Terk is worried about how Kenji and everyone will react that she kissed Kenji unexpectedly so she seeks advice from Kala.


Terk was back in the jungle and carried Kenji on her back the whole time, she was feeling her heart race from worry and her mind was racing with all sorts of thoughts that ran wild in her head. She kissed Kenji a second time but this time, Kenji witnessed her kissing him.

"I can't believe I did that in front of everyone." said Terk as she stopped walking.

She started to pull him off her back and laid him down near a tree. Terk was seeing that Kenji was still unconscious from fainting, she tried to gently shake his arm to wake him up but he didn't wake up.

"Come on little man, up an at' em." said Terk as she tries to wake him.

Terk's method wasn't working and she stopped shaking him. She than looked at him and gently placed her head towards his chest, she could hear Kenji's heart still beating but a bit faster from surprise which was probably due to the surprise kiss. Terk sat up and looked at Kenji.

"What am I going to tell the others?" said Terk shaking her head a bit.

"Tell them what?" came a female's voice.

Terk looked up and saw it was Kala. The large female gorilla came over to them and she saw Kenji laying down near a tree, than she looked at Terk with a look of curiosity.

"Auntie Kala, I know what your thinking but Kenji's alright." said Terk as she knew Kala was curious about Kenji being unconscious.

"What happened? Did Kenji get hit over the head with a coconut again?" asked Kala as she showed concern.

"No, it's something else." said Terk as she was starting to look down. "I did something that was really dumb, I just wasn't thinking, it just sort of happened."

Kala placed one of her hand paws on Terk's shoulder as she could sense how Terk is feeling since Kala has developed a way of sensing when people are feeling down or when ever they need someone to give them advice from a gentle hearted person.

"Terk, you know you can tell me anything and I will not judge you, even if it's an embarrassing issue." said Kala kindly.

Terk was starting to feel reassured as she looked up at Kala, knowing she was telling her the truth about what she told her.

"Promise me you won't laugh?" asked Terk blushing.

"I don't laugh at anyone's discomfort, I was raised better than that." said Kala showing she meant it.

Terk looked around before she said anything, she could see no one else around to hear them and she turned to face Kala, taking in a deep breath and letting it out. She began to explain it to Kala about what happened from when they went to the Trading Post to replace some of Professor Archimedes' equipment since one of his experiments had a set back and while at the Trading Post he knew a man there that Tarzan knew, they grew curious about how he knew the man and at first Kenji didn't want to talk about it but with some support from Tantor, he was convinced to them. Terk kept explaining it to Kala as she told her what Kenji told them about how he got to Africa and why he left Japan, she kept going into detail as they wondered how Kenji managed to remain faithful from so much hardship and he told them it was music that comforted him, than it lead him to singing and dancing when a man played the guitar and how it wasn't long till both Kenji and Terk were singing and dancing together but after it was all over, Terk told Kala that she planted a kiss to Kenji's lips without thinking and lead to Kenji fainting and Terk carried him back to the jungle when everyone there had seen what happened. After explaining it to Kala, it seemed that Kala was understanding what was going on but knew that Terk was needing advice.

"So your worried everyone will find out and tease you and Kenji" said Kala as she knew Terk worried about that.

"Yes, I just don't want anyone teasing me or Kenji about this, Kenji's been through enough hardship and we've seen how he's felt when someone bullied him." said Terk as she knew that Kenji doesn't need anyone making life hard for him.

Kala knew that Terk was right but she also knew what Terk was telling her was how she feels about Kenji, as if she was implying that Terk was in love with the young human teenager.

"Terk, do you think maybe you have feelings for Kenji?" said Kala as she guessed the truth.

"Me? Getting into all that mushy stuff you call love, I don't even know the meaning of it." said Terk as she was at first denying it but she was trying to be macho about it.

"Terk, I can tell when your hiding something." said Kala as she knew that she was right.

Terk turned to Kala and her smirk faded away, she was looking like she was caught in a lie.

"Does it show?" asked Terk curiously.

"You've been acting different around Kenji for quite a while." said Kala. "Maybe you can try to tell Kenji how you feel about him, he seems to show he can tell you anything, even if it's something that's bothering him."

"But what if Kenji doesn't like me the way I like him?" asked Terk feeling a bit doubtful.

Terk placed a paw on Kenji's forehead, lightly rubbing his forehead with her big thumb. Kala was watching as she knew that Terk and Kenji's feelings for each other and how they seemed so close to each other so fast was obvious.

"Maybe Kenji feels the same way about you. The two of you seem to have a thing for each other, you have been in love once and that time you have found a way to confess your feelings before." said Kala as she remembered Terk's first love interest.

"I know, but Gubo was showing that he liked me and I knew it." said Terk pointing the difference. "But with Kenji, it's a different story, if I was to tell him how I feel, than I need to let him know when I feel ready or when the time is right."

"I see your right, although, if and when you find the right time to tell him, you shouldn't hold back and show no fear. Besides, your probably not going to find another male like Kenji even if you had a million years, this is love and when two people are in love, it seems as if the whole world is at peace." said Kala as she was giving her the right advice. "But as a tip, try not to lie when you do it, just be yourself."

Terk knew that Kala was right and from what she told her, she knew that every word she said about how the two of them are perfect for one another was correct.

"Okay, but I wonder how I should wake the tike up?" said Terk.

"I do know a way but it's a bit inappropriate." said Kala as she began to blush.

Terk was now looking at Kala and wondered what she had in mind but Kala knew that there was only way to wake up Kenji after he fainted.

"What's inappropriate about it?" asked Terk curiously.

"He may have to be kissed awake." said Kala blushing deeper.

Terk was now blushing at the idea, she knew that kissing Kenji was what made him faint in the first place but kissing him again might wake him up or make things worse.

"Are you sure that's a good idea?" asked Terk a bit nervous.

"Well, Jane has once said that a type of smell can wake someone up when they've fainted, but it's usually something that has a strong scent or a strange one. I know that dung would be a bad idea." said Kala as she remembered from what Jane told her about this situation.

"Alright, but if anyone is going to kiss him, might as well be me." said Terk as she didn't want anyone else kissing Kenji.

Terk turned her attention towards Kenji and pulled him in her big and strong arms, having him sit up, she took a deep breath and puckered up her large and soft lips as she planted a passionate kiss to Kenji's lips. She gave it everything she's got in one kiss as she was starting to feel as if she liked it, she made moans during the kiss. It took a long time before Terk pulled her big and soft lips off him in a loud and wet pop.

"I wonder if that will work?" said Terk hopefully.

They waited for a minute till Kenji let out a breath of air and was breathing in and out. They felt relieved.

"Can someone take me to bed, I need to lay down." said Kenji softly.

"I'll take him to the treehouse." said Terk as she quickly volunteered.

Terk lifted Kenji up and placed him on her back, she made sure she was carrying him the right way so he wouldn't slip and fall off.

"Auntie K, thanks for being cool about this, I'll try doing like you've said but I need to time it right." said Terk as she felt better.

"Always willing to lend a sympathetic ear." said Kala kindly.

Terk carried Kenji towards the treehouse so Kenji could lay down for a bit. Terk knew that following Kala's advice was a good idea but she knew that she wanted to tell Kenji her feelings for him when she was ready. Although Kala knew she would explain to Tarzan, Jane, Professor Archimedes and Tantor that they need to treat the situation with understanding and compassion since Terk doesn't want anyone teasing them. As Terk was taking Kenji to the treehouse, a smile formed on Kenji's face.
