Mr. Kane called Kita into his office. Kita tells herself. "Just prepare for the worst and then make your case." She said, heading down to the massive office opposite the hallway from her office. Kita had been here a hundred times and had the same reaction every time: nervousness. She didn't know why, maybe because he chose to promote her over some of the other ladies for the position she held. Kita reached the closed door to Mr. Kane's Office. Her heartbeat was shared, her palms were sweaty, and her stomach fluttered with nerves. "I never ask for anything or complain. So please let this go well." She took one last moment to prepare for battle and raised her hand to knock. "Come on in." Kita opened the door and stepped inside, closing the door behind her. She glanced at the desk; she found him sitting back in his chair, eyeing her with what seemed to be a mixture of amusement. He got up slowly and came around the desk. She surreptitiously rubbed her sweaty palm on her skirt. "
Ken had never before introduced the family to a girl. Kita was the first girl he had ever done that with, even though it was over video conferencing. So they knew she was important to him and that he had deep feelings for her. His sister sat there smiling at him, thinking that he didn't have a clue or an inkling as to what was happening. Ken sat across from their sister, his thoughts floating off to Kita's face as his sister asked him about Kita. Ken thought that he was glad that Kita wasn't the spontaneous type and that they didn't have a normal relationship because he had no idea how he would fit her into his busy life. His sister questioned him. "What are you thinking about? Ken, are you being pure and loyal?" With a confused look on his face, he said. "Pure and loyal?" "Faithful, silly! I know how much you like girls, Ken." "Yes! Of course I am! I do like girls, and this is not easy." He said, stretching his eyes as he continued. "And yes, I've been tempted many, many times.
Kita couldn't wait to see him again! But for now, she took the soft pillow the flight attendant gave her, putting it behind her head, and closed her eyes as the plane glided amongst the beautiful clouds. Sometime later, she awakened and ate her Korean meal, which reminded her of the breakfast Lyle had made back home a year ago. It was the first and last time she had eaten such delicious food. Kita rubs her content stomach. She was full and satisfied. She sat back and closed her eyes again, thinking of Lyle and looking forward to the time she would spend with him. When Kita woke up, she had only 3 hours before landing in South Korea. She decided to pass the time looking at a movie; Kita couldn't decide what she wanted to watch, so she thought about the passenger up front and decided to watch his movie Rush Hour Two. That movie was so funny, and it only made her like Chris Tucker and Jackie Chan more than she did before. Kita only had 45 minutes to go before this plane landed. She got
Her nap was more enjoyable than she could imagine; it seemed like a dream, and the bed was very comfortable. As she looked around the room, Kita knew she wasn't dreaming. She drew the drapes as the view of Gangnam came through her window. Kita smiled as she looked at the bright lights. I'm here; this is wonderful. Kita gathered her things to take a warm shower; after experiencing the soft water of Korea against her skin, she dried off and put on her robe. She walked over to the closet and thought about what to wear. She searched through the ten dresses of different styles she had packed for several occasions hanging up. Kita didn't want to get the style wrong; this meeting was crucial. It would be her first meeting with Lyle's mother, Ms. Cole. The one she thought would be the most appropriate for meeting someone's mother and potential mother-in-law was a dress she had just recently purchased. It was a very classy 1940's 1940s-style navy blue sailor swing dress trimmed in tan with a
"Yes, ma'am, I understand. Sorry if I offended you. It's just that he asked me to call him Lyle. But I do understand your point, and once again. I apologize." From then on, Kita had to become conscious of how she referred to him, though it was uncomfortable for her to call him Lyle, Kenneth. But out of respect for his mother, she would do it while remaining warm and sincere. Suhi interjected almost immediately after Kita finished speaking. "Yes, Kenneth explained his situation to us. When he got home, didn't his mother?" "Well....yes, he did, but I needed to hear and understand it from Kita's perspective." "Yes, ma'am, I do understand. If it were my son, I would want to know about someone who would also open their home to a stranger. This was a first and rare occurrence for me and my staff. Trust me, I had my reservations about the decision I had to make that night. As time passed, trying to do my best to assist him, I could sense that he was a respectful young man and very manne
Kita sighed deeply, thinking. “Oh, how I wish my mind was working ahead of my heart. I was so consumed with missing Lyle. I hadn’t given much thought to the past and all that I had learned later about how Ms. Cole felt when I, in the past, had agreed to marry her son. I must have pushed entirely to the back of my mind what his mother had done to prevent that from happening. Kita's nerves were now pins and needles; her heart was beating fast. His mother clears her throat before speaking, and Kita looks up at Ms. Cole, giving her wrapped attention as she rubs her sweaty palms together. “I know this may be a little forward.” Ms. Cole said as she spoke, continually staring at Kita curiously. Because she had never met Kita face-to-face in the past, all she knew was that her son was smitten with a girl of another nationality on the island. Who was not like him in any shape or form? Ms. Cole had preferred her son to marry someone from his European side or Asian descent. But that wasn’t who
Kita felt insulted, but she was not about to break her with those cheap kinds of remarks. So Kita smiled saying. "I agree Ms. Cole. That's the same thing I thought. A handsome, well-dressed, respectable man like him, what could he want from me? And that made me put forth even more effort, to do my best to assist him. I could sense that he was a respectful young man and very manner-able. Frankly, ma'am, your son was distressed and fearful about being in the situation he found himself in, so I felt compelled to help him.” Kita humbly explained. Suhi starts laughing. “Were his eyes large like two silver dollars?” Kita smiled, keeping Ms. Cole's feelings in mind. “Well.....let's just say he was agitated.” When Kita sees Ms. Cole's facial expression turn bitter, her body tense up, not knowing if she is upset at her or something else. Kita had no idea if she had crossed the line as she tried to make sure to walk a tightrope around Ms. Cole. “His company in Australia is so incompetent!
That’s when he opened the partially closed front door, and Kita looked up. Kenneth burst out in an excited tone. “Oh my god! Ki..Ki...Kita! Is it you?!” He said with his eyes widened with a surprised expression on his face. He said it so loud his mother and sister heard the excitement in his voice as Suhi smiled at her mother. “Yes, Lyle, it's me!” Kita blurted out without giving the name change a second thought as she stood at the Cole Family front door threshold smiling. Ms. Cole frowned upon hearing her call her son Lyle. “Mom, you got to give her time to get used to calling him Kenneth. I know it’s not easy for her to make that adjustment.” “Why not! That’s his name!” Ms. Cole recanted. “You know they went through a lot and not good stuff when she used to call him Kenneth.” “I don’t care! If you claim to like him, you like everything about him, especially my son’s name!” “Alright, mother. I got it.” Suhi said, ending her efforts to reason with her mother. Meanwhile, Ken
But that's okay. Because by the time you get back to work in 6 months, the fans will have more than enough time to calm down. So don't worry about it too much; we will feed positive news about the band members' comeback to the media and netizens. Now let's talk about you, Kenneth, s, I since you; sincere now, we're thinking of how we could relieve you of some of the responsibility you've had for a very long time. That way, you can focus on your wife and possibly a family shortly. The band members have always been a significant group to this SME. So the staff and I have been thinking since this group has four other single men. Along with the fact that Minsoo is 21 years old, he's more than ready to take the lead truly. Of course, Kenneth, you will always be our lead singer; that will never change. But you remain the face of the group; that's where we will make the adjustments. We will now give that responsibility to someone else. Should I say we were thinking of it? Sharing that res
Scented candles burned throughout the house, sending a hint of cinnamon apple into the air. After her shower she spent extra time on her hair and makeup, her heart pounded with excitement and anticipation. As if this was some sought of a first date or something. Kita laughed at how her emotions were responding. Kita had planned and prepared for this day for months, and everything was set. She'd chosen a sexy crisscross open dress, that went down to her lower back. The purple silk pencil dress with silver and purple stiletto strap heels. Applying lipstick in the same shade of racy purple as her dress, Kita took one last measuring look in the mirror before she headed out of the bedroom into the dining room of their home. ************* Kenneth opens the door standing in the foyer in amazement that he was actually home. Tears enter the creases of his eyes as he just looked around, breaking his attention, he heard the sound of heels echoing off the wood floors in their home. Kita walk
"Where is Kenneth?" The Manager asked the band members."He's gone on vacation," Minsoo responded happily."I mean, we're on vacation? He gets the freedom to go these days and doesn't tell anyone where he's going!" Manager Choi muttered under his breath."Well.....we don't know. We're leaving tomorrow ourselves on a group vacation." Tevin told him."Look, if he contacts you, let him know we have his dates for the military. I emailed and texted him, but he didn't respond. So if you hear from him, tell him to contact me."Minho nodded his head. The minute he left the room, they all fell out laughing. Shouting in unison. "Here we come, the Bahamas!"***********The sun was beaming. It was 90 degrees today. Kenneth splashed Kita with the crystal blue cool water as she tried to run away from him. The happy couple was back in the Bahamas, on the beach, swimming and having fun!After much play with one another, they walked hand in hand to rest as they laid themselves on their beach towels un
The plane glided over Tokyo, Japan; Kita felt her stomach quiver from sheer excitement. The city lights were brilliantly bright despite the tumultuous weather. Once the plane landed and Kita entered the airport, she brushedher hands against her slacks, making sure everything was still in place.She glanced down at the silk hot pink blouse neatly tucked into her black skinny-leg pants and stiletto black shoes. Her cold, black hair was semi-straight with deep, large waves parted on the side. With her very natural make-up and fuchsia lipstick that accent her whole look.She glanced around the airport and uttered, 'I'm finally here in Japan.' This was the first time she had visited this country. It was a rainy night in Tokyo, and the snacks on the plane left her slightly hungry as she started lugging her luggage through the airport. She had to find a taxi in this pouring rain with no umbrella.Kita tries to brace herself for the pouring rain as she steps outside to flag down a taxi. Tryi
“It's at 12noon.” Manager Choi muttered under his breath as he walked away. Later that afternoon Tevin pulled Kenneth on the side. “Do you know who has been questioning me about Kita and you?” Tevin whispered. “Let me guess. Manager Choi?” Kenneth eyes became slits as he looked at Tevin. “I can tell you this much. Before we came here to Japan I've been having this strange feeling someones been following me. I brushed it off as fans, but it didn't seem right. Something about it made me uneasy, even the way they rushed us here to Japan didn't sit right with me.” Kenneth confessed to Tevin. “Well, he didn't say he was spying on you or anything. It was like he wanted to know what was going on with you and Kita. You know, like how's your relationship going.” Tevin try not to worry Kenneth any more then what he is already. “Hey, look, Kita is coming here tonight! I need to get the manager off my back. I'm convinced they're trying to find out what's going on with me and Kita. When I told
"I'll be there soon! Sarangehae!" Kita called out. After seeing Kenneth off, she got dressed and went straight to work! Putting the proposal together for the tourist division of Seoul, Korea, was far more intricate. They only had one travel agency that was fluent in the English language. So Kita felt excellent about getting the contract as a travel agent representative of Seoul, Korea. Kita stood up after sitting for several hours. She needed to take a stretch. Her new work was the opposite of her job in the Baha Mar. Most of the time at her previous job, she stood on her feet for hours. Now.... she's become sedentary, looking down at her hips. It's been several months now that she's been married, and her hips are starting to spread, which means she's picked up a little weight. Doing just the opposite of Ken when he's working, he loses weight. Know wonder Kenneth kept whispering, 'plush.' When they made love this morning, Kita chuckled, thinking about him and how he made her smile
"Kita!........Kita! Babe, are you home?" Kenneth called out. He smelled the delicious aroma coming from the kitchen, the food on the stove. Not having much appetite after that depressing meeting, he looked in the pots anyway. Ken left the kitchen and walked to the back of the house, peeping his head into her office, only to find she wasn't there. Kenneth glanced down at his computerized watch. It was almost 7 pm. Unbuttoning his shirt and jeans, he headed to the bedroom, getting undressed to take a bath. After his much-needed bath, he went to the kitchen to fix him a plate of food. Ever since their wedding, he wanted that conch salad included with his meals. Looking in the refrigerator, he saw his darling wife wrapped it up, waiting for him. He was smiling because he felt like he had the best wife in the world. He was drinking his glass of wine with his salad. Kenneth tried to think about how he and Kita would work out his absence for almost four months. He knew that was not going
Kenneth's touch caused her nipples to respond; he immediately took in a mouth full of her whipped cream breast. She was sending sensations instantly to her lucrative treasure, which his fingers tenderly touched and massaged, giving her pleasure. Kita opened her eyes and looked down as Kenneth's mouth was enthralled with her nipple. She eased the can of whipped cream from his hands and began to spray Kenneth from his head to his chest. He was protesting, throwing his hands up. "Wait, babe! You're going crazy with the cream!" He chuckled. With a titillating laugh and a spark in her eyes. "I said I wanted an order of Cole, with Kenneth on top." He was like a delighted little boy, which made him downright irresistible. Laughing, Kita poked him in the ribs. The fun of lovemaking rushed into playful wrestling with one another, wildly kissing, heavy petting, and caressing one another. The passion between the two of them was sweetly exhilarating. Kenneth lifted Kita in arms in the middle
Kenneth and Kita entered the terminal of Korean Air, the airline that would be flying them back to Incheon Airport in South Korea. Ken grins at Kita as she snickers at him as he stands by their seats. Kenneth was putting their carry-on luggage in the compartment above. "What do you want to ask me?" Kita smiles up at him. She could always tell when he wanted to say something to her. "So......Kita, when I have my first solo performance, can you meet me in my dressing room before I go out on stage?" Kenneth asked, wishing she would say yes. Kita smiled with her eyebrows furrowed. "Don't you think that's a little risky? I don't think so, at least not yet, babe.....I tell you what. I'll be the beautiful colored flower amongst the rest of your many screaming fans." Kenneth blushes..... "I just thought I'd give it a shot." As he softly pinched her cheek. "I'm sure I'll spot you. You'll be the same as me but different from everyone else." Kenneth jokingly said, even though his words were
