"Manas!" Lalitha called him, loud and clear.
"Are you home? I need your help; can you please help me out?" Lalitha requested.
Manas was a young man, a distant relative who lived next door to her. He was shy, brilliant in studies, sensitive, and probably naturally curious like young men of his age. He was always well behaved and occasionally helpful.
"What is it auntie? I was about to go take a shower, is it okay if I come by after my shower?" Manas replied.
They shared a single wall between their houses, and that was what separated their bathrooms. Even though she was talking from within her house, they were easily audible to one other. Both of Manas's parents worked, and he usually stayed home before and after his classes. He did not have many friends, and he was a nerd who enjoyed staying home.
Lalitha was a 38-year-old housewife, a mother of a 4-year toddler. Her husband worked in a nearby school, and he usually left to work along with the kid, whom he dropped off at the nursery before heading to his work. Lalitha spent her early mornings preparing food for the three of them, packed their lunches and had more time for herself only after they both left in the mornings. She would get to her morning chores only after this. She would clean her house, and finally take a much-needed bath, and would relax for a few minutes, and she would need to go pick up her kid. Today she looked in a hurry, she needed someone to help her get a few things from her attic. Being alone, she could not climb up the ladder and get the things down at the same time. She had to get this done, before she got ready and left for school. She thought Manas could help her. Without any hesitation she called out his name.
"Manas, can you please come now? I need to get this done quickly as I will not have much time later to get to school in time." Lalitha replied to Manas.
Manas, even though a little irritated, decided to go help her out. She had once in a while asked for his help, to either take care of her kid for a few minutes when she ran to a nearby store, or to keep her house keys when she went out for an urgent errand. He was not sure what she wanted this time, as he had already put his underwear for wash, he quickly wore his shorts and tee and he came out.
Manas was a young man, who was learning new things about his body. Lalitha being an attractive neighbour, had been in his fantasy a few times, but with guilt. A mother, especially a distant relative was not someone he should be fantasizing about. He was sensitive enough to realise his fantasy was wrong, but his curious mind had failed him at times. Like any nerd, apart from a few dirty dreams, he had very little experience in this matter, nevertheless he was too shy to think of any other thing to do about it.
"Hi Auntie!" said Manas, as he walked into his neighbour's house.
It was a small house with a living room, small bedroom and a kitchen. This was not new to him; his own house was not very much bigger than this. They just had one more room, than this house.
Lalitha asked him "Manas, I need to get a few things down from the attic, I need the large aluminium wok to make sambhar powder, we have none of it left, and I need to make the new powder before lunch today. I am not sure where the wok is in the attic, we may need to get a few things out before we spot it, as you know it is not possible for me alone to take it out and keep it down, can you please help me by climbing the ladder and handing me things down. It would be really helpful if you can help me out on this."
Manas did not really mind helping her out, he did not think twice before accepting to help her.
Lalitha went out and got the step ladder and placed the same on the kitchen floor. Lalitha held the ladder as Manas started climbing it. As he was climbing it, he realised what he had done. He was climbing up a ladder, where he was supposed to stand for next 10 to fifteen minutes, as Lalitha would stand below to take down things from him, he was wearing his airy shorts with no underwear, and there was a big chance that Lalitha will have to look up during this whole exercise. He stood on the first step as this thought came across his mind. There was reluctance and confusion on his mind, which Lalitha did not understand. She asked him, if he was okay and if he needed something. He just froze for a bit thinking what he should do. It was embarrassing to tell her the truth, it was even more embarrassing to climb up the ladder. After thinking for a few seconds, he decided to clutch his shorts between his legs and quickly finish his task. Slowly and consciously he climbed all the way up the ladder. Lalitha started instructing him to give her all the things at the front of the attic.
Lalitha usually wore Salwaar at home, she was wearing an old faded light blue kurta today, it was tight at wrong places and loose at the wrong ones too, it just didn't fit her well. She did not really mind the bad fitting as was at home, and she had never been one of those fashionably correct housewives. She believed more in comfort. She was a little cautious with the young man around, to make sure there are no awkward moments due to her attire.
Manas started giving things from the attic, as Lalitha took them from his hand one by one, and started placing them on the ground. Manas lifted the next item, and bent down to hand it over, he was surprised by the view below. He could clearly see down her kurta, as she looked up to catch the item, the kurta was loose around her bosom, and it was hanging down a bit exposing her top from above. The first sight of her creamy cleavage was something which he could not take his eyes away from, yet he was worried what she might think of she caught him peeking down her top. The white bra she was wearing was holding her boobs tightly, and the view from above was enough to hint what's inside, but not enough to show the real stuff. All this hide and peek got Manas excited, and his tool started to stiffen up. He was in a fix now, on one side he was loving this exciting circumstance and wanted it more and more, on the other side, he was conscious of his own situation, and was worried what that would lead to.
Lalitha had noticed how airy Manas's shorts were, she never expected him to be wearing nothing underneath. As he started climbing the ladder, her very first gaze up had caught her by surprise. She was looking at the hairless balls of a young man. At first, she thought she must have been mistaken, but another step higher there was no doubt left. She didn't know what to do, she could ask Manas to just go home, but that would look very odd, and her original plan would be impacted too. She was clearly in two minds, unable to decide her next steps. A few minutes into it, she was sure she could not just ignore what was on display, as she started feeling that tingling sensation between her legs. She knew that was wrong instantly, she was a married woman, and a mother, the young man was almost half her age, and clearly by the looks, he was just growing up. But her body seems to be responding to these visuals, and somehow, she had started to like what her body was feeling now. She finally made up her mind, to go through with this, and just enjoy what's on display. She wanted to stay cautious enough to make sure he does not catch her looking up his stuff.
Manas was having a wonderful time now, with every item he now looked forward to the beautiful and waiting acceptor standing right below him, his mind racing ahead of what was already on display, it wanted to see more. He noticed that the top half of her bra cup was made of slightly thinner and lacy material, he was thrilled with this discovery, it gave him a hope that he would see more, and he was right. With more careful observation, he could make out the darker shade on her left breast. His eyes started tracing that, he was now sure that was her nipple, this gave him an enormous erection, that he had never experienced so far in his life. In all this excitement his mind had forgotten his situation with his own underwear, and he had now let go of his guard completely. His tool now formed a big tent in his crotch.
