Chapter 73: I don't want any regrets
Dread began to creep into Unami\'s mind as she considered the possibility that Garnt might have something else in mind with Kara. She felt a surge of jealousy and fear, her face souring at the thought.
However, just as her imagination started to run wild, they reached Kara\'s hut, and Garnt unexpectedly entered, closing the door behind him. Unami\'s confusion deepened, and she watched in astonishment as Aunt Ayra emerged from the house, in the middle of changing her clothes.
\'Damn it! Don\'t look Garnt.\'
She cursed inside her mind because she felt rather inferior seeing her well sculptured body that screamed exoticness.
Ayra looked at what was happening with a mixture of surprise and curiosity.
Garnt, still holding Unami\'s hand, turned to Aunt Ayra, his gaze unwavering. He cleared his throat and said, "Ayra, I need to talk to you about something important."
Hearing his tone and the way he addressed her, Ayra knew this wasn\'t her nephew who was talking rather it was her lover and to be husband.
Unami couldn\'t fathom why Garnt was addressing Aunt Ayra instead of her mother, Gundo, who would typically handle such matters. She watched as Aunt Ayra raised an eyebrow and gave Garnt her full attention.
With a deep breath, Garnt continued, "Ayra, I need to be honest with you. I\'ve been in love with her for a long time, and I don\'t want to betray that feeling. But I also have deep feelings for you, and I don\'t want to hurt you either.
I want to be in a relationship with both of you, with your consent, if that\'s something you\'d be willing to consider."
It was shocking words that came out of his mouth, but Ayra wasn\'t fully surprised instead she just sighed.
Unami\'s jaw dropped in shock as Garnt\'s words hung in the air. She couldn\'t believe what she was hearing. She had never anticipated such a complex and unexpected turn of events. She looked from Garnt to Aunt Ayra, her mind racing with questions and emotions, unsure of how to react.
"I knew this would happen. After all, you can\'t refuse these girls," Ayra said and continued to wear her clothes.
Breaking the silence, Ayra finally spoke after wearing something, her tone tinged with a hint of sadness, "Isn\'t this going against the very things you\'ve taught us, Garnt? You\'ve always emphasized the importance of morals and principles."
Garnt met her gaze, his own filled with a complex mix of emotions. He replied, "Ayra, I\'ve taught morals, but I\'ve also taught them that life is complicated. Sometimes even I want to break those morals when my heart pulls me in different directions."
Suddenly both Ayra and Unami heard something rather disturbing from Garnt\'s mouth, that both of them wanted to pull his ear and punish him."After seeing all the deaths that happened, I wanted to live a life without any regrets.
I don\'t know whether I will die someday, so I want to live true to my desire."
"..."
[Idiot! Don\'t talk like this in front of the woman that loves you. They will think you\'re depressed or something.]
Eva scolded Garnt for his inconsiderate words.
"Shut up! Don\'t talk nonsense," Ayra shouted and Unami also agreed with her.
"Garnt, this isn\'t like you at all!" Unami muttered firmly, her voice tinged with worry.
But then Ayra looked at him, her eyes searching his face for sincerity and decided to respond to his request. "And what will you do if I say no, Garnt?" she asked, her voice soft yet laced with a hint of steel.
Garnt didn\'t hesitate. "I\'ll ask until you say yes, I\'ll do anything to convince you," he replied, determination in his voice.
Ayra sighed again, torn between her own feelings and the well-being of those she cared about. She turned her attention to Unami, who was still processing the shocking revelation.
Thinking about her own daughter and the potential impact of Garnt\'s decision affecting her, Ayra couldn\'t help but consider that it might not be such a bad idea for Garnt to have multiple women in his life, as long as he could love them equally. But the sting in her heart remained.
Finally, she spoke, her words measured, "Garnt, as long as you can truly love Unami and me equally, I don\'t mind. I still feel jealous when I think about another woman showing her love to you, but you\'re not someone who should settle with me."
"You don\'t have to break the hearts of these young girls when we can share our love." Ayra paused for a second, as she saw a smile coming onto Garnt\'s face and she sighed.
Unami watched this exchange, her heart still racing with disbelief and uncertainty. She realized that the path ahead was filled with challenges and complexities, but she also understood that love could sometimes lead people to unexpected places.
With a heavy heart, she looked at Garnt, wondering how their relationship would evolve from this moment onward.
Overwhelmed with relief, Garnt couldn\'t contain his emotions any longer. He stepped closer to Ayra and wrapped his arms around her in a tight, grateful hug.
"I love you Ayra," Garnt muttered those words to the woman, who was embarrassed by his sudden proactiveness.
Ayra, though still conflicted, couldn\'t help but reciprocate the embrace. It was a silent acknowledgement of the deep bond they shared.
As their hug lingered, Garnt suddenly leaned in and pressed his lips against Ayra\'s, a gentle but passionate kiss that conveyed his commitment to not do anything that would make her sad.
But as time went on, it turned into something else as Garnt tried to make the kiss more erotic, while touching Ayra\'s ass and playing with it.
Unami, watching with a mixture of embarrassment and curiosity, closed her eyes for a moment but couldn\'t resist peeking at them through a gap between her fingers.
"Ahhhh~ is that what an adult kiss looks like? Why is Aunt making that face? If others in the village saw her, they wouldn\'t even believe this is the same Ayra," Unami whispered to herself, her eyes wide with curiosity as she peeked at the affectionate moment between Ayra and Garnt.
Ayra, breaking the kiss, sighed softly and looked at Unami with a mixture of emotions. She realized that it was time to give them space to talk things out.
She gently withdrew from Garnt\'s embrace and then surprised Unami by grabbing her hand. She leaned in close and whispered to her, "Unami, I\'m going to leave you two alone for a while. Garnt has been through a lot, and I think you can help him more than I can right now. Show him a good time, alright?
Use this young body of yours to seduce him."
Unami nodded, her uncertainty giving way to determination. She looked at Garnt, who seemed somewhat downcast after everything that had happened in the village. With a deep breath, she decided to take charge of the situation.
As Ayra left, Unami turned to Garnt and said, "Garnt, we need to talk." She spoke truthfully about the events in the village, how they had affected her, and how she had felt about his initial reluctance to acknowledge their feelings for each other.
Garnt listened attentively, remorse and regret visible in his eyes as he realized the pain he had caused Unami. He admitted, "I was foolish, Unami. I held onto this idea of only having one girl, but I no longer want to regret things, so-"
But he couldn\'t proceed any further, as he felt the same sensation of Unami\'s lips, but this time she was trying rather hard to imitate what she saw.
She had her tongue out, but Garnt couldn\'t reciprocate her kiss so Unami ended up licking Garnt\'s whole face with a heavy blush on her face.
Realizing that she messed up, Unami tried to run away but Garnt held her hand and quickly hugged her from behind while slowly biting her ear while whispering sweet words to her.
"That was a cute expression from you! Unami is cute, so no wonder I love her."
"I\'m sorry for breaking the mood, but right now I want to show my love to you, so shall we start?" Garnt asked, as his hand suddenly creeped onto her chest and lightly squeezed her perky little nipples.
\'Hmm~ she is smaller than Aunt, but compared to girls in her age range, I would say Unami is rather mature.\'
"Garnt! I have no experience so please take care of me." While showing her aroused expression, Unami suddenly muttered those words and got ready to embrace the love of the person she liked.
