“The group of girls was huddled in a circle in an effort to keep warm when I arrived. The cold spell caught them unprepared after the nice sub-tropical Lowveld weather of Nelspruit. Sis was as glad to see me as I was to see her, and ran to greet me. I told Sis how I missed her and how bored I had been for the past few days.
Then Sis called over to another girl with red hair that was still huddled in the group, and introduced her to me. Sis explained to me that her red-headed teammate would stay with us until Sunday because her parents were overseas and would only return on Sunday. They tossed their luggage into the car and the two of them returned to the group to say goodbye to the rest of the team before we left for home. As they talked, I noticed that the redhead was the tallest on the team, probably five foot ten. She told me later that she played in the goal scorer position because of her height.
“The redhead’s freckled face did not detract anything from her beauty, but rather, enhanced her looks. She had an almost straight nose and beautiful ice blue eyes. I could not make out her body shape because she wore a team blazer over her tracksuit.
“Sis sat next to me and the redhead got seated in the middle of the backseat to be able to chat with both Sis and me. On the way home, I constantly checked her out in the rear view mirror. She caught me a few times and eventually blew me a playful kiss.
“I started playing around with the idea of having sex with the redhead because somewhere I heard that, on average, women with red hair have sex more often than other women. I tried to figure out ways to get her alone, but couldn’t think of any excuse to get Sis away. I could try my luck at night, as she would probably sleep on her own in the guest room, but I needed a way to probe her willingness to go beyond blowing me a kiss. The kiss was at least a good start.
“Just then, Sis asked if it would be okay if she left Redhead in my care for the entire afternoon because she had to go to school for math extra classes. It was one of the reasons why the bus departed soon after the closing ceremony rather than the next morning. I thought that I owed Sis a favor for this turn of events. Redhead blew me another kiss when I looked in the rear-view mirror and I became aware of my penis showing interest in the situation.
As I took the last corner into our street, Redhead received a message on her phone. Shortly thereafter, she checked with Sis if she was available for a games night party at her home next Saturday. Sis said that she was available and that it sounded like fun. Next, Sis placed her hand comfortingly on my shoulder and said that she felt sorry for me, that I’d have to deal with my boredom while she had fun.
“Redhead picked up on Sis’ hint and said I was also invited and I thought I should nominate Sis for president if there is a chance. She was so considerate as to hint that I would be home alone. Unfortunately, I already arranged with Nathan that we would return to Stellenbosch on Thursday and had to decline the friendly offer.
“When we got home, Redhead immediately noticed the PlayStation with the Final Fantasy CD box next to it and asked if I was playing. She then admitted that she was a big Final Fantasy fan and immediately asked if she could join me in the game. Suddenly, the idea of playing Final Fantasy sounded like fun, especially with my plans in mind. After I carried her and Sis’ luggage to their rooms, we started a new game. We asked if Sis also wanted to play, but she said she needed to prepare for her extra classes.
“I chose a warrior character from the Hume race and called him Cowboy. Redhead chose a red-headed red mage from the Mithra race, whom she named, Mithrada, as her character. Sis soon saw that Mithrada and I enjoyed playing together and that she would call Mom for a quick chat and to tell her that they were home. When she disconnected the call, she offered to make toasted sandwiches for lunch.
“Sis had to leave for her extra classes by the time we finished our meals and asked me to take her in the car. She asked Mithrada if she wanted to tag along for the trip, but Mithrada declined because she said that she needed to unpack and sort her stuff out because she bundled everything into her suitcase when they left Nelspruit. I was disappointed at this turn of events, thinking that Mithrada was avoiding being alone with me.
“Again, Sis apologized for leaving her in my care, but Mithrada insisted that she was very happy to play Final Fantasy with me because she could already see that she could learn some game strategy and techniques from me.
“I drove Sis to school and on my return, I saw that Mithrada brought her duvet to the TV room to cover her legs. I decided to turn the gas heater on to heat up the room. I regarded it a waste to turn it on for me alone, but I decided it suitable for two people, especially if one was a guest.
“I could also see additional benefits if we heated up the room because it would create a reason to remove some of our layers of clothes. The TV room was slowly getting warmer and was boosted by the additional warmth of the winter sun which shone through the sliding door. Before long, I felt ready to get rid of the outer layers of my clothing.
“I started by casually taking off my warm coat and threw it onto the chair closest to me. Mithrada didn’t keep me waiting and took off her coat shortly afterwards, not as indifferent as I was — she pretended to be a stripper. When I next removed my sweater top, I also attempted a seductive routine. She did the same when she removed her next garment shortly afterwards. It later felt like a competition, to see who could remove the garment in the most sensual way. You could cut the sexual tension with a knife after a while.
“We were over-enthusiastic and soon, I was left with just my denim and shirt and she with her denim and blouse, even though the room was still on the cool side. I offered to go and make hot chocolate for us, it would at least buy some time for the heater and sun to heat up the room even more and help to provide heat from the inside.
“When I returned later with the two steaming mugs, Mithrada was sitting with the duvet pulled up to under her chin. Her bare arm extended to take the cup of hot chocolate with me. It was strange because she was wearing a long-sleeved blouse before I left for the hot chocolate. I could only guess that she stripped from it as well, which meant that she might have been sitting there in her bra only. I recalled her playful kisses and my penis started to rise again.
“I decided to act as if I didn’t notice the change and finished drinking the hot chocolate in silence. When she was done she handed me her cup. I took it from her and put it down next to mine on the TV cabinet.
“When I turned around to pick up the controller to continue playing, my jaw dropped to the ground. It seemed as if Aphrodite herself was standing in front of me with measurements that should be close to 36-24-36. Her red sleeveless blouse was one of those with long ends that could be fastened with a knot under her breasts. It seemed as if not a single button was fastened and all that held the ends together was the loose knot above her navel. I couldn’t see the gore of a bra and decided that she was not wearing a bra at all. With the amount of cleavage visible, and I was surprised that her nipples or even part of her areolas weren’t peeking out at all.
