PART TEN -- A Brief Reacquainting
"There she is," Anna exclaims, pointing to the crowd coming out of the airport's secured area. Kira sees us at the same time and smiles shyly. She knows us about as well as it's possible to know someone long distance, but other than those high-stress moments in front of her house and at the hospital in Cozumel, this is the first time we've actually met.
We walk toward her as she approaches, pulling her carry-on behind. We meet in the middle and there's just that first moment of awkwardness. Kira solves it by letting go of her case and giving me the signal she's seen in the videos. I grin and pick her up, giving her a quick peck on the lips, then hugging her to my chest. Anna joins in the hug and gives Kira a kiss as well.
"We missed you," I say.
"I think I must have missed you too. I wondered how it would feel to have you pick me up. I knew Kira liked it before, and now I see why. You really are a big teddy bear."
It's a bit of a drive down to Homestead and we use the time to catch up. "Guys," Kira says, "it was a really big help to me yesterday, knowing that you were watching the confrontation between my mom and me. It made it a lot easier for me to say what I needed to say."
"I wouldn't have missed it for anything," Anna says.
"And frankly," I say, "I'd have been a lot angrier than you seemed to be. She had no right to steal your files, or micromanage your life."
"Very true," Anna says. "What about your dad? Did he know what was going on?"
"He says he had no idea, and I believe him."
"So, what's
in
those files?" I ask.
"Well, there are dozens of them, at least one from each episode, except for Mexico. Maya really went all out each time, believing that each episode was the first time she'd come up with the idea of leaving notes. I skimmed them last night, but there's a lot of stuff there. I think I'm going to get some good insights into my mental state over the last seven years." She sighs. "Having those available would have made a world of difference for Teri."
"Well, we'll make sure she gets
all
of them this time," I say. "And we're also excited to have you see the other preparations we've made for Teri."
"I can't wait," Kira says.

By the time we arrive, we're all feeling a lot more comfortable with each other. As I carry her two large cases into the house, Anna asks Kira what she'd like to do first.
"Well, I guess I'd like to swim."
"Dress code?" I ask. I'm willing to suit up if it makes her more comfortable.
"Well, house rules of course."
I set her cases down just inside the master bedroom doorway. "Are you ready for that?"
"I hope so, but in any case, I'm not going to dictate what
you
guys wear. You go ahead and I'll join you in a minute." She disappears into the master bathroom.
Anna and I quickly toss our clothes onto the recliner, then race for the pool. I'm just ahead of her as I get to the sliding door, but Anna pinches my butt as I open it.
"Ouch! You'll pay for that!" I yell, but she takes the opportunity to slip ahead of me and dive in first. I'm just feet behind her and as she comes up, I grab her, pulling her to me with her back against my chest. I pinch a nipple and she squeals, then belatedly tries to cover her breasts with her hands. I reach down and begin rubbing her pussy lips with my other hand.
"You give?"
"Not just yet, you perv," she giggles.
I curl a finger and begin to slide it into her. That
always
works. I wait for her cry of "Uncle!" but this time it doesn't happen. Instead, she reaches back and takes my cock in her hand. I'm stunned to find that it's at nearly full mast.
"It's Kira, isn't it?" I ask, sliding my whole finger deep into her.
"Sure is." I feel her vaginal muscles milking my digit. "Damn, Peter, I'm already fantasizing about you fucking me again."
"How about right now?"
"Behave yourself. We have a guest."
"Then I'll fuck her too."
Kira appears moments later, wearing the small but thick terrycloth bathrobe we'd hung next to our longer ones in the master bath. I belatedly remove my finger and Anna lets go of my member. I don't think Kira has noticed.
"Wow," she says, looking around, "this place is even more beautiful in person." I can see the stress on her face and in every little movement she makes. She's working hard to hold herself together. The
reality
of stripping down like this has to be much more difficult for her than the
idea
of it had been. Last night was different because she was safe in her room and only being seen via camera. Now she's outdoors, about to get naked in a place she's never actually been before.
"Kira," I say quickly, "you don't have to do this if you don't want to. We can take as much time as you need."
She straightens. "Nah, I got this." She slips her robe off and lays it over the back of a chair, revealing again the body that Anna and I are so enamored of, then steps up onto the diving board. She pauses for a moment, seemingly to compose herself for her entrance into the water, but then, instead of diving in, she suddenly and inexplicably breaks down in tears and runs for her robe. She grabs it and rushes back inside.
Anna and I fairly leap from the pool, snag a couple of guest robes from the cabana and follow her into the house. She's curled up on the loveseat, sobbing.
"Honey, are you all right?" Anna asks gently, sitting down next to her.
"I'm so sorry," Kira says. "This is all my fault. I wanted it to go perfectly, but I screwed it up."
"How have you screwed anything up?" I ask, taking a knee in front of her.
Kira dabs at her eyes with the sleeve of her robe. She's at least able to look at us now. "I wanted us to go right back to what we were before. I was trying so
hard
to absorb everything I saw in the recordings so it could be like I never went away."
I shake my head. "Kira, you're very much like the girl that Anna and I fell in love with, but you're
not
her. I'm sure we'll come to love you just as much, and we hope you'll love us, but we didn't invite
her
to come be with us, we invited
you
."
"That's right," Anna says. "We can take as much time as we need to get you accustomed to being here. And Peter and I
do
own clothes."
Kira shakes her head. "I don't think I'm doing a very good job of explaining what the issue is. Sure, I've never had sex or lived with communal nudity before, but I'm sure I'll learn to love those things very quickly. No, what I'm having trouble with right now is the fact that I'm
dying
."
