PART THREE

We enjoyed the sangria and everyone seemed relaxed and happy. Connie fell asleep next to me, lying in her side facing where Tim and Anna were lying so that her boobs were facing them, although partially covered by her arm. Anna was sat up leaning back with her hands in the sand behind her and the angle made her boobs look great and much more pert. Rishabh and Radika headed to the sea for a swim hand in hand and I couldn't help but admire Radika's body as she walked down the beach. I watched them in teh sea and it was nice to see them happy and seemingly with the argument from earlier well behind them. They were cuddling each other and giggling and I could tell that Rishabh was trying to grope Radika's boobs under the water, much to her amusement.

After 20 minutes or so they returned to where we were sitting and when Radika lay down next to me she lay on her front and then undid her bikini top behind her back. She then pulled it out from under her and asked Rishabh to hang it up on our umbrella shade so that it would dry. Rishabh did this seemingly with no problem and the three of us chatted for the next little while as Connie continued to nap and Tim and Anna lay on the otherside of her just chilling and reading their books. As we chatted more Radika, at times, leant up on her elbows and in doing so revealed most of her boobs to me on one side and Rishabh on the other. Rishabh didn't seem bothered and I got the impression Radika was testing the water a bit as, when I offered her some crisps, she leant over toward me to take some from the bag and made no attempt to not flash me her boobs in doing so.

Anna was now asleep too and when Tim asked if anyone wanted to go for a swim to cool down Rishabh immediately said yes and then so did Connie who had just woken up from her nap. I said I was going to stay put for now and Radika said she was too. I wondered what Connie would do about going to the water with the other two boys. She was clearly having the same thought process as when she sat up she picked up her bikini top and felt it to see how wet it was. She had it in her hands for about 20 seconds before putting it back down and jumping up and heading to the sea without it. Rishabh and Tim followed her and I was sure they were both quite happy with the situation. When Connie got to the water she kept walking and then dived in and swam out a bit. The two boys stayed in the shallower water wallowing about. After a few minutes Connie swam back in and joined them in the shallow water. While she was not keeping herself completely covered I did notice that she was obviously making an effort to keep her boobs below the waterline as the chatted to the boys.

After a few more minutes I told Radika that I was going to join them in the water and she said she would too. I stood up and was about to head to the water when she asked me if I could pass her her top which was hanging up on the umbrella. I retrieved her top and passed it to her and she immediately sat up and then to my surprise stood up before attempting to put it on. She turned towards the sea and immediately noted that Rishabh was watching her from the water. She casually waved to him before turning back towards me and made conversation as she put her bikini top back on. There is no doubt that she has fantastic boobs and it was not lost on me that, as far as I could tell, she was the only woman of Asian descent who was topless on the beach. I was slightly concerned that this whole sequence would have annoyed Rishabh so I was pleased when we got to the water and he seemed completely at ease.

The combination of my and Radika's presence seemed to relax Connie as before long she was kneeling in the shallow water with her boobs above the waterline and was chatting away to everyone. A few minutes later Anna joined us but had her top back on...she explained that she was worried she was getting burnt as she hadn't put cream on for a while. I asked if anyone would like a final beer before heading back to the hotel and everyone said yes immediately so I headed up to the bar to buy them. As I walked back the others were all coming out of the sea and returning to our base camp. Connie looked incredible in her small bikini bottoms and with her wet boobs glistening in the sun. The combination of water and a light breeze that had picked up meant her nipples were erect and her areolas as small as they go resulting in her boobs looking even better than usual. I was slightly mesmerised by her and then noticed that Rishabh was also looking at her and that Radika had noticed.

As I approached the group Anna took her top off and hung it up on the umbrella to dry and asked for the suncream. She proceeded to apply plenty of lotion to her boobs while standing right in front of everyone and continuing to chat. Radika said to Tim that she had a spare bikini top in her bag that was just next to him so could he throw it to her. Tim wasn't sure if he should go in a girl's bag so Connie grabbed it and found Radika's spare top. By this point I was standing next to Rishabh with Radika facing us and with her back to the other three. Connie came over with the top and offered it to Radika who asked her to hold on to it for a moment. She then put her hands behind her back and unclasped her bikini, took it off and walked towards Rishabh and I to hang it on the umbrella. Rishabh rather quickly said "I can take that, Connie has your other top" but Radika ignored him and went about hanging her top up on the umbrella. She then came over to me and took a beer from me and had a drink from it. Rishabh was clearly not happy again and said "Babe please, put your top on". Radika took her top from Connie and put it on but didn't make any effort not to continue to have her boobs on show to me and Connie as she did so. Once on she said "I know you are struggling with this babe but I really want to embrace the topless culture while we are here as it is very empowering and I don't know when I will ever be back to somewhere like this again". Rishabh didn't respond and once we had finished our beers we all packed up our stuff and headed back to the hotel.

That evening we just went for a local pizza and headed to bed early as we were all tired from day drinking, lots of sun and the night before.

The next morning I was up early so went to the gym. When I got there Rishabh was already there and we worked out together. When we finished we went to get a coffee from the restaurant and I decided to broach the awkward subject. Rishabh explained that Radika had never been topless before, even when it was just the two of them on holiday, and the idea of her being topless infront of others was something he was really struggling with as he had always had the point of view that her body was only for his eyes and no one elses. I said that I understood that and that, in the majority of circumstances, I would feel the same about Connie but that she had shown me on previous holidays that boobs are really not all that exciting and that ladies should have just as much freedom to be topless as men have. I also told him that it was very empowering for Connie and that it made her feel sexy even if that was not the reason she was doing it. This seemed to interest Rishabh and he asked if it also made her horny and I admitted that it had a good affect on both of us as we always had a lot of sex when we were on holiday and she had been topless during the day. We continued to chat and Rishabh admitted that, while he could admire Connie and Anna and their bodies, seeing them topless had not really turned him on per se and that in fact the most turned on he had been was when Radika had changed her top in front of me and Connie towards the end of the day yesterday...although he also felt jealous, anxious and annoyed at the same time! I said that I had noticed him looking at Connie and he said that she was very sexy and had great boobs but the main thing he was thinking about when he was looking at her was whether or not he could ever imagine being cool with Radika doing the same.

We chatted for quite a while and by the time we made our way back to the rooms I was still far from certain that he was likely to get any more comfortable with things. When we got back to the rooms I walked out on to our terrace to find Connie in our swimming pool. I sat down on the edge of the pool and told her about my conversation with Rishabh, including the bit about him looking at her but thinking about Radika. Connie was convinced it was just a matter of forcing the issue a bit as he was bound to discover that once he got over his initial anxiety there was nothing to worry about and only something to enjoy. Connie pointed out that Radika was clearly trying to move the boundaries and that it was probably going to be a case of two steps forwards and one back. Tim appeared around the corner and came to join us. He asked what our secret conversation was about and I told him about Rishabh's unease with the whole topless thing and that it was causing him quite a lot of anxeity. Tim said that we should get Anna to speak to him as she had a really good outlook on it and what she had said had made a lot of sense to Tim and helped him get over his initial concerns and mixed feelings about it.

After a few more minutes of chatting Connie got out of the pool and immediately took her bikini top off and hung it over one of the chairs on our terrace. Tim didn't flinch and carried on chatting to us as Connie set herself up on one of the sunloungers. Before long Anna appeared and she was wearing a little beach dress and sat down on the other sun lounger. We told her about our plan for her to speak to Rishabh and she said she would if the right moment arrived but that she didn't want to force it or ambush him as it was really for them to sort out as a couple. After a while Radika appeared in the bikini she had worn on the first day and told us that her and Rishabh were going to have a quiet morning on their terrace and have some time just to themselves. We told her to enjoy the chill time and decided that the 4 of us would go down to the hotel beach and and have a swim and a coffee somewhere.

We gathered our stuff and headed down to the beach which was still quite quiet given it was only 10am. We set ourselves up and both girls pulled off their beach dresses and headed down to the sea for a swim. Both of them still had their tops on but as they walked away I noticed that Anna was wearing a thong biking bottom! Anna has a great curvy but not too big bum and it was amazing to see her showing it off in this way. When they returned they both lay down and took their tops off and we all spent some time reading and dozing in the morning sun. After a while Anna asked Connie if she wanted to join her to get some coffees and waters as there was a beach bar a couple of hundred metres along the beach from where we were lying. Connie said sure and jumped up and they headed off together carrying their tops but not wearing them. I watched them as they walked along the beach and there was no doubt that they were turning quite a few heads! About 15 minutes later I saw them walking back towards us with an additional person alongside them. Connie had her top back on but Anna was still topless and I could see that the 3rd person was a man. When they got closer it became clear that he was from the beach bar and was helping them carry all the drinks as they had 4 coffees, 4 waters and some pastries. He was a friendly guy and we thanked him for helping the girls and he walked off. "How did that come about" Tim asked and the girls explined that Connie had put her top on to go inside the beach bar as she needed the loo and by the time she came out Anna had bought all the supplies and was trying to work out how they were going to carry them all. The guy behind the bar offered to help and so they had said yes please. Tim asked if Anna had wanted to put her top back on and she said that it had crossed her mind but the guy hadn't seemed bothered so she just carried on. Tim smiled and I could tell he was quite impressed by how confident she was being walking around in only a pair of bikini bottoms.

After we had finished the coffees and pastries we decided to head back to the hotel to find R & R and make a plan for the rest of the day. When we got back to our rooms we walked out on to the terrace and called out hello to R & R. Rishabh was in the pool on an inflatable and seemed to be half asleep as he just vaguely lifted his cap off his face to nod to us before putting it back across his eyes. Radika was sunbathing on her lounger on her back and she was topless. She called out hello and asked how the beach was. I decided to keep my distance to be respectful but Connie walked over to her and sat down. A minute later Anna came out of her room and was only wearing her thong bottoms. She hung her damp bikini top up and walked round to join the other two girls. All this time Rishabh remained on his lilo with his cap over his face and I wondered whether he even knew that Radika was topless. After a few minutes of discussing plans the girls said that they wanted to go out for lunch and then to a rocky beach they had heard of where there were lots of places from whcih you could jump or dive into the sea and then climb back out again. Apparently it was quite a hippy place.

Rishabh got off his inflatable and walked up the steps out of the pool and said that sounded like a good plan. Given Tim was not around and I was sitting all the way over on my own terrace Rishabh seemed to be quite relaxed about Radika being topless in front of the girls. The next discussion was about where to go for lunch and Rishabh called me over to join the discussion. I walked over and Radika was still lying on her lounger on her back but had now d****d her bikini top over her boobs. Within a minute or so her top had moved as a result of her gesticulating with her arms as she talked and her left nipple was exposed. Rishabh had clearly noticed but didn't say anything. We soon had a plan and agreed it was time to get going. Radika said she needed to cool off first and got up and walked to the edge of her pool covering her boobs with her arm and then jumped in. As soon as she was in the water we all got up and started making our way back to our own rooms but as Connie and I walked away Rishabh called out to us to ask if he could borrow a phone charger as his was not working. I told him I would bring one round straightaway. I grabbed the phone charger and headed back towards their terrace. Radika was still in the pool but I could hear Rishabh encouraging her to get out as we needed to get going. Radika started making her way to the steps of the pool just as I reached their terrace and I purposely turned towards their room to find Rishabh and give him the phone charger. He thanked me and I could see in his eyes that he was watching Radika behind me and there was a degree of panic in his eyes.

Radika walked past me and half turned to give Rishabh a kiss on the cheek as she went by. She was topless and making no effort to cover herself although she largely had he back to me other than when she turned to kiss Rishabh. Just as she was getting into their room Rishabh suddenly said "don't forget your bikni top" and walked over to her sun lounger to retrieve it for her. Radika turned around and wlaked back towards him to take it from him and he smiled as he handed it to her right next to me. Radika made no effort to cover her boobs before turning and wlaking back into her room. Rishabh smiled at me and followed her inside.
