Best Defense

Lost in jungle part II

I looked at the towering trees along the way to the lake house. Yes, finally today we will return to be residents of the jungle. Escape for a moment from the hustle and bustle of city life that began to feel boring.

Entering this place again made me feel as if I was reborn with a new, freer and more detached soul. No doubt, nature always has a beautiful way of raising someone. How magical.

I unceasingly thanked in my heart for all the goodness of God in my life. I used to blame Him for thinking He had taken both of my parents by force, but in the hard times I went through, He saved me too.

God helped me in all my troubles.

I looked around as the car we were riding in started to slow down. The road is still the same. The trees are still the same. The challenging atmosphere still felt the same. But... Where is my house? I couldn't see his whereabouts until the car's tires completely stopped turning.

I was still staring confusedly at the surroundings when I heard Sean's voice speak. "We're here, baby." He got out of the car and opened the door by my side.

I received Sean's hand but my sight still searched for the existence of my jungle palace which seemed lost in the swallow of the earth. Then I narrowed my eyes as Sean led me further down the still-wet path and that's where I saw him. Behind the old wooden hut of an electric machine whose thumping sound will not be forgotten for life.

A house whose appearance is inversely proportional to the previous wooden house. "OH. MY. GOD!" I was stunned with my hands shutting my mouth. Stunned by the beautiful sight before me.

"Welcome home, baby."

"Is this real? Am I dreaming? If so, please don't wake me up." I said, then walked away in a hurry to leave Sean.

Sean chuckled in the back as I galloped closer to the house to stand in the grass right in front of the house. "Hows it? Do you like it?" sean asked as he grabbed my shoulder.

Are you kidding me? I am speechless! Who wouldn't love a house like that? I still admire the view in front of me. Suddenly my tongue was frozen. There are not enough words to describe how happy my heart is right now. And instead, I immediately kissed the sexy, surprise-filled creature.

I kissed her with all of an explosive feeling, savoring the sweetness in her mouth while my fingers climbed down her thick black hair. I stopped after we were almost out of breath. "Sean.." I gasped, looked at every corner of his face that I had always admired, and I kissed him again.

Unknowingly my tears were dripping from the feeling of happiness that filled every cell of my body. "I can't believe this." I snored in front of his mouth with my hands cupped in his jaw. For the third time, I kissed him again. Until Sean giggled between our kisses.

"I guess you like it. Am I right, Franda?" his murmur was soft while wiping the wet pipiki.

I shook my head quickly. "No. Liking is not the right word. I'm shaking it like I'm crazy about you." I looked back at the house again. My tears were flowing more and more while my lips were smiling widely. Very wide, until I thought my mouth might have been torn apart.

I haven't had time to say anything to express my gratitude so well, my mother's voice was heard behind us. She was hysterical, exactly with my reaction. I've forgotten the last time my mother screamed so loud. He even cursed.

"Jesus fvcking christ!"

"Mom, there's a little boy here." Mia said, closing Ben's ear.

My mother gasped, blinked and shook her head in regret. "I'm sorry, Ben" she said weakly, making us laugh watching her cute wrinkled face. Then he approached me and pulled me into his arms. "Oh, sweetie. I'm so happy for you." He rubbed my back and kissed my head.

I nodded on her shoulder, still trying to calm my heart as if it wanted to jump out of its nest. "Thank's, mom." I said back while hugging.

I looked at the two people I respected with feelings of dignity and happiness at once. The one mother who raised and cared for me, the other husband who would accompany me forever.

"She's my wife, mom. I just gave him what he deserved. It's nothing compared to everything he's done for me" Sean said softly.

After the heartwarming moment passed, we went straight into the house. If I had been surprised by the view outside, now the inside is even more astonishing. I thought the house wasn't too big before, but there was a hidden paradise I just found out about.

There is one door that leads to the back and there are six rooms plus one special cooling room that stores wine. The wine bottles were lined up on shelves made of wood. It's really heaven.

"For God's sake, I wouldn't mind staying here forever." I gasped in shock at Mia's voice that I knew since when it had been beside me.

I snorted looking at him as he walked over to one of the shelves, then grabbed a bottle of wine from there. "Penfolds Grange Hermitage 1951. There are only 20 bottles left in the world, and one of them is here. My brother-in-law is crazy!" Mia shook her head in disbelief. His eyes flashed while he gulped. "May I try it?"

I'm just gonna answer 'No!' but Sean's voice first sounded from the doorway. "Go ahead's. It's there to drink." she said.

Mia immediately clenched one of her hands into the air, then hurriedly ran out. I cursed in my heart for missing the chance to save that thing.

Sean stepped in a very graceful manner, teasing me with his flirtatious grin and wink of his eyes. I watched his movements while smiling amusedly. He stood on one of the rightmost wooden shelves, next to his hand touching the side of the shelf. Then I jumped, almost jumping as I felt the wooden floor beneath me tremble.

Okay. Alright. I think I should get my heart checked after this. I don't know what this sexy creature has planned for me, why does she have to make me gawk so many times?

The shock about the house and the wine cellar was still not finished, now he pulled me down through the stairs that had just been seen from the side of the corner that opened wide after Sean pressed the button earlier. One more secret room. My heart was pounding even more as he led me through the room that looked like an underground tunnel. Oh, this is a tunnel, Franda!

The air inside was very humid, the walls were made of bricks polished with black paint, small light bulbs seemed lined up on the walls, the rays shining along the tunnel that had not been seen at the end.

Sean continued to lead me without saying anything, I myself did not bother to ask. Our echoing footsteps were creepy, making me shudder in horror. It's exactly like the journey to the torture chamber that often appears in psychopathic movies. Wait, is he a psychopath? If so, I'm finished today.

I felt the fine hairs on my skin standing up and I started to get scared. I continued to look anxiously at him as I trembled until we stopped at the end of the tunnel. Sean pressed another button on the wall next to him, and instantly my fear evaporated as a bright light burst through from above, accompanied by an iron staircase that slowly moved down. I exhaled a sigh of relief.

"Come on," Sean said as he reached out. I received his advice and began to climb the stairs.

I was still standing on the stairs and stopped as my eyes looked at a. I don't know his name, but it was the most beautiful sight I witnessed today. And I really understand Sean's purpose in making that place.

"Warner," I muttered in amazement. "You've really prepared it. I can't believe you've planned this far." I kissed her lips greedily, wrapped my tongue around her tongue while squeezing her hair.

Then as fast as lightning I ran past him and headed straight for the cabin that would torment me with pleasure.

Sean laughed behind me, then came running and floated my body to his shoulder. "I will punish you for daring to leave me, you naughty girl!" he said while patting my ass.

I sniggered behind his back. Happy feelings I can no longer express in words. Sean gave me an amazingly beautiful life, and I was ready to welcome another beauty that would adorn our journey.
