CHAPTER 33: SHORT TALES – SOKKA'S DILEMMA (II)

A young man and woman sat in a rather famous Bar on the East side of the city. One was Sokka who looked a little dejected and annoyed by recent events in his life.

The other was Manori, an extremely attractive young woman that could probably destroy nations with her beauty alone. Not to mention she was a world class assasin who could probably take down a small nation.

"So Sokka... tell me what's going on with you." Manori began.

Sokka showed a bit of hesitation at her question. He looked straight at her but then he suddenly realised just how beautiful the woman sitting infront of him actually was. She looked like a princess from a fantasy. Hurriedly he looked down on the table to avoid eye contact. Manori being so adept at social cues quickly noticed his change in demeanor.

Manori was very aware of her beauty. In fact it was one of the strongest weapons in her arsenal. She didn't mind using her beauty to get her way in situations she couldn't fight her way out of or when she wasn't in the mood to fight. Young or old, men or women, she had yet to meet a man who wasn't taken by her beauty.

"Concentrate Sokka," she urged him. "We both want the same thing so trust me and tell me what is bothering you."

Her words seemed to sooth Sokka but he still dared not look at her directly. He let out a long and exaggerated sigh before finally speaking.

"Something happened last night and its... its so embarassing," he began.

"Go on..." she urged him to continue. "Whatever you say will be between you and me. There is nothing to be afraid of."

"Well you know my girlfriend Suki right?" He continued. Manori nodded in response. "Well last night she and I were alone for the first time. I-"

"Hey guys," Another voice suddenly interrupted Sokka. "What can I get you?" Diya the waitress asked.

"Give me the other dish with the spiced meat and soft bread plus some wine," Sokka ordered almost gladly. Manori noticed the relieve in his voice and smiled at him. Just the smile made his heart skip a beat.

"I will have the same but make the wine whiskey," she too ordered. As Diya left she turned her attention back to Sokka. "Go on Sokka."

"Agh... fine," Sokka surrendered. "Well with us alone for the first time since we left Kyoshi or really ever, I initiated the start of you know....?"

"You wanted to have sex?" Manori finished his sentence. "So she refused?"

"No... infact she was almost as excited as I was." Sokka answered.

"So what's the problem?" Manori urged.

"Well you see... It was my first time," Sokka revealed.

"So she had experience?" She asked.

"Not really," Sokka answered. "She said she fooled around a few times on the island with the girls but they never went all out."

"Well than what happened? Did you not enjoy it or what?"

"That's the thing, I fucking loved every minute of it!!"

"I still don't see what the problem is."

"Well I never really had any formal training or anything of the sort. Everything I learn about being a warrior and stuff like that I learnt through life. So I had accepted the fact that even though I was a man, Suki was stronger then me and could easily defeat me. Reluctantly I had to accept that fact but last night I realised another fact. Last night it wasn't so much that we had sex but more like... she was the one who fucked me. It wasn't the other way around but more like I was the girl."

Manori sat in stunned silence at the revelation. She expected maybe that it wasn't as good because of his inexperience or both their inexperience but this was something entirely different. Even though he didn't say it exactly she got his point clear as day. During her training she had to gain experience which made her comfortable with her body and beauty but this guy. She now understood why his male bravado was all over the place. His girlfriend fucked him instead of him fucking her.

Sokka sat in silence as well as he watched her stunned face. She was not judging him or at least he hoped she was not. He was curious though about what was going through her head exactly.

"Say someth-"

"Here is you food guys," Diya suddenly returned with their orders. "Two orders of barbeque pork meat with a side of bread, one order of rice wine and one order of whisky imported from the East."

"Thank you Diya," Manori thanked.

"Yeah thanks," Sokka added.

"You are welcome," Diya said. "If you need anything else I will be busy with the others so just give me a shout."

The delicious smell of the meat caught his nose but he held firm and turned his attention back to Manori.

"Sooooooo.... say something..." He pleaded.

Manori didn't reply but instead contemplated for a brief moment. She took a sip of the whiskey and then looked up at him.

"So you are not comfortable being the one fucked by your girlfriend because you are a man?" She asked. Sokka nodded in response. "So can I assume that you did not tell her of this?"

"Of course not." Sokka defied. "What kind of guy tells his girl she rode him like like a fucking rhino all night long and it was the best experience of his life but he needs to be the one to dominate the coidal session?"
