Pool time (part 3)

We swim a few laps while Ram comes splashing after us with her floating tire. After a few minutes we meet again at the edge of the pool. Hermione, is gone for a moment, as she wanted to get a book.

We chat a bit. "How do you like it here with me so far?" I ask them both. They look at each other for a moment and Ram answers first.

"I like it quite a bit" she says smiling. "I miss my sister a lot, but your gift makes it okay to some extent. However, I already hope to see her again in the future."

"I am sorry that you miss your sister. I'm afraid I can't bring her here to you, as she will probably already belong to someone else, and another Rem will definitely not be the same for you."

She just nods. "I didn't mean it to come across as sad. I'll try to make it as good as I can for you, as long as you follow my rules."

I look to Ikumi now. "And how is it with you?"

"Well, I actually think it's okay here. There are some things I miss, but many things I like I can do here. I can cook, lounge around and watch TV every now and then."

"I'm glad to hear that" I say and smile at her.

During the conversation between Ikumi and I, Ram keeps looking at Ikumi and blushing.

"Is something Ram?" I ask her when I notice it again. "Oh uhh nothing" she says and we get even redder in the face.

"You always look at Ikumi, are you sure everything is ok?" I ask again. "It... it's just, her boobs..." she says innocently and nervously. Ram holds her hands in front of her small breasts and I can guess what's going on.

"Ikumi, could you give us a minute?" "Sure, I'll go outside and see if it's warm enough to go swimming outside."

Ikumi swims to the stairs and then walks through a door into the garden.

"What's the matter Ram? You think your breasts are too small?" I ask her directly. She just nods, probably embarrassed.

I take her in my arms and hug her to me. "Ram, what are you worried about? Do you think I would have taken you if I didn't think you were pretty?" I ask her.

She gets even redder in the face and puts her head on my chest. "It's just, Ikumi is so pretty and has such a great body. I'm already jealous of her. Also, despite the fact that my sister and I are twins and are physically very similar to each other, she has bigger boobs than me."

"Ram, you know, if I wanted your sister I would have bought her, but I wanted you. I think you're pretty and I don't care how big your boobs are or anything, I wanted you because I like you."

Ram just looks up at me, she can barely stand in the pool, only the tips of her toes touch the ground. Her face is almost as pink as her hair, but in her eyes I see something that wasn't there before.

She closes her eyes and snuggles up to me. I stroke her head a little with one hand.

A short time later, Ikumi rejoins us and Ram breaks away from me. "I think it's warm enough to go outside" she says.

"Ok" I just give back and walk out of the pool.

I go to the glass wall that separates the 2 pools. Then I press a button on the wall and the glass wall moves up, turning 2 polls into one big one.

"Wow" says Ram, who is still in the water watching me. She grabs her ring and swims out with it.

Hermione comes back into the room. "Where are Ram and Ikumi?" she asks, looking around. "Outside" I answer her. "Come let's go outside too."

We take a couple of loungers and put them outside by the pool. The outdoor pool is smaller than the indoor pool. This one is also tiled, and there are a few in around the pool as well, so you don't have to walk on dirt when you step out of the pool for a bit.

Hermione and I put 4 loungers by the pool for us. Ikumi inspects the grill, which was left behind by the previous homeowner.

"I'll start grilling in a few hours" she says and lies down on one of the loungers. She closes her eyes and lets herself get some tan.

Hermione grabs a lounger too and lies down with her book next to Ikumi.

I shrug my shoulders and join Ram in the water.

After a few hours, the 4 of us are all sitting together at the garden table, eagerly awaiting Ikumi's grilled meat. In between I called the limousine service mentioned in the letter and ordered it for 5:45 pm.

After eating Ikumi's perfectly grilled food, we all lie on the loungers for a bit and talk until it is gradually time to get ready for the evening.

We pack everything up and put it back inside. I close the glass wall and go up to my room.

Upstairs, I take a shower and slowly get ready until someone knocks on my door.

I turn to the door in surprise and open it. Standing on the other side is Ram. "Is there anything I can do to help you get dressed?" she asks nervously.

I look a little surprised. "I don't know, you don't have to do that." "I want to though... after all, it's a maiden's job to get the master of the house ready." She is red in the face and looks sheepishly at the floor.

"Come in then." I open the door so she can come in. I go back to the mirror.

I'm already wearing my suit pants and a white shirt. I put on my suit and look at myself in the mirror.

"What do you think of my outfit?" I ask Ram which looks at me. "The clothes here are a little different than in my old world, but it looks very elegant" she replies.

I take my tie now and tie it and put it on. Ram comes over to me. "Would you like me to try this?" she asks, pointing to my tie, which is not tied very well.

"Gladly." I hand her the tie and she quickly ties it again. This time, however, it looks much better.

"Thanks," I say to her as I put the tie on. "What do you think, can I go out like this?"

Ram smiles at me. "Yes the outfit looks very good" she says and smiles again.

I put on my shoes, which Ram helps me with after asking several times, and walk with her to the front door.

It's 5:40 p.m. and my limousine should arrive in a few minutes.

"Have a nice evening" I say to all 3 of them as Hermione and Ikumi join us. "Don't mess around and you'll get your MP3 players on Monday ok?"

"Yes" all 3 say together and the doorbell rings. I open it and walk out.
