Daggum stuck out his bottom lip in a mock pout. “I was kind of enjoying the kissing…” and then he smiled. “But I suppose a nice warm bath is in oder… especially if I am taking it with you.” and he gave her a wink. Without looking, he reached back and pressed the button and then looked down at V’s legs wrapped around him. Cocking his head to the side, he gave her a side-eyed glance.

“Why my dear Mrs. Hammor… whatever will the staff think if they see us in such a position?” and he grinned wickedly.

Mr. Hammor, Betrothed of Mrs. Hammor

Viyara gave a small shrug and then grinned mischievously. “Who cares what others think, Mr. Hammor?” she asked. Though contrary to her words, she did slip gracefully of his lap and reached for her robe. “Though I do think they said something about wearing the robes, didn’t they?” she pondered, while pretending to look disgruntled. Whatever had just happened between them had felt really good and part of her wanted to continue along that path. But she was self-reflective enough to know that that might not be a good idea. He was really good person and she started to have the feeling that having him in her life in some way would do her good. Maybe even both of them. And she didn’t want to ruin that.

Hammor chuckled. “They also said they understood modesty was fluid between cultures, but I suppose the robe may be a good idea.” He stood up and turned his back to her as he slipped on the robe, thankful that something covered his reaction to her smile and sudden move off his lap.

“True and they are probably used to a lot,” Viyara grinned as she tied the belt of her robe.

As he tied the belt, there was a soft knock and the door slid open part way. A Bolian woman stuck her head in, but looked away from the two inside… obviously not her first day at the spa. “Mr. and. Mrs. Hammor? We have the mud bath ready for you, or we can wait while you… finish getting settled?” Her tone was suggestive and non-judgemental, but still quite professional. Again… not her first day.

Hammor looked at Viyara and smiled. “I think we are ready, don’t you love?” Again tears welled up in his eyes and he quickly picked up a glass of water to hide his almost-laughter.

Mr. Hammor, of the Carniss Hammors

“Yes, I would say so as well honey,” Viyara replied with a side-way glance at Daggum. In an attempt to stop herself from laughing, she pressed her lips together. It was only then that she realised that it was probably obvious that she had cried only moments ago. Turning away from the door, she reached for a glass of water as well, though more as a pretence than because she really felt like drinking some water, and wiped quickly over her face with the sleeve. She knew that that might not do much as her tears had long dried, but it was worth a try in her opinion.

Taking a deep breath, Viyara turned around again and looked from Daggum to the Bolian woman and back again. “Shall we?” she asked with a wide and charming smile.

~Mrs. Hammor, aka Viyara Nazeen

As Hammor ushered Viyara forward with a hand gently to her lower back, he said “Absolutely.” The attendant smiled and said “Please follow me.” and she led them directly across the hall.

The door opened to reveal a large open space with a white tile floor and the same wood treatment as the front of the spa on the walls. The wall opposite the door was entirely glass and looked out over what appeared to be a lush tropical forest… in actuality a top of the line holo. In the middle of the floor was an open area, three meters by five meters, filled with a deep, dark brown substance. Two pillows lay on one side of the bath about a meter apart on the shorter edge. Two open showers were visible on the right wall, and hooks on the wall by each.

The Bolian led them in and said “This is the Rigelian mud bath. We import the mud directly and it is kept at the optimal temperature for therapy and relaxation: hot, but not overly so. It will take you a bit to adjust, so be ready for that. When you disrobe, you will find steps here -” and she pointed to the side nearest the door, “- that will allow you step down into the bath. It is one and a half meters deep, but you will find that you won’t sink much once you lay back and put your heads on the pillows. You should submerge up to your neck, but please don’t attempt to ‘swim’ around. The mud is quite viscous, and we don’t want you unbale to come up for air, after all.” and she laughed slightly.

“We will bring refreshments, compliments of Management, in in about half an hour. You will spend ninety minutes in the bath, and then I will come and assist you to the shower and help you both clean up. My name is Holsa, and I will be your service coordinator for the day. There are call buttons by each pillow so if you need me for anything… anything at all… just press and I will come to assist.” and she looked at each of them for questions.

“Now if you care to disrobe, I can assist you into the bath. Or I can leave and wait outside till you are settled. Which would you prefer?” and she looked at Viyara.
