate dinner at home, picked up some Indian food on the way home.
Over dinner, we had a good conversation about what the future beholds and life back to normal.
"Do you think we should expand with another bookstore? I feel within the next month or so this one would come through. I think I could soon handle this one with a manager." Mom opined.
"I agree. I told you earlier the store has come out nice with the changes you have made. Footfall has increased." I knew Mom was very serious about her business but the fact remained that managing or owning a single store for her was like living in retirement. She was used to managing a large business and had the experience to multi-task.
"I think we should set up another store towards Downtown. I usually get a lot of inquiries from there." Mom added.
"Sure. I like the idea." I added.
"I like the thought of expanding within LA first before touching another town for our expansion." Mom was almost enthusiastic even as words left her mouth.
We chatted for another hour as we ate dinner and discussed the bookstore, about my acting career, celebrities we saw recently, and her favorite -- cursing Sam.
We laughed a lot and then eventually got up to turn in.
My heart was beating like that of a racehorse when I returned to Mom's room that night after cleaning up and changing into my boxers for the night. I was worried Mom might turn me back to my room, now that the photoshoot was over. Mom had reminded me, just in the morning, that it had to end after the shoot. I, on my part, had slipped-in that it can be discussed tomorrow. That meant, at least in my mind, tonight was allowed. But it still had me anxious.
I took my time to go to her room, and not surprisingly, Mom was already in her bed, under the covers. She had turned towards the opposite side and gave an impression that she was not expecting me.
