She watched me. “I know you’re probably busy, but. . .could we begin the research in a few days? When would be good for you?”
I thought of how wet her pussy would get during that supposed research. “We’ll start tomorrow night, Tora.”
“Oh. Really?”
“Yes.”
“You sound eager.”
“I’ve always wanted to be a research assistant. It’s been a dream of mine.”
She chuckled.
I turned to her presents for me. “What's inside of those?”
“If I wanted you to know, I wouldn’t have wrapped them.”
“Naughty Tora,” I grabbed the biggest gift and pulled it over to me—gold paper and brilliant bows. I loved her attention to detail and also wondered how she knew gold and black were my favorite colors.
Right as I began to tear through the paper, she spoke. “Stop. Kenji, you’re supposed to wait until after you leave me to open the gift. At least, that’s what my friend says.”
“I don't like waiting.”
“Clearly.”
What did she get me?
Chapter fifteen
The Penis Notion
Nyomi
Kenji tore into the wrapping paper like a wolf clawing through silk—feral, amused, and completely unbothered by the ribbons I’d tied so carefully.
When the paper fell away and the box yawned open, Kenji peered inside with the sort of anticipation I hadn’t expected from a man who probably received Rolexes and rare swords as stocking stuffers every Christmas.
He pulled out the plant.
I braced myself.
Is he going to like it? Or not?
Against Zo’s wishes, I’d spent the entire day searching for an incredibly special plant, one that looked as close to a penis as possible.
There weren't many out there and I doubted my pitiful attempt at Japanese had gotten my point across with many of the florists. A few had escorted me out each time I yelled outchinkoand then tried to form a huge penis with my hands.
Regardless, I’d hit the jackpot at my last store by buying thetitan arum.
It meant “giant phallus.”
One petal circled the bottom. At the center was a huge penis-shaped bunch of flowers that stuck together and soared up a foot.
Unfortunately, the downside of the poortitan anumwas that it smelled like a dead animal.
The rank scent hit the air in seconds.
Kenji’s nose twitched.
