I stood in front of my bathroom mirror. The shower was nice, it always had good pressure and it was very hot. On this cold day the hot water felt good. It was mentally cleansing. I had spent the shower thinking about this trip and everything that has happened. I started to think about how and even if I needed to some how bring my three brothers together and just talk out what was going on. But by the end of the shower I knew that wasn't the right thing. Not for me atleast. I don't know how to talk to people. I realized more than ever the truth about myself.
"I am a zero," I said to myself as I looked in the mirror. I was wearing my black push up bra and matching black panties. I had shaved my legs, my armpits and my pussy (as best as I could). I felt clean. But more accurately I felt blank. I was tired. Not physically tired. I was mentally tired. My mind was always going, analyzing, counting and trying to understand. What was the right way to talk about this? What was the right way to act?
Even now, with all the freedom I was feeling with my brothers I still felt like I wasn't doing it quite right. More than that, I felt like I wasn't talking about it correctly. I just didn't know how to.
I looked at myself in the mirror. I knew the problem. I could see it. I didn't know how to articulate it. But I needed to. Not to anyone but myself.
"I...I am a zero," I said again leaning forward on the sink and looking into my reflection. My tits hung down in front of me presenting their cleavage. I thought about the restaurant and being called a "Big-titted bitch" and disrespected by those men or my manager Kent and how he did the opposite and treated me with such respect.
Kent would always tell me, "Katie, you are so smart. What would I do without you to help me close?"
I looked at my tits and realized I had caught Kent looking at my tits all the time too. He said he respected me. But I don't think he did. Not really. My tits always got in the way of respect.
I stood up slowly and frowned. No that wasn't it. It was actually the opposite. Respect got in the way of my tits. That felt good to think about. Respect carried this pressure. This understanding that I was something more than what people saw. It carried this pressure to preform and to be something more. Respect expected more.
"Respect means there is more than meets the eye," I said in a whisper as I looked back at myself. "But I am not more. Not really. I am less. I am less than."
I smiled at the statement. I had been told to be confident, sure of myself and sure of my worth. I remember one of my female teachers gave us a talk about the value and importance of being a woman in this day and age. I didn't understand her. I knew what she was saying but I didn't relate to her. Certainly not her passion and also all I felt from her was pressure.
I was tired of the pressure. For these past few days I wasn't feeling the pressure I normally felt. I felt free. Or what I supposed was freedom. I am not sure any of us know true freedom. We only know what people tell us and what expectations are and then we are told we need to fit into that definition. I didn't fit into any definition. Not any of their definitions at least. I knew what I was.
"I don't want pressure," I said to my reflection. "I don't want respect. I don't want to be expected to make choices and to make my path in life. I can't. That's not what I am." I paused for a moment. A feeling of warm clarity washed over me as I looked at myself in my underwear. "A zero doesn't have pressure to be anything more than what it is. I am a zero." I opened my mouth and just looked.
Prior to my shower David had visited me in the early morning. I was asleep and on my back when he came in. I woke up with him straddling my chest and he pushed his erect dick into my mouth. He didn't wait for me to be fully awake. He didn't wait for my permission or my invitation. He just did what he wanted and/or needed to do. My elder brother proceeded to fuck my mouth until he came. He grunted and groaned and then shot his load into my mouth like I was a glove or cum sock or some other kind of sex toy. He was not rough but he was not gentle or considerate and most of all he was not respectful. He was not hateful or mean and he didn't say anything when he was done. Our eyes just met as he pulled his spent dick out of my mouth and I swallowed everything he gave me. He got off of me and left without a word.
I felt used. In the purest sense of the word. I imagined my brother was just walking by my room and on a whim, instead of masturbating he came in my room and came in my mouth. Then, when he was satisfied, he left.
