Really nice update �

I love the flow of events, keep the vibes booming @Kweensheba

Waiting for more

I awoke the next morning and immediately grabbed my cell phone. No messages. This was the nightmare that I had feared. I got up, showered and prepared to run errands. Then finally, the phone rang and it was Tinu. I took a deep breathe and answered.

“Hello”, I managed to muster in my best nonchalant voice.

“Hello Mike, its Tinu, how are you?” That was her reply.


She began to tell me how busy at work she had been that week. She said that she had thought about calling a few times but never got up the nerve. I confided to her that I had did the same thing. Suddenly two people who used to always get along were now struggling to even hold a normal conversation.

“Look Tinu”, I told her, “I think we should have a talk when you have time. We can’t leave things like this between us. Can we meet up when you have some time.”

“Sure”, she replied, “I am working today. I am at the office alone on Saturdays. This would be a great place to talk with no interruption”.

“That will be great, Tinu. How about noon or so. I will stop and get lunch if that’s ok”.

“Good, I will see you about noon.”


I stopped and picked up lunch, then headed to Tinu’s office. She worked in a confectionery which was about thirty minutes away. As I drove, I was trying to think of what to say and how to say it. I arrived and was glad to see Tinu’s car in the parking lot. She would definitely be around.

I walked inside her office and set the bags of food on the table. She looked amazing as usual. She hugged me and gave me my usual kiss on the cheek. Not good, I thought as I sat down. I opened the bags and laid out the food as she finished up on her laptop. She soon joined me and began eating. We made small talk and it was obvious neither one of us wanted to start this conversation. Finally, I decided to be the one.

“Tinu, I don’t know what to say, but I have to say something. The other night was amazing but I somehow sense it may have been a mistake, "I said, looking for some sign of how she felt in her face.

She looked down, then finally spoke.

“I had a wonderful time too Mike. It’s just that I don’t know quite how to relate to you now. I mean, what exactly are we now. Are we friends, are we more? Are you Uncle Mike or just Mike? I just don’t know.”


“I really don’t know either, Tinu”, I replied, “But we need to figure this out.”

“Yes, I know. Jimi knows something is wrong with me. He has asked at least a dozen times this week what is going on with me. I have just been telling him I’m exhausted, but I don’t think he is buying it.”

“Tinu, if he finds out, you know he will tell everyone, " I told her.

She nodded in agreement as she took another bite of food.

“ I just think the best thing to do right now is just take some time to think about this, Mike.”

“If that’s what you want Tinu, I am alright with that. I just don’t want to this to come between what we were before it happened.”

“I agree, "she replied.

We agreed to take some time and think about what had happened and to weigh the situation out completely. We talked for a few minutes more and I left her to her work. As I drove home, I knew I had to put any romantic thoughts of Tinu as far in the back of my mind as I could. On the way home I did my usual errands as the next day I was going to see Deola’s parent, which I still did at least once a month.

I arrived at my in-laws the next day about noon to have a Sunday lunch with them. While we were eating we had our normal conversation. They caught up with me and I with them. They were good people and I have to honestly say that through my entire marriage to Deola had never once treated me as anything other than the son they never had. As I finished my meal at the table, feelings of guilt were taking over. We talked for about another hour, then I began my trip home. It was always good to see Deola’s parents. But it was also always sad. We both reminded ourselves of what we had lost when Deola had died.

The week started like any other, trying to bury my head with work to keep my mind off of things. No matter what I tried to think of, I kept coming back to one thing. How long would it take to resolve this situation between Tinu and I?

Well done OP!

Nice update

The week started like any other, trying to bury my head with work to keep my mind off of things. No matter what I tried to think of, I kept coming back to one thing. How long would it take to resolve this situation between Tinu and I?

By the end of the week, I had still not heard from her. Should I call? No I decided, this time I would wait for her call. After all, she was planning to get married and I wasn’t. This was far more dangerous for her.

That Saturday I was having a technician to install a new TV on the wall with surround sound. While they were working the phone rang. It was Tinu.

“Hello Mike, how are you?” It was Tinu.

“I am fine sweetie, how about you?” I replied.

She told me she was doing alright and that she wanted to see me again and talk. She told me Jimi was going to the club the next day with his friends as he always did on Saturdaymorning. He never returned until late that evening and he was usually drunk. We agreed to meet at my house around noon.

The next day came and right at noon, the doorbell rang and there was Tinu. She had on a blue jean skirt and a while V-Neck cashmere sweater on. She looked amazing, but then again she always did.

We sat down and made conversation for a while about the past work week. Deola relayed to me that she was getting busier in her place of work.
I had to strive within me so that I would not to look at her legs. I also did not not want to make her feel uneasy, but all I could think about was the heaven that was just passed those creamy thighs. Finally, she got around to the subject at hand.


“Mike, I don’t know quite how to say this without you taking it the wrong way. And I don’t want to make things anything worst than they already are, "


“I don’t know how to say this without just saying it. I know this is going to sound insane, I know I think it is, "she continued.

I felt like something big was about to be dropped.
Did I want to say something, maybe stop her before she would say something I don’t want to hear? It was too late.

“Mike,” she said, then she followed with the longest pause of my life. “I, think I may be falling in love with you," she stammered.


I was dumbfounded. This is not what I expected. How do you reply to that? I thought carefully of what to say. Finally after a moment, I responded.

“Tinu, I have always liked you, I just never thought of being in love with you, "

I looked at her face for any sign that I might have said the right or wrong thing. She looked down at her shoes, biting her lower lip. She looked like perhaps she was sorry that she had told me. She looked up, took a deep breathe and continued.
“I have thought of nothing else but what has happened since that night. I have felt just about every feeling I think could be felt. I was anxious, regretful, excited and guilty all at the same time. I think I was foolish to think I could replace Deola. I am sorry Mike, let's just put this behind us and go back to the way things were.”

“Tinu, no one can ever replace Deola. I would not want you to try. I have felt all the emotions you have described as well. I was afraid that things would never be the same between us. I never imagined that you would feel that strongly about me, "

“What do you want to do Mike?” Tinu asked.

I could see she was struggling emotionally, her eyes began to fill with tears. Her whole body had begin to slump, her shoulders sagging. I had a knot in my throat, I was trying to think of what to say. I said the first thing I could think of.

“What about Jimi?” I asked.

She sat up and seemed to be upset at the mention of the name. Her eyes looked deep into mine. Her gaze was riveting.

“Jimi has never been much of a partner. But what’s more important is, he has never been a genuine lover nor my friend. Jimi only cares about Jimi - himself. Period. I have always just tolerated it. If the biggest concern in your mind is for Jimi, I have made a huge mistake. It is not late. I will correct it.”


“No, Tinu”, I quickly replied. “ I just didn’t know what else to say.”

I thought carefully for a moment, then I decided to lay everything on the line.

“Tinu, I will be honest. Until those words came from your lips, I never thought of being in love with you. I think the fact that you’re engaged and all the family problems that would arise, I never considered the possibility of that happening.”

“But”, I continued, “No matter where this goes, I have to tell you this. If this goes any farther and I fall in love with you, there is no backing out. I just can not imagine losing two women in my life. So maybe you should think of that and get back to me. If we fall in love, we have to be together. You will have to leave Jimi, we will have to deal with our family.”

She put her head down and thought for a few moments, then looked up at me.

“I totally agree Mike," she said very firmly.


She stood up and walked over to me. I got out of my chair and stood up. She wrapped her arms around me and put her face in my chest. My arms wrapped around her and in a flash, I felt whole again. She lifted her lips to mine and we kissed. It was a kiss that told me she was being truthful. When she pulled away from me, she took both of my hands in hers. Her hands were so soft, so delicate.

Now I’m enjoying this story cos of the frequent updates. Thanks for the update

Nice! Well done @KweenSheba...

Go on

She stood up and walked over to me. I got out of my chair and stood up. She wrapped her arms around me and put her face in my chest. My arms wrapped around her and in a flash, I felt whole again. She lifted her lips to mine and we kissed. It was a kiss that told me she was being truthful. When she pulled away from me, she took both of my hands in hers. Her hands were so soft, so delicate.

“Come with me Mike. I want you to make love to me. I want to be appreciated as a woman. I finally want to have sex with a man who cares how I feel.”

She took my hand and we walked to the back of my house to the master bedroom. I hesitated as I walked in the room for just a second. The last woman I had slept with in this bed was Deola. It felt strange, but somehow, it felt right.

We fell into bed locked in each other’s arms. There was no urgency, no rush. I wanted to do this right. We kissed over and over, breaking only long enough to look at each other. No words were used, none were needed. My hand went down to the back of her thigh. I gently but slowly slid it up until my hand felt her panties. I rolled my hand around her thigh to the inside. My fingers pushed aside the soft fabric and found her very wet pussy. It seemed to feel even better then it did the first time.

I extended one finger and began to rotate her clit softly, sliding it in her pussy, pulling out her juice and rubbing it on her clit. Her hand moved down and started to rub my cock through my trousers. I felt so at ease, so relaxed. I could sense the need in her body growing by the way she was squirming beneath me.

I sat up and looked down at her. She was beautiful. I lowered myself down her body. My hands slid her skirt up until it was around her hips. I gently pulled her panties off, then tossed them aside. They were soaked with her juices. Slowly inch by inch, my face moved to her pussy.

“Oh goodness, Mike. I have only had this a few times in my life. Its been years since I have a tongue deep inside me.”

It’s alright," I told her, “Just lay back and enjoy it.”

I looked at her pussy. Her lips were already puffy, her clit peeking out. Her juices were running out of her and down to the sheets. My tongue touched her gently. She arched her back in response pressing her pussy against my mouth. I slowly pushed my tongue deep into her pussy. I could tell from her reaction she was appreciative.

“Oh Bleep," she cried, “Please don’t stop.”

I had no intentions of stopping. I reached up with one hand, took two fingers and spread her lips apart exposing her clit. I took the tip of my tongue and began quickly circling it. After a dozen or so times, I pushed down and sucked her entire clit into my mouth, gently sucking on it. Her pussy was sweet, her juices were thick but delicious.

After a few circles around her ever growing clit, I would extend my tongue and push it as deep into her pussy as I could. Her hands wrapped around the back of my head and her fingers moved thru my hair. My reached under her and lifted her ass off of the bed and deeper into my mouth.

“I’m going to cum, baby. Now…now…now…”, Tinu whispered.

I released her clit from my lips and used my tongue rapidly across her swollen clit. Suddenly, a spray erupted from her pussy coating my mouth and face. I opened my mouth and began to drink.

“I’m cumming, "she squealed, “Oh my goodness, am I cumming !”

Stream after stream of liquid hit the back of my throat. I was having a hard time swallowing it all. It was running out of mouth and coating her ass. Finally, after what was the longest orgasm I have ever seen a woman have, she relaxed her body just a bit.

“Oh my goodness Mike, did I just squirt?" she asked unbelievably, “That has never happened before. I didn’t know I could do that.”

I lowered my mouth back on her. I started licking up and down her lips, cleaning up all the juices. My tongue pushed between her ass cheeks, licking up all of her cum.

“ Yes, baby, I love it. Please make me cum again," she begged .

I started in on her again. I wanted her to cum in my mouth again. This time, I wasn’t slow. My tongue flew over her clit as my fingers spread her lips. Her hips were off the bed pressing into my face. With no warning, again I sucked her clit between my lips. For the second time, Tinu exploded in ecstasy.

“Bleep, I am cumming again, suck it baby, suck that clit.”

Again her cum flowed against my lips. Not as much as the first time, but from her reaction, the feelings were just as intense. I continued to suck her clit until her body fell back to the bed. Then gently I released her and began to gently kiss her clit.

“Oh my fucking goodness, Mike. That was incredible baby. I have never cum like that in my life. I cannot believe I have been missing that. “

I moved up her body and pressed my lips to hers. She instantly put her tongue in my mouth and began to taste her cum. She kissed me for a long time, then rolled me over.

Hmmmm so hmmmm

Wawu

Hmmmm. Good work, keep it up.

Carterj007:
Hmmmm. Good work, keep it up.

Ure everywhere

jullyrosy:


Ure everywhere

Babe I dy follow you everywhere.

I moved up her body and pressed my lips to hers. She instantly put her tongue in my mouth and began to taste her cum. She kissed me for a long time, then rolled me over.

“Now, I want you inside me, "she whispered softly.

She moved her hands down and unbuttoned my trousers. She slowly lowered the zipper down. I helped her ease my trousers off. She pulled down my shorts and released my rock hard, swollen cock. She wrapped her hand around my cock and started to stroke it. Slowly at first, then increasing in speed. She moved her face down to her hand. As she lowered her hand to the base of my cock, she wrapped her lips around the head. I felt a shiver run down my spine and I Obviously shuddered noticeably.

“Its ok, Mike. Let it go baby," she said softly.

I cannot describe how her mouth felt on my cock. Every nerve in my body was on fire. My heart was racing, my stomach felt like I was in a dropping elevator. Her lips tightened around my cock as she began a sucking motion. Her hand began to move up and down on my cock in rhythm to her mouth. I knew I wasn’t going to last too long at this rate. I raised my head to look down at her. Her long hair had spilled all over my body. I couldn’t see her face. Her left hand had moved down her body and she was frantically stroking her clit. Her hips were bucking against her fingers. I knew if I was going to Bleep her, it had to be now, before she made me cum.

“Let me Bleep you, Tinu. Let me inside you now, " I asked.

“No, not yet, "she replied, “Soon.”

She once again took me deep into her warm mouth and began sucking. My orgasm was close, very close.

“Tinu, I am not going to last much longer," I pleaded.

Then with no warning, she placed her tongue on the most sensitive area on my cock, right below the head. She began to roll her tongue in circles rapidly all the while maintaining that wonderful suction on my cock. I couldn’t hold off any longer, I warned her. My hand tapped her on the shoulder. I wanted to give her the chance to pull my cock from her mouth before I let go.

“Tinu, I am going to cum baby, now…"

She gently shook her head, like a no…then just a “mmmmmmmm”
came from her throat. Without warning it came, wave after wave of sensation, followed by the first spurt of hot cum. She sucked deeply again and was ready for the second. Again another wave erupted. She raised her head off my cock and began pumping me with her hand. Stream after stream of cum flew into the air.

I looked down and she was staring at my cock as she jerked me off. Cum was running out of her mouth landing on my belly. Her hips were bucking wildly against her fingers which were still buried deep in her pussy. She looked up at me and her eyes rolled back.

“Goooooooooodneeeeees, oh Bleep yes, Bleep yes”, she screamed out. “goodness dammit this feels so good.”

For the third time Tinu’s body convulsed as she rode wave after wave of pleasure. This orgasm was not as powerful as the first two but seemed to be longer. She moved her mouth over me and began sucking my cock again. Her tongue rolled around my cock, as her hand pumped what was left of my cum into her mouth.

I felt my cock begin to soften, but Tinu refused to release me from her sweet lips. Her mouth continued on me, softly, in an almost delicate manner. Her hand reached up to mine and our fingers entwined. Her hand was covered in both of our orgasms. I squeezed it tightly. She removed her mouth from my cock and looked up at me.


* * *


I knew now, somehow, both of our lives would never be the same.

I jumped up startled by a strange sound. I looked over and Tinu was sleeping next to me, the room was beginning to darken. I looked at the clock, it read 3:40 PM. Again the sound, it was a cell phone and it was not mine. I shook Tinu gently. She opened her eyes and I am sure it took a second for her to remember where she was and what had happened.

“Your phone is ringing, "I told her.

“Oh shit, what time is it?” she replied startled.

She reached for her phone and answered it and as I suspected it was Jimi. He was about to leave the Club and he had called home to see what Tinu was doing. He received no answer at home so he called her cell. She told him she was shopping but would be home soon. They talked for a few seconds more then she hung up.

Jimi has lost his girlfriend

Tinu is gone,

Well done KweenSheba

aprilwise:
Jimi has lost his girlfriend

This is what happens when people careless about the people they ought to care for the most.

She reached for her phone and answered it and as I suspected it was Jimi. He was about to leave the Club and he had called home to see what Tinu was doing. He received no answer at home so he called her cell. She told him she was shopping but would be home soon. They talked for a few seconds more then she hung up.

“I have to get dressed and go home, "she said, with a most disappointing look on her face.

“I know, "I replied, “I’m sorry I fell asleep.”

“It’s ok, I just have to get home before he gets there, "

She got up and put her panties on and went to the bathroom vanity. She stood in front the mirror and began to clean herself up. I watched her and could not help but feel wonderful and awful all at the same time. She was absolutely breath taking.

I think I had never really looked at Tinu as a woman before, only as a sister. But here in the bathroom light, I really saw her for the first time. She was about 5’5” tall and weighed maybe 120 lbs. She had a tiny waist and full firm thighs. I am awful at breast size, but she was just right for her height. Then it dawned on me that we had been together twice and she had never removed her shirt.

“I will call you later," she told me as she walked toward me.

She stooped over and kissed me. Not just a quick peck but a long lingering, deep kiss. Her tongue slid between my lips and quickly found mine. I reached up and pulled her close, returning the passion. Soon I felt myself stirring again. She broke the kiss and pulled away slowly.

“We keep this up and I will be undressing again, " she whispered to me.

“That would be a good thing," I replied.

She smiled and waved at me and walked out of the room. A few seconds later I heard the front door open and close.


Tinu texted me later that night that Jimi was watching her every move so a phone call was out of the question. She had to go to the bathroom just to message me. I decided not to reply in case he would be close. Although, it was not unusual for me to talk to Tinu, I just though any increase in our normal pattern might be bad for her. Less is better, especially now.

I went to work the next morning and was soon deep in paper work. About 10 o’clock that morning Tinu called. She had been at work only a few minutes that morning. She told me that Jimi was being particularly interested in her every move. She told me that she woke in the middle of the night and saw him checking her phone. Thankfully she had deleted the message to me and I had not sent a reply. I told her maybe we should hold off on any more contact for a while and let things go back to normal. She agreed that might be the right thing to do at this time. We said our goodbyes and hung up.


The week trudged on and I could not believe how bad I missed Tinu. It was not just the sex, it was the companionship. I had been alone for so long but never realized just how lonely I was. I think no matter what situation you find yourself in, you begin to adapt. I was looking forward to the weekend thinking that maybe I would get to see Tinu again.

Soon it was Friday evening and I was on the way home. As was my normal ritual, I stopped and picked up dinner on the way. I passed Tinu’s but saw no car in the drive so I continued home. Several times that night, I thought about calling but decided against it. I just sat there half watching TV constantly checking my cell phone. Soon I decided to just go to bed early and put myself out of my misery.

The next morning I got up about seven o’clock grabbed a bite to eat and went out. I went to the grocery and drug stores, returned home and put up the groceries. I went out again to wash and vacuum my vehicle. All day long I was hoping for my phone to ring, but it never did. Again I went to bed that night longing for Tinu.

The next morning was Sunday and again it was my standing dinner engagement at my in-laws. I dressed and arrived at about noon as usual and went around the rear of the house. I entered through the kitchen door to the familiar sight of my mother-in-law standing at the stove cooking. As soon as the aroma hit me, I knew she was cooking chicken and sausage pepper soup, one of my favorites. I kissed her on the cheek and sat down at the table. We made our usual small talk to pass the time. Then if by after thought she added that Tinu and Jimi were coming over today as well.

I was not sure how to take that news. While it would be great to see Tinu finally, I would have to see her with him. Suddenly I realized that I really disliked Jimi a lot more then I really had the right to. After all, Tinu was his wife and no matter how poorly he treated her, I was still the bad guy here. I was going to have to be very careful how I reacted to both him and Tinu in public from now on. This was not going to be every easy. About twenty minutes passed before I heard them pull into the drive. Here goes I thought, this is going to be awkward.

Jimi walked in first followed by Tinu. Her eyes met mine but she quickly looked away. I could see the panic in her eyes. They both went over to Mummy and kissed her. Jimi came over and shook my hand and gave me his normal, you should be happy to see me face. Tinu followed and leaned over, kissed my cheek and gave me a quick hug. It was extremely unpleasant to say the least. Not the contact, the situation.

They both sat at the table and made small talk. I made a real effort to look at Tinu as little as possible. Jimi was going on and on to my father in law about how he was supposed to be playing golf today. Obviously, two of the four members he normally played with could not make it this morning so it was called off. Soon my mother-in-law was finished and we were moving to the dining room to eat.

“Mike, would you help me bring the food into the dining room?" she asked me.

“Sure, Mom, no problem," I replied.

When everyone had left the kitchen for the other room, she touched me on the arm and looked at me with a very troubled look on her face,



A Strange Love: https://okadabooks.com/book/about/a-strange-love/44750

I’m enjoying this story. I want Tinu and mike to be together

When everyone had left the kitchen for the other room, she touched me on the arm and looked at me with a very troubled look on her face,

“Are you ok, Mike?" she asked, “You seem very quiet today. In fact you haven’t said a word since Tinu and Jimi arrived.”

“I’m alright Mom," I answered, “There is no problem, ma.”

If you only knew I thought, as she handed me the large pot of pepper soup. I Bimbod the pot to the dining room table, returned to help her with the bread and drinks.

My in laws took their usual seats at both ends of the table. Jimi and Tinu sat at the two chairs across from me. I took a chair across from them and made sure I was directly across from Tinu.

I sat down and began to eat. As was usual when Jimi was around, he was the center of the conversation. I only joined in when I was asked a direct question. I replied as quickly and briefly as I could and would return to my meal.

I noticed that Tinu was extremely quiet as well in spite of her Dad’s best attempts to get her in the conversation. I looked up a few times and caught Tinu glancing over at me. I would quickly look away as to not let everyone know with my eyes, what was obviously written all over my face.

I had fell head over heels in love with my wife’s younger sister. Soon it was time to head home and I said my quick goodbyes and made for my car.

On the drive back I began wondering how long this charade would play out. The more I thought about it, the more I became convinced that there was no way we could effectively have an affair and keep it quiet.

And to be honest, I realized that I wanted much more than an affair. The more thought I gave this situation the more I realized it just could not continue. By the time I arrived home, I made a decision not to pursue Tinu any longer.

Interesting update

Ride on.

Ride on

Ride on.

On the drive back I began wondering how long this charade would play out. The more I thought about it, the more I became convinced that there was no way we could effectively have an affair and keep it quiet. And to be honest, I realized that I wanted much more than an affair.

The more thought I gave this situation the more I realized it just could not continue. By the time I arrived home, I made a decision not to pursue Tinu any longer.

The next two to three weeks passed and I made no attempt to contact Tinu and she made no attempt to contact me. I figured by that time, she pretty much felt the same as I did. As good as it was, it was just not something that could continue.

It was the beginning of December and Christmas was almost here. I really had grown to hate holidays these past few years. Everyone was always so happy and surrounded by family. With Deola gone and no children, Christmas was just depressing as hell for me. The extent of my Christmas shopping was a present for mother and father in law and one for Tinu and Jimi.

My relatives were far away. My only sibling had travelled abroad. As my parents were both deceased, I was practically all alone. I always waited till the last minute to shop and this year was probably going to be the same. About a week before Christmas I got the usual call from my in-laws inviting me for Christmas Dinner.

I told them that I might not be able to make it this year, I may have other plans. In fact I had no plans, but the thought of spending hours that close to Tinu again was something I did not think I could handle. It was better to stay home and have a quiet day.

On Christmas Eve I stopped by my in laws' house and dropped off gifts for them and Jimi and Tinu. I told them I had been invited to a friends this year and wished them Merry Christmas. My mother-in-law walked me out to the car. I knew she wanted to talk to me about something.

“Mike, what’s going on with you lately?" she asked me, “And don’t tell me your just tired.”

“Mom, you know, its just this time of year, " I responded.

“No, its more than that," she replied.

I tried my best to reassure her nothing was wrong but as most mothers can do, I think she saw right through me. I continued to make excuses as I got in my car to leave. Once again, I wished her Merry Christmas and pulled out of the drive.

Christmas morning arrived and felt like any other day. I got up, looked out in the front and saw a few of the neighbor’s children out playing with their new toys. I made some breakfast and settled in front of the television. A few hours passed and my cell phone rang. It was Tinu. I answered the phone.

“Where are you, Mike?" she asked, “We are at Mom’s, she told me your not coming today.”

“No, I have other plans Tinu, "I replied.

“Mike, are you avoiding me?”

“Not at all. I was invited to a friends this afternoon and I decided to go," I answered, trying my best to sound convincing.

“alright, "she said, “Have a nice day, I miss you.”

“I miss you too, sweetheart.”

The next week was just about done and New Years Eve was approaching. Again I had no plans, and figured I would spend the holidays alone watching TV. Friday night was New Year’s Eve, on Wednesday, I received a call from a longtime friend of mine.

We had went to the same high school together and both had played ball later at the same college. I had heard he had just opened up some sort of night club in the city, but never really heard much about it.
