Thorn between episode 59
TITLE: TORN BETWEEN
WRITTEN BY OGECHI ALABI
LIFE GOES ON 11
The resort was the most beautiful place Eucharia had seen. She had stayed in hotels but this beach’s serenity was amazing. It set the right mood. She dropped her bags and went out to explore. Adim smiled as he could see she was relaxed and exhibited her childlike attitude which only surfaces when she is happy.
Later that night, she did things that amazed him, she walked into the bathroom while he was bathing and washed her mouth. She did not appear shy at all and he was a bit worried. He expected her to be after such a long time but she wasn’t. Had she been with someone else?
She changed into the lingerie Njideka gave her, they came in three colours. She wore the red one that night. She allowed Adim to look at her well before she climbed the bed to sleep, she didn’t go under the duvet.
Adim was reading but her sight distracted him. He peeped from the top of the newspaper he was reading to watch what she was doing. He wondered what was happening as she wore the lingerie and climbed the bed. She was subtly daring him. He had some tricks up his sleeves too. He came prepared to give her the weekend she would never forget. But this new her would cause trouble. He had been patient and deserved a good reward, but the confidence she was exhuming was enticing. He dropped the papers and came to bed.
He turned off the light as he lay on the bed with her. “I like this new you. Your body is glowing and your shape is so inviting. You know it has been a long time and I am so excited…..”
“Shhhhhhh”
Eucharia silenced him with a kiss on the mouth and then moved to his body as she took off his pyjamas. She went down on him, but Adim stopped her. He said, “You don’t need to do this. This isn’t you.”
“You are right, I don’t know how to.”
“Come here, let me make you feel good. Just relax, I am sure you will enjoy it.”
Eucharia lay down while he removed the lingerie and he did things to her and she felt things she could not explain. Some things Adim did to her, she had watched but others, she could not understand them. He used his hand, his mouth and his knee to give her pleasure. He found her Gspot, she thought it was a myth. She tried her best to hold back the moans and excitement before she exploded but failed woefully then she announced her orgasm. Adim’s grin was wider than his face. He was happy he could give her this much pleasure. He hoped and prayed she would not ask if it was what he did with Thelma. He didn’t want her name to come up that weekend. When he entered her, he felt her wetness tell him to welcome home. There was something sweet about being inside her and it hadn’t changed at all.
They spent most of the weekend indoors although they went on walks along the beach and they met people having fun. They did not interact because they preferred each other’s company. Adim felt complete as a man. He had Eucharia back and he felt he could be himself with her again. Keeping secrets had weighed him down, and he was done with it. He hoped she would not judge him on his past.
When they returned to Port Harcourt, Adim had his room but spent most of his nights in Eucharia’s bed. They shared the same bathroom and now she stood stark naked in his presence. He loved that he could come behind her and play with her titles. She brought a new rave of excitement. He refused to allow her to please him, but she did not mind. It gave her time to learn more and perfect her skills.
Njideka wanted the details on how it went but was disappointed Eucharia didn’t use her skills. Eucharia wanted to improve on them. She was someone who believed in perfection. She knew the things she could do and those she couldn’t. She desired to know how certain activities felt and why the girl in the movie reacted the way she did. Was it real pleasure? She felt cheated though, she would have explored with Adim instead of him exploring with others. She was bidding her time.
When she was ready, she went to the village to visit Mama. Adim came to join her on Friday. She knew they would have the house to themselves there as they would be the only ones around. Nda Flora came on her own to see her mother. Eucharia attended to Mama that night after they had all eaten. She excused herself and went home to prepare for the night. Adim came back too. She was in the bathroom when he took off his clothes and joined her. They started from there to the bedroom. Eucharia knelt and gave Adim a bj. He couldn’t believe how good she was. He never thought she would do this. He picked her up and laid her on the bed. She waited for him to climb in before she stayed on top. Adim’s eyes were wide open when she did it. He could not take the pleasure and exploded. He could not look at Eucharia in the eyes anymore. He could not believe what just happened, she performed like a pro.

Adim discovered that whenever Eucharia took the lead, he didn’t last. It worried him. He did not want her to find him inadequate to please her. After a few weeks, Eucharia was not so excited about sex anymore. She did not give him the treats she had exposed him to. He had to ask why and she replied, “I wanted you to know I was capable of giving you pleasure too. I am busy at work and come back exhausted most times. Sex is the last thing on my mind when I have to cook my meal and attend to other things. I enjoy it, but my body is tired sometimes. Can we push it to weekends, I won’t work on Saturdays so we can have the entire weekend to ourselves.”
“But that is just twice a week. How can I sleep beside you and not want you? It is not possible. I will try not to be too demanding but it will be more than twice.” Eucharia agreed. “How did you learn these your skills especially when you are on top, I have never experienced that before.”
“I will not tell you. All I will say is this; Adim if you ever betray me again, I will never forgive you and I will ruin you. I have given you my heart and done things to please you. If you ever lay with another woman, God will strike you there. Anything you want, tell me and I will learn how to do it.”
“At this rate, I swear, if I ever go with another woman let God strike me dead. But Eucharia, I hope another man has not ….”
“Another man? God forbid. But if you betray me after putting your ‘amu’ in my mouth and God does not kill you, I will give my body to another man. That is it.”
“Eucharia!”
“Adim!”
