Kimiko Ch. 01

By: Paniolo Boy



During my senior year in high school, my economics teacher thought it would be a neat little exercise to have us students learn about the world of investments. So she had a couple of local stock brokers come in and give us a couple of presentations. Mutual funds, the stock market, penny stocks, treasury bonds, junk bonds, the works. The number of choices were mind boggling! All with different risk and reward potentials. 

All this had a purpose however. Our teacher then gave us an assignment to put together an investment portfolio with an imaginary $10,000, along with the reasons why. With a couple of weeks to go, I started looking at various choices and finally settled for the balanced investment approach; some in mutual funds, some in money market accounts, and some in stocks. Of the stocks, I selected three stocks; one being a blue chip that returned steady dividends, one that I thought one would turn over periodically, and one that was a long shot that I thought a patient investor might, just might (!?) make money at.

Well, my paper got a B-, so it probably wasn't such a great investment strategy! Its short term earnings potential was moderate, and it proposed an unknown earnings possibility with the 'long shot' investment. So what! At least I got a B-.

Got through college without much fanfare; graduating in computer sciences. At that time, it was still pretty much wide open as to where the industry was going. But I figured that technology would be one of the significant drivers of our lives in the future so stuck with the curriculum. Glad that I did.

Anyway, I seemed to take to computer technology and infrastructure design and did well in school. At least well enough to land a fairly decent job upon graduation. I became a technology designer for a hardware manufacturer located in Silicon Valley. Yep, a technology designer working in 'Chip City'! 

What's a technology designer you ask? Good question! I asked the same question when I was hired. But since I was looking at a reasonably good starting paycheck, I wasn't going to question it too much. As it turns out, technology design really interested me! 

What it is, is the art of taking advancements in technology and seeing if they can be melded together in such a manner so as to address a future market need. That's how laptop computers, PDA's, routers, digital cameras and other stuff came about. And I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. 

So there I was, with a dream job, making more than a few bucks in the process, but working my butt off six or seven days a week. And the travel! I had to be able to pick up and go at any moment. It wasn't uncommon to be called to New York or Chicago at any given moment! Video conferencing was still in its infancy development stage at that time. But that did eventually make it into the real world, didn't it!

When I was around 25 or so, I was doing my tax returns before the annual deadlines caught me unprepared again! My investment income was horrible. I decided that I really needed to take my liquidity and invest it into things that would give me a suitable return. So I dusted off my old high school investment paper and gave it a quick look see.

Well, I still didn't see anything wrong with it so I went to see a broker the next day over my lunch hour. He gave me a couple of mutual funds to take a look at along with their cash management account details. He also gave me a couple of stocks that he considered long shots, if I wanted to take the risk.

I took a look at the stuff that night and decided to plunk down most of my cash into a mutual fund, a lesser amount in their cash management account, and enough in stocks to buy 1,000 shares in a small computer manufacturer that seemed to have potential. It was listed at 9-3/8 on the broker's informational sheet so I figured that it was cheap enough that it made the risk affordable. We all know this company as it really went big time later!

After the paperwork was done and the money transferred, I promptly went back to work and forgot all about the investments that I had made. Good thing the mutual funds were managed by someone else! Anyway, the funds and the cash management account returns were ok. And I lost track of what the stock was doing but I figured that I would keep it for a rainy day anyway.

Anyway, the hustle and bustle of the job was exciting in the beginning however it became tiring after 10 years or so. Plus, with me on the road so much, and not knowing where I was going to be from week to week, it was hard to establish a meaningful relationship with someone of the opposite sex. Something that I regretted.

It wasn't so much that I wasn't getting any. But the occasional one night stands and casual link ups left me empty afterwards. The sex was great! The babes tended to be younger with lots of energy. But relationships were generally not high on their agendas. So after a night of great sex, I would usually feel unsatisfied and disappointed. I guess we were just using each other to get off! So I lost interest in one night hook ups. 

Back to the here and now........

So here I was at age 44. Spent 21 years with the company that I started with. They had been good to me but the bubble was about to pop. At least I could see it coming. We had attracted too much attention with our success and we were about to be acquired by a larger company. Actually, it was that same company that I had invested in years ago. 

They wanted the patent rights and trade registrations to a couple of our products that had turned golden! What better way to acquire them then to acquire the company that owned them. Not only do you get access to the patents and trade registrations, but you also get access to the company's earnings and cash flow! Well the acquisition was history before anyone had an idea of what was going on.

With the acquisition unfortunately came the layoffs. The redundant departments were the first to be let go. Then those of us who were high on the salary matrixes were next. And with my 21 years, I was really high in the salary matrix. So I had become another nameless statistic in the world of M&A's; that's mergers and acquisitions to those of us who haven't been 'touched' yet!

They wanted me to stay however at a much reduced compensation level. I felt that was a lot of bull! I didn't give my all to the company to now be treated like chattel. So I applied for and received full retirement even though I lacked the age. At least I met the years of service plus age requirement to qualify for retirement. Although I had to wait until age 60 to begin receiving benefits, my monthly income would be about $5,000 per month, not including social security benefits, assuming that it wouldn't be broke before I started drawing my retirement.

On my last day of work, I was asked to report to Human Resources where I was met by some personnel flunky who must have been all of 22 years of age. And he had the gall to remind me that I had signed a non-compete agreement when I was first hired by my original employer.

I promptly told him to stuff it up his ass and walked out. On the way out I informed him that if the company chose to enforce that archaic agreement against me, that he could expect to be talking with my attorney. No smart ass was going to tell me what to do! The hell with him and the hell with this company! I guess I caused quite a scene as I departed! Everyone was looking at me as I strode down the hallway and into the next available elevator!

I was so pissed I decided on the spot to cash out all of my company stock that I had purchased years ago! Perhaps it was going to be more symbolic than anything else! After all, the sale of 1,000 shares of stock wasn't going to set the world on its edge! Well, at least I would get my satisfaction; well at least some satisfaction. 

So I picked up the phone and called my stock broker. Ok, at least some guy at the brokerage where he used to work. My original broker apparently left some years ago, but I guess I really didn't care or take notice. Anyway, long story made short, I found out that my 1,000 shares had morphed over the years!

After a number of stock splits and stock dividends, my 1,000 shares ended up being more like 100,000 shares! Plus I had apparently elected to reinvest all of my dividends so that was thrown into the pot as well! So after all these years, my investment in the company was more like 150,000 shares! 

So I cashed them out! It felt good! Because of the number of shares I owned, I had to file some sort of SEC form to give the company advance warning of my intent to sell. Plus I had to wait a week before I could sell. Don't ask me why. I just wanted to dump the stock. So I signed and the broker filed the report.

Amazing! The next day I received a call from the company's investor relations department inquiring why I was selling. So I told them that I needed some funds to live on since the company had just laid me off! Ha! It was sweet however bitter at the same time. 

Well after a week had gone by, the brokerage firm called me up to inform me that they had my check waiting for me. But as the amount was so large, that they felt it prudent that they withhold 30% for taxes. I did some rough math in my head; 150,000 shares at $30 per share came out to $4,500,000 ~ HOLY SHIT!!! And 30% of that was $1,350,000!!!! ~ HOLY DOUBLE SHIT!!!! That left me with a check of about $3,150,000! HOLY TRIPLE SHIT!!!!!

I had become a millionaire overnight! I went down to the brokerage and picked up my check. I guess my hands must have been shaking as I took possession of it! I don't think I've ever seen that amount of money in my entire life! 

I took the check down to the bank and paid off my mortgage, all of my charge cards, and still had more than $2,750,000 left over! I just stuck it into a money market account and decided that I better think this over before I blew it all on meaningless stuff. One of my better decisions. 

Unfortunately, the world soon knew that I had come into some serious cash. I thought banks were supposed to keep their customer information confidential but I started to get hit up by every insurance agent, realtor, investment advisor, and the like! So I stopped answering the phone and decided that a trip was in order until the buzz died down. 

Over the years I had made several trips to Honolulu to see clients. I usually stayed at a hotel right next to a large shopping center, just before you get into Waikiki. I didn't like the traffic and the crowds of people there but I also liked the convenience of being close by to restaurants and night spots. So that hotel did just fine by me. Nothing extravagant however decidedly a level up from Business Class. So I booked a trip to Honolulu for two weeks. I figured it would be nice to kick back someplace where no one knew who I was. 

The flight over was ok. I figured since I'd be there for two weeks that perhaps a rental car would come in handy so I picked one up along with instructions of how to get to the hotel. The gals at the rental counter were pretty helpful in providing me with directions that were pretty complete.

After about a half hour of fighting traffic, I made my way to the hotel and left the car with the valet. When I checked in, I discovered that the hotel had upgraded my room to one of the business class rooms. That meant that I had a small Jacuzzi in the room and access to their pool, fitness equipment, and a continental breakfast each morning in their penthouse lounge. Pretty cool. 

By the time I got myself settled into the room it was about six in the evening. So I decided to go find someplace to eat. The guy at the concierge desk gave me a ton of options in the immediate area that I could walk to. As I was scanning the list of restaurants, I couldn't help but overhear the conversation that another guy at the desk was having with a young Japanese gal. She must have been in her late twenties, perhaps a little over five feet, and on the slim side. Plus she was cute! Very attractive. She was dressed in blue jeans, a nice blouse that hugged her body and sandals. Pretty much designer wear. The Japanese are very into name brands and stuff.

Anyway, she knew enough English to carry a conversation with the concierge as I could hear her asking the guy at the concierge desk about places to eat. I figured since she and her friends were also looking for someplace to eat, that perhaps we could keep each other company. So I walked over to them;

"Gomenasai (excuse me)," I said. I know just about enough Japanese to get myself in trouble. 

She looked at me a little startled but acknowledged my presence, "Hai (yes)?" she responded.

"I understand that you were looking for someplace to eat tonight?" I asked.

"Hai, I want find nice place to eat. Maybe not to expensive?" she asked in a quiet voice. 

"Well, perhaps we can help each other as I'm also looking for a place to eat tonight. Would you be interested in helping me look for somewhere to eat?"

She looked at me not knowing what to think. I could see indecision in her eyes.

I figured that I needed to put her mind at ease so I added; "I was thinking of finding a place to eat where the local people eat. Nothing fancy, then return to the hotel. What do you think?"

"Let me talk with friends please." and she turned to the phone on the concierge's desk and called her friends. After a brief conversation, she replied, "I think you are very kind to offer, but we are three all together."

"Three all together? Oh, you mean there are three of you?" 

"Yes please. Sorry, but we all friends so we all together. Is ok?" she looked a little apprehensive thinking that it might be a problem. 

"Yes, it's ok. Not a problem." I turned back to concierge and they gave me the name and address of a local restaurant nearby that they all ate at themselves. The driving directions seemed simple so I figured that I could take us all there in my rental. 

"Ok, let's have dinner at a restaurant nearby. I think we can go dressed any way you want so I'm going in my shorts and shirt. What time do you want to go to dinner?"

"We can go anytime you want. Now is ok." She replied, smiling a little more comfortably now after seeing that I was also staying in the hotel. "Oh, my name is Kimiko," she said. 

"Thank you Kimiko. My name is Todd and I'm a tourist also!" I smiled as I extended my hand which she shook. When our hands touched, I was taken by the softness and warmth of her hand. 

She smiled back at me, then turned back to the phone and called her friends. It took them about 5 minutes to get down from their room. Kimiko and I used the time to get better acquainted with each other. 

She was part of a group of tourists that had been stranded by their tour organizer. Pretty shitty deal, but it happens. Their tour guide met them in Osaka, got everyone on board the airplane and accompanied them here. Got them all checked in and had been ready to escort them to dinner when the guide got a call on his phone. After a brief but heated conversation on his phone, he told them that the company had just folded and so he was leaving since he wasn't getting paid. And he just split.

That had happened the day before. Luckily for them, the hotel rooms had been paid for and they all had their return airline tickets in hand. So they weren't necessarily stranded. It's just that they were kind of stuck for the rest of the week. So some of them decided to just go back home while the rest were left to do their own sight seeing. She and two of her girl friends decided to make the most of the days that they had remaining on their vacation also. They figured that this was probably their only trip to Hawaii and so they might as well see as much of Hawaii as they could.

By this time, her friends had joined us and we introduced ourselves to each other. Besides Kimiko, there was Ai and Mikan. All three were from Osaka and had grown up together. Ai was Kimiko's cousin. Ai and Mikan were a couple of years younger than Kimiko. Both were just as cute as Kimiko with Ai having a slightly bigger bust than Kimiko, and Mikan being slightly taller than both.

As we left the lobby to retrieve my car from the valet, the three were busily chatting away with each other. I could see by the frequent glances in my direction by Ai and Mikan that they were interrogating Kimiko about me. Probably questioning Kimiko's sanity in allowing me to take them to dinner. At one point Ai playfully slapped Kimiko on her arm which caused both Mikan and Kimiko to laugh out loud! As I turned to them, Kimiko turned an interesting shade of pink; she was blushing which gave both Ai and Mikan another reason to laugh at her expense.

As I raised my eye brow to them, Ai explained; "Sorry Todd-san. But we very surprised by Kimiko agreeing with you take us dinner. We tell her that she just want American boyfriend!" At which Ai and Mikan had another laugh!

Kimiko got embarrassed at this point and scolded both girls in Japanese, then turned to me, "Todd-san, please I sorry. But my friends rude sometimes."

"Kimiko, I will not be upset so long as all of you enjoy your dinner with me tonight, ok?"

Kimiko smiled, "Domo (thank you), Todd." Then turned to her companions and chastised them again, although both Ai and Mikan continued to give her a bad time!

Well the valet finally drove up with my car and brought it curbside. We all jumped in with Ai and Mikan in the back seat and Kimiko in the front. She didn't have a choice as both Ai and Mikan pushed her into the front seat and shut the door on her! They were having a good time already!

Kimiko continued to blush at their behavior. I reached over and took her left hand and squeezed it gently, "It's ok. I'd like you to sit in the front with me if you don't mind."

Kimiko looked at our joined hands, then squeezed my hand back and smiled at me. She then turned back to her friends in the back seat, stuck out her tongue and made a face at them! We all laughed at that!

It took us about a half hour to find the restaurant. It was located close to the Honolulu harbor area and featured seafood of all types. The restaurant was called Sam Choy's after its founder who was one of the local chefs who made it big. I had purchased one of his cook books on one of my prior trips and anticipated that the food was going to be simply great! And it was! 

As we ate, they asked me whether I was a tourist or not as it appeared that I knew something about the restaurant and wasn't afraid of driving here. I told them about my prior work as a technology designer and having been to Honolulu on several occasions. But that this trip was a vacation just for me!

All the girls worked in Osaka as general clerks. Ai and Mikan had boyfriends back home however Kimiko was single. Ai told me at dinner that Kimiko had helped to raise her from when they were small. Ai's parents both died when Ai was five and Kimiko's family took her in. Kimiko's mother passed away when she was in high school which left Kimiko, as the daughter, to now assume the responsibility of taking care of the household that included a younger brother and her father. Ai felt that Kimiko never had a chance to have a little fun on her own so this trip was for Kimiko whether she knew it or not.

Kimiko told Ai to not say anything but Ai insisted. Kimiko chastised her again, however Ai pouted and asked if there was anything wrong in telling me their story? Kimiko just shook her head. 

Ai then asked if I could recommend places for them to see and visit. I decided right then and there that I would try my best to give all three of them a vacation to remember!

After dinner was done and we were in my car driving back to the hotel, I asked that they meet me back in the hotel lobby lounge so we could talk about places to visit. They wanted to refresh themselves so we all agreed to meet there in thirty minutes. We exchanged room numbers so we could call each other if needed.


Kimiko Ch. 01



I went upstairs to refresh myself also and to grab some of the travel brochures that I had collected from the airport and the car rental place and made my way back down. I figured that they would like to do some sight seeing and spend a day or two on the beach, and perhaps a day or two of shopping. And since this would probably be their only trip to Hawaii, I thought that I would slip in a little treat for them; a side trip to Kauai on their last full day here. But that would be a secret for now.

I got down to the lobby and found the three women had arrived before me. A waitress came over and took our orders. As we chatted, I outlined my thoughts about spending the time sightseeing, on the beach, and a little shopping thrown in. And they liked the idea. 

I figured a day at Sea Life Park and the Waikiki Aquarium, then a day of shopping and a trip to the Polynesian Cultural Center, followed by a day at Hanauma Bay doing a little swimming and sun bathing. Then I told them that their last full day would be a surprise and that they would all need to pack a small bag with beach things.

Kimiko, Ai and Mikan all liked the itinerary however were concerned over the cost of the Polynesian Cultural Center visit. It seemed a little more than their budget could bear.

"Girls, please don't worry. I still know a few people here and can probably get us discounted ticket prices. I'll let you know the day before what to expect for the tickets. Ok?"

They seemed satisfied with that explanation. I figured that I would treat them but I wasn't going to let them know that. I just felt bad that their tour agent would leave the entire group high and dry like that. Hopefully I could make up for it and see the sights myself in the process. Besides, the girls were good company at dinner. I thought it would be a week spent with pleasant company if nothing else.

With that, we arranged to meet up the next morning for breakfast at around seven in the morning. As they got up to go up to their room, Kimiko shoo'd them off and waited until they were out of sight before she took my hand and asked me to sit.

"Todd-san, thank for your being so nice to us. I don't know what we do if you not help us."

"Kimiko, please, I am very happy to do this for you, Ai and Mikan."

"Where we come from, we just ordinary girls. Work in office. Go home. This trip special for Ai and Mikan. They young but have boy friends so before they marry, I want them to have fun trip. Once marry, maybe no time for fun trip. My gift to them."

"I understand Kimiko."

"So if something expensive, I will take care of money for them. Ok?"

"I understand however I will also try to make sure that everything we do is not expensive. Ok?"

"Thank you Todd-san."

"Do itashi mashite. (your welcome)."

That caught Kimiko off balance. "Todd-san, nihongo wakaremasuka? (do you understand Japanese?)"

"Sukoshi wakaremasu. (I understand very little.)"

"Honto? (really?)"

"Hai!" and I laughed. "Kimiko, I am part Japanese. My father was a second generation Japanese and my mother was Swedish. They met when my father served in Europe in the second world war. My grandmother, issei (first generation), helped to raise me."

Kimiko was speechless! I knew that I really didn't look part Japanese. About the only things about my appearance that gave it away were my eyes and my black hair. However if you didn't know, it would be almost impossible to guess!

"Your grandmother?"

"Hai. Obaachan (grandmother) taught me to speak Japanese when I was little however I have forgotten most of it."

"So-ka? (is that so?) You surprise me! But now you mention, I can see some Japanese in you." After a moment, she blushed. I think she was checking me out and was embarrassed when she caught herself doing that.

"So Kimiko, don't worry about money. Please. I will make sure that we will have fun and that it won't be expensive."

"Thank you Todd-san. You are so good to us. We are lucky to meet you." 

I rose and took Kimiko by her hand, "May I see you to your room?"

She blushed again! "Thank you Todd-san." I held her hand as we walked to the elevators and rode it up to her floor. 

When we got out of the elevator, Kimiko turned to me and placed a hand on my chest, "Todd-san, before we go to my room, I want thank you my way here so Ai and Mikan don't embarrass me, ok?"

"Ok, Kimiko, what..." and before I could say anything further, Kimiko kissed me! She kissed me! 

"Kimiko...."

She kissed me again while I put my arms around her and hugged her to me. As I did so, she put her arms around my neck and kissed me again! 

"Thank you Todd-san for helping us. You are handsome man and I ..... I don't know how to say ....... I think I like you ....... Is ok?"

And I kissed her back and hugged her tighter. "Is ok. And I think that I like you very much also, Kimiko. Very much."

She smiled and broke our embrace, then took my hand in hers as we walked over to her room. As she inserted her card key into the door lock, the door sprung open! Ai and Mikan had been anxiously waiting for her return! That led to another round of chastising in Japanese amongst all three! I chuckled at them, which caused Kimiko to swat me playfully on my arm! 

Ai and Mikan laughed with Ai telling Mikan that they should leave the two lovebirds alone! Kimiko was about to launch a retort at Ai, when I put my arm around her waist and dragged her to me. Kimiko squeaked her surprise just before I wrapped both arms around her and kissed her soundly on her lips! After a moment, Kimiko put her arms around my neck and passionately responded to me! Ai and Mikan were astounded! The silence would have been deafening if I were not so wrapped up in Kimiko!

As our kiss ended, Kimiko lowered her head to my chest, and sighed. As she turned and looked up and saw Ai and Mikan, she raised her hand to her lips. I looked over at Ai and Mikan and they both had tears in their eyes! I smiled at them and then looked back at Kimiko who was now looking into my eyes with a smile on her face. I kissed her again before taking my leave. The three girls were hugging each other when I left them.

Before turning in, I went to the concierge and made arrangements with them to purchase the tickets for Sea Life Park and the Polynesian Cultural Center before hand. I also asked that they charter a helicopter out of Honolulu to take us to the Napali Coast on the island of Kauai the day after our trip to Hanauma Bay. And if they could also have the hotel kitchen make up a picnic basket for us to take on the helicopter trip. They said that they would take care of everything and get back with confirmations.

I left my credit card number with them and instructed them to just leave a receipt with the front desk for me to pick up later. I knew from past experience that tourists paid a premium to get into these places and I didn't want that to be a dampener for the girls.

That night I lay in bed thinking of my encounter that evening with Kimiko, Ai and Mikan. How nice they were and fun to be with. I really enjoyed my evening with them. But most of all, I was excited about the possibility that Kimiko might actually have an interest in me. Although we only met that afternoon, so far we seemed to be very compatible. She was very nice and fun, plus she was cute! And she kissed me without hesitation on her part. I think we were mutually attracted to each other. I could see myself falling for her in a big way!

----------------

We met the next morning for breakfast at the appointed time. At first Kimiko was a little uncomfortable as we sought out how to act with each other now that our quick friendship had morphed into something a little more personal. However Ai would not let Kimiko stall as she pushed Kimiko into the seat next to me. I took ahold of Kimiko's hand and gave her a light squeeze and a smile to reassure her. She smiled and squeezed my hand back, then kissed me quickly on my cheek and smiled demurely! 

We had a quick breakfast then went back to our rooms to get ready for our day at Sea Life Park and the Waikiki Aquarium. I saw a message light on my phone so called in and retrieved a voice message from the concierge informing me that all had been arranged. And that the flight schedule for the helicopter ride would be left in my room later that day. 

I had told the girls to pack a bag for the beach so we could do some sun bathing and spend some time swimming if we could fit it in. We threw the bags in the trunk of my car and left on our adventure for the day. 

The ride out to Sea Life Park took about forty five minutes. Kimiko now openly claimed the front passenger seat as hers. We enjoyed the ride out to Sea Life Park as Ai and Mikan tried to read their tourist maps and pointed out items of interest to Kimiko and myself as we drove by them. 

We arrived at the park and made our way to the ticket booth. As they were gazing up at the entrance fees, Kimiko wore a frown on her face. I took her hand in mine, "Kimiko, we are to be guests today." 

At first she didn't understand, "But Todd-san, we must pay to go? Yes?"

"Not today. We are guests today. Ok?"

"How?" She clearly didn't understand.

I kissed her, "Shh!" And I kissed her again. Ai and Mikan were smiling broadly now!

I led us to the tour group entrance and introduced myself. "Ah, do you have tickets for a Kawaguchi party?" With that, the tickets were produced and we were allowed in and greeted by a hostess who explained the layout of the park in Japanese. After that short introduction to the park, we were left to ourselves to explore. 

Ai turned to Kimiko to ask, "Kawaguchi-san?" 

Kimiko smiled, "Hai! Todd-san is sansei (third generation immigrant)." Then she rattled something off, I think explaining the bit about my mother being Swedish and how my parents met. Ai's and Mikan's eyes were dancing as they took in everything that Kimiko said. 

Mikan agreed, "I can see his eyes, yes, Japanese. Kimi-chan, you lucky girl!"

Ai and Mikan laughed, and Kimiko blushed and smiled.

We explored the park and found the exhibits and shows to be first class! I especially liked the idea of being close and up front with all of the sea life on display. We even got to feed dead fish to the sea lions although it took some scrubbing to get the smell of the fish off of our hands! Ugh! 

There was also a gigantic aquarium that held sea life of all types. It must have been at least two stories tall and held sharks, rays, tuna, balloon fish, and an assortment of reef fish. It was so large that they also offered visitors a chance to suit up and go into the tank to feed the fish during different times of the day. Although interesting, we weren't inclined to do so.

We left the park just before noon time and drove north to the town of Kailua. It's a bedroom community with many of its residents commuting each day to Honolulu for work. We found a local restaurant and tried some of the local fare. We were introduced to the Hawaiian concept of a 'plate lunch' which consisted of two scoops of rice, macaroni salad and a main dish. Now I knew why so many local guys were huge! 

From the size of the servings we saw being dished out as we ordered, Ai and Mikan agreed to split one lunch while Kimiko and I split another. Even then we could barely finish the lunches. They were so huge.

With our belly's bursting from lunch, we were once again back on the road. This time I took the 'Pali Highway' which is a road that links Kailua with Honolulu, and goes through valleys and a mountain range via a tunnel. The views are quite breath taking.

As we got back into the car, Kimiko put up the arm rest between our seats and slide over to sit next to me. "Todd-san, thank you for taking us there." She kissed me on my cheek then leaned her head onto my shoulder. 

We drove up the Pali Highway and stopped at the look out. It's located at the crest of the mountain range and allows sightseers to see the fertile plains running along the northern coastline of Oahu. It was quite a view. And the wind! The trade winds come rushing in from the sea and hit the mountains, rising quickly and accelerating as they gain in elevation. At the look out, one could stand on the edge of the look out and actually lean out up to almost 90 degrees without falling off! Don't know if that's right or not. At least I wasn't going to try it!

We got back to town and went over to the Waikiki Aquarium. Now this is a true gem of an aquarium. Like Sea Life Park, the aquarium really puts sea life on display. They even had a tidal pool display that let you touch sea stars, anemones, and sea urchins. They even had little fish running around the display.

Kimiko held my hand the entire time, pulling me along with her into the dark rooms where they had a lot of smaller aquariums on display. She would turn to me from time to time and smile. The route through the aquariums took us by a small dark room. The sign on the side of the room noted that they had baby nautilus' there so they needed to keep the environment dark. These creatures live in the deep parts of the ocean and are not accustomed to lots of light. Out of curiosity, we went in to see the nautilus'. Truthfully, I've never seen one before in my life.

As we went in, we saw a row of aquariums set into the side of the room, back lit with ultra violet light. The nautilus' were bobbing up and down in the aquariums. We were fascinated by the sight. As Ai and Mikan were busy trying to get a closer look at these rare shellfish, Kimiko took the opportunity to turn me to her and kissed me softly. And I kissed her back.

After about an hour or so, we saw everything that the aquarium had to offer and left. I drove us over to the Honolulu Zoo and used their restroom facilities to change into our bathing suits. 

As I left the men's room, the girls were just leaving also. As they stepped out, the sight of these three wonderfully attractive women took my breath away! I must have been standing there with my mouth wide open as Kimiko walked over to me and placed a finger under my chin to shut my mouth! The girls were all laughing as she did that! 

They all had bikinis on which revealed their bodies in a tantalizing manner without being overly sexy. I could see that I would be the envy of all the males on any of the beaches that we would hit that week.

We walked over and staked out a spot on Waikiki Beach. Here we were! On the world famous Waikiki Beach! Wall to wall bodies, all oiled up, trying to soak up the sun's rays so that each could go home with a sun tan that boasted of their time in Hawaii! And the three girls were no different! Ai and Mikan wasted no time in breaking out their sun tan lotion and lathered themselves. Ai turned to me and asked if I could do her back. Kimiko quickly grabbed her lotion and spanked her on her bottom telling her something to the effect of not being naughty! Mikan and I had a good laugh at their antics!

However Kimiko didn't waste the opportunity to have me oil her up! She oiled her front before she handed me her lotion then laid face down on her towel. As she did so, she untied the strings to her top. I squeezed lotion onto my hands and rubbed them together to warm the lotion up a bit. Then I applied it to the back of her arms first. I made my way to her back and rubbed the lotion in and massaged her at the same time. 

As I oiled her back, I also put lotion on her sides. Kimiko turned her head to look at me and smiled, then turned to look at Ai and Mikan, who by now were laid out on their backs enjoying the sun. Seeing that they were not looking in our direction, Kimiko raised herself on her arms just a little to provide me with a little room to reach under her. 

I took the opportunity to slowly caress the sides of her breasts, then reached under to cup them and slowly squeezed them. Kimiko closed her eyes to savor my touch. Before releasing her breasts, I captured her nipples with my finger tips and slowly rolled them, producing a sigh from Kimiko when I released her sensitive buds. I kissed her and told her quietly, "you are a truly beautiful woman, Kimiko. Aishite imasu. (I love you.)" I don't know what possessed me to say that, but I did! And it was probably straight from my heart!

That startled Kimiko! Without thinking, she raised herself to look at me then hugged me tightly to her! We kissed passionately! Kimiko pressed her naked breasts into my bare chest as I hugged her tightly to me. Time stood still that moment! It was just Kimiko and me, lost in a fog of our creation! 

It soon dawned on her that she was without her top! I guess the hair on my chest must have stimulated her nipples. I felt them grow hard as she pressed them into me. She laughed as we kissed and told me, "Todd-san, I am sorry but I need top to bikini?" 

I could see her predicament so I told her that I would hug her until she was able to lay face down again. Then I would slip her top to her. Hopefully no one would have noticed. As I lowered Kimiko to her towel and she retied her top, Ai sat up with a grin and made an 'ok' sign with her thumb and forefinger. Kimiko was embarrassed until Ai came over to talk with her. I think more to assuage her fears about having Ai and Mikan know how she felt about me.

I took the opportunity to oil myself as well. I finished doing my front before Kimiko came over to take the lotion from me. "Anata (dear), please let me put on you?"

I looked at her and smiled, "thank you," then kissed her quickly. Her use of the term 'Anata' was not lost on me. It is normally used only between couples who are romantically linked. 

I laid face down on my towel while Kimiko oiled the backs of my arms and legs. As she oiled my upper thighs, I spread my legs slightly to allow her to get in close, which she did. In fact she got in so close that I could feel her hands as they brushed up and rubbed my scrotum several times. This was certainly not an accident! 

I glanced up at Kimiko and was rewarded by an 'air kiss' from her! She then oiled my back, massaging out any muscle kinks that she found! Boy was she good! But the caressing had gotten me excited and I was hard!

Kimiko finished with my back and motioned to me to sit up. I couldn't without displaying my excited state! 

"Kimiko, let me lay here for a moment."

"Oh? Why you no sit up?"

"Well, you got me a little excited!"

"Excited?"

"Yes."

"How so?"

"As in a man because of a sexy woman."

"Oh?" Then it dawned on her what I was saying. And she giggled and swatted me on my butt!

We managed to get into the water a couple of times. Ai and Mikan were content to lay there and soak up the sun while Kimiko and I used the opportunity in the water to hug and feel each other's body pressed against the other. We were standing in about 4 feet of water facing away from the shoreline when I took Kimiko's hand and pressed it against my erection from outside my shorts. She was hesitant at first but shortly became accustomed to feeling my aroused penis and took the liberty of sliding her hand inside of my swim shorts to grasp my hard cock! 

"Anata, you are first man that I know this way. I want you to know me too." With that, she turned in our embrace to face away from me. She took my hand and slide it down inside the front of her bikini. I could feel her soft pubic hair as I slide down further until I could feel the lips of her pussy. I slowly rubbed my fingers up and down her lips and then found her little nub as her arousal made her clit prominent. 

I pressed on her clit softly and rubbed it gently in circles. Kimiko leaned back and laid her head on my shoulder as she closed her eyes and whispered, "Anata,...... feels so good ....... anata ......" After a few minutes of this stimulation, she shuddered as she experienced her first orgasm by the hands of a man, and by me. 




Kimiko Ch. 01



When she was able to compose herself, she turned around in our embrace and kissed me, pressing her body fully into mine. 

"Anata,....... tonight ....... may I be with you?" 

"Kimiko, nothing would please me more than to be with you." And we kissed. "Do I need to pick up condoms?" 

"No, I have pill so is ok."

As we walked hand in hand out of the surf that last time that day, our relationship had changed in a most significant way. I think we both accepted the other as our chosen and it showed in how we responded to each other. Ai sensed it immediately as we walked up. 

"Kimi-chan," Ai smiled as she spoke. No other words were needed as she embraced Kimiko, then me. 

She addressed me, "Please be kind to oneechan (sister)." I hugged Ai back and took her hands in mine, "Hai. I promise to take good care of your sister." It was an emotional moment for us. 

We later returned to the hotel and went up to our rooms to clean up and get ready for dinner. Confirmation for our trip to the Napali Coast had been left in my room. We would need to be at the Waikiki Heliport around eight that morning. As it was just a few minutes from our hotel, that seemed to be a very convenient jumping point rather than going out to the airport. No need for us to fight traffic.

For that evening, I had suggested that we go out to a nice place to eat so we should dress appropriately. I had been treated on a prior trip to a dinner at the Miyako Restaurant in the New Otani Kaimana Beach Hotel. It was fancy Japanese dining. Since we had to go through Waikiki to get there, I elected to just hire a limo for the evening so I wouldn't have to put up with the driving or the ordeal of finding a parking space. 

I met the girls in the lobby and they were all dressed so beautifully in sun dresses. 

"You girls are so beautiful! I will be the envy of all men tonight!" The three women blushed. Ai and Mikan both kissed me on my cheek while Kimiko kissed me solidly on my lips, then wiped the lipstick marks from my cheeks and lips! 

We walked out of the lobby to the waiting limo and we were wisked away to dinner. As the limo motored through Waikiki, Mikan remarked that they would have been just another tourist from Japan in the mass of bodies that walked Waikiki if their tour agent had not left them in a lurch and Kimiko had not met me. 

She turned to me, "Todd-san thank you very much for taking such good care of us." 

"Mikan, thank you also for allowing me to take care of you." I turned to Kimiko, "and thank you for allowing me to be your friend."

"Anata, you are more than friend. I not like this to other men. I trust you with my heart. Wakaremasuka (understand)?" 

"Hai, yes I do." And I kissed her.

We arrived at the hotel without incident and I asked the limo driver to return in about two hours. He gave me his cell phone number in case we got through early. 

We walked through the lobby and found the muted entrance to the Miyako Restaurant. It was a simple doorway with a small niche containing a symbolic ikebana (floral arrangement) on display. Made of bamboo, ironwood and small chrysanthemums, it symbolized strength, long life and honor. 

We were met by a hostess who showed us to a private tatami (straw floor mat) room that had a view of the ocean and the setting sun. It took our breaths away!

"Anata, I hope it will not be expensive. Please don't spend too much for us."

"Honey, it is my treat! Please do not worry about cost."

We had a grand dinner that night. The waitress quickly picked up that the three girls were from Japan. Turns out that the waitress was from Kyoto, which is not too far away from Osaka. After that, the service, which was already great, became superb! I felt as if we were royalty! Kimiko told me later that it was better than any dinner that any of them had been to, even in Japan! 

Our limo driver picked us up on time and returned us to the hotel. I suggested to the girls that we change into comfortable clothes and they could come up to my room where I would have dessert waiting for them. Being in a business class room meant that I had a small balcony that we could lounge on to enjoy the evening breezes.

As they departed for their room, I asked the concierge to send up a bottle of champagne and a bowl of fresh strawberries. I also walked over to the hotel florist and picked up three rose buds before returning to my room. 

I managed to change into shorts and an aloha shirt before Kimiko, Ai and Mikan arrived. As they entered, I gave each of them a rose and a kiss on the cheek; except Kimiko got a kiss on her lips! The three of them glowed and it wasn't from the day in the sun! Shortly after that our dessert arrived and we enjoyed the fresh fruit and champagne on the balcony. 

It must have been close to ten when Ai and Mikan excused themselves. Kimiko must have clued them into where she was staying that night as they left without batting an eye.

I turned to Kimiko and she slid into my arms, "Anata, you are first man for me. I trust you take care of me. Please?"

"Kimiko, I promise to be gentle and to love you." No further words were needed as we undressed each other. Slowly, we helped each other undo each garment until we were both naked. We embraced for the first time without any clothes between us! The feeling of her body against mine made me hard with desire! I could see her lust for me burning in her eyes as well! 

I hugged her to me, trapping my erection against her pubic mound. She raised one leg and wrapped it around my waist, exposing her most private place to my hard cock! With one hand, she grasped my erection and rubbed it up against the lips of her pussy, "Anata ...... please ......" she gasped! 

I picked her up and carried her over to the bed. I snatched the covers back and laid her on her back. She reached up with her hands, beckoning me to join her! I slid in next to her, as we embraced and kissed softly at first, then more passionately as our emotions built! 

I fondled her breasts and gently rolled her nipples between my fingers. She moaned with my caresses as her excitement grew. I kissed her breasts and tongued their sides before taking each nipple into my month to suckle and lightly drag my teeth over them. That set her off with her first orgasm of the night! She exhaled loudly, "ANATA!! Oh!!" 

I hugged her tightly to me while she slowly recovered from her orgasm. Her face was flush and her nipples rock hard as she hugged me back. "Anata, ...... thank you.... please make love to me ......."

I ran my finger tips down through the lips of her pussy and found her wet and ready to take me. I took her hand and lifted my torso enough to guide her hand to my hard cock. She grasped my erection and slid it up and down her slit several times before centering it in her vaginal opening. 

She gazed into my eyes as I slowly entered her. As the head of my penis spread her inner lips, I could see Kimiko's arousal build. Knowing that I would be her first, I slowly rocked back and forth, slowly making my way into her depths. I must have been inside her by about an inch when I came across her maiden head. 

Kimiko felt me press upon it and hugged me tightly, expecting the pain. I drew back a little then pressed forward quickly, taking her virginity with a single thrust. Kimiko hugged me tighter when the sharp pain hit her. Thankfully it quickly subsided and she was smiling at me. 

"Anata, I feel you inside me. You feel good inside me. Oh ...... anata ........" she whispered. 

I slowly pressed into her until my pelvis bore down on her pubic mound and her clit. I slowly rubbed myself against her clit causing Kimiko to moan loudly! "Anata, please make love to me." 

I began to slowly thrust my length into her steamy depths, then slowly withdraw until only the very tip of my erection remained within her, only to thrust once again into her depths! We went on and on until Kimiko could stand it no longer and came with a loud scream! 

I felt her pussy clamp down on my cock which threw me off my cliff! I could feel my orgasm build in my balls, then through the base of my cock before it erupted to wash the walls of Kimiko's womb with my sperm! As I hadn't been with anyone in a long time, I ejaculated a huge amount of semen into her! She told me later that feeling my cock swell and spurting my cum in her gave her another orgasm! 

As we lay in coital bliss, savoring the feeling of each other's love, I voiced my love for her. "Kimiko, I do love you. This is so sudden but I really do. This is not a one time thing for me .......... I hope you love me too."

"Anata, I love you also, but at end of week, I will go home. What do we do?" There were tears in her eyes as she said this.

"Do you love me enough to be my wife?"

She drew back and looked me in my eyes, "Anata, are you sure? You know little of me."

"Yes. I am sure. The little I know of you is all I need to know. I know I love you. Please be my wife."

Kimiko cried softly and smiled at me. We kissed before she replied, "Anata, I would be honored to be your wife but you must first ask my father for his permission." 

"Thank you," I whispered. "You do me great honor to be my wife. I would like to return to Japan with you if that's ok with you?" 

We made love again before sleep finally claimed us. There was no lust this time. Only tender love for each other. The orgasms we shared that time were muted however were so meaningful. As I came in her, Kimiko hugged me tightly and whispered that I would be her only lover for life.

----------------

We woke up the next morning and showered together. Kimiko was sore and tender from our love making the night before, so we satisfied ourselves by hugging and caressing each other. I think I enjoyed the closeness of our embraces as much as I did making love with Kimiko.

It was about seven thirty in the morning when I walked Kimiko down to her room. Ai and Mikan had already gotten up and were dressing when Kimiko walked in. I don't know what they talked about in their room after I left them, however Ai and Mikan had Kimiko by her arms when I met them in the lobby a few minutes later! They all had big smiles on their faces! 

Ai was the first to speak, "Todd-san, may I call you otootosan (brother)?" 

"Very soon, I hope, Ai-chan." I replied. Ai and Mikan clapped their hands and hugged Kimiko. 

We had breakfast in the hotel restaurant which enabled us to get a head start on the day. I told the girls that we would do a little shopping this morning then we would return to the hotel to dress for the afternoon and evening. So we were dressed casually when we left. I was wearing shorts and a golf shirt while Kimiko, Ai and Mikan were wearing blue jeans and t-shirts. 

Our first stop was at a jewelry store in the Ala Moana Shopping Center. As we entered the store, Kimiko's eyes grew large!

"Anata, why we here?" she asked.

"Kimi-chan, in America when a man asks a women to be his wife and she accepts, it is customary for the man to give his wife to be a ring." Kimiko was tearing up already! 

"Anata, ..." and she hugged me. 

We walked over to the jewelry counter and gazed at the engagement rings on display. 

"Honey, what would you like to wear?"

"Anata, these very expensive! Simple ring is ok."

"Please don't worry about the price. I want you to have a ring that will symbolize my love for you forever." 

A sales clerk noticed us looking at the rings and walked over to see if she could show us anything that might be of interest. She asked about the type of stone and whether Kimiko liked a small stone or large one. Then the type of gold; whether a white gold or yellow gold band would be preferable. Kimiko wasn't sure of what she liked so asked to see an assortment. 

The sales clerk then asked about price range. Kimiko again voiced her concern over price but I told the sales clerk not to worry about price but to just show us what she had.

To her credit, the sales clerk didn't bat an eye as she brought out several trays of rings. I could see that the price tag on some of them were in the five figure range so I knew she wasn't holding back on showing us their good stuff. Being dressed casually, I was kind of worried that she would think that we wouldn't be able to afford the high end stuff.

Kimiko took a look at a number of rings before she settled on a two carat diamond set in a yellow gold mounting surrounded by another carat of small diamonds arranged like a halo. It was a stunning ring! The light in the room was captured and reflected out in an array of colors! She showed it to Ai and Mikan and they both thought that it was the most beautiful ring that they ever saw.

Before she could take a look at the price, I asked the clerk if Kimiko could try it on. The clerk took off the price tag so it wouldn't get in the way as Kimiko placed it on her finger. And it fit perfectly. 

"Anata, this beautiful ring but I think very expensive. Perhaps something else would be better." 

"No Kimiko. Do you like this ring?"

"Yes but I think very expensive Todd."

I kissed her, "then you shall have it." I took out my charge card and handed it to the sales clerk who nonchalantly rang it up without batting an eye! I took a look at the price when the clerk returned with the sales slip for my signature! Well let me just tell you that I could have purchased a Mercedes Benz for the amount of money that I paid. But you know what? I can tell you without a question that buying that ring was next to the best thing that I have ever done! I think the best was asking Kimiko to be my wife!

The sales clerk smiled at us and told Kimiko, "you have a very special man here. Not many men would give their woman a ring like this."

Kimiko responded, "yes, thank you. I think Todd very special, yes." with a smile on her lips and a gleam in her eye! 

"May I?" I asked as I took the ring, then slowly slid it on Kimiko's finger. There were tears in her eyes as she looked at the ring and then kissed me. 

Ai and Mikan were also caught up in the emotion of the event as tears streamed down their faces also! The tissues came flying over the counter as the sales clerk handed them out to the three! I guess this happens from time to time in their store! 

Well, we finally managed to have the girls settle down and compose themselves. However it didn't take much for them to get emotional all over again. I found that out just before we left the store, or I should say we tried to leave the store. I made the mistake of telling Kimiko how beautiful she looked and how she made me so happy! And she cried and hugged me again! That cause Ai and Mikan to start sniffling too! At least everyone was crying because they were happy! 

After the jewelry store, we stopped at a couple of women's clothing stores as Kimiko and Mikan needed to pick up something nice to wear for that evening at the Polynesian Cultural Center. Although we didn't need to dress up, they thought that it would be nice to at least wear another sun dress or something like it. So we stopped in at least four stores before they found dresses that they liked. 

It was close to mid-day by now so we headed off to find a restaurant. I thought to try the Mariposa which is located on the top floor of the Neiman Marcus store at the shopping center. Great food, but outrageous prices! Well, after all, it was in Neiman Marcus!

We returned to the hotel where the three went up to their room to shower and change for our trip out to the Polynesian Cultural Center. I quickly showered and dressed in a pair of dress slacks and another aloha shirt. I rang Kimiko's room where I caught Ai as Kimiko was taking a shower. I got the details of their return flight reservations from Ai.

I called the concierge to let them know that I would be checking out in several days and also asked if he could arrange to book me on the same flight and upgrade Kimiko's, Ai's and Mikan's reservations so we could all sit together in Business Class. They said that they'd take care of everything and let me know as soon as they could confirm our reservatons with the airlines. 

With that in the works, I called Kimiko's room to find out when they would be ready. This time Kimiko answered and told me that Ai was now in the shower so it would be at least another half hour. I told them not to rush since we had all afternoon to get there. So I went down to the lobby and had the valet bring my car around and have it waiting. 

While I was waiting, a lady at the concierge desk asked if I was the one who called in the request for flight reservations to Japan. I confirmed that. She basically told me that in order to book it that they would need to have my passport number. 

I don't know why but I always travel with my passport. I guess it's just an old habit of mine. So I raced back upstairs and retrieved my passport and took it down to the concierge. They called the airlines and confirmed our reservations. Ok, we're cooking now! 

Just as the concierge was giving me back my passport, Kimiko, Ai and Mikan came out of the elevator like a breath of fresh air! And Kimiko's ring sparkled! As they walked over to greet me, they turned almost every male head in the lobby! I know if I were them, I would be telling myself, 'Wow, who were those knock out women?' 

Kimiko took my arm and kissed me on my cheek. "Anata, ogenki desuka (Dear, how are you)?" she asked?

"Quite fine Kimi-chan! Genki desu!" I smiled in return. 

Ai and Mikan came over and planted light kisses on my cheek as well. I'm pretty sure that I heard groans throughout the lobby when they did that! How lucky can a guy get than to have these three gorgeous asian women greet him with a kiss?

It took us about an hour to drive out to the Polynesian Cultural Center. When we got there, Kimiko was stunned by the prices. However I again told her not to worry as I got us a 'special deal.' So I led them again to the group tour window and asked the attendant whether she was holding any tickets for a Kawaguchi party. Again the mysterious tickets appeared without any fanfare and we were let in. 

By now Kimiko was beginning to suspect that I was not being entirely truthful of what I was. And so confronted me.

"Anata, you must tell me how you can buy such expensive ring for me. Then get expensive tickets for us. I hope you are not yakuza (gangster). Please anata, no secrets between us, ok?"

"Kimi-chan, you are right. Please understand that I wanted to make sure that you were attracted to me because of who I was and not because of how much money I have. Ok?"

"Anata, I love you. I love how you treat me with respect and kindness. I love how you treat my cousin and my friend. I know you only short time, but I know you very good man. I don't care if you rich or poor. I love you that I know." 

"Yes, I can see that Kimi-chan. So let's find a place to sit and have coffee while I tell you my life." And so Kimiko, Ai and Mikan became privy to my 'forced retirement' from my old company and my subsequent windfall from selling off an old investment. 

"So you see Kimi-chan, I am just a simple man who was very fortunate. I now have more money than I will ever need in my life. Before I was lonesome but now I have you in my life. I am not lonesome any more. I just want to make you happy now Kimi-chan." 

She leaned over and kissed me. "You are very important part of me now. Please, always, no secrets, ok?" 

"Yes dear. Between you and me, no secrets. But I must ask that you, and Ai and Mikan (as I looked at them also), please keep my fortune a secret. Sometimes being rich makes you a target for others." And I kissed her to seal my promise. 

Now that was out in the open, Kimiko felt more comfortable. I wasn't aware that she thought that I could have been connected to organized crime however I suppose that it wasn't a far stretch of the imagination when you consider that in Japan, a lot of rich people were either from a wealthy family or were connected to the yakuza.




Kimiko Ch. 01



We went on to tour the Polynesian Cultural Center for the rest of the afternoon and had a front row table for dinner and the show that went along with it. The girls enjoyed themselves immensely! It was a great evening. 

All too soon the show was over and we made our way back to my car. We climbed back in and Kimiko settled herself next to me again, using my shoulder as a pillow. The emotional high of the choosing her ring then spending the afternoon the afternoon playing tourist had tired her out. She napped on the drive back to our hotel. Halfway back I looked in my rear view mirror and found both Ai and Mikan also asleep in the back seat.

We returned to the hotel by ten that night. Kimiko and I bade Ai and Mikan good night and went up to my room. 

As we entered my room, Kimiko asked, "Anata, would you bathe with me?" 

So we undressed each other. As I took Kimiko's bra and panties off, I stood back and gazed at her nude body. She became a little self conscious and asked, "Anata, am I pleasing to you?" 

"Kimi-chan, you are the most beautiful woman in the world!" 

She blushed and walked over to me. "Anata, I give myself to you, my husband to be." She put her arms around me as I hugged her tightly to me and we kissed. 

I took her hand and led her to the bath where we bathed. Kimiko washed my body while I washed hers. After we were done, I closed the drain and filled the tub with hot water and we settled in for a soak; my back to the tub and Kimiko sat between my legs, with her back against my chest.

The hot water gradually rose till the tub was full. While it wasn't full enough to cover us completely, it was full enough to enable the hot water to sooth our tired bodies. I put my arms around Kimiko's waist while her rear end pushed up against my erection.

"Anata, I feel you. You want me, yes?"

"Very much so Kimi-chan. I love you, aishite imasu." 

With that, Kimiko turned around to face me in the tub, then grasped my hard cock and slowly sat down on it until our pelvic mounds were pressing hard against the other. She put her arms around me neck and straddled my waist, while I wrapped my arms around her back. And we kissed; a long, passionate kiss that only lovers would know. 

While we didn't do much more than that in the bath, the intimacy of the moment helped to prepare ourselves for our love making just a short while later as Kimiko rode me in our bed to her screaming orgasm! She surprised herself that she would be so loud when she came!

As we rested, Kimiko asked how I felt about children.

"Kimi-chan, I would like to have children. How do you feel?"

"I think we will have beautiful children. Do you want two or three children?"

"I think we will have as many children as you want." 

Kimiko smiled at me, "I think we will have many children." as she straddled me and rubbed her pussy lips against my building erection! "Yes, many children!" 

----------------

The next morning as we woke up, I told Kimiko that I had made arrangements to fly back with them. I asked if we could meet her family? She thought it over and said that she should call them first so that they would be prepared to meet me. 

"Anata, my father very understanding man. He know that I am not young woman anymore so difficult to find husband."

"Why would it be difficult for you? You are still very young and very beautiful."

Kimiko giggled, "My husband to be, very kind but doesn't see good!"

She went on, "In Japan, most young women married before they twenty five. Unless they don't want man or are not nice, they marry by that age. I am much older so more difficult to find good husband. Japanese man want young girl."

"But you are young yet Kimiko. Maybe twenty eight years old?" I guessed.

"Thank you Todd, but your wife to be is thirty three. So I not expect to find husband." 

"But you had to take care of your family Kimi-chan."

"Yes, I make decision to take care of my father, brother and Ai. They most important to me. But now you most important to me also." 

"Thank you Kimi-chan. You most important to me, too."

She moved to lay herself on me and we kissed softly. "I think I like very much to be your wife." she said with a smile. 

I turned us over to put Kimiko on her back then moved over her to ravage her beautiful body before she placed me at her entrance. As I slowly moved into her private space reserved now only for me, Kimiko sighed and closed her eyes to absorb the feelings of bliss that radiated from our coupling! "Anata ......" she sighed as I filled her once more.

----------------

After breakfast that morning we loaded up my car with beach mats and drove over to Hanauma Bay. It is a public beach located in a conservation area so no fishing has been allowed there for a long time. The sea life there had grown accustomed to having humans around so could be frequently found swimming along with human swimmers. 

We rented snorkeling equipment when we got there and went out to explore the reefs located just offshore. The girls were amazed by how tame the reef fishes were. After about an hour in the water, we returned to shore and did a little sunbathing. 

Mikan asked Kimiko when we would be married. Kimiko responded, "We not talk about it yet. First must ask otoosan (father)."

"Your otoosan will be ok!" Mikan smiled. "He want you to be happy."

"I think so too, but must ask otoosan first. If he ok, then Todd-san and I discuss."

"Will you marry in Osaka?"

"Anata? Do you want to marry me in Japan?"

"Kimi-chan, I think it would be important to you to be married with your family and friends there with us. So yes, let's be married in Osaka. And let's also have small party for my friends and family in California after so they can meet you."

"Thank you." she smiled and put her hand to my cheek. "You are special man. I am lucky girl." And she kissed me.

We grabbed sandwiches and soft drinks from a concession stand and had a light lunch on the beach. On the way back, we stopped at another shopping mall where the girls picked up small gifts to take back with them for friends and family. 

I asked Kimiko what I could take as a gift for her father and brother. She suggested that I give them some Kona Coffee. Coffee in Japan is a big thing. So I picked up a couple of large bags of pure Kona Coffee and a couple of bags of roasted macadamia nuts also. 

As we drove back to our hotel, I informed the girls that we would be leaving the hotel around 7:30 the next morning for our special trip. That it would involve a visit to a beautiful beach that not many people visited. So to dress appropriately. Swim wear and sandals with a light jacket would be fine.

We had a few minutes so Kimiko called home from our room. She spoke with her father to let him know that they were having such a good time and to also let him know that she was bringing a guest home to meet him. I couldn't catch most of her conversation however Kimiko kept smiling so I think the conversation must have gone well.

Afterwards she explained that she told her father that she was bringing home someone very important to her. She said her father guessed from her tone of voice that the person, me, was more than very important. He asked if she met someone special in Hawaii. And she replied that yes, and 'he' was. Kimiko said that her father seemed happy for her so we could hope for a favorable response from him.

I asked Kimiko if I should arrange for a hotel room nearby. She replied, only if her father objects to us sleeping together. But not to worry about it now. 

We visited a nearby sushi bar and had a light dinner. On the way back to our hotel, Kimiko asked if she could move her things to my room. "Anata, I think I want to be with my husband to be all time. Is ok with you?"

I kissed her, "Is very ok! I want to be with my wife to be all the time also." So we moved her suitcase into my room that evening. 

As we left Ai and Mikan in their room, I suggested that we meet for breakfast at 6:30 in the hotel's coffee shop. That would give us enough time for a light breakfast before we left for the heliport.

Kimiko and I returned to our room and made love again. As we rested, she told me, "I think I will like making our children. Now practice but later for real!" with a smile! 

I told her of our trip to Napali the next morning. Kimiko hugged me. "Anata, thank you for taking such good care of us. You make this trip so good for us." As she lifted her hand to stroke my face, her engagement ring sparkled in the moonlight that filtered into our room. "And you make me very happy woman also. I am very lucky to find you."

"No more lucky than I am in finding you, Kimi-chan." 

"Anata, you are hatsukoi, my first love. You are my aijin, my lover." 

"As you are also Kimi-chan, you are my hatsukoi and aijin also!" That was true for me also. All the others were not meaningful. Kimiko was the only one to ignite that spark of caring and longing in me.

We made love again before falling asleep in each other's arms. 

----------------

We met up with Ai and Mikan at the coffee shop the next morning as arranged. After a quick breakfast, we picked up our picnic lunch from the concierge, and returned to our rooms to retrieve our things. We met back in the lobby where we caught a cab to take us to the heliport. The chopper was already there, waiting for our arrival.

Ai and Mikan were surprised but Kimiko smiled and told them that they were in for a treat. To just appreciate my treat for them. 

The pilot got us all buckled in and our things stored. He had us all don headsets so we could listen in as he narrated our trip to Napali. We could also listen into his chatter with the local flight controller as he requested and received flight clearance and other instructions throughout the flight.

The flight out was very enjoyable although the stretch over the open ocean was a little boring. Nothing much to see. But the pilot made good time and we were over Kauai very quickly. The pilot flew close to the coastline where he pointed out places of interest such as the bay where Elvis Presley's Blue Hawaii was filmed. Where Charro built her home, and where other celebrities resided. 

We were quickly coming up to Napali when he flew out towards the open ocean. The vantage point looking back to the beach enabled us to view the entire stretch of nearly pristine sand along with a small waterfall which fell to a small pond that emptied into the ocean. He explained that because of its remoteness, that very few people came here.

He landed just uphill of the beach in a small clearing. As we deplaned, he handed me a walky-talky saying that we could get in touch with him with it if needed. But that otherwise, he would be back for us around three that afternoon. 

With his departure, we were left to our own. At first, I felt a little uncomfortable without the noises of civilization around us. But I quickly became accustomed to hearing the sound of the breaking surf, the sound of the light breeze as it moved through the surrounding trees and bushes, and the chattering of the birds that seemed to be around us. 

As the sun was out if all of its glory, I suggested that we apply our sun tan lotion so we wouldn't burn. Ai and Mikan did each other while Kimiko and I did ourselves. 

The waterfall seemed like an interesting place to set up as our temporary camp site so we carried our things there. The waterfall dropped about twenty or thirty feet to a small pond. The pond itself emptied to the ocean via a small stream. Ai ventured into the pond and we soon found ourselves in it as well. Luxuriating in the cool waters the girls swam and splashed water at each other. We alternated all day between sun bathing and exploring the beach, and jumping in the pond to cool off. 

As our time on the coast drew to a close, I told Kimiko, "We have to come back and visit this place again." 

She agreed, "Hai. We shall bring our children!" I looked at her bright expectant smile! "Yes we shall!" I agreed.

As this was our last day in Hawaii, I asked Kimiko if she would like the experience of making love on the beach. She blushed, however I could see that she was excited by the idea. She told Ai and Mikan that we were going to walk along the beach for awhile so not to worry. We left them at the pond where they continued to sun bath and swim. 

Kimiko and I walked down to the shoreline and about a hundred yards away before we lost site of the pond. We looked back often to gauge when we would be out of site of Ai and Mikan. Kimiko looked around us and could not see anyone where ever she looked. 

"Anata, I want make love to you all the time...... I want you in me always." She put her hands to my waist and slowly lowered my swim shorts. As my erection was uncovered, she took me in her hand and kissed the head of my hard cock. Slowly tonguing me, she then mouthed me, slowly stroking me in the process. It felt so good! 

Sooner than I wanted, I felt my orgasm approaching. Not wanting to surprise her, I warned her, "Kimi-chan! You must stop or I will cum in your mouth!" 

"Anata, please cum in my mouth. I want taste you." and she again took me in her mouth and stroked me firmly to my finish! My balls unloaded so much semen that she gagged temporarily on it before she swallowed hungrily! 

I helped Kimiko to her feet and kissed her soundly. "Thank you Kimi-chan. You are my aijin forever!" She smiled and began to take off her bikini. "Please Kimi-chan, let me." 

I slowly untied her bikini top and let it fall to the sand. Her nipples were hard with her arousal! I kissed and suckled them until Kimiko's knees began to buckle. "Oh Todd! Feel so good!" she moaned as her orgasm hit! "Oh!" 

I hugged her to me while she regained her composure. Then I knelt to slide her bikini bottom off, revealing her glistening pussy to me. 

As she stepped out of her bikini bottom, I helped her drape one leg over my shoulder. Kimiko used my head to balance her as I licked her wet pussy. Slowly working my tongue into her slit, I lapped up her juices that began to flow. Her inner lips became flush with her excitement and she moaned loudly when I took her clit between my lips and pressed my tongue against it, slowly working it side to side! She came again, moaning loudly and grabbing my hair to retain her balance! 

When she could stand on her own, I stood up and took our bathing suits in hand and walked up the beach to a grassy area. We lay down and Kimiko rode me to another climax, this time both of us coming. Kimiko screamed so loudly that I'm sure that Ai and Mikan must have heard her! 

As we lay on the grass, Kimiko confided to me, "Anata, you make me whole woman. I am most happy. I love you in me." I felt the same way. She made me a whole person. 

We dressed in our swim suits and went down to the ocean where we cleaned up a little and then rejoined Ai and Mikan. Shortly thereafter, our helicopter ride appeared to take us back to Honolulu. We had an early dinner and called it a night as we would need to be up early the next morning to pack and get ourselves to the airport. 

We left Ai and Mikan at their room around 8:30 that night and we went directly to our room. Kimiko was tired so we just showered and went to bed. I have to admit, I was a little tired also. As I lay in bed, I couldn't help but think about what had happened to me this week! I was having a great time, and it was all because I had the great fortune to meet Kimiko. 

Kimiko turned to me and placed her head on my shoulder. "Anata, will you really be coming home with me?"

"Yes Kimi-chan. I want you as my wife. I love you very much."

She raised her head to gaze into my eyes, "Anata, I want you to know that I may not always say this but please know that I always love you. Sometimes hard for me to remember. We not used to saying this. But I love you." 

I placed my hand on the back of her head and guided her down to my lips. As our lips joined, I opened mine to enable my tongue to grace her lips. In response, she opened hers and allowed our tongues to meet and caress each other. 

----------------

We slept in each other's embrace that night and woke early the next morning. I lay beside Kimiko watching the rise and fall of her breasts as she continued to sleep beside me. I felt so happy to have her by me. I leaned over and kissed her lips softly. She moaned in response. "Anata," she whispered, "love me please." So we did. We made soft, tender love. 

We did not have sex the night before so my body had stored up a full supply of my cum. When I orgasmed, I ejaculated so much cum that it leaked out of Kimiko's pussy as I deflated! Kimiko was embarrassed because of the size of the wet spot we left behind. But then she said that she was also happy because she would feel my cum in her on the trip back home. We rose to shower and finish packing before we had to meet Ai and Mikan for breakfast and our ride to the airport.

At breakfast, Ai and Mikan informed us that they were ready to go and just needed to check out. We were pretty much the same way so we planned to check out after a last minute check on our rooms and meet back in the lobby by the concierge desk. 

The valet retrieved my car and piled our luggage in it. Luckily all of our bags fit. I was worried for a moment as I saw the number of bags that Ai and Mikan had, but they all fit. I gassed up the car on the way to the airport and turned the rental in. Their shuttle took us over to the JAL counter where we checked in. Luckily a porter was available to help us with our bags.

We sailed through the agricultural inspection without a problem. As we approached the check in line, Ai and Mikan made for the general boarding line. However I corralled them and led the group to the first class line. 

"Anata? Did you change our tickets?" Kimiko asked with a smile.

I smiled and bowed slightly. She kissed me. "Anata, you spoil us." 

We checked in and found that we had been assigned to the front row of the aircraft which had two seats on each side. The ride to Osaka was quiet and restful. Kimiko napped a little using my shoulder as her pillow. I could see that Ai and Mikan were also tired from their week and were napping also. 

Shortly before landing, the stewardess came through the cabin handing out customs declaration forms. As we filled them out, Ai laughed and told Kimiko that she might have to declare that she's bringing me home! Mikan slapped Ai playfully on her arm but she still joined in the laughter. 

The stewardess was coming around collecting the forms and caught part of the conversation. She asked Kimiko if she needed help filling out her form. Kimiko responded that her cousin was just teasing as she was bringing home her fiancé. The stewardess congratulated her and was impressed by Kimiko's ring when she showed it to her. That induced her to bring out some complimentary champagne for all of us!

Landing at Kansai Airport in Osaka was a non-event. We deplaned and went through customs then followed everyone to baggage claim. We retrieved our bags and on the way out, I converted some US currency to Japanese yen at a foreign exchange counter.

As we got out to the sidewalk, Kimiko waved to someone and I saw a young man wave back. "My ototo (younger brother). His name Tetsuo." Kimiko explained. 

Tetsuo pulled up in a van and piled all of our luggage in. Kimiko introduced us and Tetsuo smiled, "I pleased to meet you. My father says my sister very happy so you must be good man for her. We hope you make her happy." 

I liked Tetsuo immediately. We hopped in and Tetsuo took off for their district. If you've never driven in Japan, you need to be prepared for narrow roads and kamikaze drivers! It can leave you a nervous wreck until you become accustomed to their traffic.




Kimiko Ch. 01



Anyway, Tetsuo dropped off Mikan first and we left her shouting our goodbyes! We were soon at their home. Tetsuo pulled into their compound and her father was there to greet the two girls. He hugged them with large smiles then turned to me with a similar smile and extended his hand, "Ohaiyo gozaimasu! Welcome to our home."



Kimiko Ch. 02



Please read the first chapter of my life with Kimiko!

-------------------- 

"Ohaiyo gozaimasu (Welcome) to our home!" her father called out to me as he extended his hand in greeting. Any apprehension that I may have had about meeting him evaporated into the air! I had come to Osaka to meet the rest of Kimiko's family and seek her father's approval. Kimiko's brother, Tetsuo, had picked us up at the airport and driven us home. Although we had just met a short time ago, we had fallen seriously in love and had committed ourselves to each other.

"Otoosan (father), this is Kawaguchi Todd-san. Anata, this is my otoosan, Kasamoto Genzo."

I started to bow out of respect for him but Genzo interrupted me by coming to me and hugging me. "Thank you for taking care my daughters! I worried when Ai-chan say that travel agent quit. But after she and Kimiko tell me how you look after them, I not worry so much then."

"Kasamoto-san ...." I started but again was interrupted by Genzo.

"So -- so, I think you call me otoosan also, nee (ok)?" and he smiled at me and Kimiko. 

"Come inside first, then we talk. Ok?"

Tetsuo and I hustled all of our bags into their home. Kimiko decided to take the question of sleeping arrangements directly at her father and asked Tetsuo to take my bag to her room. Her father raised his eyebrows at Kimiko, then looked at me for a moment. I wasn't sure of what he was going to say. But he finally smiled. 

"If you to marry my daughter, then it is proper that you share same bed. Just don't make too much noise, nee?" Kimiko turned a bright shade of pink while Ai and Tetsuo laughed so much that I think they even cried!

I was relieved and so was Kimiko. Genzo took her hands and spoke with her, "Kimi-chan, you are grown up so you make decisions for yourself, ok? You do not need my approval."

"Otoosan," I chimed in, "but we still want your blessing before we wed. It is important to Kimiko and to me that you approve."

Genzo looked me straight in the eyes and said, "then we must know you better." I liked his direct manner. Straight and no nonsense.

So we unpacked and changed into jeans and t-shirts. Kimiko told me that she and Ai needed to shop for groceries. Knowing her father and brother, she figured that they probably ate out each night that she and Ai were away! While they shopped, she hoped that I would spend some time with her dad. I thought it was a good idea also. 

Genzo was waiting as we left Kimiko's room. "Todd-san, come." He and Tetsuo took me to their neighborhood bar where we found a convenient table and drank beer and sake the rest of the afternoon! 

I discovered that Genzo had been an electronic engineer for many years. He had recently retired as he had reached the mandatory retirement age for his company. While he wanted to stay active, his company's policy prevented him from continuing on. So he free lanced from time to time doing the odd engineering job that came his way. 

He was one of the engineers that had worked on a prototype of the MP3 player several years ago. And he had previously worked on communication equipment framework. So he took an interest in my work as a technology designer. 

"Hm, Todd-san. Interesting work you do." 

Tetsuo had followed in his father's footsteps and was also an electronic engineer. However having just graduated from school, he was still in the infancy stage of his career and had much to experience. He listened with great interest to the stories that his father and I had to share.

I lost track of the number of beers and sake's we consumed but soon Genzo was telling us that we should be getting home before Kimiko and Ai became mad with us for staying out so long! My body clock was thrown off by the different time zones so I had no appreciation for how late it had become. I looked at the clock above the bar and it was 7:00pm. Oh boy! They might just have a reason to be upset!

We walked back to their home and were greeted by Ai who berated her father for staying out so long. Kimiko was in the kitchen and I could tell she wasn't necessarily happy either, however asked her father instead, "Otoosan, what do you think of Todd-san now?"

"Kimi-chan, you have my approval! Your husband to be is good man!"

Kimiko hugged her father, "thank you otoosan. Is important to me that you like Todd." 

"Wakata! (I understand.) He is good man. You chose good!" 

With that we had dinner. What a feast! Kimiko and Ai had prepared a dinner in a large, communal hot bowl that they called a 'yabemono.' Lots of seafood, vegetables, noodles, tofu and other stuff in a steaming, clear fish broth laced with soy sauce and sake. Simply delicious! 

Kimiko served her father and brother first, then myself and Ai. I waited until she finished serving herself before I began to eat. Genzo observed this and told Tetsuo, "American style, many Japanese women like. You learn too, ok? Show respect for woman."

Ai and Kimiko laughed! A few moments latter Tetsuo caught on to what his father was talking about and he laughed also. "You trying to marry me off quickly, otoosan?"

"No, just make sure you don't scare good woman away! Young man sometimes bakatare (fool)!" We all had a good laugh! 

After dinner, I helped Ai and Kimiko clean up the kitchen while Genzo and Tetsuo bathed. Then Ai bathed while Kimiko and I relaxed with her father and brother. I used the opportunity to give them the Kona Coffee and Macadamia Nuts that I had picked up for them in Hawaii. Genzo apparently liked the coffee and mac nuts very much and said he would invite his friends over to enjoy both the next weekend. 

Kimiko told them of our trip to Sea Life Park, and the Waikiki Aquarium. She had just started on our dinner at the Miyako Restaurant when Ai returned. 

"Otoosan, you should see restaurant!" Ai exclaimed! "We sat on tatami (straw floor mats) and watched the ocean and sun set! It was so kirei (beautiful)! And the food! So good!" Kimiko and I excused ourselves to bathe. We let Ai continue the story of their trip. 

Taking a pair of yukata's (light robes) with us, Kimiko took my hand and led me to their o-furo or bath house. It was outside of the main house and was a simple structure. I recalled my grandmother's o-furo and it was very similar in nature. An open floor where one actually washed and rinsed, then a hot water tub where you could soak. 

We entered the bath house and undressed. Kimiko came to me and we embraced and kissed.

"Anata (dear), I missed your touch. It's too long since you hold me." Kimiko whispered.

"Kimi-chan, I missed you also." as I hugged her nude body to mine. She tilted her head to me and we kissed softly, her tongue searching for mine. 

"Anata, please lie down, I need you in me."

I laid down on the floor while Kimiko mounted me! As she eased down on my hard cock, her eyes closed and her head slumped forward. "Oh Todd, come in me, please....."

She moved slowly up and down my body while I thrust up into her's. We must have both been anticipating our coupling eagerly as we both came quickly! 

"Anata ....." Kimiko whispered as she slowly collapsed on my chest. I hugged her limp frame to me and kissed her softly while she recovered. My cock deflated and it slowly slid out of her, releasing our combined fluids to the floor of the bath house. 

We eventually finished washing ourselves and then soaked in the hot tub. It felt so good to sit in the hot tub, letting the heat wash away all our aches and pains. Plus it also felt great to have Kimiko straddling my lap, hugging me with her arms around me, our foreheads touching. 

"Anata, otoosan likes you."

"Your father is a good man, Kimi-chan. He cares for all of you. I like him very much." 

"Anata, when we marry, where we live?"

"Where do you want to live? I have a home in California that we can live in. Perhaps we can also buy a home here and live here part time? What do you think?"

"I like idea but home here in Osaka very expensive."

"How much Kimi-chan?"

"I think for house maybe ¥50,000,000 or more? Very expensive." 

I did the quick math at about 100 yen to the dollar and came out with $500,000. Ok, my investments could cover that. "Ok, we can buy." I told Kimiko.

"Honto? (really?)" she appeared a little surprised. 

"Yes. I think you would like to be near to your family sometimes? Shall we start looking tomorrow?"

Kimiko smiled at me, then lifted herself slightly while she inserted my hard cock into her. Settling down on me, she kissed me, "you are perfect man."

By the time we returned to the main house, Tetsuo and Genzo had already gone to bed. Ai had waited up for us. 

"Ani (older brother)," she addressed me, "I want thank you for taking care us. We had many good times, we shall remember always." 

"Ai-chan, I enjoyed taking care of the three of you also! And best of all, I will enjoy taking care of Kimi-chan now." 

Ai hugged Kimiko and left us. Kimiko led me to her bedroom which was next to her dad's. We could hear him snoring until we shut her bedroom door. Kimiko giggled as she commented, "Otoosan loud when he drink. I hope you not loud too?"

I drew back the futon (heavy quilt) on her bed while she undressed. She placed a towel on the bed and slipped into the bed on top of it. She waited for me to undress and lay down beside her, before she covered us with the futon.

"Anata, we must be quiet tonight, ok? Not good if otoosan hear us, ok?" she said as she smiled. "but not mean we not make love, just must be quiet, ok?" as she lay on her back and spread her legs, inviting me on top of her!

We made love several times, each time as quietly as we could. Kimiko's pussy was filled to overflowing with my cum and her juices before we slept. Ah, the reason for the towel now became clear! So it would catch our juices if they should run out of Kimiko, which they did! 

-------------------- 

The next morning Kimiko woke me with a gentle kiss. "Anata, time wake up," she whispered to me as she rubbed my chest. 

I kissed her back, "Good morning my beautiful wife to be!" She looked so radiant and happy! 

We dressed and made our way to their kitchen. Life at their house seemed to revolve around their kitchen. Ai was already there catching up on an accumulation of newspapers and drinking coffee. She jumped up as we came into the room and poured us coffee as we sat.

"Thank you Ai-chan," I said as we sat.

Ai asked Kimiko what our plans for the day were? Kimiko looked at me, "Anata, would you like see our neighborhood? Maybe we walk a little? Ai-chan, you want to come too?"

Ai agreed quickly, "Maybe Mikan want to come also?" Kimiko nodded her approval. 

Ai served us a light breakfast. It consisted of a bowl of light broth, hot rice sprinkled with seasoned seaweed, and scrambled eggs. Interesting twist; Japanese and American! And it was good.

Ai called Mikan and she happily agreed to join us on our neighborhood walk. Mikan drove over and we set out on foot within the hour. 

Their neighborhood was a mixture of old and new. There were many old residences nestled next to tall condominiums. And there were many small grocery and sundry stores everywhere. We walked into a couple of them and I was surprised to see the selection of things that were available. From what I could tell, you could get just about anything at these stores. 

We happened to pass by a new condominium project that was being built. It was more than half way completed and you could tell that it was going to look pretty nice. On impulse, I asked the girls if we could take a look. They were curious also. Kimiko picked up my interest quickly. 

"Anata, it would be easier to care for than house." 

Ai and Mikan were surprised, but also delighted! They weren't aware that we were already talking about where to live. Kimiko shared with them that we were thinking of living part time in my home in California as well as part time here. They were delighted with the news.

With that piece of information, Ai and Mikan practically dragged us to the show room! We looked at an artist's rendering of what the project will look like once completed and how the rooms would be laid out. I liked the project. A simple design that spoke of low maintenance costs. Each unit came with a covered parking stall, which in Osaka was a premium, and the units could be customized to a certain extent.

Kimiko and I spent a few minutes talking about what we would like to see in a unit. We thought that it would have to be at least three bedrooms, have a living room and kitchen. A sales representative costed it out for us. Surprisingly the unit price came up to ¥35,000,000, approximately US$350,000, but only if we paid cash for it and didn't need financing. Almost like buying a similarly sized unit in San Francisco. 

Ai and Mikan said that it was a bargain. They also shared that there weren't many new projects coming up as there wasn't much land available. Kimiko agreed. She thought that the reason why it was so affordable was because the developers were the original owners of the property so there wasn't a cost to buy the land in the first place. 

I asked the sales rep if we could pick out our unit, even where it was located in the building. She said yes however it was on a first come, first served basis. We looked at the apartment chart and saw that the entire top floor had yet to be sold. The sales rep informed us that there was a premium on those units because they were much larger, had a large balcony that ran the length of the unit, and had a nice view of the city. So I asked her to price a corner unit with all the additions for us. She returned shortly with a figure of ¥60,000,000, about US$600,000.

I asked Kimiko if the unit would be ok for her and she looked at me apprehensively.

"Anata, that lot of money. Is ok with you?"

"As long as you like the apartment."

She took a deep breath, looked at me, then Ai and Mikan, and said, "I like very much."

The sales rep started the paper work and said that I would need to pay at least ¥20,000,000, or US$200,000 now with the balance when it was completed. I told her that I would need to wire the monies in so she provided me with their bank wire instructions. While she and Kimiko talked about a couple of other details, I borrowed Ai's cell phone and called my broker back in California and arranged for the transfer. He promised that the funds would be there in two days. 

The project was scheduled for completion in six months. It seemed like a good time frame to me. The sales rep asked for our names and I informed her that we were to be married in the near future so Kimiko's last name might be changing however we have yet to talk about that! The sales rep became excited with that news and congratulated Kimiko! 

Ai had to show off Kimiko's engagement ring which caused even more excitement. Before we knew it, the entire office had gathered to drool over Kimiko's ring and offer their congratulations! 

We finally managed to finish up the paperwork and leave the sales office, and walked back to Kimiko's and Ai's home. Mikan insisted that we all jump in her car so she could take us somewhere to celebrate! And we did.

Mikan drove us to a nice looking restaurant located about thirty minutes away. Kimiko explained that Mikan's family owned it and that it was a very popular eating place. As we entered, the girls were greeted warmly by the staff there. Then a deep voice boomed out, "So this is the gaijin (foreigner)!" And a large, older man came up to me and shook my hand! 

"Thank you for take care my daughter!" This was Mikan's father. What a bear of a man! He was huge! He turned to Kimiko and hugged her, "And omedetto (congratulations) to you Kimiko! Your father says you chose good!" as he looked at me with a smile plastered on his face.

Kimiko was clearly embarrassed! But I think she liked the attention that she was getting! An older lady ran over to greet the girls. It dawned on my quicklyz that this was Mikan's mother. She took Kimiko's hand and marveled at her ring. We heard her say something to Mikan's father and he must have grumbled back at her. All I heard was a low, throaty mumble and Mikan, Ai, and Kimiko were giggling and Mikan's mother slapped him on his arm! 

He just shrugged his shoulders and smiled at me! Seemed like the universal sign for 'Women, can't live with them, can't live without them!' 

Mikan then piped up that we came for lunch. And her mom promptly led us to a back room close to the kitchen. Now normally in the US, this would indicate that you're not necessarily the most desirable guest in the place. But here, it was so that you could see how your food was being prepared. So it was almost like the restaurant baring its sole to its guest, inviting inspection and approval. The cooks all looked our way and waved or bowed to the girls and me. 

While we were being seated Mikan must have informed her mother that Kimiko and I had just bought into the condominium project that was going up close to Kimiko's and Ai's house. Her mother congratulated Kimiko and then came over to me and said, "You marry good woman. Please take good care Kimiko," with a smile. 

I responded, "Hai! Wakaremasu! (I understand)" That threw here off temporarily until Kimiko explained that I was part Japanese and understood a little of their language. 

"Honto? (really)"

"Hai!" I agreed.

The girls all giggled at Mikan's mother's reaction! With that revelation, it was as if I had become the long lost nephew that came home! The food that came out was so plentiful and tasty! Her mother and father were constantly running in and out to share a comment or two, along with a dish or two for us to sample! Lunch became a feast! All too soon Ai indicated that they had to get home and start preparing dinner for their father and brother. So we bade our farewells and Mikan drove us back.

Back at home, Kimiko wanted to rest for a short while as it was still early in the afternoon. Then later go with Ai to shop and then prepare dinner. Ai agreed. We retired to Kimiko's bedroom for some quiet time.

"Kimi-chan, I enjoyed meeting Mikan's family this morning. Everyone is so nice."

"Hai, they good people. They treat Ai and me like family. Mikan close to us too."

We snuggled in Kimiko's bed; me on my back and Kimiko laying on her side with her head tucked into the crook of my neck, an arm across my chest, and a leg thrown over mine. After a few minutes I could feel Kimiko's rhythmic breathing indicating that she had fallen asleep. I followed her shortly.

After what must have been an hour or so, Kimiko woke and kissed me until I awoke also. 

"Anata, at apartment, you said we should talk about my last name after we marry. Why so?"

"In America, a woman has a choice of whether she wants to take her husband's last name, put the two names together, or keep her last name. I don't know how it is here in Japan so I wanted to talk to you first."

"You mean American wife may keep last name? Or combine name? Why?"

"Some women just want it that way. Others would rather not. What do you think?"

"I think I happy to have my husband's last name. Make me feel part of my husband. I think I like name, Kawaguchi Kimiko. Ok?" 

"Kimi-chan, I only want you to be happy." 

Kimiko smiled at me and kissed me. "Anata, don't spoil me. Maybe little but not too much, please" she whispered before she kissed me again.

We got out of bed, straightened ourselves up a bit, and made our way back to the kitchen. The kitchen was empty so Kimiko figured that Ai was still resting. She put on some hot water and made us some tea.

"Anata, would it be ok if we talk of wedding?"

"Sure Kimi-chan. When would you like to get married?"

"If ok with you, can we marry maybe six months from now? Need time to make arrangements and invite people." 




Kimiko Ch. 02



"Sure. I think that will be fine. May I invite a few close friends and family also?"

"Yes please. I want them attend very much also."

"How many guests were you thinking of inviting?"

"I don't know. Maybe we make list first then see?"

"Ok. I think that there will less than ten people from my side." I told Kimiko. "I would not want to ask too many people to attend because of the expense of travel. But my parents and several close friends will want to be here."

"Anata, is ok if I meet them before? I think would be important to do first. So they know who I am."

"Definitely! I think that would be a great idea. Let's plan on returning to California in a couple of days. Would that be ok with you?"

"Hmm, but I must ask for leave from work place. I only take time for vacation trip. They expect me back work tomorrow."

"Do you want to continue to work, Kimi-chan?"

"Sumimase? (pardon me?) What do you mean?"

"I mean, that if you don't want to work, I have more than enough money so you don't have to work."

"Oh! Let me think, but I think I must do something."

"I agree, but maybe you can think of something that you would like to do and not because you need to make money?" 

"Hmm, let me think and we talk later. Ok?" She kissed me, "Anata, you spoil me."

Kimiko decided that she and Ai needed to go shopping soon so she went to Ai's bedroom to wake her up. A few minutes later she came back to the kitchen with a sleepy Ai in tow. She gave Ai a cup of tea and gave her a few minutes to wake up. In the meantime, she made up a shopping list of the things that they would need.

"Kimi-chan, may I come with you and Ai shopping? I'd like to see more of your neighborhood."

And so we walked to the neighborhood store and did a little shopping. As we walked through the aisles, I did some mental math and was surprised at how expensive some things were, but at the same time, how affordable other things were. Meat, for example, was very expensive. As well as fresh fish, fresh fruits, and rice. Vegetables, seaweed, paper products, and processed items were very affordable. I guess it was sort of a trade off.

I helped them carry everything home. The girls tried to chase me out of the kitchen however I convinced them to let me do something. Kimiko could see that I would otherwise have nothing to do so they let me clean and chop up some of their vegetables for the evening's dinner.

A short while later while they were waiting for things to simmer, Kimiko and Ai were sitting down, enjoying a cup of tea when Kimiko asked Ai what she thought Kimiko should do? Return to work or do something that she wanted to do regardless of whether she made money at it or not. It didn't take Ai two seconds to tell Kimiko that she would be foolish not to take me up on it! Then jokingly Ai added, "Besides if you have many children, how can you work?" 

Kimiko blushed and laughed. "Yes! Good point." Then she turned to me, "Anata, are you sure that I don't need work?"

"Yes Kimi-chan. You don't need to work if you don't want to."

"Then maybe I not work permanent job but think of something I do myself when I have time?"

"That sounds good! Especially if we have many children!" And she blushed again! I was having fun keeping my bride to be a little embarrassed! Ai thought that it was hilarious! 

So it was decided that Kimiko would go to work the next day and tender her resignation. She didn't think it would matter but she did want to do it properly and not leave her employer without notice. 

-------------------- 

After we finished dinner, cleaned up and bathed, Kimiko and I were laying in her bed talking quietly, making plans for the coming weeks ahead of us.

"Kimi-chan, let me know when your last day of work is and I'll make our airplane reservations."

"Anata, I think I have vacation time left so maybe I don't have to work too many more days. But I should go tomorrow. It's only right that I do that. "

"Yes. I agree." In this country, relationships were very important. So many things revolved around treating others with respect and conducting yourself in an honorable manner.

"Anata, thank you for thinking of my family and me. You buy us apartment because close to our home, yes?"

"Yes. It seemed to be the right thing to do. But also the apartment looked like it will be nice. And also big enough for several children." 

Kimiko giggled! "Well, then we need to practice often so when we make for real then will be good! Yes?"

I smiled and kissed her passionately! As we kissed, she reached for my cock and began stroking it until it stood hard and proud! 

I suckled at her breasts until she could take no more, then ate her pussy and tongued her clit until she had an orgasm! She grabbed her pillow at last minute to scream into so her father wouldn't hear her! As she recovered, she told me not to eat her out while others could hear her! That would be very embarrassing! I smiled and kissed her. 

We made love slowly and tenderly, interrupted by the occasional kiss. Kimiko came as soon as I bottomed out, as well as later when I deposited my load of cum in her, bathing the walls of her vagina with my love for her. She hugged me tightly with her arms and legs; her eyes clamped shut from the intensity of a second orgasm, "ohhhhh........... anata ........ you make me feel so good .............." 

-------------------- 

We got up early the next morning as Kimiko, Ai and Tetsuo had to go to work. That left Genzo and myself at home.

"Come Todd-san, let's visit with friend." Genzo and I left to catch a local train that went into Osaka's business district. He explained that he wanted to show me where he used to work and introduce me to some of his close friends there. I guess so I would learn more about him. 

Genzo had worked at Matsushita Electric's Osaka research and development facility. It was located just outside of one of Osaka's business core areas. About a ten minute walk from the train station. It was located in an unassuming building. But since it wasn't a sales location, it really didn't need to broadcast its presence to the world. 

Genzo was greeted warmly and we ended up in a coffee room talking with a couple of his buddies. He explained to them who I was and what I used to do and there was immediate interest.

"Todd-san, please explain what technology designer is?"

So I tried to explain, with Genzo's interpretation, what I used to do. 

One of Genzo's colleagues, Takara Shoji, asked, "Kawaguchi-san, do you want to continue do technology design?"

"I plan to continue however not full time. Perhaps as a consultant to just a handful of companies."

"Will you live in United States or Japan?"

"We plan to live both in California and here in Osaka. We just signed papers to buy a home here."

"So-ka! How long you stay here?"

"We will be here for the week then I must return to California for a short while before returning here. Kimiko and I need to plan our wedding!" And everyone chuckled.

Genzo piped in, "Todd-san good man. He treat my daughter very good. I hope they have many children so I can be busy ojiichan (grandfather)!" More laughter erupted at that!

Takara added, "Todd-san, please come back have coffee with us again when you return. I would like talk with you more." 

Genzo raised his eyebrows at that and asked, "Business?" 

Takara responded, "Maybe. We'll see."

Later Genzo informed me that Takara was the section chief. It was his job to oversee new product research and development. Their business was very competitive and they were always being pressured to come up with new product ideas.

We left the Matsushita office shortly thereafter and spent some time visiting some of the shopping districts in Osaka. Genzo showed me a map that outlined the city. There were many shopping districts and business core areas. Industrial segments were also identified. Like any large city, it sprawled wherever it could, regardless of any land planning. Very similar to our large cities in the US. I shared that observation with Genzo.

He agreed, "So-ka. Sometimes I don't like but other times, maybe good. Depends. Some places bad and need new development. Depends."

I knew what he meant. In our large cities in the US, we had our own ghettos. Osaka was no different. 

We returned home in the late afternoon and were greeted by Ai, Kimiko and Tetsuo. Ai had brought along her boy friend who worked at the same company that she did. It was a retail store and Ai worked in the office doing general clerical work. Her boy friend, Tanagawa Masanao, worked in another part of the office as a buyer. Ai introduced him to me. Genzo greeted him warmly and we sat down to dinner.

Over dinner, Genzo told everyone of our visit to Matsushita and Takara's interest in what I did. Kimiko's eyes sparkled when her father said that Takara wanted to talk with me again when we returned from our trip to the US. 

Kimiko also told everyone that when she went in and talked to her boss about resigning, he jumped up and said that she couldn't. At least not until they had a party for her! He was truly happy for her! They would plan on a get together for her and let her know their plans after a week or so. 

She had five more days of vacation which she could take right away and would resign right after that so there wasn't anything holding her back from returning to the US with me now. She was relieved that everything had gone so well.

Ai's boy friend, Masanao, sat quietly for the most part until Tetsuo asked him why he was so quiet? "Because Ai-chan tell me to only listen and watch tonight!" We all laughed. Ai blushed! "Masa!" she scolded! We laughed even more! 

She explained, "I ask Masa to please see how Todd-san treat Kimi-chan. I want him to see difference between Japan man and American man. Maybe he look at me different?" 

Masanao replied, "Ai-chan, I try!" and Genzo thumped him on his back! "Yes, you treat my daughter good. Otherwise she beat you up! I know!" That caused all of us to laugh even more and Ai to blush brightly!

That night in bed, I shared with Kimiko how our meeting with Takara went. I told her that perhaps there may be a job for her if he was interested in having me take on a project or two for them. That I would need help communicating with Matsushita if things developed along those lines.

"I would be very happy to help my husband as much as I can. But only part time, ok? I must save time to be good mother to our children!" she said with a giggle!

I took her into my arms and we kissed passionately! Not coming up for air, I moved my body over hers and she grasped my erection and rubbed it up and down the lips of her pussy before placing me at her entrance. As I sank into Kimiko's warm and wet depths, she moaned her approval and pleasure, "oh ........ love me, anata ........." I filled her with my love twice that night.

-------------------- 

The next morning, Kimiko and I left for the city core where we visited with a travel agent to make our flight arrangements to return via San Francisco. We were able to book flights out the next day with a return to Osaka a week later. I thought that we would drive up to meet my parents in Oakland, then do a little sightseeing up in Napa Valley before returning to Osaka.

While there we also took the time to pick up cell phones for both of us. Kimiko never thought to have one as Ai always had hers when they went out together. Otherwise she was either at work or at home and didn't need one. However now that we would be commuting back and forth between Osaka and California, it made sense for her to have one also so she could stay in touch with her family.

We did some shopping also as Kimiko wanted to take a gift for my parents when we met. She wasn't sure of what to get so I suggested getting something that Osaka was known for. So she picked up an assortment of rice crackers and a paper mache figurine made by artisans in the area. 

We went home and got dinner started for the family. Ai was next to arrive home and she promptly tried to kick me out of the kitchen. "Man not belong in kitchen!" she said sternly, only to break down laughing when Kimiko tickled her! 

"Ai-chan, please, Todd-san is American man. He different!" 

"Ok, ok. You stay but only watch. Kimi-chan and me cook. Ok?" So I stayed and kept them company and just sipped on a cup of hot tea. Kimiko gave Ai our cell phone numbers so they could reach us if needed. Ai logged it into her cell phone and put the numbers next to their house phone. 

Over dinner, Kimiko informed everyone that we would be returning to California the next day. I told them that I had been away for too long and needed to get back to check on things. It would also be a good time for Kimiko to meet my parents. I thought perhaps I'd better let them know of Kimiko ahead of time, so I made mental plans to call them the next day. Considering the time zones, it would have been too early in the morning in California to call them that night. Japan is seventeen hours ahead of the west coast.

Genzo said that he wanted us to take a gift to my parents. The Japanese have a thing for gift giving. They even have a special word for it; 'omiyage'. That's how serious they take this! So right after dinner he and Tetsuo left to pick something up. In the meantime, I helped Kimiko and Ai clean up and put things away. 

Ai had left to bathe and Kimiko and I were relaxing over a cup of hot tea when Genzo and Tetsuo returned home. 

"Todd-san, please give to parents for us. Your father Nisei, yes? I hope they like. It not much." Genzo had picked up a lacquered wooden serving tray. I've seen these before and they can be very expensive! 

"Otoosan, this is too much!" I told him. "Simple gift would be fine."

"No Todd-san. You marry Kimiko. You will be part of our family. You special person so they also very special to us. Please give to parents for us."

Kimiko nodded her head. "Otoosan, this very nice gift. We will be happy to give to Todd's parents for you and Tetsuo." 

I poured Genzo and Tetsuo some tea while Kimiko took the tray into her room so we could pack it for our trip tomorrow. I asked both of them if Kimiko might find it difficult here if she were to marry a gaijin (foreigner)? It never crossed my mind until that moment. I recalled a friend of mine who had married an American Samoan woman then went to live in Tonga only to find out that Tongans and Samoans had some deep rooted cultural issues. I hoped that her marrying a gaijin wouldn't cause her problems.

Genzo replied, "Todd-san, only few are, how you say? Hard head! But not to mind. Most will be fine. Also, your last name Kawaguchi so not apparent."

Tetsuo chimed in, "She is envy of all her friends! Many want to have American boy friend, too."

Genzo asked, "Todd-san, will Kimi-chan have difficult time in California?"

"I don't think so. Where I live there are many Japanese and Chinese Americans. Also many immigrants of different nationalities. Vietnamese, Korean, Philipinos and Mexicans. So many different people."

"So-ka. Must be different living there. Here mostly Japanese. Very few gaijin."

"Yes, there are many different people living in California. I think Kimi-chan will enjoy her time there."

"So-ka. And she will be with you so I not worried." 

"Thank you otoosan. I will always take care of Kimi-chan." 

Genzo's eyes got a little misty which he quickly shook off by telling Tetsuo to bring out the sake for a drink before we called it a night.

-------------------- 

Later that night as Kimiko lay in my arms resting after a round of love making, I let her know of her father's concern for her well being when she is in California. 

"Anata, I not worried as long as I with you. I trust you take care me."

"That I will Kimi-chan. That I will."

-------------------- 

Kimiko called a cab the next morning to take us and our bags to the train station so we could catch the commuter out to Kansai Airport. We made it to the airport without incident and checked in on time. As we lounged in the airport waiting area I remembered to call my parents. They didn't even know that I had gone to Hawaii let alone to Japan. This phone call was going to surprise the heck out of them.

I put the phone on speaker so Kimiko could listen in on the conversation and dialed their home number. After a short wait, we could hear the phone ringing on the other side. After several rings, my mother picked up.

"Hello?"

"Hi mom!"

"Todd, what a pleasant surprise. How are things with you?" 

"Very good, actually. Would it be ok if I drove up and saw you guys tomorrow? Maybe we can have dinner together?"

"I'm sure that would be fine. I'll ask your father and let you know if he has other plans. But otherwise plan to come up tomorrow night. In fact, why don't you come up for dinner tonight?"

"Sorry, but no can do, mom."

"Oh?"

"Yeah, that would be difficult to do as I'm overseas at the moment."

"Oh?"

"Yeah."

"And?"

"Yes?"

"Todd, don't play games with your mother. I know you too well. What's up?"

"Think you can keep a secret?"

"Depends on what it is! And I already know that you retired. So what is it?"

"I want you and dad to meet someone."

And there was silence on the other end for a long moment.

"Mom?"

"Todd, is this what I think you're saying?"

"What do you think I'm saying?"

"Todd!"

I laughed and Kimiko couldn't help but laugh also. "Mom, I'm bringing my fiancé home to meet you and dad."

Mom shrieked! "So tell me the details!" was all that she could say once she calmed down.

"Well, she's from Japan and she's awfully nice, and I think you and dad will love her!"

"So what's her name?"

Kimiko jumped in then, "Hello Todd's mother! My name is Kimiko. I am happy speak with you!" And I left the two women to talk more! Kimiko was smiling and chatting away with my mother. Looked like they were going to get along fine. 

We boarded the flight on time and got into San Francisco early the next day. The flight from Osaka to San Francisco is a long one so we were dying to get off the plane and stretch our legs. 

After we cleared customs and immigration, we caught one of the airport shuttles home. That was also a long ride however it also gave Kimiko a chance to see the town; if nothing else, from the freeway.

The shuttle deposited us at my doorstep and Kimiko was impressed by it. I thought of it as just a home in the valley, however to Kimiko it was a huge palace! Space is a real issue for the Japanese so their homes tend to be small and compact. All I had was a three bedroom house with a covered patio, pool, hot tub, and a backyard garden. Nothing unusual to me. But to Kimiko it was a huge home!

I showed Kimiko the house and she liked what she saw. "Anata, plenty room for children." She smiled mischievously as she said that. "But need woman's touch. Yes?"

"Hai Kimi-chan!" I said as I grabbed her around her waist and hugged her tightly to me. "I hope you will be happy with me." 

"Would you like to rest?" I asked?

"Yes, I think good idea. But first we should bathe."

"Why don't you unpack while I get my mail and make sure that my car starts. I will be in shortly."

I went to my mailbox and unloaded a ton of mail. Most of it junk mail. But I thought that I would need to make arrangements to forward my mail when we start to commute between homes. Perhaps I need to talk with a mail forwarding service and have them do that when we are away for extended periods.

I started up my car and everything seemed to be fine. As I came back to the house, I flipped on the water heater and I also checked my voice messages and found several from one of my former clients. He apparently had just found out about my 'retirement' and wanted to speak with me.




Kimiko Ch. 02



As I was taking down his name and phone number Kimiko joined me. "Anata, you must show me how to work these so I can help you." 

I kissed her. "Yes dear. And you can also use anything that I have also. What I own is also yours. Ok?" What Kimiko offered to do would help me a lot. If I was going to make a second career out of consulting or contract work, her assistance would become invaluable to me.

She smiled, "Hai. Thank you." So I walked her through the phone answering machine, the VCR and DVD player and the cable remote. Most of our appliances are very similar to theirs so Kimiko picked up on almost everything quite easily. 

"Come Kimi-chan, shall we bathe?"

"Our first time in your house, yes?"

"No, Kimi-chan, our house, ok?"

"Anata," she whispered softly as she came into my embrace and gave me a kiss that curled my toes!

I led her to our bedroom where we slowly disrobed each other. I hugged her nude body to mine and we kissed again. Then Kimiko stepped away and knelt in front of me and took my member in her mouth, and gave me a blow job that I will never forget! It felt as if I had spurted an endless stream of cum into Kimiko's mouth. My balls had been drained so well that they hurt! 

I took Kimiko by her arms and hugged her. As I made to kiss her, she hesitated, "Anata, my mouth not clean." 

"Kimi-chan, if you give me a blow job, the least I can do is to show my appreciation!" And I kissed her passionately! Tasting my cum in her mouth, I extended my tongue and was met by hers. 

I lowered Kimiko to our bed and made love to her body, starting with her firm breasts to her beautiful pussy. As I ate her out, Kimiko came with a roar as she grabbed my head and pressed me tightly to her! I fastened my lips to her clit and kept licking it until she went limp! Kimiko had passed out from the sheer intensity of her orgasm.

I moved up the bed and cradled her in my arms, waiting for her to come to, which she did a few minutes later. 

"Oh, anata........ that was so good! ....... But now you make love to me, please?"

I was harder than ever and we made love. We made our bed so wet that we had to change the sheets and bed liner afterwards. 

After showering together, we lay naked on our bed with a light sheet covering us, resting from our trip and our love making. I set my alarm clock for two in the afternoon and we slept soundly. After getting up, we dressed for the drive up to visit with my parents and left a little early to allow for a leisurely drive up. Plus we also had the normal rush hour traffic to deal with. 

We stopped at a Quizno's and picked up a salad and a couple of drinks. Kimiko was surprised at the size of the salad and thought that we could share one. And she was right. One was just the right size for both of us. She was also amazed at the size of the sub sandwiches. As I thought about it, I could see that we Americans just ate too much! 

Kimiko called her home on the way up and spoke with her father to let him know that we had arrived ok. He told her to have a good time and that he would talk to us when we got back. 

We arrived at my parent's home in Oakland around 6 pm. It had taken us roughly an hour and a half to make the drive over. During non-rush hour, that would be more like forty five minutes. Traffic sucks. Kimiko observed that traffic was just as bad as in Osaka. That's why they usually took the trains to and from work. 

Mom must have been waiting anxiously for our arrival as she came bursting through the door as soon as I parked my car in their drive way! Dad followed right behind her. Mom gave me a hug then raced over to the other side of the car to welcome Kimiko with a big hug as well! Dad followed suit with a handshake for me and a hug for Kimiko.

We had a very enjoyable evening. Mom and dad really liked Kimiko and I think that she liked them too. She and mom talked a lot about the adjustment that mom went through as she not only married a Japanese man, but also one who was an American. Going from a Swedish upbringing and environment, to a totally different country to be married to a man who brings with him a cultural heritage from yet another country! That must have been an experience. 

I had never thought about the difficulties that they must have gone through, ever! I just always thought that they were my parents and that was that! My conversations with Genzo and Kimiko helped to make me appreciate what my mother and father went through. 

Kimiko and I told them the story of how we met, the fun we had in Honolulu and how we just seemed to click from the very beginning. Dad said that it was the same way when he met mom. He was in the military and had been rotated to Sweden. He met mom at some sort of USO affair and it was as if he had known her all his life! 

Mom kissed him, "You are so sweet, but have you forgotten the rest of the story?" We laughed! "I had to drag him onto the dance floor, he was so shy! But I fell in love with your father that night also! He was so handsome and such a gentleman."

Kimiko gave them her gifts and also those of her father and brother. Mom's eyes bugged out when she saw the lacquer tray. 

"Kimiko, this tray is so beautiful! Please tell your father that we are so appreciative! And the little figurines are so cute! How do you say, 'kawai-so'? Is that right?" 

Kimiko was surprised by mom's use of the term for 'cute.' "Hai, that is right! You know Japanese?" 

"After being married to this man for so many years, some of the language has rubbed off on me! Especially since my mother spoke very little English!" 

Dad laughed! "You should have seen mom and grandma try to speak with each other in the early days! They had their own unique sign language! But it worked!" 

Dad was munching on the rice crackers already! "Kimiko, these are so delicious! We hardly ever get anything like this here!"

We talked about the wedding being in Osaka and our wish that they join us for that. They said that they might want to go over early to meet Kimiko's family and to see if they could help us in any way. We promised to let them know once we had everything scheduled.

Dad shared, "You know I've never been to Japan? We've been back to Sweden several times to visit with mom's family, but I've never been to Japan?"

"Oh, you must come visit!" Kimiko cried. "I sure you will enjoy!"

"I think that we will. Mom, let's plan on staying over a little longer after the wedding to do some sight seeing. Ok with you?"

"Yes. That sounds like it will be fun."

We also told them of our intent to live part of the time at my place and part of the time in Osaka. Kimiko told them that I had already signed us up to buy a condo there.

Mom asked, "Can you afford it? I heard that homes in Japan are very expensive?"

"Well, you know that stock I bought a long time ago that dad thought was a long shot?"

"Yeah, that computer company or something, right?" dad responded.

"Yeah, that's the one. Well I cashed out and here we are today. Kimiko and I don't have to work if we don't want to."

"Hey! Not to shabby." Dad was impressed.

"It was all luck," I confessed. 

It was getting late so we said our good nights and drove back home. Kimiko was tired but happy. 

As we were driving back, she said, "Anata, I very lucky girl. I have good man for husband. I have good mother and father. I look forward to good life with you." She smiled and hugged my arm. We arrived home and bathed before retiring. We were so tired that we fell asleep immediately. 

The next morning we dressed and went out for breakfast. Then I returned the phone call from my former client. He had tried to get my former company to take on a new project that entailed taking a two year old electronic switching device and remaking it into something that the market would want a year or two from now. The person that he had talked with at the company didn't have a clue of what he was talking about. At least that's what he told me. Any way, long story short, he wanted to know if I would come and work for them.

I told Ray, that's his name Ray Fontina, that I would prefer working as a consultant so I could set my own schedules and work at my own pace. I told Ray that I would be splitting my time between here and Japan so would need some flexibility.

Ray didn't care so long as I was able to help them out. So I agreed. I asked Ray to have someone draft up some specs for me to look at. Then I would hammer out a consultant contract for them to look over. 

I told Kimiko about the possible work. She was excited! "Anata, you are smart man also. Fontina-san want you work on his project too! But make sure you have time for me and children, ok?" 

"Hai! Always!" With that, I scooped her off her feet and carried her to our bedroom where we soaked another set of sheets! Kimiko clawed my back as she screamed her orgasm out loud! I joined her a split second later as I felt my balls constrict then push my sperm up my cock to splash into her womb, prolonging Kimiko's orgasm! 

That must have been the best orgasm that I had ever experienced! I don't know what it was but Kimiko made me cum so hard that I saw stars! As I came back to earth, I noticed that tears were running from Kimiko's eyes. Concerned, I asked if I had hurt her?

"Anata, I cry because you make me so happy! I love you all my heart! You love me all your heart! You make my body sing! I so happy!" And she kissed me so hard that I thought my lips would be rubbed raw!

We showered and cleaned ourselves up and dressed casually. I told Kimiko to pack a bag that would hold us for two nights. That we would be driving up through Napa Valley so she can see the wine producing region of California. She was excited as her brother occasionally would buy an expensive wine for them to enjoy. She said that he thought he was a wine expert!

"We'll need to take some wine back for Tetsuo then." 

"Yes, but not too much. He will show off his friends!"

We closed down the house in preparation for our short trip and packed the car with our bags. We drove up to San Francisco and stopped off to visit J-town. I thought she would get a kick out of visiting this area populated by many Japanese stores and restaurants. We had lunch there at a quaint little okazuya (deli). Kimiko found the shops to be to her liking. I could see that we would be making trips up here periodically in the future.

We drove through the Golden Gate Park so she could take a quick look, then north over the Golden Gate Bridge. She got a kick out of it and had to take a ton of pictures! That bridge is an international landmark! Once over, we stopped off at Muir Woods for an hour before heading over to Napa. 

I had heard that the River Terrace Inn at Napa was a real treat so we dropped in and they had a nice suite available. I booked us in for two nights. After dropping our bags off, we went into town to find a suitable place for dinner. Kimiko felt adventurous so we decided to try the Celadon which offered a lot of different types of cuisines depending on what was in season. We were not disappointed! 

"Anata, I eat so much, I will be so big when we go home!" she laughed. "It not good!"

"Then we need to exercise a lot to loose weight!" I replied, arching my eyebrows as I said that! 

Kimiko slapped my arm and blushed! "Hai! We exercise plenty!" Then she playfully added, "Where shall we go walking?" Then danced away quickly before I could grab her and spank her sexy bottom!



Kimiko Ch. 03



Please read my story of Kimiko from the beginning. It will make a lot more sense to you then!

--------------------

Kimiko and I had set out to do a little sightseeing before we returned to Osaka. We spent that day touring 'J-Town' in San Francisco and the Golden Gate area before going up to Muir Woods and ending up in Napa. We had booked a room at the River Terrace Inn and had just returned to our hotel room after gorging ourselves on a feast at the Celadon restaurant in town.

--------------------

"Anata (dear), what is this bath for?" Kimiko asked as she pointed to the hot tub that was located on the enclosed balcony of our room. "Is to bathe?"

"Honey, this is a whirl pool bath. Some people call it a hot tub. People soak in the hot water to relax. Very similar to furo (Japanese hot tub) only that this is not for bathing."

"Shall we try?"

"Sure. Usually people wear their swim suits when they use the hot tub."

"Oh, I not pack swim suits."

"Well, let's take a look at what we have here." I walked out on the balcony with Kimiko and checked out the surrounding area. Our room faced a wooded area and the solid railings of the balcony were high enough so that no one could readily see into our unit without being fairly high up in a tree somewhere. That insured us of some degree of privacy.

"Kimi-chan, I think we'll be ok if we wear our robes before and after."

Kimiko's smiled naughtily, "I want try. Looks like it will be good. Anata, shall we?"

I pulled the cover off the tub and tested the water. It was a little tepid so I searched around for the heater switch and found it. I turned it on and tested the whirl pool pump. It started up without a hitch and I played with the air bubble adjustment knob to get the water jets into action. 

"Oh! Is like river?" Kimiko asked.

"Just like a hot river once the water heats up. I know you'll enjoy it! Let's undress while the water heats up."

We returned to our bedroom to undress and put our robes on. I helped Kimiko out of her blouse and blue jeans, then her underwear. As I removed her bra, I couldn't help but to suckle her small, firm breasts, kissing and licking her nipples until they were hard nubs. Then running my teeth over them lightly as Kimiko shuddered her delight! 

She held my head to her breast and exhaled noisily, ".....oooohhhhhh! ..... anata ...... "

Kimiko was breathing heavily as my hands moved to her waist and I lowered her panties, slowly licking the lips of her pussy from bottom to top. I pushed my tongue between her outer lips and slowly dragged my tongue up inside her wet pussy, gently stroking her inner lips in the process. 

Kimiko continued to breathe heavily as I tongued her labia slowly several times before I took her clit between my lips and gently massaged it slowly with my tongue. That sent Kimiko into orbit! Her thighs closed around my head and she grabbed my hair to pull me tightly into her! I lapped up her juices as quickly as I could, savoring her slightly salty taste. She almost collapsed on me as her orgasm overwhelmed her! I wrapped my arms around her hips and steadied her until she recovered.

"Anata!" she whispered as she pulled me up and hugged me tightly to her nude form! "You make me cum so good! I want make you feel good too." 

"Kimi-chan, you always do!" I smiled. "Let's get in the hot tub and enjoy ourselves. Ok?" I undressed and we put our robes on. Kimiko grabbed a couple of towels from the bathroom and carried them out with us to the balcony. Placing the towels on a nearby chair, we took a quick scan of the area and didn't see anyone. We disrobed and slipped into the hot tub as quickly as we could. 

"Anata, this feels good. Water hot and water stream feels good on body. You have at home, yes?"

"Hai (yes). Did you see it in the backyard?"

"Hai. This feels good." She said softly as she luxuriated in the hot water. "This better than furo. Can we put in our apartment in Osaka?"

"I'm sure we can put a smaller version of it in."

"Good. I think we will like. One thing make better," she said as she came to me and straddled my hips. "Need good husband also," she whispered as she placed her pussy on top of my hard cock and slowly impaled herself on me. God she felt good! Oh fuck!

Kimiko bobbed slowly up and down on me, her eyes shut, leaning slightly forward towards me. I kissed her nipples and caressed each hard nub with my tongue causing Kimiko to moan repeatedly. She had begun to breathe noisily through her mouth when I decided that I couldn't take it any longer and lifted my seductress out of the hot tub, still impaled on my hard cock!

I laid down on the floor of the enclosed balcony on my back as Kimiko began pounding herself down on my shaft as hard as she could! I could feel her orgasm start to build and began to thrust my pelvis upwards, driving my hard cock into her pussy as deeply as I could. Suddenly Kimiko arched her back and opened her mouth in a noiseless scream! 

The walls of her vagina tightened around my cock sending me over the edge as well. She slammed her pelvis down one last time as she tried to force me even deeper into her depths! Her orgasmic shudders made me cum seconds later; my pulsing prick hammering upwards as deep as I could into her, spewing my creamy life force within her womb, causing Kimiko to cum once again! 

--------------------

The next morning we woke up with the first morning light. Kimiko kissed me softly and gently stroked my cock until I was hard again. I moved over her as she spread her legs open. As I lowered myself to her, Kimiko took my erection and placed me at her opening. I slowly entered her as her eyes closed seductively; relishing the feeling of my appendage spearing into her depths. 

I rested myself on her with my hard cock deeply embedded within her moist and warm vagina. 

"Kimi-chan, I love you," I whispered. She tightened her hug, opened her eyes and kissed me; her tongue parting my lips. 

"I love you." She whispered back as she slowly closed her eyes. "Please cum in me." We made tender, gentle love that morning. Both of us coming several times, soaking our bedsheets in the process. 

After taking in a quick and light breakfast, we decided to just drive up the valley and visit a couple of the vineyards and sample their fares. We made it to two vineyards by the time lunch rolled around. We couldn't handle much more than that. The alcohol was beginning to get to us.

We drove north up to Yountville and had lunch there. Nothing fancy. Just a small sandwich shop that baked their own breads and featured locally grown produce and cheese made from local sheep herds. Kimiko tried a grilled baby Portobello mushroom half-sandwich while I tried the Romano tomato and provolone cheese sandwich that was laced with cilantro and shitake mushrooms. They were absolutely delicious! 

After a quick pit stop, we jumped back in the car and made a fast run up to see Old Faithful over in Calistoga! I guess there are a couple of 'Old Faithful' geysers, and this one is just like the one in Yosemite. That geyser is supposed to be so regular that you could set your clock by it! When we got there it had started to bubble and gurgle. By the time we had gotten out of our car, the volume of steam had picked up noticeably! And just as we started to walk towards the geyser, it went ballistic! Shooting hot water and steam high into the air! It was fantastic to watch! 

Kimiko had never seen anything like it before! She grabbed all of the brochures she could find so she could take them back to show her family! She even picked up a DVD about the geyser. Unfortunately it was only in English. But her family was pretty good with English so we were certain that they would understand enough of it.

After that we spent some time in Calistoga, visiting a couple of stores here and there pawing through the tourist souvenirs. Nothing excited us so we left town after about an hour of walking around. 

On the way back to our hotel, we stopped off at Grgich Hills Vineyard and sampled some of their wines. Kimiko liked their Chardonnay and the Pinot Noir so we arranged to have a half case each shipped to her brother back in Osaka. 

On the ride back to our hotel, Kimiko called her home to see how things were. From the gist of what I could hear, she was talking with Ai about our trip. At one point her dad must have come on the phone. Kimiko turned to me and told me that Takara from Matsushita Electric wanted to meet with me as soon as we returned to Osaka. I told Kimiko to tell her father of our flight schedule and that I would be looking forward to meeting with Takara.

"Otoosan, Todd-san say that ok to make meeting with Takara-san. He look forward to meet with Takara-san."

After she finished her phone call, Kimiko told me that she had asked Ai to look for an apartment for us to live in until our apartment was completed. So hopefully she would have something for us to look at when we got back to Osaka. I think Kimiko wanted more privacy for us. After all, we can get a little noisy!

The rest of our trip was fairly uneventful. My parents called before we left Napa and asked that we take a gift back to Kimiko's family for them. Mom wanted to make sure that they reciprocated in like kind to Genzo's omiyage (gift) of an expensive lacquer tray. So we dropped by on the way back home to pick it up. 

Unbeknownst to us, mom had called a couple of my classmates from high school and we had a nice get together at their home in Oakland. Kimiko had a great time talking with some of the girls, finding out what a dork I was when I was younger. But it seemed to endear me to her even more. 

Later that night as we cuddled in our bed after making love, Kimiko shared with me some of the stories that the girls told her. I laughed and admitted that I was what they said I was; a dork! She smiled and kissed me; "I glad you were ........ dork. If you were handsome then maybe you married already and I not meet you. This way I meet you and have chance for you love me."

"And I do love you, Kimi-chan."

"And I love you. I want always you love me." Kimiko whispered those words with her eyes closed. I moved to lay on top of her again and she opened her legs, waiting for my hard cock to slide into her again. 

"I will always love you, Kimi-chan." I said softly in return as I slid slowly into her. Kimiko's eyes fluttered open briefly then she smiled and closed them once again as she focused on my hard erection's invasion, "Anata ............. Anata ........." she whispered as her excitement began to grow.

--------------------

Our trip back to California was rapidly drawing to a close. We cleaned up the house as best we could. We decided that on our next trip back, that we would arrange for a cleaning service to come in weekly when we were in town. I arranged for an email account that we could access both here in the US as well as in Japan. I decided that the old laptop that I had used for the past four or five years really wasn't going to cut it anymore so I picked up a new one to lug around with us also. 

Then I called Ray Fortina to let him know that we were returning to Osaka, but that he could have his people email his specs there. He promised to get it over to me in the next day or two. Then we were on the plane headed back to Osaka. 

Our return to Osaka was uneventful as usual. It was a long flight but at least we knew what to expect so it wasn't necessarily unpleasant. Kimiko used the time to start talking about our wedding.

"Anata, I hope you don't mind but I want simple wedding, ok?"

"Kimi-chan, would it be ok with your father, Ai and Tetsuo?" I knew that one's image was very important in Japan so I just wanted to make sure that it would be ok with her family.

"Yes. They will be ok. We not rich like others. So ok if we have small wedding."

I told Kimiko that she should be in charge of our wedding as I didn't know what would be acceptable in Japan. She agreed on one condition; that I be actively involved in the planning. Didn't mind that one bit.

We got back to Osaka and were met by Ai and Mikan. Ai filled us in on two apartments that she found that she thought would be ok for us. Both were within walking distance of their home so it would be convenient for all of us. Ai made arrangements for us to take a look at both units that afternoon.

We arrived at their home and dropped our bags off in Kimiko's room. There was a little unpacking to do but we were done quickly. So Ai and Mikan walked with us to visit the apartments. We looked at both units that afternoon and Kimiko decided that one located two blocks away from her home would do. So we closed the deal and received the keys. 

Kimiko wanted to do some shopping for household things as well as clean the apartment before we moved in. So we stayed at her home for several more days until that was all completed. In the meantime, Genzo (Kimiko's father) took me back to Matsushita to meet with Takara Shoji; Genzo's former boss.

Takara met us in a conference room this time. As Genzo had warned me earlier, this was a business meeting. I found the prospect of working with Matsushita to be interesting. Many don't know that the company is the parent for a number of consumer electronic companies such as Panasonic, Technics and National. There were a number of different product lines that Matsushita had that could use my knowledge and ideas.

Takara laid out the outline of their general proposal. It had a couple of rough edges to it so we spent several hours talking it over. In the end, we agreed that I would take them on as a client and focus on two major product lines; both of which were consumer oriented and would not be place me into a possible conflict of interest with Ray Fortina's business which was focused on industrial applications. It looked as if both contracts would keep me busy over the near term. 

Takara wanted me to focus on consumer trends and emerging technologies. Through their product research they had identified two current technologies that they thought had a firm place in consumer markets; wireless phones and laptops. My assignment was to take existing products and come up with enhancements to make them more useful and handy. 

The assignment was shaping up to be a very interesting project. I was looking forward to it. Takara would be forwarding a basic agreement for me to take a look at and sign if everything was ok. I told Takara that I trusted him to look after our relationship and that I hoped that he could rely upon me to do the same. Genzo smiled and grunted his approval. The deal was done.

Ray Fortina had also sent his package over and I could see that his project would probably require a lot more intensive work up front over the next 3 to 6 months. Matsushita's project however would be more long term in nature; probably looking at a 12 to 18 month window, or even longer depending on how things progressed. 

In the meantime, Kimiko, Ai, and Mikan had gone over the apartment with a rag and mop until it was spick and span. If wood floors could sparkle, these would have. We moved in and set up house quickly. It was a simple one bedroom affair with a combination kitchen, dining room, living room type of arrangement. I thought it would do well for the couple of months that we would be living there.

Ai also informed Kimiko that she and Mikan had gotten a couple of their girl friends together and were going to throw her a bridal shower party. Kimiko was excited! This is not something that happens very often in Japan. One of the western cultural things that has yet to catch on in Japan. But the idea had certainly gotten Kimiko and Ai excited! I guess it was something different but fitting since I was a 'gaijin' or foreigner. So they planned it for a week later. That gave us a couple of days to get settled into our apartment, and perhaps a couple of days to do some sight seeing. 

Moving into our apartment took all of one day. There wasn't that much to move. Kimiko decided to only move some of her clothes and her personal toiletries, and save the rest for when we moved into our condominium unit in a couple of months. And I just had two suitcases of stuff. I think we spent all of two hours hanging stuff up and putting things in drawers. 

We went out that afternoon and picked up towels, bedroom stuff, kitchen stuff and other odds and ends. Kimiko decided to keep things simple for now and pick up other things later as we needed them. 

We returned to Kimiko's family's home and helped Ai make dinner. Well, Kimiko and Ai made dinner, and I gave them my moral support! Ai wouldn't let me do anything; "Ani (older brother), kitchen is woman's place. Man just enjoy food. Ok?" Kimiko and I laughed. 

After dinner, we returned to our apartment and bathed together. Our apartment's bathroom came equipped with a traditional Japanese style bathing area and furo (hot tub). I soaped up a wash cloth and ran it over Kimiko's beautiful body. Finishing her extremities and her torso, I dropped the wash cloth and turned Kimiko so that her back was faced to me. Soaping up my hands, I spent a few minutes making sure that her breasts were cleaned properly. Kimiko was breathing heavily as I lowered my hands and made sure that her pussy was similarly treated!

"Anata ......" she whispered loudly, "please, in me ....... please." as she bent over and offered herself to me.

I entered her slowly, savoring her tight pussy around my hard cock as I slowly slid into her. I gently moved in and out of Kimiko at first until she started bucking her hips back at me with each of my thrusts. She started to moan, "so good ....... so good ........ oh .... oh ... oh ...," until she whispered loudly, "Anata, I coming!" Kimiko's body tensed up and her pussy clamped down on me as she orgasmed, "AAAHHHHHHHEEEEEEE!" she screamed! 

Her body went limp as she passed out momentarily. I lunged forward and held onto her, hugging her to me as I lowered us to the floor, with Kimiko in my lap, her back to my chest as I leaned against the wall of the bath. Kimiko is normally not loud when she cums so this probably meant that she must have had one doozy of an orgasm; especially as she also passed out from it! We sat there for several minutes until she came to. 

"Anata, that was best time for me. I don't know why but was so good. But you not cum?" she asked?

"No dear, I didn't however that doesn't mean that I didn't enjoy it." I smiled in return. "I'm saving myself for later so we can make love again very soon." 

"Hmm," she smiled back, "I like that." 

We finished bathing then christened the kitchen as I took Kimiko from behind again, this time cumming so much that my sperm leaked out of her as I pumped her pussy full with my semen!

Later as we lay in bed, Kimiko asked, "Anata, when do you want me have children?"

"I haven't given that much thought, Kimi-chan. What do you want?"

"I think we have long honeymoon first. Practice every day! (she giggled) Maybe practice several times each day? Maybe one year?" she said with a glint in her eye. "Then when we good, then we make children, yes?"

I laughed and nodded my head in approval.

----------------------------

About a week after our return, Kimiko received a call from the sales agent at the condominium project that we had bought into. She invited us to come in to inspect our unit and to start thinking of how we would want the unit to be finished. Things such as flooring, colors, light fixtures, etc; that sort of stuff. So we made an appointment to see the unit the next morning and meet with the sales agent.

We met with the sales agent at the condominium project the next day. Construction had progressed to the point where we could go up to our unit and walk it. It was huge by Japanese standards. It was a three bedroom unit, with a full kitchen, dining room, living room and den. It had a full bathroom in the master bedroom and another full bathroom just off the living room. 




Kimiko Ch. 03



I asked the sales agent about the possibility of swapping out the bath tub with a whirlpool tub. And she said that it wouldn't be a problem. She showed us several different types and Kimiko selected a two person bath. We spent the next two hours making decisions over wall coverings, carpets and hard wood floors, kitchen appliances, and more. Our future home was taking shape.

---------------------------

I didn't feel like diving into the Matsushita and Fortina projects right away so we decided to take a couple of days off to do some sight seeing. We took the Shinkansen (Bullet Train) up to Sendai, then a local bus to Akiu-machi (Akiu village) which is located about an hour's ride up into the mountains. This small village had capitalized on the hot springs that abounded in the area. They must have a hot spring for everything that could ail a human being! From arthritis to asthma, to kidney and liver problems. You name it, there seemed to be a hot spring for it. In a way it was humorous. 

Kimiko took me to a Ryokan which is a hotel built around a hot spring. The Akiu Spa and Resort was a treat! This was a first time experience for me; one that I could see repeating as often as we could. They had a men's only and a women's only onsen (hot spring bathing area), as well as one for couples that required reservations but offered complete privacy. Of course, Kimiko had booked us to use the couples-only onsens for the two nights that we were there.

As we entered the onsen our first night, there were several signs in Japanese in the dressing area which caused Kimiko to blush and giggle. When I asked her, Kimiko explained that the signs asked bathers to be considerate and to refrain from having sex in the hot tub! And that the loungers located outside the hot tub were provided for our enjoyment! 

I had to laugh also! I guess too many couples had initiated the hot tub, requiring that it be emptied and cleaned far more often than the hotel preferred to! I could see us doing the same thing if not for that sign! As it turned out, we used one of the loungers before and after soaking in the hot tub! 

All too soon we were back on the train, returning to Osaka. Kimiko had her bridal shower party to attend to and I needed to begin work on my projects for Ray Fortina and Matsushita. 

I spent the day after our return from Akiu-machi on the phone with Ray and Takara, trying to whittle down the variables and options that were readily apparent. Kimiko was running in and out of our apartment, working on the preparations for our wedding. By late afternoon we were both ready for some quiet time. Kimiko's bridal shower was that evening and a little rest would do her good. So we relaxed for about an hour before Ai knocked on our door. Ai hugged me as I opened the door.

"Ani (older brother), would you like come also tonight?" she asked. "We ask all friends to bring husband or boyfriend. Make good party, yes?"

"Ai-chan, thank you." I turned to Kimiko, "Would it be all right with you if I attend?"

"Anata, I would very much like you to come. I want you meet my friends. Good for them know you, too." 

After relaxing for a few more minutes we hopped into a cab and took it down to Mikan's family's restaurant. Mikan is a close friend of Ai and Kimiko, and had accompanied them on their trip to Hawaii. She helped Ai make the arrangements for Kimiko's party.

Mikan's parents had opened up an upstairs room for the party. The room had a tatami (straw mat) floor with shoji (lattice doors with rice paper panels) doors that traversed the room at various intervals, allowing them to divide the large room into smaller, more intimate dining areas if needed. There must have been more than 50 people there by the time we arrived, and more people continued to drift in as the evening progressed. 

This was the first time that I felt out of place even with Kimiko by my side. I understand a little of the language, however am not that fluent. So much of what was being said went right over my head. Kimiko sensed that and tried to introduce many of her friends to me in English. 

"Kimi-chan, don't worry about me, please. I understand and am happy to be here with you." I looked into her eyes and gave her a quick kiss on her lips. I guess everyone was watching us as a cheer was sounded and the entire crowd broke out in applause! Of course, Kimiko was embarrassed by that, but kissed me back anyway and held my hand tightly.

The food was delicious and the beer and sake flowed constantly. About an hour or so into the meal, Ai stood up and began a short program. I understood most of it as Ai told the story of how they met me in Hawaii, the fun we had, and Kimiko's falling in love with me. Her tale had everyone ooo'ing at the helicopter ride to the remote north shore of Kauai and the dinner at the Polynesian Cultural Center.

Then Mikan stood up and began rattling off something so quick that I couldn't follow it. Kimiko told me that she was telling everyone who I was and what I did. Then Mikan informed everyone that Kimiko and I would be living part time in Osaka and California. 

Then apparently it was Kimiko's turn to say a few words. She got up and took my hand, "Anata, please come with me." We walked to the front of the room where Kimiko joined Ai and Mikan. She turned to me, "Anata, I must say in Japanese so others understand. Ai-chan, please explain to Todd-san?" And Ai agreed with a nod of her head.

As Kimiko began speaking, Ai began to translate;

'Many of you know our trip to Hawaii, probably our only trip. Ai and Mikan maybe marry soon, too. So we want to have little fun time first. It was sad when tour agent left us. But I surprised when I met Kawaguchi Todd-san at hotel. He on holiday also. He help make our trip happy time. I not expect meet someone like Todd-san. He very kind and thoughtful. He make our holiday very special. Todd-san help us have good time. We see things many tourist don't see. We all appreciate what Todd-san did for us.'

She paused to gather her thoughts before continuing on. 'Todd-san is good man. He ask me what I think. He ask me what I like. He ask me to help him. He respect me very much. I not used to man like him so not sure how to be.' At that, everyone laughed and Kimiko turned a little crimson. 

She continued, 'All you know me. I not ever think I fall in love so quickly. That not me. But Todd-san is special man. Although we not know each other long, we both love each other very much. I am lucky woman to marry Todd-san soon. I am hoping all of you be so lucky, too.' 

There were tears in her eyes as she said that. I squeezed her hand and she turned to me and kissed me, "Thank you for asking marry me." And the room erupted in applause and cheers! Ai and Mikan were crying also as they hugged each other. Kimiko reached up to my face and brushed away tears which were also falling from my eyes, and kissed me again.

-----------------------

Time marched forward with unwavering certainty. Not that we have much say in that! About a month before our wedding day, I asked Kimiko where she wanted to go for our honeymoon.

"Honey, have you thought about going somewhere for our honeymoon?"

"I'e (no). Do you know where we can go?" she asked.

"Well, there are all sorts of places we can go. I think we should think about what we would like to do while on our honeymoon."

"I think I want spend time only with you." she smiled. "Maybe, you make love to me all day."

I laughed! "That sounds like an excellent idea! Let's see a travel agent and get some ideas."

So we went to see a travel agent in town. Turns out that we had a couple of choices. One was in the south western pacific where we could stay at 'couples' resort and take in one day excursions to isolated islands of our choice where we would be guaranteed to be the only one there. Another was at a hostel in Indonesia that featured a clothing optional, tantric workshop lasting four days. There were several other choices but they all involved staying at some sort of hotel along with five hundred or more guests. That didn't excite us.

The travel agent gave us brochures and pamphlets to look through which we did once we got back to out apartment. 

We were sitting in our living room when Kimiko asked, "Anata, what is clothing optional?"

"That means that guests have the choice of not wearing any clothes."

"Oh! You mean no one wear clothes?"

"Yes. Does that bother you?"

"I not used to! I don't think I like. I don't want anyone see me that way except you. I am only for you."

"Thank you. I am also only for you." As I said that, Kimiko stood up, disrobed and sat in my lap, straddling my waist with her legs wrapped around me.

"You may see me without clothes anytime. You may have my body any time." She kissed me softly. Then with increasing passion, she unbuttoned my shirt and took it off. Then reached for my belt, undid that, and unbuttoned my pants. In short order, we were both nude with Kimiko sitting in my lap.

"Kimi-chan, you are the only one for me. I love you." I said just before she devoured my lips with hers. She hugged me tightly, mashing her breasts against my chest and her pussy against my erection which was trapped between us. 

"Anata," she whispered, "I feel you. I want you in me." She raised herself slightly then impaled herself on my hard cock, sliding down slowly as her warm and wet sheath took me into her. "Oh ....... so good." she moaned.

We sat like that for a long period of time, just savoring the sensation of my hard cock in her vagina, as we hugged and kissed gently and at length. So many kisses and 'I love you's' later, we began to copulate. Slowly at first, then rapidly until we climaxed with a frantic burst of thrusting at the end as we both came at the same time! 

-----------------------

Several hours later, after we had rested and cleaned ourselves up, we continued our discussion about honey moon locations.

"Anata, what is 'tantric'?" 

"Tantric is the art of making love. What this resort does is teach people who stay there how to make love in different ways with their partner."

"Oh, I think we don't need help make love!" she laughed and blushed at the same time.

"I agree!" I chuckled. "But we need to practice often!"

"Hai (yes)!" Kimiko was giggling as she playfully hit me on my arm. "We practice often! All time!"

So it was decided that we would sign up for the south western pacific 'couples only' resort and book ourselves for several of the private islands. This was kind of a unique feature. The resort armed its guests with beach chairs, mats, umbrellas for shade, towels, and a picnic cooler with an assortment of sandwiches, fruits and soft drinks. You took whatever else you wanted; sun screen, a good book, snorkels, whatever. They shipped you out in the morning via a high speed boat ride, then brought you back to the resort in the late afternoon.

Two of the islands were basically atolls from what we could see. Just beaches surrounded by ocean. The nearest island being about a mile or so away. The third island that we signed up for was a bit larger and had several fresh water streams and a water fall. It was a very popular destination so we had to wait until we got there to find out whether we were able to secure it or not. 

-------------------------------

We returned to California to check on things there and drop in on my parents. The trip also gave me an opportunity to meet with Ray Fortina. Ray wanted me to do some future thinking about trends that might affect his primary product lines; electronic switching devices. The devices had applications in all sorts of consumer and commercial appliances. Everything from cell phones to fax machines, to entertainment systems and autobody manufacturing robots. Lots of possibilities. We discussed them all. Ray was enthused however we needed to narrow down the ideas to a handful that had a better than even chance of happening. That would be my assignment over the next month or two.

Our visit with my parents was a repeat of Kimiko's first visit. They got along so well. We had previously given them the date of our wedding so their travel plans could be set up. They were coming in a week early to help Kimiko with anything that needed doing. Then taking the next couple of weeks to play tourist before returning home. 

With so many pending things back in Osaka, we didn't stay very long in California this trip. 

--------------------------------

Our condominium apartment in Osaka was finished on time. We couldn't wait to see the finished unit. When our sales agent called to set up an appointment to officially hand us our keys, Kimiko practically bounced all over our apartment all day long until we could walk over to see it!

It was beautiful! It also came with a covered parking stall so we could finally pick up a car to use in Japan. Not that we would use it much as parking is such a problem in Osaka. But it would be convenient to have one at our disposal from time to time.

Kimiko had previously decided on the furniture package so that had been delivered and installed before we got there. We had decided to leave the two spare bedrooms unfurnished for now and would furnish them later. She wanted to wait until the children started to come. 

We inspected the finished unit and Kimiko was very happy with it. There were still a couple of items that were left to be done in the outside hallway, however our unit was done. We could move in any time.

Kimiko decided that we should first give the unit a thorough cleaning and enlisted Ai's and Mikan's help to do that. We completed that job within three days. Then we moved our things in. My two suitcases and other personal things were quickly moved over. Kimiko's stuff took us a couple of days to move over. After all that was completed, we called her father, brother, Ai and Mikan over for a house warming dinner. Ai and Mikan brought their boyfriends and Mikan's parents also came over. 

Ai brought her boyfriend Tanagawa Masanao, and Mikan brought along her fiancé Fujii Megumi. Masanao and I had first met at dinner at Kimiko's family's home many months ago. Since then 'Masa' had been a regular guest for dinner at least once or twice a week.

Although Mikan introduced her fiancé to me earlier in the evening, Masa dragged him along to introduce him to me and also talk with me before dinner was served.

"Todd-san," Masa asked, "I want Ai to be happy like Kimiko. I know difficult for me. I don't know sometimes. Please help me." 

Megumi chimed in, "Yes, me too. Mikan say she marry me but I know I don't know how make her happy. Sometimes she happy with me, sometimes she upset with me. How you do for Kimiko?"

I thought about the cultural differences that exist between Japanese and American men and I could see where some of our differences lay. 

"Masanao-san, Megumi-san. I think it might be a good idea to ask Kimiko what she likes about the relationship that she has with me."

It was plain to me that both Masa and Megumi were uncomfortable with that idea. Their body language gave away their discomfort as they began to fidget.

"Ah, Todd-san, we just want ask you. Ok?"

"Why don't you want to ask Kimiko?" I smiled as I replied. 

"Ah, ..... most unusual to ask woman. I don't know." Masa mumbled.

"And that is the reason why I want you to ask Kimiko." 

"Huh?"

"Masanao-san. I think the reason why you are uncomfortable with asking Kimiko is because of the way you were raised."

"The way I raised? Please explain."

"In Japan, who is the head of the household?" I asked.

"Man is head." Megumi replied. Masa nodded his head in agreement.

"Does the wife have any say in what the family does?"

"Sometimes. Depends. Man have final say," answered Masa.

"In Japan, what is the wife's role?" I asked.

"To help husband. To have children." Masa responded. 

"Hai. Wife should take care of home," Megumi affirmed.

"And that is the way you were raised."

"Yes. Is wrong?" Masa asked?

"It's not wrong, it's just the way you were raised. I was raised to treat women differently."

"How so?" Megumi asked?

"I was raised to treat women as my equal. To respect them."

"I respect Ai." Masa said firmly. "What do you mean?"

"I agree that you respect Ai. But is she your equal?"

"How can she be my equal? She office clerk. I am buyer. My job more responsibility." Masa said, a little put off by my responses.

"Yes, your job has many responsibilities. And you are probably more knowledgeable about the business than she is. But aren't there things that Ai knows more about than you? I know there are many things that Kimiko knows that I don't know. Can you treat Ai as your partner in life? Will you be able to treat her as your equal if you marry her?"

I could see the light bulb go off in Masa's head. "Todd-san, I see your point...... yes I see. Wakaremasu! (I understand.)" 

Masa turned to Megumi and asked if he understood. Megumi nodded his head. "Wakaremasu. Todd-san, I must treat Mikan as my partner. That mean I treat her as my equal." 

"Hai." I replied.

Masa turned to Megumi, "I think we talk with Kimiko also, nee (yes)?" Megumi nodded his agreement. "Hai." 

As they left to find Kimiko, Tetsuo, Kimiko's brother, came up to hand me a beer. "So, that was serious conversation, yes?" 

I laughed, "Yes it was. Did you hear?" 

"Hai. Every word. I think you right, Todd-san. Like Masa and Megumi, many men raised that way in Japan. My father different. Maybe because my mother die when we very young. So he have to be both father and mother. But is good."

"Your father is a great man. He raised all of you to be good people. I can see that with Ai, you and Kimiko. All of you are good people." I clapped him on his shoulder as I said that.

Tetsuo nodded his head. "Yes, otoosan (father) work hard to make our home good. I think my mother would be very happy." There were tears in his eyes as he said that. 

We rejoined the dinner party and enjoyed the great food that had been prepared by Kimiko, Ai and Mikan. After we had finished eating, Genzo, Kimiko's father, raised his tea cup and proposed a toast.

"Please, everyone. I make toast. I wish Todd-san and Kimi-chan many years of good fortune and happy marriage, and many children! May they have a very happy home." 

After the cups had been drained and refilled, I raised my tea cup and responded, "To my future father, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, and special friends, thank you for coming tonight. You make Kimi-chan and I very happy by being here. Domoo arigato gozaimasu (thank you.) Kimi-chan, would you like to say anything?"

"I want thank you too. You are my family and close friends. You help me make my future husband feel welcome here in country he not from. I always thankful that I know all you. You are always welcome in our home."

-----------------------------------

Later that night after everyone had left and we had cleaned up and put everything away, Kimiko and I were resting in the living room, sipping cups of ocha (hot tea). 

"Anata, I know I don't say often but I want you know that I love you very much." 

"And I love you also very much, Kimi-chan." She leaned over and we kissed. 

"Anata, I hope you not think me bad, but Japanese have fun custom with new house." Kimiko was smiling and giggling as she said that.

"Well, Americans also have a fun thing that they do when they move into a new house also. Do you want me to show you what they do?" I asked.

"If like Japanese do then YES! Show me!" she smiled.

I began to unbutton her dress as she reached for my crotch and rubbed my hard cock through my pants before she unbuckled my belt. We were undressed in a matter of minutes. 

Kimiko was breathless as she asked me excitedly, "which room ...... we do first?" as she stroked my cock.




Kimiko Ch. 03



I kissed her as I moved to place myself between her legs and lay down on her, "I think we should bless this room first! I cannot wait to make love to you, my love."

Kimiko rubbed the head of my cock up and down her hot slit; picking up the escaping dew from her pussy's arousal. As she centered my erection in her opening, I slowly slid forward, descending into her depths as she moaned.

"Anata, I need you love me hard tonight!" she moaned as she thrust her hips upwards to meet each of my down strokes!



Kimiko Ch. 04



Over the next couple of days, we 'christened' each of the rooms in our new apartment several times over! Kimiko's sexual appetite was insatiable! I certainly wasn't going to complain! We made love on the bathroom counter, in the furo (hot tub), on the floors of the two unoccupied bedrooms, in the kitchen, standing in the hallway; everywhere! We even did it on the balcony late one night! That was utterly mind blowing! 

The balcony was the last place that we had not 'blessed' with our love juices! But we corrected that 'oversight' after we returned home from her father's house late one night. We had already changed into yukatas (robe-like kimonos) in anticipation of going to bed. That's our preferred mode of dress before we call it a night. Just our yukatas without anything else on underneath. That makes it simpler when we retire to our bedroom as we would just slip them off before slipping into bed. And after our first time together, we have always slept in the nude together unless it was Kimiko's time of month. 

We were sitting on our balcony enjoying a cup of hot tea. It was close to midnight and the neighborhood was very quiet. I was sitting on one of the reclining loungers with Kimiko sitting in my lap when I quietly told her that we had yet to 'bless' the balcony.

She looked at me with her eyes wide open ovals, "Anata, everyone can see!"

"Yes, but there's no one awake." Our building was still pretty vacant and we didn't have any neighbors yet on our penthouse floor. 

"Anata, I think you very naughty! But I love you." she smiled as she slowly ground her buns into my hardening erection. 

"I love you, too, you beautiful and sexy woman." I replied as we kissed slowly and deeply, savoring the connection between us. 

She turned in my lap to straddle my thighs with her arms around my neck. She kissed me deeply once again as I took the opportunity to untie the sash for her yukata and cupped her soft and beautiful breasts and slowly rolled her nipples. Then I suckled first one then the other as Kimiko moaned her approval softly. "Yes ...... feels so good ......." 

Kimiko then untied the sash to my yukata, revealing my hard erection to her. She stroked my hard cock several times before she kissed me softly, then raised herself up and positioned me at her entrance. Then she slowly slid her warm and wet pussy down, engulfing my hard cock in her magical womanhood! As she bottomed out, Kimiko ground her clit into my pelvis as she moaned softly. Our love making on the balcony went on for more than thirty minutes as Kimiko impaled herself again and again on my hard cock! I strained to push my cock deeper into her on each downward thrust. Then Kimiko suddenly arched her back and hammered her pussy one last time down onto my dick and came! 

It was as if she had triggered a hidden, unknown response in my body. I thrust my hips upward to bury my cock as deeply as I could in Kimiko's warmth! My cock strained upwards and my balls tightened, then unloaded a huge cum into her womb! We clamped our lips together to stifle any cries that we might make as we came about the same time! Our tongues continuing to love each other as our bodies were melded into one.

A few minutes later as we lay on the lounger, Kimiko still impaled on my semi-hard erection, our yukatas open and our naked bodies on display for each other, Kimiko whispered her love for me.

"Anata, I still not believe that I find man like you. I hope I never wake up this dream."

"Its no dream Kimiko. And it is I that am truly blessed to find someone like you."

"We both lucky. I love you, my husband to be."

"And I love you, my wife to be." 

Kimiko giggled and moaned her approval as she ground her pussy down on my cock which was beginning to reawaken, still embedded in her. This time, I laid her down on her back on the lounger and we made slow, passionate love; our overflowing juices dripping from her pussy with each thrust of my hard cock! 

---------------------------------

Before we knew it, it was a week prior to our wedding and we were meeting my parents at the airport. This was their first trip to Japan ever. 

We met them just outside of customs at Kansai International Airport. We had set up one of the spare bedrooms as a guest room as they would be staying with us for the week. Mom and Kimiko were inseparable. It was as if they had known each other for years. Ai and Mikan were their frequent accomplices as they ran around tying down all the loose ends for our wedding and reception dinner. 

Dad and Genzo (Kimiko's father) took an instant liking to each other. He was constantly over at Genzo's house ostensibly to keep out of mom's and Kimiko's hair, but really so the two men could share stories about life in Japan and in California. But each evening, we all got together as an extended family to share dinner and conversation.

It was at one of these dinners that Ai asked my mom what it was like being married to a nissei (second generation Japanese). 

"Well Ai, you must understand that I met Todd's father when I was 19 years old. And it was just after the war. And it was in Sweden, where I am from. He was in the Army and I was helping to entertain the soldiers by dancing with them. He was very shy. I had to pull him to the dance floor otherwise he wouldn't dance!" 

Dad chuckled at that, "but she cured me of that very quickly!" And we all laughed while mom blushed. 

"But Todd's father was such a nice man and very different. In Sweden, we rarely saw Asian men. He was so different but such a gentleman. I liked him from the very first time that I met him."

"Was it love at first sight?" Ai asked?

"Oh no." mom replied. "Actually at first, I have to say that I was just curious about him."

Dad butted in, "Aw, and I thought I swept you off your feet!" And we all laughed at that.

Mom joined in as well in the laughter, "Oh no. But that came later after our fourth or fifth date when you kissed me. Now THAT was something!" And that produced more laughter from all of us.

"Otoosan," Kimiko asked her father, "how you meet okaasan (mother)?"

"So-so-so. How we meet different from most. Your mother was city girl. I am country boy. We meet at work place. Matsushita. I like her but she not interested in me for long time. Then friends make blind date for me and she was date. Then we go out and she have good time. After that she like me. She tell me later she was afraid I would be rough country boy. But you know me. I try be respectful of her. I learn later that she not used to man." 

"So okaasan was city girl?" Kimiko asked?

"Hai. She from Yokohama. But I learn she in Osaka because work. First time away from home. She was, ah....... how you say, worried. She live alone first time her life. Not used to." 

Genzo continued, "Okaasan and I date for long time before friends say we should marry. I ask okaasan and she say I must ask her father. So we go to Yokohama and I ask her father for permission. He say only if I agree to marry her forever. So I say yes. Of course I marry forever. And he say ok. So we marry."

"I know okaasan was very happy." Kimiko said, with a little sadness in her voice.

"Hai, I think okaasan was happy. She would be very happy see you and Tetsuo all grown up. And Ai, you too. And Kimiko, you to marry good man." Genzo said. "But we had good life so don't be sad. Please. Be happy for all us now." 

"Hai otoosan. We all are." Kimiko replied.

To change the tone of our conversation, I asked Ai, "Ai-chan, when will you and Masanao-san marry?"

She blushed a little, "Oh, he not ask yet."

"But if he ask, will you say yes?"

She blushed even more, "Maybe." And we all laughed.

"I don't know. Maybe yes." she smiled. "But he shy. Not always say what he think. So I don't know if he will ask."

Genzo chimed in, "Don't worry. Masanao-san will ask. He need courage." And we all laughed again. "You bring him dinner tomorrow night. We drink sake! Give him courage!" And that brought down the house!

-----------------------------

Our wedding took place in a small neighborhood Buddhist temple. Kimiko and I had visited with the priest several months ago when we first decided to marry and he agreed to perform the ceremonies for us. During the week of our wedding, Kimiko and mom visited several more times to discuss details and to coordinate the event with him. 

The night before our wedding, Kimiko stayed at her father's home. I had yet to see her in her wedding gown although I was told that a family friend who was a seamstress had made it for her, and that it was a traditional wedding kimono. Called an 'Uchikake', it was supposed to be all white and long and flowing. Very formal looking and very appropriate for a blushing bride. I couldn't wait to see Kimiko dressed in her Uchikake.

Tetsuo and Genzo had previously gone with me to fit me for a men's traditional wedding kimono as well. The kimono I rented was full of blacks and greys, and was supposed to be traditional as well. I felt strange in it but Genzo thought that it made me look like Tom Cruise in the movie, 'The Last Samurai.' Tetsuo and I had a good laugh at that!

The morning of our wedding came before I knew it. As I dressed in my formal kimono, I had a few moments to reflect on the chain of events that allowed me to meet Kimiko and had ultimately brought me here. I was just plain lucky. Just lucky to be in the right place at the right time. And we, Kimiko and I, met and became kindred souls. We fit so well.

Dad knocked on my bedroom door to see if I was ready. He was dressed in a formal three piece suit and mom was dressed in a beautiful formal kimono. She had enlisted Ai's help to help her find a kimono to wear and had insisted on buying it as "she planned to be over often" once the grand kids started coming.

The limousine that I had hired for the day arrived and took us to the temple. Genzo and Tetsuo were already there along with Tanagawa Masanao, Ai's boyfriend, and Mikan along with her fiancé, Fujii Megumi. They were all greeting people as they arrived for our wedding and introduced us to so many relatives, neighbors and friends. The small temple was packed by well wishers. I was overwhelmed by the crowd that had gathered.

Before I knew it, it was time to take our place at the front of the temple. Tetsuo lead me to the front of the temple where he and I stood, awaiting Kimiko's arrival and entrance. Mom and dad had been seated previously and were busily chatting with others when the temple became silent as if by an unspoken command. 

I sensed the change immediately and turned my head to the front doors of the temple and there she stood. A vision of such beauty ...... my wife to be ...... Kimiko ........ Words fail to adequately convey how beautiful she looked in her uchikake (wedding kimono). Her radiant smile as she looked at her relatives and friends who now filled the temple to over flowing. Ai stood behind her as her attendant while Genzo stood by her side, offering his arm to steady her and provide her with support if needed. 

As they slowly walked down the center aisle of the temple, Kimiko's eyes met with mine and her smile became even more radiant if that was possible. I know that I probably had a huge smile on my face as well as I waited for Kimiko to make her way to me. 


They stopped just before me. Genzo stepped forward and took my hand in his and joined it with Kimiko's and smiled. "I am happy you marry my daughter. Please take care her always." I was at a loss for words. My voice refused to work as the seriousness of the occasion hit me. Somehow I managed to bow to him, acknowledging his faith and trust in me.

Kimiko smiled and gripped my hand tightly in hers. Then we turned to face the priest who had taken his station in front of us. And the ceremony began. It was a traditional ceremony in a sense but also modern in some respects. There was the traditional burning of incense and the sipping of sake. But there was also an exchange of rings and our first kiss as a married couple. Kimiko had insisted on that during rehearsals and the priest laughed and gave his approval to this modest departure from custom. And before we knew it, we were husband and wife!

The rest of the day and evening went by in a blur for me. We had the reception over at Mikan's parent's restaurant. They opened up the entire second floor banquet hall to accommodate everyone. I just went with the flow and had a good time. Although Kimiko was the center of attraction with all of her relatives and friends there, she made sure that I was with her at all times and introduced to everyone. I caught a little of what she was telling people and was deeply touched as she told everyone that I was the most important person in the world to her.

Kimiko and I finally had a few moments to ourselves as the reception wound down. 

"Kimi-chan, I am very happy that you are my wife."

"Anata, so am I happy you are my husband." 

"Are you tired?" I asked as it had been a long day for both of us.

"Hai, but I am happy tired ...... good tired ......" and we kissed. 

We finally returned to our apartment. Mom and dad were staying at Genzo's house that night to provide us with our privacy on our first night as a married couple. 

We helped each other undress and embraced in our bedroom; our first time naked with each other now as husband and wife. 

"Anata, please make love me tonight." And we did. We bathed each other, then sat in our hot tub soothing our tired muscles with Kimiko impaled on my erection; our arms wrapped around each other. We made love repeatedly that night, only ceasing in the early morning hours as Kimiko's pussy was beginning to get tender and my cock had just about given up. 

"Anata, you make love to me. I like very much. Make me feel so good. Because it is you, and you love me."

I kissed her slowly and longingly. I understood exactly how she felt as I felt the same way. Making love with Kimiko was very special. Very special. To me it is the ultimate high to make love to this wonderful woman who is now my wife. And that is because she loves me and gives her love to me unselfishly and unconditionally. When I cum in her and she climaxes, it is as if our hearts are joined as one.

------------------------------

We finally got up around mid-morning, cleaned up and dressed as everyone was coming over for lunch. Mom and dad were leaving that afternoon to spend the week touring Japan. And we would be leaving the next morning for our honeymoon. In contrast with our reception the night before, lunch was a nice, relaxed affair with Genzo, Ai, Tetsuo, Mikan and mom and dad. Ai and Mikan brought all the food over and we enjoyed every savory morsel that they had prepared.

After we cleaned up, it was time to take mom and dad to the train station where they caught a local train up to Tokyo where they would meet their JTB (Japan Travel Bureau) guide. We got back around five in the afternoon and began to pack our bags for our trip. We decided to be comfortable so packed mostly comfort wear and swim wear. If we needed more, we probably could just buy what we needed there.

We flew to Tahiti the next morning then took an island hopper to Vahine Island which is a private island resort. When we got there and checked into the resort, the accommodations we found took our breath away! Each guest had their own private bungalow which was built on stilts on the water inside a protected lagoon. A wooden walkway joined the bungalow to the main island where most of the hotel's amenities are located including the lobby, several restaurants, a fresh water pool, and spa. 

Our bungalow took our breath away! We saw publicity photos of the hotel on their website and liked what we saw. But reality far exceeded what the photos tried to depict.

Our bungalow was a large one bedroom affair. The side of the bungalow that faced the island was the entry to the unit, a kitchenette, and a large bathroom. The bathroom itself was huge with a bathtub that was large enough to fit two and a walk in shower that had two huge shower heads which could accommodate three or four people if you wanted to. 

The rest of the room opened to the ocean with that end of the room being a set of super wide sliding glass doors that could be left open with screen doors in place to keep the bugs at bay. A large king-sized bed, a large sofa and coffee table made up the balance of the furnishings. Just outside of the glass doors was a balcony with several outdoor loungers. 

It was late afternoon by the time we got to our room and unpacked, so we decided to just walk the hotel property to familiarize ourselves with its layout, have an early dinner, then retire for the evening. With the difference in time zones, our bodies might think that they were still in Japan and we would need to make the effort to get up on time in order to make our boat ride out to our first day trip to our island hideaway. So that's what we did.

The island turned out to be on the smaller side. The hotel took up about a third of the shoreline around the island. The center part of the island was an old cinder cone which was high enough that it caught passing clouds and made them dump part of their moisture in the form of rain. That was probably the reason why a hotel could exist on this small island.

Dinner turned out to be a wonderful meal. The food was truly outstanding. Kimiko had a local reef fish that had been braised. The fish was soft and tender. I had an octopus stew that was made with coconut milk. Both meals were delicious!

We returned to our room and decided to bathe and retire for the evening. The flight from Osaka to Tahiti, then to Vahine Island, had been a long journey and we could benefit from an early evening. So we bathed, changed into robes provided by the hotel and went outside to our balcony to relax and enjoy the moon lit ocean.

It was so surreal. So calming. Kimiko was leaning against the railing of our balcony, looking out over the ocean, "Anata, this is wonderful place. I not see anything like this before."

"Me neither." I said as I came up from behind and embraced her, wrapping my arms around her as I molded my front to her back. Kimiko leaned back and rested her head against my shoulder, then turned her head to me and we kissed. 

As I tenderly cupped her face with one of my hands, she whispered to me, "I love you, my husband. Thank you for loving me."

I turned her so we faced each other, then untied my robe and then hers, and hugged her tightly to me. Kimiko responded in kind, then reached between us to grab my erection and slowly stroked me to a fully hard state. She rubbed the head of my cock to spread the precum that began to ooze from my slit. 

"Anata, I want always you make love to me ....... please?"

What a turn on! I guided Kimiko's arms so that she had a firm grip around my neck. Then I cupped her buttock and lifted her slightly. As she raised her legs to wrap them around my waist, her pussy rotated slightly to open towards me and my hard cock slid between the lips of her pussy as if that were the most natural thing to do. 

We both moaned our enjoyment at our coupling, and then began our dance of love. 

----------------------------

Amazingly we got up the next morning with little difficulty. I think getting to sleep at a reasonable time enabled our internal body clocks to reset. We were up by seven in the morning, ate breakfast and had changed to our beach wear by eight thirty. We walked down to the pier fronting the hotel and met our boat skipper who would be shuttling us to and from the secluded island that we had reserved.

'Skip' as he called himself explained, "There are three islands that we use that are within an hour's ride of here. They are all off the beaten track so we'll provide you with a satellite phone that you can use if you need to call us. It's been preset to call the hotel so all you need to do is press this button which turns it on and dials automatically."




Kimiko Ch. 04



Skip went on to show us on his handy map approximately where our island for the day was located as well as the weather forecast, which called for a mostly sunny day. "Make sure you have sunscreen with you." was his advice. Luckily we had anticipated this and had picked up a large tube of the stuff the night before from the hotel's sundry store.

Skip ran us out to the island shortly thereafter. On the way out, Skip told us a little about the island that we had reserved for the day. Being a little more than an atoll, it offered excellent snorkeling opportunities. However since snorkeling was not something that Kimiko and I were proficient at, he recommended that we just stick close to shore. 

We really had not planned on doing much swimming so weren't disappointed. We had actually just wanted to find a place where we could be alone with each other; not be disturbed nor interrupted by anyone or anything. 

The island itself was a little more than a large sandbar with a bunch of trees and bushes here and there. The hotel had erected a small beach shack that we could use to store our things and the cooler full of food and drinks that Skip would be dropping off with us. And there were beach chairs, loungers, and other amenities that we could use that had been stored there by the hotel.

Skip nudged his boat up to the beach and we jumped off. He carried our cooler up to the beach shack and showed us where all the equipment was stored and made sure we knew how to operate the satellite phone before he pushed off and left us. 

Skip's boat was gradually disappearing from our sight when I turned to Kimiko and suggested that we get comfortable and asked if she needed help with her sunscreen. She gave me a really sassy look and a big smile, as she started to take off her swim suit, "I need you make sure my body protected. Ok?"

She stretched her nude body in front of me as my dick leapt to attention! As she turned, she grabbed a beach mat and laid it on the sandy beach in front of the beach house, I shucked my shorts and was similarly attired in a second. As I came to her, Kimiko placed one arm around my neck as her other hand grasped my erection and slowly stroked me.

Before I could even kiss her, she turned to her beach mat and laid face down upon it. "Sunscreen please?" she asked, turning her head to smile at me while she wiggled her delightfully sexy ass at me!

I knelt beside her and began to apply her sunscreen in generous blobs to her back. I massaged the lotion into her skin slowly, dragging out the sensuous massage which had her moaning her approval. I covered every inch of her back, her buttocks and legs. I even made sure that even the crack of her ass and the area around her cute rosebud were protected from the sun. 

When Kimiko flipped over to lay on her back, I could see the flush of her arousal; her face and chest was pink. I glanced at her pussy and could see her pubic hair glistening from her excitement! I moved to straddle her hips in order to apply sunscreen to her chest. However Kimiko couldn't wait. She spread her legs widely, grabbed my hard erection and pulled me to her needy pussy!

"Anata, please ....... in me ...... I need you love me ....... please ....."

I could hardly wait myself and had to fight the intense need to cum immediately! The feeling of my cock descending into Kimiko's vagina was so powerful that it took all of my concentration to delay my eventual surrender to my lover, even for the minute or so that it took for Kimiko to cum. 

And cum she did! She dug in her heels behind my thighs and arched her hips upwards, enabling me to slip even deeper into her. Normally not one to be very vocal, she surprised both of us with a scream, announcing her orgasm to the world! She hugged me tightly to her as I could feel her vagina tighten around my shaft! At that moment I surrendered myself to our passion! Arching my back, thrusting my hips to bury my hard dick into her as deep as I could, I unleashed so much cum into her that my balls ached afterwards.

I whispered, "I love you Kimi-chan. I love you."

She began to cry as she voiced her feelings, "Anata ....... I love you ........ thank you for love me ......... you make me so happy ........ sometimes hard for me to say right words ......... I not good ....... but please know I love you always."

"Kimi-chan, I will always love you. You make me complete. I want you with me always." We kissed softly, with my semi-flacid penis still embedded in her vagina, our combined love juices slowly dribbling out of her. 

We eventually got around to finishing the application of sunscreen to our bodies but otherwise spent our day making love. We found every excuse and took every opportunity to make love. It was fun and playful, and it was exciting and bordering on exhibitionism; even though there wasn't anyone there to spy on us, thank heavens. Kimiko, being the proper Japanese woman that she was, would have died with embarrassment if there had been anyone.

After our initial love making, we decided to walk along the beach and sort through the drift wood and sea shells that had washed ashore. Kimiko had bent over and was sorting through some sea weed. She spied me admiring her sexy rear end and wiggled her ass at me. Not to pass up an opportunity, I took her from behind! 

She became the aggressor while we were wading through some tidal pools that we had found nearby. I had kneeled down next to one of the ponds in order to see if I could find out where a large crab had crawled off to when Kimiko knelt beside me and started to stroke my cock. As soon as I was hard, she made me sit down on a nearby rock then impaled herself on my erection; hammering her wet and warm pussy down on my dick until she came with a gush of her fluids! 

Later as we were having lunch, Kimiko asked if she could try a new cocktail. Being inquisitive, I asked what kind of cocktail she had found. She walked over to the cooler and took out a can of lemon lime soda, opened it and took a mouthful. Then she grabbed my cock, wanked me a couple of times to get me harder, then took me into her mouth where it was met by the cold effervescence of the soda! Several mouthfuls of soda later, I added my cum to Kimiko's soda.

She drank it down and smiled, "first time I try lemon lime crème soda!" she giggled! "I like! You like, too?"

It was quite a honeymoon! If Kimiko hadn't been on the pill, she would definitely have ended up pregnant! As it turned out, we became very accustomed to being in each other's presence without any clothes on. So much that it became our mode of dress whenever we were by ourselves where ever we happened to be. 

Kimiko's most favorite place to relax became my lap, arms around my neck, her pussy impaled on my hard cock, with her legs wrapped around my waist. Not moving very much, she would rest herself against me, her head on my shoulder and my arms around her. She would flex her hips occasionally to rub her clit on my pelvis. 

As she put it, "I feel you in me. Make me feel good. Your arms around me. Make me feel safe and you want me. Both make me feel loved." Not that I didn't enjoy this myself. Heck, I loved to have Kimiko in my lap like this! 

Our trip came to its end all too soon. However not before we decided to do this at least once a year. Maybe at different resorts, but definitely someplace where we could make love wherever we wanted to, and whenever we wanted to.
