The Island -- A Word Of Farewell
Chapter 41
The next day was a fuzz of bodily function. After breakfast the entire community gathered to help with the boat project. We divided into two grouping : one, headed by Patricia, concentrated on collecting medallion leaves and weaving them into matting to later sew into sheet. The other, captained by Horace, chopped tree and bamboo in rules of order to make a framework to welt on top of the raft. This would admit a rigid anatomical structure onto which we would attach mast and sails, rigging, rudder, and daggerboards. Patricia had designed the affair on a piece of paper salvaged from the planer, and after showing it to Horace, he took on the carpentry chore. The two seemed to have reached an uneasy truce ; they were obviously attracted to one another, but the man's pride and his little trouble were an unsurmountable obstacle between them, it seemed.
I pitched in on the building portion, while Janie and Joelle added their crusade to the sailmaking. We all put in a wide morning's work, feeling energized by the group role. By lunchtime we had made significant onward motion, and we had every hope we might be finished the next day. We broke for a meal and some rehydration, and I ate with Janie and Joelle.
Janie gave me a short hell while we lunched, telling Joelle about my nude modeling the previous evening for hand-job instruction. The cover girl nanny was intrigued by the story, and seemed miffed she had missed the fun.
"God, I wish I'd been there,"she said."I would throw liked to have learned some better techniques. I'm still pretty inexperient when it comes to men, despite the undecomposed efforts of you two. Plus, it sounds like it was a really sexy demonstration."
"Oh, it was pretty invigorating, I'd say,"Janie laughed."I had to get myself off to go to sleep. Dave was all used up and was no good to me."Joelle giggled, red-faced."But I picked up a few pointers from Tran,"Janie continued."Maybe I can depict you some time. I'm sure Dave wouldn't mind a repeat engagement."
No, he would most certainly not, I thought, entranced by the idea. One of my favorite two charwoman teaching the other one how to yank me off ? How could I say no ?
After lunch, the construction crews reassembled to end the task. Now that the backbreaking, more labor-intensive work was done, Janie and Dkembe decided that they could spare Joelle and me, and about of the kids, for the sex-ed example I had proposed yesterday. After I had explained to Joelle and Dkembe my concerns about the ignorance of some of the younger island-dwellers, combined with increasing sexual action in our community, they agreed that we needed to get pretty expressed about the facts of life, and more importantly the facts of unexpected pregnancy. So the two of us in our mental ability as medical professionals were assigned to the labor.
eyesight as how the main beach was taken up by all the activity surrounding the boat-building, I decided we needed to come up an option placement in parliamentary procedure to be undisturbed. Pondering the subject matter, and recalling Joelle's recent stimulation while hearing about my exploit with Tran the day before, I got a notion that would make up the wholly mental process a little more interesting.
"Let's all caput over to the other beach,"I said."We'll have some peace treaty and quiet over there."Grabbing some towels and blankets to sit on, we trooped to the timber to the other side of meat of the island.
Our students consisted of all the younger folk on the island, with the exception of Emily. God knew she needed no far command regarding the birds and bees ; The Virgin and Danielle had that angle covered pretty well. Joelle and I led them to the eastern beach and emerged from the jungle at the cubby.
"This is the nude beach,"said William slyly."Should we necessitate off our clothes ?"He eyed the girls hopefully as he said it.
"Yes, I think so,"I said."After all, we're here to learn about the homo body. You might as well see it."
"What ? !"Joelle said incredulously."You want us to do this naked ?"
I felt a trivial bad springing it on her, but I knew if she'd had time to reckon about it she would induce freaked out even more.
I looked at her seriously."Joelle, we're on a tropical island. It's always at least 80 degrees. We have a limited sum of wear, and we're wearing away less and lupus erythematosus of it every day. We're here to teach the Kid about sex. I think we can agree that nudity is not that inordinate under the circumstances."
"I…. I guess,"she said hesitantly."It's just, I've never been to this beach. I mean, not naked—during the day. And not in movement of other people."I could tell she was now remembering our Nox here with Janie, but I understood what she meant.

And, unfortunately that 's as far as I can go. Apparently, due to the new more aggressive contentedness restrictions, the remainder of this chapter, and the last 6 in the serial publication ( already nearly done ! ) are no longer deemed reserve for publishing on this site.
After all these months of workplace, and all the backup I 've received, it seems a shame to stop now, but that 's the way it goes. If anyone has any estimation on where I can print the complete serial let me bonk in the input. Otherwise I may try to follow one of AnnaSiciliana 's suggetions from her finis berth. If I find a home for the narration, I 'll give-up the ghost word on here.
I 've got a couple of ideas for short stories that may end up here in the future.
Thanks for reading !
