This family visit to the United States was the first visit since Vivian's separation from her husband and subsequent divorce. Naturally this was the opportunity for Vivian and Erica to thoroughly rehash the circumstances. Vivian summed it up, "You know Erica after all is said and done, I maintain that I could have ended up as a one man woman just like you are with Rod."
Erica protested, "I don't know that about me Vivian. I think I can stray if tempted. Remember what we, along with your friend Angela, did before your wedding. I think that's the main reason why I haven't come to visit you in Estonia. You would lead me into licentiousness, and poor old me would betray my marriage vows. Alas, I would be a fallen woman."
Vivian snorted at the hyperbole and resumed, "With Eino, I can honestly say for the main part, I was really a one man woman during the marriage. My main mistake was not to have revealed my intention to attend TLR orgies when I visited the family. But hindsight is twenty-twenty and besides it's all water under the bridge now. I'm quite satisfied with my current lover, Raimond Kruuse. We're not going to marry. Having been married twice, I have no appetite for another attempt. And Raimond seems quite content to fuck me periodically without considering taking our relationship to the next level. Which is fine by me.
"Best of all, he is in no position to protest my sex life apart from him. I told him of my intention of taking in the TLR orgy during this visit. He actually wished me well and trusted I would have a good time. He assured me that he was looking forward to my return to continue in having some more hot sex. And besides he said he'd like to introduce his daughters to me particularly since he's already met Maia. So, things are definitely looking up in that regard."
Erica answered, "As long as you're happy, then I'm happy for you. It's too bad your marriage didn't work out. I could see that you were extremely happy with him during your marriage, until you suffered that awful miscarriage. But as you said that's all water under the bridge. However, I was wondering though, the only reason you were living in Estonia was because you were married to an Estonian farmer. The only blood relative you had discovered in Estonia was a third cousin, whom even our grandparents would have been unaware of. So, would you not consider returning to live here in the States?"
Vivian responded, "No Erica, there are two main reasons, why I wouldn't consider moving back here. First of all, I'm quite well established in Estonia. I'm in the national government, and consequently, I'm actually well known, and apparently a popular public figure. By my wardrobe malfunction incident, the press and the media in Estonia have given me such favorable coverage that I'm considered a political rock star in the nation.
"As an example, during my first dinner date with Raimond at the SwissΓ΄tel restaurant, several patrons came to our table to ask for my autograph. Raimond wasn't really annoyed, but he was slightly miffed that no one asked him for his autograph. After all, as Finance Minister he has a much more important portfolio in the government than my position as Minister of Culture.
"Besides I enjoy personal friendship with Kaja Kallas, the Prime Minister of Estonia and Carmen Kass, Estonia's super model in the fashion world. The latter has been instrumental in helping me acquire a stunning wardrobe. I own a craft beer enterprise and with Carmen, I'm involved with a couple of real estate firms In Estonia. There would be a lot for me to give up in returning to live in the United States.
"In the United States I'm a public nobody. Since I haven't practiced law for eight years, I would have to write bar exams again if I were to get my license back, not that, that would be too onerous for me. Still, since I'd rather live in Chicago than anywhere else in America my name is mud in Chicago's legal world so I would be unlikely to find any employment with a decent law firm. And practicing law on my own would be a daunting task to say the least. My only real viable option would be to obtain a graduate degree in law so I could teach in a law school, but I have no appetite to pursue that avenue."
Erica sighed as she answered, "I understand. It's just that I miss you so much. I wish you were closer so we could see each other more often."
Vivian replied, "Well I shall maintain coming to see you, and Paul as well, at least twice a year. You can also come to see me in Estonia. I promise I won't make you do what you don't want to do."
Erica replied, "That's the problem Vivian. I think being with you I'll want to do what I shouldn't want to do."
They both laughed at that last observation. Vivian knew that Erica would have loved to join the TLR club, but her husband was not inclined to do so.
On the Saturday after the Independence Day holiday, Vivian headed for Dallas from the O'Hare airport. She was absolutely excited as this was the first time in a long time, that she had gone to a TLR orgy without any feeling of guilt or dread. During her marriage, realization she had been committing adultery each time she attended, tended to tamp down her ultimate pleasure. This time as she had intimated to Erica, Raymond Kruuse had no problem with her participation in the orgy, and this made her value her new relationship even more.
