The Story Of Esther (18+++) - Season 1 - Episode 3

However though, I do recall that it was on one of Fredrick’s many trips away from home, that my curiosity with regards to Esther’s private life, suddenly began taking a more prominent position on my list of interests! She was 22, so very much an adult. But yet, I wasn’t seeing any signs to actually suggest so. She was obviously through puberty and had quite developed finely as a young woman, but then, hardly were there any ‘girly’ moments! No requests for sanitary pads; no menstrual cramps; not even the customary mood swings! Just nothing! I couldn’t tell when she was on her period or out of it, despite being a mother and close to her! Simply because there were no clues to knowing so!
And my concerns only tripled the day I subsequently witnessed her encounter with a neighbour’s son who had been away for a very longtime. He was back and was probably trying to reacquaint himself with the neighbourhood, when he came across Esther.

Ordinarily, one would expect the undeniably handsome lad to want to strike up conversation, and then the girl likely responding and flirting with him then and again. But nah, Esther didn’t do the later.
I was outside spreading Kennedy’s napkins as this went on, and I was rather very disappointed to see her totally turn around while smiling, but abandoning the boy right on the spot. I was further hurt when I equally eventually realized, that she didn’t even know I was outside, thus she didn’t actually treat the boy that way out of fear of me reprimanding her! Instead, she did it all for a lack of interest!
Then followed the movies. As we began seeing more and more movies, I began noticing how blank she usually went whenever there was a s*x scene playing out on the screen. Not like I was hoping for a very particular reaction, but then I was going to think that a girl her age would usually want to either discuss what she was seeing, or do everything to conceal her inevitable arousal. Just like I did when I was her age. But no, Esther wasn’t the kind. She would basically sit there and stare into the screen with the least possible sign of interest as whatever guy it was in the movie, smooched away with his female counterpart. Her next glow would only come on, just after such scene was done and passed on. And this made me begin to suspect that she was probably sexually frigid, as unfortunate as that may seem! How so painful it felt that a girl as beautiful as herself was likely facing a situation like that.

And for several weeks, if not months, Esther kept on with the ‘blankness’ as we continued with the daily movie watching! It wasn’t until about Fredrick’s fourth trip since after her coming, that I picked up the courage to ask her specifically, if she had ever had a boy in her life.

“No ma.” she replied grinning.
“You mean no boy ever tickle you for belle before?” I re-twisted, trying to get her to open up.

She broke into a long laughter, before still giving the same answer – no boy!
I gave up. She was certainly telling the truth – no boy. But I totally lacked the balls to push further. I still didn’t know if she was indeed frigid or just didn’t really have interest in a relationship as at yet. I wished I could know these things, but I just didn’t know how to ask her without looking like I was forcing her development. I also didn’t want to look like the mistress who ‘pushed’ her maid into the mucky waters of boys and players! She was still very young, so definitely had a lot of time ahead of her for whatever decision she had to take. Moreover, there was still the tertiary entrance exam before her, which she still needed to pass. So, when I couldn’t get any real facts to conclude my hypothesis, I gave up.

Yet, that same day I had asked her if she’s ever had a boyfriend, did mark the beginning of a sudden but obvious change in Esther’s choice of movies! Given I usually left the choice of what movie to bring home on hire to her, she had always brought home movies of any genre she liked; albeit all of them.
