Mother's Little Twin
Dear readers of Literotica Forums,
I suppose that we all have our secrets that we'd rather keep hidden forever. My secret would be just as embarrassing as anyone else's, were it to be made public and associated with my name. I am a married woman with two children, and also a professional. I've been keeping this secret hidden for so long, however. Since others in these forums have seen fit to tell of their own, shall we say, unexpected encounters with members of their own family, I feel it is high time for me to say my piece and get this heavy burden off my chest.
This took place in the late 1980s, after I graduated from high school but before I moved away from my parents' house and went to college. I was eighteen years of age, still unsure of what field I should pursue. I hadn't even applied for my first job, as I was very, very shy back then.
I remember being a little taller than most women my age, with breasts only the size of apples, which hadn't yet ripened into what they are now. My waist and hips were narrow, as I've always been of slim form, and my thighs were and have always been what I call 'fleshy.' My figure was very similar to that of my mother's. My father sometimes jokingly referred to me as my mother's little twin.
I did somehow manage to nab a boyfriend, but he was as hesitant and shy as I was. We were both so awkward when we first met. We continued in that same way all through our relationship. This young man would be afraid to kiss me in public and hardly ever held my hand. When he made love to me, he was just as timid. It felt as if some religious laws were being broken because we were, in his word, fornicating. We made quite the couple, with me so shy and him so nervous. I often fantasized of some muscular brute, such as those seen on the covers of romance novels, stepping into my life and taking me with real ardor and passion.
My father worked at a tuna factory, where tuna was shredded into bits in great machines, and stuffed into tiny tins that were then distributed all over the state. He'd worked there for many years, fixing the machines on the assembly line. He made good money. At the time this took place, my father was in his late thirties. He worked the late second shift at his job. That is, he clocked in at 4, 5 or 6 in the afternoon, and he clocked out sometime past midnight, depending on his schedule.
He was very angry when, shortly after I graduated from high school, my mother decided that she was going to find a job. In those days, in the part of town where we lived, it was seen as a failure for a man's wife to work. A man was fully responsible for keeping a roof over his family's head and for paying the bills on time. It embarrassed him greatly when his friends and neighbors would comment over my mother working. Her stubborn decision would lead to many arguments between my father and my mother.
It was always a mystery as to why my mother decided to find a job in the first place. My family wasn't wealthy, by any means, but we weren't lacking, either. The best I can guess is that after 18 years of raising me, and with no other child to worry about, my mother became bored and wanted to try something else. At any rate, she worked at a bakery, where she would prepare dough and put it into ovens, Her schedule had her going off to work very early in the morning. She would leave at 3 or 4 sometimes, but when the arguments between her and my father worsened, she started leaving even earlier. Often, my mother would be gone by the time my father got home. Although my father could never prove it, he always suspected that she was cheating on him.
When she was home, my mother took to sleeping on the couch in the living room, just so she could avoid my father and his bad temper. My father would come home from work, see her there and wake her up for another ruckus, even in the middle of the night. Afterward he would storm off into the bedroom. After a time, they both tired of the constant fighting. My father would come into the house, lock up after himself, and skulk off into the bedroom to spend the night alone. All without turning on a light in the living room and waking my mother.
My biggest mistake took place one night while I was talking to my boyfriend on the telephone. I was in the living room and had the TV on, and we talked and talked as young lovers tend to. My mother went off to work, early enough that my father hadn't yet gotten home. I tried to convince my boyfriend to come over and pay me a visit, but he was a hard catch. He did tease me by saying that he might show up, right before we said our goodbyes and hung up. I found myself still sitting on the living room couch and waiting for him, instead of heading off to bed like I should have.
You see, back in those days, the phones we used had these short cords on them that always bunched up in the wrong places. I didn't have a phone in my room, and so I was waiting for my boyfriend to call me back. Although he never called back that night, I still held out hope that he would. After waiting so long, I shut off the TV and lay back on the couch. I suppose I only intended to take a short nap, and planned to head to my bedroom later. As it turned out I stayed on the couch, and as I said before, much longer than I should have.
My father carpooled, and on this particular night, his friends from work stopped off at a bar. Although my father was never anything like a heavy drinker, he must have had enough alcohol in his system to cause him some impairment. He came up the walk as he usually did, and by using the light from the porch, he unlocked the front door. As had become his habit, he did not turn on any lights in the living room. Had he followed his normal routine, my father would have walked through the living room in the dark and gone off to bed.
For whatever reason, he didn't do that on this night. The porch light shining through the front door showed him a portion of the living room, enough to reveal to him that the couch was occupied. He must have assumed that my mother was sleeping there. As he closed and locked the front door, I can only imagine what thoughts were going through his head. Perhaps one of his friends had commented about my mother working, and this had angered him. Perhaps he'd seen some woman at the bar that he found attractive, and this had stirred up some desire in him for my mother. I don't know what he was thinking; I was simply sleeping on the couch.
I remember him talking out loud and waking me. I didn't catch any of it. All I knew was that my father had come home because I recognized his voice. I didn't even get a chance to fully wake up, before I felt my legs being pulled and my body being dragged off the couch. I ended up with my face and chest in the cushions. I wasn't wearing much, just a long tee shirt and panties. Before I could even blink I felt the first being yanked up around my back, and the second being pulled down to my knees.
I was scared, and I did what I always do when I get scared; I froze. I had my butt out in the open and my first impression was that my father was about to spank me for sleeping on the couch.
Just imagine how surprised I was, when I felt my father's hand prodding around behind me, rubbing along my sex until I started getting aroused. I was 18! It hardly took anything at all for my boyfriend to get me excited, as he could rub on me while I still had my clothes on and do it. Then my father did something that my boyfriend had never done, when he pushed two of his fingers into me. He made me gasp. I don't know whether or not I sounded like my mother when she gasped, but I don't think I ever stopped.
