Reverse World

Chapter 136: Chapter 136 – Grocery shopping

After a long time and a lot of violent spasming, the tension of her orgasm eventually left her, her legs falling on each side of him, plopping powerlessly on the car seats. She was breathless for a long moment, trying to recuperate after cumming so hard. After a minute, Benjamin laid down on top of her and took her in his arms, cuddling with her until she got better. She smiled weakly at his gesture and put her arms around his back, returning his hug, full of love. After she stopped panting so hard, he went to kiss her and she responded to him softly, the both of them sharing their feelings with some slow tongue entanglements. She broke off their kiss to convey her feelings.

"Thank you, darling, I really needed this. That was the best sex I ever had."

"It felt amazing for me too."

They cuddled for some minutes until Benjamin lifted himself again. He wished he could have stayed inside her arms more and also potentially get the final release he didn\'t manage to have but time didn\'t wait for them. His mother acted quite impulsively when taking the car out and it hadn\'t been the best time to do so. Soon, he would need to prepare dinner and they had to make the correct preparations for this.

"Mom, let\'s clean up and go for some grocery shopping. We can use this as an excuse for us going out together at this time of the day."

"Right. Sorry, Ben, I acted without thinking, I was too excited."

"It\'s fine, it was my fault to begin with."

They cleaned themselves up until they were presentable enough and left the back seats to go back to the front seats. The car would probably need more throughout cleaning but that would have to be left to another time. His mother restarted the car and drove them to the closest mart. They went shopping together, Benjamin picking things they needed or might need in the future based on what he remembered they had left at home. They were done pretty quickly since they hadn\'t needed to shop in the first place and his mother paid for the grocery before carrying everything to the car trunk. When Benjamin asked to share the load, she rejected him and didn\'t let him carry anything, saying that this much was nothing and that she was completely fine. This was her strong and dignified feminine front talking, the one she tried hard to project to the world even though she really was a total softie on the inside. This made him smile and he didn\'t argue with her, letting her do as she pleased.

Once the groceries were loaded, they drove back to their house. Barely a few minutes later, they entered their house and went to the kitchen, where she stored the groceries under his directions. Grace was in the living room and chatted with them as they did so.

"You went shopping for groceries together? That\'s rare."

His mother looked a bit guilty but he tried hard to keep a neutral expression to answer her.

"Yeah, it went fast since she drove me there. Saved me time and effort."

"Nice."

Now that everything was at the right place, he started cooking dinner straight away, with his sister and mother watching him do so while exchanging news of their day. There wasn\'t much to say and they quickly switched the TV on, right in time to catch some political program.

"Mrs. Pertex, you are our political expert today. Can you tell us more about the recent reforms adopted by the government?"

"Our president is adopting two series of reforms in parallel. On the one hand, he is trying to increase men\'s position in society by giving them equal opportunities, more rights, and hardening punishments for crimes against them. On the other hand, he is also promoting some changes that women have been asking for, for a long time. This includes the very controversial law about legally approving sexual establishments as well as government subsidies for companies working in the pornographic industry."

"How do you explain these two completely different series of changes?"

"In a way, they are not a surprise. He has run his candidacy based on the promise of doing these exact changes and they are precisely the reason why he was elected in the first place. What is more interesting is that these changes that seem completely unrelated are actually not so. Men often seek partners that are as good as them or better. This means that increasing men\'s status in society also implies that more men are going to seek partners among an increasingly smaller pool of elite women. This will consequently create more and more single women among the average population. As we all know, frustrated women are never a good thing, hence the law about allowing sexual establishments and helping the pornographic industry."

"Mr. Hardwood thought that far when pushing for those changes?"

"That\'s correct. No matter what everyone says, he is a veteran politician. Even though a lot of people criticized him for the changes he made to our country, no one can deny that they follow a very precise line of thought. As for whether they will have a positive or negative impact in the long term, that is something we can leave for future historians to debate."

"Thank you very much for your eye-opening explanation, Mrs. Pertex. Let\'s move on with..."

Benjamin also listened on while cooking and thought that this was very interesting. He now understood that this was the reason why shops like Hop/e started to become legal recently and it all made sense now. He had never put much thoughts into politics and didn\'t pay attention to them or the president but this changed his mind a little. The president and his government didn\'t blindly increase men\'s position in society like your average masculist would have done but also thought of the consequences of those changes and reacted accordingly.

When he finished cooking, most of his family members were in front of the TV, waiting for dinner time. They called over the ones that were still in their rooms and started a peaceful meal. They talked about the political program they just watched, including the changes done by the new government, and Benjamin was surprised to see that they seemed to take those changes quite positively overall. Once dinner was finished, they cleaned up everything before going back to their rooms. Benjamin studied for a while before playing some games on his computer. When it got late, he changed into his pajamas and went to get some much-merited sleep.
