When we got down to the riverbank we were greeted with the rather serene and picturesque sight of Kalia sitting at the edge of the docks, the grey skinned, pink haired beauty lazily swinging her leg back and forth and trailing her toes in the water.
Completely nude and hugging her other leg to her abundant chest, she was staring down at the reflection in the water as she waited for us, thinking about something that clearly had her feeling... a little somber.
Her usually vibrant expression was dimmer than usual, and the life and joy that usually filled her every action wasn't as plentiful as before, though when she heard us approaching that same smile still graced her face.
It thinned for a moment as she saw me walking beside her mate, yet at the same time understanding dawned in those pink eyes of hers as she looked back at us both, not saying a word just yet.
She was still sitting there, basking in the gentle breeze and the fleeting warmth of the setting sun, and even as I shed my clothing and lowered myself beside her she just kept quiet, staring at me for a few seconds before turning back towards the water.
Interestingly enough Inik kept quiet to, even going as far as to slide into the water and drift a little ways away from us to start, just 'laying' on her back and staring up at the clouds as she waited for us to eventually join us.
"Are you feeling alright, Camara?"
Taking a breath and looking at the reflections in the water, I noticed that she had stopped swinging her leg, allowing the surface to remain relatively calm and making it easy to see that she was staring at me via the reflection, which... helped alleviate some of the 'pressure' I was feeling.
"Not entirely, no."
The tightness in my chest and the emptiness in my stomach made themselves acutely known at that moment, coming back with a vengeance as I was asked directly by someone I knew actually cared because she really did care for me.
"I can't help but worry about... everything. I don't know who they're fighting, where they're going to be fighting, if they have everything they need, if they'll get ambushed, what they can or can't do to keep safe...
I don't know when they'll be back, what state they'll be in when they get back, how they'll feel or what they'll need... but what is really eating at me is... it's just... the way we were when we separated. I... I just..."
Biting my cheek and dragging in another breath, I felt my heart squeeze painfully tight, to the point that my vision darkened and swam a little as I sat there; all of the fears I had were dancing around my mind right now, bringing me to this point and making me feel completely worthless.
"They'll be more than alright, Camara... Dama was former military and has been constantly improving because of Mama, and Aethisia is their child, so all of the good that they both have to offer is in her. Physically they'll be completely and utterly fine.
As for what sort of terms you two separated on, I'm not entirely privy to that but I have a feeling that whatever it was it was mostly Aethisia's 'fault', and therefore this time is going to be more than helpful for you both."
My sister's typical warmth was still there, but there was a sort of firm, hard twinge to her voice that cut through my emotions and brought me back down to reality; when she added "And besides that, the last time they were both allowed to roam free they ended up coming back with more than what they were meant to, so I doubt this time will be any different."
The reminder of Heila and now Gertrude brought some of my negative emotions back since that was part of what had me so wound up, yet at the same time I couldn't help but chuckle as I replied "That is part of what had us separating on bad terms..."
"Ah. That... makes sense."
Finally turning to look at me, Kalia studied my face for a moment before reaching over and pulling my head down to her chest, resting my cheek against her boob and murmuring "You and I both know our stupid, meat headed sister loves to chase new things and make everything 'hers', but never before has she been made to realize that she can 'lose' something too. Have some faith in her, because we both know she hates losing more than she loves making things hers."
The heat of her skin, steady thudding of her heart and the warm smell wafting off of her body had me turned on, but her words were what were really getting to me right now, making my erection rather painful as I nodded slightly and just sunk deeper into her embrace.
"She'll be back before you know it, and when she comes back she's going to be better. How, I have no idea, because figuring her out is impossible despite her being so 'simple'... but she'll be better. Aethisia always is improving, in one way or another."
As suddenly as it they had arrived they were fading away, my negative emotions getting melted by her warmth and brushed aside by her quiet murmurings, being replaced with gratefulness and of course... a surplus of lust.
Patting my cheek once and letting out an exasperated sigh, Kalia looked down at me and asked "In the water or out?", to which I asked "Both..?" and immediately earned an eye roll... but not a 'no', which meant I was being given what I wanted.
So I was pushed away from her and swiftly mounted, my curvaceous sister straddling my lap and staring at my penis with interest as she measured it against herself, seeing how far I was going to go before she swallowed me down with her immaculate lower lips.
