The BabyStars are still out.

I wake up the next morning to glorious sunlight and Yui talking on the phone beside me. When she notices me awake, she smiles at me and rubs me affectionately on the chest. I take the time to admire her beauty as she finishes her phone call. Her hair doesn’t look slept-in in the slightest and falls gently around her shoulders. I put it down to the heath of her hair and perhaps some property of Asian hair I don’t know.

I give her a hand a kiss when she signals that she won’t be much longer. Moments later she hangs up and kisses me good morning. That same black shiny hair covering us.

“Sorry I hope I didn’t wake you. That was my Daddy,” Yui informs me on who the phone call was to.

“No, I was waking up then anyway. Is everything ok with your Dad? He didn’t mind the wine going missing?” I ask.

“He’s fine. Just making sure his BabyStar was alright. He doesn’t like me driving if I’m going to be drinking.”

All perfectly understandable concerns for a Father to have and also the first time I had heard Yui’s Dad’s adorable pet name for his daughter. BabyStar!

“Do you have anything on today? We could go and get some brunch if you're hungry?” I ask Yui, keen to see more of her.

She gives me a sad, apologetic face before telling me, “sorry I think I need to talk to my friend Aor before I see Piya tonight.”

That’s ok. Girl’s need their girlfriends and I’m sure Yui has plenty of news to spill with this friend Aor.

“You and Piya will have lots to catch up on now,” I suggest, wondering how Piya will take what happened with Yui and I last night now.

Yui’s face clouds a little too at the prospect, “yeah. Piya has a little pool party get-together that she likes to throw.”

I nod along with the idea of Yui, Piya and bunch of her other friends together in bikinis sounding inviting. I wonder what sort of mischief could happen at one of those parties.

“But I’d really like to see you again this week,” Yui continues, “a date would be really nice. I’m in the gym most mornings if you want to meet there anytime but somewhere special in the evening sounds nice.”

“Two workouts in a day is enough for me right now,” I say which causes Yui to smile, “but I will definitely take you out on this date.” I get a second, even bigger smile at the prospect of a date.

After that Yui helps me to make the bed before we share a very playful and handsy shower together. Yui seeming to want an unending number of kisses which I am happy to supply. Dressed in her clothes from the night before again, I bid Yui farewell and continue with my own day. Before she goes, I remember to give her Piya’s clutch, sans condoms which I’m sure we’ll put to much better use.

Plans for our next date begin slowly formulating in my head as I get some study done that afternoon before I’m due back at work later that evening.
