I Am Adam

  Year 1 – The Meeting

  The light of the new day had yet to break through as Adam woke and looked about her. She heard the breathing of Sumba and stood slowly to keep from waking her or the littles near her. Smelling the air, she sensed something very different from the normal smell and feel of her surroundings. She rose carefully and crawled to the edge of the clearing. Immediately, she could tell that the clearing size was larger than the day before, and she saw new objects in the area. She saw some of the white furry animals she had seen up in the mountains, but they all were now standing right here in her place. She sat and looked at them for a long time, and finally the first rays of light began to show other objects in her clearing. On the ground was a large pile of the eating things she found in the forest. Why would they be sitting right here? She always found eating things in the forest, and never brought them back with her. Beyond this, she noticed a big hill of the grass-with-seeds placed in a pile near the furry animals. What was the meaning of all this? She had seen the furry animals eat the grass-with-seeds, but why bring it here into her place. As the light grew brighter, she stood and walked into the clearing to take a closer look at these strange things. Coming nearer, she smelled a new being and felt a strong sensation within herself. Looking past the pile of grass-with-seeds, she saw the source of the new smell and feeling. It was unlike any being she had ever seen before. It was sleeping and she sat far from the being and watched it sleep. It had long hair similar to hers, but it was very dark and not smooth. The being did not have breast like hers, but had hair covering that area and down the arms. Its legs and body were much like hers, but with bigger ripples and bumps. Standing, she moved closer and now saw the being’s face. It looked similar to her face when she saw it in the water, but it was furry. What was this, and what was the smell it gave her? Suddenly its eyes opened and it jumped to its feet and looked at her. Breathing deeply, it took in her smell, stepped to her, and proclaimed in a loud voice, "I am Adam."

  At the sound of its voice, Wellna woke and came rushing to her side. Seeing this new creature, he began to growl and show teeth. The smell that came from Wellna was like that she first smelled on him when he was hurt in the forest. Turning, the new being raised its hands and growled back. She grabbed Wellna and held him close and said, "Wellna be happy, for this is a new friend who is also called Adam." Turning to the new being called Adam, she stepped closer and said, "I am Adam and this is Wellna. Are you the male Satari and Dom told me I would see?"

  At the mention of Satari's name, the new Adam turned and stared at her. He came close, reached out to touch her light hair, and then gently stroked her face. His hand moved to her breast, and he touched the left one and then put his hand on his own chest. He stepped closer to her, looked deep into her eyes, and smelled her hair in his hands. As she looked into his eyes, the female felt a sense of peace grow in her. She released Wellna and reached out to touched his face. As she did this, he pulled back quickly which caused her to drop her hands and step back.

  "I am Adam. You are like me yet different," he said. "I know Satari, and Dom told me I would meet a female like me, and you must be it for I have never seen such beings as you in my world."

  "I am Adam, and Satari and Dom told me I was female, and you are male. What is that?" she asked as she pointed to his penis.

  "It is how I let water out." He said, "Do you not let water out? Does it stay in those?" He pointed at her breasts.

  "I let water out from here," she said putting her hand between her legs," and these are to feed littles just as Sumba does, but mine do not work for I have no littles."

  He once again approached her and began to walk around her, touching her face, shoulders, back and finally placing his fingers between her legs. As he touched her, she felt a sensation in her body she never had before. She pulled back and looked away from him. He felt her energy change and reached out to touch her shoulders. She tensed at his touch and then relaxed and faced him.

  "Did I hurt you?" he asked.

  "No, it is a new feeling I have when you touch me. I like it, but I do not know what it is." Reaching out she touched his face and quickly moved to him and stroked his hair. He looked down into her eyes and asked, "What is this that you are doing?"

  "It is how we show we care for each other. My friends and I do this all the time.”

  He moved closer to her, and stroked her hair. She felt much softer than anything he had ever touched. "I like to do this" he said to her, “you feel good to me." Looking around he saw Wellna watching all this very carefully. "What is this?" he asked pointing to Wellna.

  "Wellna is a friend who was hurt and I helped him be better. Wellna is a ‘he’, or that is what Satari tells me. Now he is with me always and lives here with me and Sumba."

  "What is Sumba?" he asked as he continued to stare at Wellna.

  "Come, I will let you meet her and her littles." She reached out and offered him her hand. He looked at her hand but did not take it. Moving closer, she grabbed his hand in hers and, throwing her long hair over her shoulders, smiled at him. He lifted her hand and looked at it, then touched the back of her hand with his other fingers. Looking up into her face, he smiled back at her and licked her hand. They stood looking at each other for a few seconds, and then she pulled him with her as they went to see Sumba.
