Tess said that the android wasn t her but maybe it would help me to remember her until she returned. She said that she named the android Marian. Marion was programmed with many of the same features Marvo possessed except this android looked like a woman instead of like a man. It had been designed to respond to my voice she said and it could keep the condo clean, prepare meals, and perform all the other domestic chores around the place while she was away.
When the time of her departure came, I took her to the space port where she met her ship the BONNIE ONE which had come down to the planet with several others before the mother ship had left orbit. We kissed and had a tearful good-bye and she left. I returned to the condo.
It was Sunday evening by the time I reached the condo. I fixed a marguerite and went down to the boat dock to sit on the boat and drink it. Before long, Dr. and Mrs. Miller came walking down the path to the boat.
“Can you use some company?” they asked.
“I sure can. I’ll call Marian my new domestic android and have her fix you something to drink. I’m having a marguerite. What will you to have?”
“Me too,” Margaret answered first.
“Sounds good to me,” Dr. Miller joined in.
I contacted Marion on my wrist phone and she said she would make the drinks and bring them right out.
“We have some steaks in the fridge if you haven’t eaten yet,” I said.
“Only if you’ll let me fix a salad to go with them,” Margaret said.
“Not necessary. Marion can fix the steaks and the salad while we sit around and shoot the breeze,” I told her.
“Is she as good as Marvo fixing food?” Dr. Miller asked.
“Tess says she is. This will be a good time to find out,” I said.
What does Marian look like? Margaret asked.
Brune Hilda, if I know Tess, Dr. Miller laughed.
You two haven t seen her yet. Believe me you will be impressed, I said. She ll b e out in a few minutes.
I thought Tess left today, Dr. Miller said.
She did, I said.
Well, who is that coming down the walk, then? he asked as if I was fooling him.
Oh that is Marian.
I don t believe you, Margaret s aid. That is Tess.
I told you that you would be impressed. The android even sounds like Tess when she talks but I can assure you Marian is an android.
Marian delivered the drinks and I told her about fixing the steaks and the salad and serving them here on the dock when ready. I then turned her off momentarily so both Dr. Miller and his wife could examine her up close. When they were both satisfied that Marian was an android and not Tess, I re-activated her so she could return to the condo to our prepare supper.
We made plans for another sail next Saturday. This was the long Labor Day weekend coming up so we could have an extra day to sail and fish to mark the end of Summer.
We continue to celebrate many of our Earth holidays within our group. That is why we are celebrating Labor Day even though it is not a holiday for the people of Starsis. We enjoyed the meal that Marian made for us and had a few more drinks before the Millers left and I went up to bed. When I looked at the empty bed, my feelings of loneliness returned as I realized Tess was gone and that I would not see her again for many months.
I had similar feelings when it took so long to find her on the old chief s planet but then I didn t know if she was dead or alive. At least now, I can look forward to the time when she will return. The workweek seemed especially long but Saturday finally came and Dr. & Mrs. Miller joined me for morning breakfast before we loaded the boat and set sail for the three-day weekend.
We were nearly across the lake when a radio message came in for Dr. Miller. It was an emergency call. One of his patients had been in an accident and was rushed to the hospital. We were still about an hour out. The hospital said they would meet Dr. Miller at the dock as soon as we arrived to take him to the hospital.
They said the patient would receive any needed emergency room treatment by the time he arrived but that the patient was insisting on seeing him before any other treatment is given.
I told Dr. Miller that we would wait at the dock for his return. He said that e would call us as soon as he knew more. We decided to have the boat gassed up while waiting. Once we had done that, we pulled into an available mooring and tied up to wait for Dr. Miller s call.
He left us at about 14:30 and we received his call about an hour later. He said that he wouldn t be able to leave the vicinity of the hospital before Monday. He said that we should head on back and he would see us back at the condo on Monday afternoon.
I asked if he wanted me to bring Margaret to the hospital and he said no because he wouldn t have much time to spend with her and that she would be better off on the boat than sitting around a motel alone all day.
I asked Margaret and she agreed.
Let s head out while we still have some daylight. We ll use the motor until we clear the congestion of the harbor area, I said.
I can help with the r igging, she advised.
We ll trim the sails with the automatic controls on this thing as much as possible, I promised.
We headed for the middle of the lake. I knew of an island cove about half way across the lake and told her we would head there and anchor for the night. I told her we could go ashore and find a motel for the night where I could get her a separate room so she wouldn t feel like I was contemplating something inappropriate.
We managed to rig the boat and trim the sales and I set the automatic pilot to head toward the island.
Once all the controls were set, I followed her into the cabin to put on a pot of coffee. When the coffee was ready, I took a cup and went topside again to check things. There were still no other boats in sight and everything was fine but a good Captain never takes any unnecessary risks while sailing.
She came up and sat down next to me and began to talk about this and that and one thing and another trying to make conversation. Before I had a chance to realize it, she began reveal secrets she and Tess had told to each other about their most interesting love making escapades with their husbands.
Are you sure you want me to know such secret details of your sex life? I asked.
Why, don t you like sex? she asked.
Of course. I love having sex with my wife.
You are going to have a long dry spell, she said. If you plan to wait for her return, that is. I don t think I could go without having sex that long. I get way too horny, she continued.
Have you ever had sex with anyone other than your husband? Forget that question, I have no right to ask, I said as I caught myself.
Tess told me of a time when she had sex with my husband before we were married, she said.
I m sure that s not true, Margaret, I said.
Oh its true because my husband confirmed it, she came back.
I don t believe you, I interjected.
Believe what you wan t. I know what Tess told me, she said.
I don t think she would have done it with your husband and told you about it, I said trying to make a point.
Well you re right, she didn t tell me about it. My husband told me once when he was upset and thought I was having an affair, she said. He wanted to get even.
I m sure that he just made it up to try to get even with you because he thought you were messing around. Men do that sometimes when their ego is hurt, I said.
We ll be anchoring for the night in about an hour. We can go ashore to one of the local cafes and get something to eat, I said.
We have plenty of food below, she said. I can fix some sandwiches when we set anchor.
That sounds fine to me, but you don t have to, I said.
I want to, she said.
I stood up to return my
cup to the galley below.
Let me take it, she said as she reached for the cup.
I handed it to her and she went down into the cabin below. I didn t see her anymore until we reached the cove. It was getting dark by the time we secured the boat for the night. She helped me tie off the sails and batten down the hatches after I dropped anchor..
I ll make supper, she said as she went back down the ladder.
I ll help, I told her.
No need, she said.
She fixed the sandwiches while I prepared some frozen marguerites in the blender. We sat at the table across from each other. Her head was down and she said not a word. I guess that I had embarrassed her making out like she had lied to me about the secrets she had attempted to lay on me.
I m not saying that I don t believe you about your husband and Tess, I said trying to make conversation and take her out of her doldrums.
I really had you going there for a while, didn t I? she said as she began to chuckle.
You sure did, I admitted.
Let me ask you something, she said.
Go ahead, I said as I sipped on my marguerite.
If my husband did do it with Tess, wouldn t you want to get even and do it with me?
That s a good question. If he had, and I knew for sure he did, I would want to get even but only if you also wanted me. I wouldn t like to make things worse for you.
What if I asked you to make love to me tonight? she asked with no hesitation in her voice.
If I thought you really wanted me to make love to you and not just because you wanted to get even with your husband, I might consider it.
I really want to and it s as simple as that, she said.
I would want us to still be good friends afterwards, if I did make love to you and I would want your promise that it would always remain our secret. You are a gorgeous lady and this bathing suit you have been wearing all day has caused me to fantasize what it might be like to have sex with you, I admitted.
I want you to make love to me and I have wanted you to do it with me for a long time. Until now, we have had no real opportunity. Now we have the chance tonight and I think we would be two fools not to take full advantage, she said.
She was looking straight at me when she said it. Her head was no longer down.
I motioned for her to come over to my side of the table to finish her meal. We sat together feeding each other pieces of sandwiches. I began to warm to the idea. She grabbed hold of my hand as I tried to feed her. She took two of my fingers and put them in her mouth and moved them in and out as she began to suck on them.
Then she leaned over and kissed me on the lips and ran her tongue in an out of my mouth trying to arouse me more that she already had. I moved as if to take her to the bedroom.
Not yet, she whispered. Finish eating your supper and your and drinking your marguerite first. I will be waiting for you when you are done, she said as she stood up and walked away throwing kisses at me as she disappeared into her cabin.
Like I had been told, I finished my supper and drink and went to her cabin. She was stretched out on the bed wearing tiny little red panties and a matching see through top.
I sat on the side of the bunk and began removing my deck shoes. She sat up to help me with my shirt. I then stood up and removed my pants.
Don t remove your shorts yet, she said. Lay down beside me and let me do that.
You can then remove my top and panties for me, she went on.
I lay down beside her and she pulled it through the slit in the front of my shorts. I had a full erection now.
Tess wasn t lying. You do have a big one, she said as she chuckled. Its a lot bigger than my husbands, she wen t on.
She then rolled over and began to squeeze it a few times before she stopped and let me know that she had two tits that longed to be sucked.
I managed to remove her top and began to gently suck on them, first one and then the other. After a little while, she straddled me and pulled down my shorts.
Now help me remove my panties, she said.
I managed to pull them off as she laid back and raised her buttocks and then each leg one at a time to help. She then rolled back over on her back and asked me to make foreplay with her for a little while before proceeding to the main event.
I propped her up on a pillow to get a better angle and began to apply massage to her clitoris and soon she said she was ready.
By now, her juices were running down the inside of her legs and she began to moan and squirm with impatience.
As she grabbed my penis again, she said: That s enough foreplay. Let s do it now.
I climbed on top and soon penetrated her. I worked slowly trying not to give the impression of being too anxious. As we began to move in harmony now, she pulled me down to kiss me using her tongue to emulate what was going on below as it moved in and out of her.
Wait! she said . I don t want to do it yet. Oh! too late! she chuckled as she grabbed me tighter so I wouldn t pull out. Let me lay here a few minutes while I savor this, she said as she tightened her arms around me with even more force.
I just lay still for a moment until she relaxed her grip. I had become all worked up but I had managed to keep from also climaxing early. Soon after she began to loosen her arms, she sighed and asked me if I would lie over on my back for a while so she could climb on top.
As I did, she positioned me where she wanted so she could ease down onto me. As she did, she whispered how big I had felt inside of her and how these new and unexpected wonderful sensations made her loose control and have an early orgasm before she had mentally prepared herself.
I ve never had an orgasm that fast in my life, she said as she began to move slowly up and down bending my penis in ways it had never been bent before.
I love the feel of your big p enis, she went on and on as she worked me until she had several more orgasms, letting me know each time. I think I ve had five or six orgasms all ready, she said as she finally lifted her exhausted self off of me. Did you finish yet? she asked.
No but it won t take much more before I do. I have been trying to control myself until you are satisfied. That is the least a man owes a woman who enjoys it as much as you seem to, I said.
I don t know where or how you learned to control yourself so long but I wish my husband could learn your secret, she went on.
Tess conditioned me. If I went out too fast she would let always let me know that I had not satisfied her, I explained.
Tess is a very lucky wo man to have you in her bed, she said. Lay there and let me see if I can stroke it until you climax. I will need to catch my breath before I can do anything else, she said.
She began to stroke it and I warned her to get something to catch it because I was about ready to explode.
I want to catch it in my hand, she said as if she enjoyed the experience.
It wasn t long until I erupted like a volcano all over the top of her hand. Afterward, she licked her hand and seemed to like the taste as she purred like a kitten.
I left her in her bed and went down the hall to my own cabin where I slept soundly the rest of the night. The smell of coffee brewing woke me the next morning.
Margaret was up early so we could get an early start back to our side of the lake. I got up and cleaned up and dressed and went into the galley.
Should your husband question you about what we did last night, just tell him you slept in your bed and I slept in mine. Have we got a deal? I asked.
Of course. It s the truth, isn t it?
Yes, its the truth, I answered.
We had breakfast before weighing anchor and motoring the boat safely out of the cove to reach open water again before raising the sails.
Then suddenly I was awakened from a sound sleep by the sound of the doorbell. I s
at up in bed, rubbed my eyes and found my robe. I got out of bed and went downstairs to the front door of the condo and tried to focus my eyes enough to see through the little peephole in the door. It was Dr. and Mrs. Miller. What could they be doing here at this hour, I thought to my self as I opened the door.
Good morning sleepy head, Dr. Miller said. It s Saturday morning. You didn t forget about our boating trip this morning did you?
No of course not. What time is it? I asked.
Its seven o clock, Mrs. Miller said. You asked us to be hereby 07:00.
Right, right. Come in. We are going to have a nice breakfast before leaving, I said as my senses began to return. I ll tell Marian to fix it while I grab a quick shower. Sorry that I over slept. Go on in and sit at the table. As soon as the coffee is ready, have a cup. I ll be back down in a jiffy, I said as I headed back upstairs.
What a dream I had just experienced, I thought as the warm water hit my face and brought me the rest of the way back to reality. That whole episode with Margaret had just been a dream. I never did anything with her. We haven t even started our cruise yet, I realized with a sigh of relief.
Soon we were having breakfast and finalizing our plans for sailing to the other side of the lake today as a start to our three-day Labor Day holiday weekend.
CHAPTER 16-MARIAN’S DOUBLE
The affair with Margaret Miller never materialized and not once on our three day cruise was there any hint of flirting between us. Dr. Miller did not leave for an emergency and the whole trip seemed rather mundane compared to the cruise in my dream.
I don’t think that I have ever had a dream before that which seemed so real. Margaret is a beautiful woman and she has been to our home a hundred times or more. Maybe deep inside in my subconscious mind, I have fantasized about having sex with her but it never came to the surface before that dream.
I behaved myself during Tess’ absence but it wasn’t easy at times. The dream kept coming back into my head every time the Millers visited which was at least twice weekly during the next ten months.
