“Oh, you did. If you hadn’t accomplished your task, then there would have been no water at all. Perhaps there has been a rock slide, or a tree has...fallen and blocked the stream.”“I can go and take a look,” Satou suggested. “I’ve been up there before, I know the way.”“Very well,” his father replied, “go see if you can find out what the problem is. If there’s a blockage that you can’t clear on your own, hurry back. We may need to send up a team if we are to save the seedlings from drying. My real hand touched my own cheek as I felt the emotional bondbetween us. Watching this showed me just how much we were bound to andloved each other."Kira, my love.

When she pushed up a little and wrapped her legs around my butt and ground her pussy against my growing erection, I released her lips and looked at her. She smiled.
