The large ballroom was crowded with guests standing around high cocktail tables and chatting avidly with each other. Philip Carver, with his 188 cm in height, was overlooking the whole crowd he almost seemed to be the only foreigner in the entire hall filled with Japanese businessmen and their families. Philip felt horribly out of place and worse was that most people even colleagues from work simply ignored the "gaijin" who kept standing in a corner with a glass of champagne lifting it up occasionally to hide another depressed sigh.
With only 27 he had been one of the youngest managers in his company ever to obtain the lead position at the Japanese branch of his company, his childhood obsession with the culture and language had made it possible because he'd been the only one speaking the language almost accent-free and that got him this job in the end. Almost a year on the other side of the globe from England and even though he knew everything beforehand the reality still had been quite a culture shock in the beginning but he had handled it well. However occasions like this didn't make it easier to blend in. Official business banquets where most people used to be twice his age and polite chatter was hiding the true intentions were dull. Here, Philip wasn't able to gain anything.
Minute after minute slowly crept by and the young manager found asking himself why he'd been so fanatical about Japan in the beginning, certainly the people and country hadn't lost their charms although the awe and curiosity had been gone and many things were tiring work, only. Just as Philip was about to let escape another silent lament he spotted tonight's host, Akira Takeguchi a business affiliate of his, coming directly up to him a bunch of people in his tow.
"Good evening, Mr. Carver," Takeguchi addressed him in polite Japanese: "May I introduce one of our chairman, Mr. Honda, to you. He would like to know a few details about our ongoing business."
They had bowed to each other and Philip turned towards Mr. Honda who was obviously accompanied by his family. The English manager bowed again and then took his first real look at the trio. Mr. Honda was a greying quite gentle looking man in his early fifties his wife an attractive looking lady a little younger than her husband. When Philip turned his eyes towards their daughter it hit him like a wrecking ball, a wave of heat went through his whole body, she radiated innocent youth, uncompared beauty and even though she looked pure modesty she sent out a sexual glow that was emitting through the whole room. Their eyes met for just an instant before she looked down shyly but it had been long enough for him to notice her interest as well. He was in love at first sight!
Philip knew he was starring openly but it took him a while to get back his control. He inhaled her appearance, her lovely, timid smile, full lips, perky nose, deep shimmering almond-shaped eyes, flawless bronze-coloured skin, her elegant yet tight evening dress hiding a bombshell figure. Philip spotted a surprisingly buxom chest standing out proudly. Politely nobody seemed to have taken notice of his indecent observation and when Philip after all managed to take his eyes off, Mr. Honda politely started to ask some questions while Mr. Takeguchi excused himself.
About 30 minutes Philip Carver tried to listen and answer the questions as good as possible since his mind followed his view that used to wander off quite a lot admiring the young Japanese goddess who also appeared to steal glances at him and once in a while their eyes even locked for a very brief moment. It was heaven and hell at the same time and worsening the situation Philip, deep in his mind knew that he would have no chance of ever dating this girl. While the society had become more open still many traditional families remained especially the well off people and even female celebrities were not allowed to marry a "gaijin" since their parents would only accept a Japanese man of similar background.
Finally it was over. Mr. Honda gave himself satisfied and they wished him a good farewell. Philip starred desperate at the back of his princess when she and her two elders vanished into the crowd, he had the image of her long black hair and her swaying hips when she sat one foot in front the other in a model-like fashion still in his mind when they were long gone.
Breathing deeply he knew that no matter how slim his chances were he had to catch her alone. First however he had to find her.
The task was more difficult than expected, restless Philip Carver browsed through the bulks of people while making his way along the wall. After an endless search he ultimately spotted Mr. and Mr. Honda, but where was their daughter? A sudden voice right behind his ear made him jump: "Excuse me"!
The stunning girl brushed right along his side, turned her head slightly and sent him a smile before she was gone again in an instant heading towards her parents.
The whole evening Philip kept observing but he had no chance to talk to them again, always they were engaged in conversation with other guests and also he couldn't think of an excuse to talk to the Hondas again. He was thinking of making a foolish approach directly towards the lovely daughter but he was too much of a coward and also knew that if he did that his rudeness would destroy any chance he might have had. Still, the unearthly angel once in a while met his gaze innocently and each time his heart jumped. When the first guests started to leave the Hondas were among them, Philip threw a last desperate glance and then she was gone.
The next morning Philip Carver stood in his small Tokyo flat and tried to straighten his suit since he had simply left his clothes as a cramped pile on the floor before heading to bed feeling lonelier than ever. He had gotten used to live alone in an alien place but since yesterday night he felt that it was urgent time to finally find a partner to share life with. When he was back in England he had never really had a desire to date a girl there, since his teenage days he was fixated on Asians, had admired actresses or singers and was too shy to actually ask a girl out anyways. At university he had busied himself with studies, some of his friends even had called him a bookworm or nerd and they had tried to set him up a few times but he never cared for the three girls he actually went out on a date with. Needless to say nothing happened.
Only in the beginning when he came to Japan some fellow English co-workers dragged him along to some bars and he really got hooked up with a rather pretty Japanese girl one night. He was quite drunk and she, about two or three years older than him and definitely very experienced as he was to find out soon, had taken the lead. They ended in a love-hotel where she told him to not waste time and strip while she herself had been already half naked. The lewd vixen had shoulder length hair framing a cute round face, her firm breasts were crowned with tasty brown nipples and Philips cock, despite his dazed state had started to stir at that sight. When she had peeled of her panties and he became aware of her trimmed black bush his manhood came to full attention. The practiced woman had been so much in heat, she had simply pushed him onto the bed and hauled his briefs down before she straddled herself onto him, grabbed his cock with her small hand and directed it right into her awaiting clam. This sight alone almost had made him come and when she bucked her hips against his, her titties were bouncing frantically up and down and Philip felt the soft flesh of her pussy gripping him tight - he felt so wonderful as he had never before.
Sadly he came very soon and while she didn't seem to care he felt guilty and offered to please her with his tongue which she liked. They had fucked again two more times that night and for four months regularly met afterwards for some hot and steamy hours together. Philip had enjoyed them enormously; this woman had turned him into a true man and had with a surprising patience taught him the art of pleasing a female. However he only saw her once or twice a week and sometimes only every two or three weeks since she used to be always busy. Also they didn't talk a lot, when they met she hang at his side and they either went into a hotel or to his apartment since she still lived with her parents. Their relationship circled around sex only and this he found odd. He also knew that he didn't truly love her but the newly awakened desires she was so good in satisfying stopped him from asking too much. Suddenly one day she started talking about marriage and while this came as a surprise he was really happy and proud but also reluctant enough to not rush things.
