“I’m trying to get the gossip tea on what happened with Duck.”
Thandi snickered from the door.
Fen looked the other way.
“Oh. I bet this is so good.” I crossed my arms over my chest. “Come on. No secrets. We’re going to be together for a long time. We might as well be friends on some level.”
That smirk returned to Lan’s face. “Well. . .it is inappropriate to tell you. . .I think. I mean. At least what he did was inappropriate so we don’t want to get him in trouble and be disrespectful to you with the content of the conversation.”
“I’m not a queen.”
Lan gave me a stern look. “You’re the Mountain Mistress of the Four Aces, so yes. . .you are a queen, when it comes to the East.”
I blinked.
Lan shrugged.
Fen blushed. “What Duck did was very inappropriate.”
“Guess what?” I whispered back at them. “Queen or not. . .I love inappropriate conversations.”
Lan chuckled.
“What did Duck do?” I eyed Fen.
She widened her eyes. “I hope he doesn’t get in trouble. It was Thandi’s fault for why he did it and she should not get in trouble either.”
I waved my hands. “No one’s getting in trouble.”
“Wow, Fen. That’s not fair,” Thandi spoke from behind me, but her voice still held humor. “We were all wondering. . .”
The suspense was killing me. “Wondering what?”
Lan let out a long breath. “Duck showed us his penis.”
Oh. . .
Shocked out of my fucking mind, my jaw dropped and no words left my mouth.
Thandi chuckled.
I gathered myself. “No. He didn’t.”
Fen whispered. “He did.”
“Oh my God.” I started to laugh. “Why would he do that?”
Lan and Fen looked at Thandi.
Then, I turned to her.
Thandi didn’t appear embarrassed or regretful at all which told me that she was the sort of real chick I would love to be around.
Oh she’s going to be fun.
“Girl, come on over here and tell me what happened.” I chuckled. “I really want the gossip tea.”
Leaving the door and heading our way, Thandi shrugged. “I just asked him why they called him Duck.”
“Oh God.” I held up my hand. “And he told you that it was because ducks had corkscrew penises?”
“Yes.” Thandi bobbed her head. “After he said that, I. . .had more questions.”
“Listen.” I nodded. “I get it, girl. I see you.”
They laughed.
Thandi continued, “So, when we were in the hallway with just Duck because Chen had to get the keys to our rooms and Hu went with him. . .I asked to see his. . .you know. . .”
Fen frowned. “And he didn’t hesitate or say a word, he just whipped it out for us.”
“Oh wow.” I covered my face with my hands. “Are you serious?”
“That’s what Duck did,” Thandi said. “And. . .well. . .it isn’t corkscrew, but. . .”
“But?” I moved my hands. “Come on. You can’t leave me hanging like that.”
Thandi leaned forward and whispered, “It’s. . .very. . .very long and. . .curved.”
“Like a serpent,” Fen added.
Lan and Thandi laughed.
Fen shrugged.
I blinked. “Curved though?”
“About. . .ten degrees curved, not to make sex impossible just. . .interesting.” Then, Thandi commenced to hold her arm out and show me.
“Alright Duck.” I widened my eyes. “Long, curved penis for the win.”
Fen spoke, “Duck told us that when he got his first erection and showed Lei and Chen, they picked at him.”
I had so many questions like. . .why was he showing his erect penis to his cousin and brother? But, I already had learned too damn much about him today.
“Duck thought something was wrong with him,” Lan went over to the table and checked my four ingredients. “But the doctor told him that his penis was fine and that he should feel lucky that he wasn’t a duck because—”
“Ducks have corkscrew penises.” I grinned and went over to the table too. “Now I get it. Mystery solved.”
Chuckling, Fen and Thandi gathered around me as I got in front of the blue ceramic pot. It was a faded, dusty sky blue, decorated with swirly lines.
I picked up the Hibiscus and sprinkled it into the pot.
The petals settled at the bottom.
Lan watched me. “Then, Chen entered the hallway, screamed when he saw Duck’s penis and then yelled at Duck for several minutes.”
“Oh, I know Chen lost his mind.” I tried to imagine Chen walking up on Duck just wagging his curved-penis around in front of my new ladies-in-waiting and laughed to myself.
At this point, Chen would need to go to the hospital soon, either Duck, Lei, or me was going to give him a heart attack.
I picked up the bowl of Chamomile leaves and added them to the pot. Their gentle, soothing fragrance blended with the bold scent of Hibiscus.
This is going to be good. I’m really enjoying the smell.
The combination was already intoxicating.
Fen spoke, “Hu is a great fighter. I think he will teach us a lot.”
