"Baby, we are here." Kenzo woke me up, but the words made no sense to my bewildered brain.
The truth was, I was awake the whole ride; my mind was lost in all the things bothering me.
I got up and rubbed at the soreness in my neck, then stretched my arms above me before looking around to see a humble home not far ahead. It looked a lot like a farmhouse, but that wasn’t the only thing that caught my attention. The sun was just about to set in the distance, giving the house an almost orange color and making it look like a sunset. It gave it a warm feeling, but something inside me got even more troubled knowing we were approaching.
As Kenzo stopped at the front of the blue wooden gate of the house, the tension started to build up more inside my body. It grew so heavy that my heart started beating faster.
"Oh shoot! I can't!" I whispered to myself in panic.
Kenzo stepped out of the car first before opening the passenger's seat door and gesturing me over. "Come on, no matter what happens, I will always choose you."
I nodded, and he took my hand and walked to the gate. The ten trucks behind them lined up at the front gate, causing their neighbors to go out of their houses to check even though it was already dark.
Kenzo opened the gate, allowing us inside, and I followed closely behind him.
"I'm here!" Kenzo called from the front door, and a strange feeling filled up in the pit of my stomach when he knocked on the door.
When I saw his face from the corner of my eyes, it seemed as though his expression was also one mixed with worry, nervousness, and something else. But I couldn't decipher exactly why. Maybe it was because of the dark shadows under his eyes, or maybe it was the fact that his usually styled hair fell onto his forehead and gave him a somewhat disheveled look.
"Oh, you are finally here!" A woman who appeared to be in her late sixties or seventies, came forward with a wide smile on her face, wiping her hands with a towel on her waist. "Welcome."
Her voice sounded a bit harsh and stern, but there was some kind of softness hidden within it too, something like sadness that could be detected if you paid closer attention.
But what caught me off guard was that she hugged me instead of Kenzo. She kissed my head and put her hand over her mouth to kiss it as a gesture of respect to the elderly. So I did since I was too stressed about what to do to get them to like me.
Kenzo nodded slowly but didn't say anything and simply stared down at the floor before moving forward into the living room. He didn't let go of my hand and led me towards the couch, where three people sat, each with their heads tilted slightly in a curious manner.
"Mom, Dad, Keera, this is Stella, my girlfriend," Kenzo introduced while squeezing my hand lightly for comfort. "Stella, my parents, my sister, and grandma."
"It's nice to meet you, Stella." Kenzo's mother, a woman with long dark hair, smiled politely while her father stood up from the couch, holding both his hands in front to greet me. "It's nice to finally meet you," Kenzo's father said, smiling softly as he bowed slightly before releasing my hand.
I curtsied back gently before saying, "Hi."
"You're pretty cute. Okay, enough with this, let's eat. I bet you are already hungry after a five-hour trip," Grandma said, gesturing us to a small dining area with a simple feast waiting for us.
Kenzo turned his attention back to me and said, "Chill, ok? Let's eat."
I looked back down at the ground after listening to him before nodding. "Ok."
"Oh wait," I blurted out all of a sudden as I remembered my gifts to them.
Everyone looked at me, and I felt like giving the gifts I prepared would be too much for them, and I would look like a desperate sugar mommy.
"What is it? Don't tell me you prepared gifts. That would be funny," Kenzo's father chuckled at the end and patted my back gently, and I could feel myself blushing as everyone else chuckled at his remark.
"Actually, I did. I was thinking of not giving it, as it would be too much, but I cannot just let it all go to waste," I smiled awkwardly and stopped talking as all of them except Kenzo looked in shock.
"Ah, I hope it won't shock you; it's just a simple gift for bringing Kenzo into this world. I cannot make them wait for long, so...please excuse me," I announced tensely and ran outside to let the men bring all my purchases inside.
And before I knew it, the whole neighborhood was helping us unload everything. Then, when some were busy putting up all my gifts somewhere in the house, Kenzo's family and other neighbors brought out their tables, gathering them all in the middle of the open yard, while children danced around a huge bonfire since the night was colder.
"This is..."
"I told you, everything's going to be fine," Kenzo cut in, hugging me from behind while I was on my way out to bring the food from the house.
"Hey! Someone's going to see us!" I protested while trying to pull myself away from him while pushing at his chest to show he was not doing any good. But it proved futile when his grip tightened around my waist and pulled me towards him harder, so I fell back against his chest.
He laughed low. "Don't worry. No one has noticed yet. Besides, the whole neighborhood knows about our relationship already."
I sighed heavily as I put my weight on my feet and faced him. "Kenzo!"
"What? I told them you would be my wife soon, so what is our problem?" Kenzo sounded silly, slipping his hand inside my shirt.
His fingers played on the curve of my belly, and he grinned at me with mischievous eyes.
"KENZO! Let go! Please, I cannot risk any moment they will unlike me!" I shook my head and moved backward a little more.
"Ahm, people are hungry; you can be sweet later?" Kenzo's sister spoke as she entered the kitchen with a silly smile and picked up other food to bring outside.
Kenzo immediately let me go, helping his sister. I followed her instantly and tried hard to hide my red face. Outside, I watched Kenzo's sister start serving the meal on the tables as people gathered around, while music played along the festivity.
We ate and opened gifts for the kids, which made everyone happy, as others were excited to anticipate what we'd give them, especially the older ones. We decided to give some of my gifts to their neighbors, as it was too much for Kenzo's family. When everyone finished eating, I heard Kenzo's mother announce that it was time for bed and that everyone should leave for their own homes. Then there were sounds of chairs scraping the carpet as everyone stood up to bid farewell.
"You can sleep in Keera's room. I'm sorry if we have only a simple house," Grandma helped me clean up.
"Grandma, it's ok. Actually, I realized how much I like this life better than where I grew up in the city," I assured her and assisted her to the kitchen.
By the time we finished, I went to Keera's room, but I didn't expect to see Kenzo waiting for me, pulling me immediately to him and gesturing for me to keep quiet.
Silly, Kenzo!
"Where's Keera?" I whispered in curiosity, looking around in search of her.
"Well, I asked her to switch rooms," he whispered sexily, locking the door behind me. The sound of the crickets filled the silence of the night, filling the air and leaving nothing but the two of us in the darkness of the room. Kenzo had me wrapped up in his arms as I leaned back against his chest, my arm wrapping itself around his neck. Kenzo held me close to him and rested his head on top of mine before closing his eyes.
"Thank you," I uttered, somehow relaxed after surviving the first day.
"No, thank you, Stella! How I wish we could soon meet your family!" Kenzo whispered as he stroked my back gently.
After a few moments of quietness, Kenzo pulled me down to bed and cuddled me closer. As the moonlight hitting the windows created a peaceful atmosphere around us, he started to kiss me passionately with passion, desire, and lust, not forgetting caution to keep quiet.
I could feel Kenzo's hard member rubbing against mine, and I could feel him getting harder. And then suddenly, there was this sensation inside me, and my body shivered and trembled as if I had been electrocuted. My breathing became shallow as the heat began to spread throughout every nerve ending in my body. I moaned slightly in anticipation of what was going to follow.
"Kenzo, we should really not..."
"You can just be quiet; you don't have to move a single muscle. Besides, the floor won't even make a sound," he whispered through our kisses.
"Kenzo," I hissed, flustered with his actions as he started to lift up my shirt to touch me.
"I am dying to touch you for hours," he groaned as he squeezed my boobs hungrily.
I placed my hands on his shoulders, stopping him from doing anything further. But it seemed he wasn't having any of that as he slipped past my arms and proceeded to slide his hand underneath my underwear, making me gasp softly as I squirmed under his touch. He started rubbing my c******l area with his thumb softly, making me moan and groan as I clenched my legs together. He smirked at my reaction while placing his free hand on my thigh. His thumb rubbed at the spot, making me arch my back against his finger.
"Kenzo."
"Keep it silent, baby," Kenzo murmured, gasping quietly, which made him sexier and aroused me more.
"I'm trying," I whined, trying to fight off my moans with my hand, but I couldn't stop as his warm hand continued to touch me intensely, back and forth, rubbing the spot over and over again.
I closed my eyes slowly as I took a deep breath, burrowing my head into his chest and clinging to his shirt badly to stop myself from being overwhelmed by the pleasure.
"I want you more, Stella," he said before removing his shorts and underwear and positioning himself on top of me.
I looked at him with wide, surprised eyes.
"Just be ready for me, baby," he smiled before thrusting deep into me and taking control.
We both lost ourselves in the intensity of what he just did to me, causing me to press my lips harder against his lips to stop me from making any noises.
His movements were slower but stronger, as we were still inside each other, moving rhythmically together, making the pleasure greater. I never knew how much better these slower movements are, with their intensity and pleasure raging inside us. It was intense enough for me to lose control as I cried silently in pleasure, throwing my arms around his neck.
"I love you, baby," Kenzo murmured, burying his face between my shoulder blades as he kissed my neck softly.
"I love you too, Kenzo," I replied softly back before he lifted my hips up to deepen his thrust.
He grabbed both of my wrists and pinned them above my head, then his other hand slid underneath my hair, caressing it while kissing the back of my neck and biting lightly on it as he kept thrusting in and out of me while grunting and panting, making me do the same.
"f**k, Stella..."
Kenzo panted roughly, slamming me hard against the mattress, letting out restricted moans as we continued. I bit my lip while grinding my hips down into his.
"Oh gad! Harder, Kenzo!" I cried to him, clenching him tightly in a hug.
He wrapped me in a tight hug as he thrust deeper and stronger into me.
"Hold on!" He groaned in his low voice, gripping my hips tightly and driving me wild. Our breaths quickened as I squeezed my legs tightly around his torso, feeling so full.
He tucked me in and moved faster this time, thrusting harder than ever before. It felt like an eternity before we stopped. I was panting heavily and trembling violently from all the intense pleasure Kenzo brought me. After that, we collapsed on the mattress, sweaty and exhausted. I rolled over to get comfortable, snuggling against Kenzo, who held me in his embrace lovingly.
"Goodnight, Kenzo," I whispered, hardly keeping my eyes open.
"Ah, actually, we only have two hours left. We have to wake up before four a.m. to prepare food to bring to the rice field," Kenzo said, holding me while chuckling silently.
"What?"
"Yes! If you want to get me, you have to show them you can do anything." Kenzo kissed me on the forehead and shut his eyes immediately.
"Wow!"
