I was in the parking lot behind the office, unhooking the trailer, when my phone went off. I tapped the Bluetooth earpiece. "Harris Trucking, how may I help you?"
"My driver just walked out on me, and I have to get this truck back to my studio."
I hadn't heard from my mother in over two months. She's a sculptor, and a successful one, whose creations adorn the public squares of over ten cities and twelve entertainment venues. She lives in seclusion two states away, in the northern plains, to inspire her art. Proud and self-reliant, she never calls asking for help. Never say never, I suppose, but I knew right away she was in a tight corner.
"What do you need me to do, Mom?"
There was a pause in the connection. "' Mother,' not 'Mom,' remember? I need you to drive this truck back to the studio. It's been loaded by the team, and it's in a fenced lot, but I have no driver, and I'm not taking a chance on a new one. When can you be here?"
I shook my head. That was my mother. She sort of raised my twin sister and me alone; she never shared the identity of my father. To put it diplomatically, she would never be featured as a character in a Hallmark movie. A driven artist on her way up in an impossible industry, she'd never been warm and loving. That's not to say she'd been cruel. There'd been love there; it had just been very reserved.
"Text me a pin."
I didn't bother trying to reason with her because I already knew how it would end. She was Marcy McBride, renowned sculptor; she was also my mother. I couldn't tell you which of those two details made her feel more entitled to my unquestioning acquiescence, but it was surely both, and she surely did.
My phone pinged with her text on her location. I checked my maps.
Wow, not a drivable distance
.
"Okay, I'll book a flight and text you my arrival time."

My wife, Barb, laughed and said, "Of course you can go; nobody says no to Marcy McBride."
She was standing in our large bathroom, naked, just out of the shower. She's petite, with long, red hair and brown, nearly black eyes. Her breasts, though not large, are perfectly shaped, and her nipples, right then, were long and hard. She caught me looking.
"You may be away a few days. When's your flight?"
"Not till four."
Barb pressed her body against mine. "Take a shower; I'll get the room ready."
I washed in record time, dried off quickly, and stepped into our bedroom. The sun poured through the large windows, bathing the room in midday light. Barb was on the bed, on her back, naked, with her perfect round ass up on two pillows and a towel under her. She was sliding a large dildo in and out of her trimmed pussy. When you marry a redhead, pussy shaving is forbidden.
The video of our last get-together with Jack and Alyssa played on the sixty-inch flat screen. My penis, already half-hard from thinking about fucking my wife, sprang up as I watched Barb masturbate on our bed, and, on the screen, I watched myself fucking Alyssa while Barb lay under us, licking Alyssa's pussy and my cock while Jack fucked her. Barb nudged me with her foot as she tossed the dildo on the floor. "Let's go, Bob."
I crawled up between her legs and filled my nose with her lusty scent. "I love you so fucking much, Barb."
She held my head in her hands. "I know, baby, but show me. Eat me; fuck me."
I pushed my tongue deep inside Barb's vagina. Her fingers clenched my scalp. Barb isn't vocal -- more visceral. She growled and yelped when I sucked on her extended clit. The video of the four of us ran in the background. Just hearing it allowed me to visualize the action.
Barb exhaled deeply as she climaxed in my mouth. She lifted my head. "Fuck me, baby. I need you in me."
I moved up and over her. Barb pointed to the TV. "Oh, this is where Jack fucked me in the ass." Her eyes came back to me as I pushed my cock into her wetness. "Oh, fucking yes. So good."
I had to make a flight, so I couldn't enjoy marathon sex with my wife. Barb slipped her hand between us and rubbed her clit. "Go for it. I'll meet you there."
Barb and I are gym enthusiasts, and she has mastered control of her Kegels, a skill she called upon to help me get off quickly. It worked. In five minutes, I felt the tide of my climax cresting, and with a satisfied grunt, I orgasmed as Barb shook under me, her finger and my cock bringing her climax.
I leaned back and gazed at my wife. She lay watching me watch her. Her vagina was still open, a trail of our mixed love running out and down to the towel under her. She ran her finger up through her lips and then to her mouth, sucking it loudly. My penis twitched.
She pointed at my cock. "You've always had a quick reload."
I looked down. "Yeah, I guess I'm just lucky."
"Not as lucky as I am. Go wash before I put that in my mouth; you need to get to the airport."
Barb glanced at the TV where the four of us were in our huge shower. "Now that's the way to bathe."

The Uber dropped me off at the open gate of a large truck storage yard in Sioux City, Iowa. Mom was standing in front of an eighteen-foot yellow box truck, arms crossed, looking at her watch. She was in her usual outfit: worn-out baggy Carhartt pants and an oversized, tired, chambray shirt, topped off with a faded Caterpillar baseball cap -- a gift from me. I picked up my small duffle and walked over.
"Was the plane delayed?" she asked.
I replied as I walked around the truck. "Mother, I know you refuse to fly, and your impatience always thinks it goes faster than it does. It was not."
"Can we get going?"
I unlatched the doors to the cargo box. "I also know your show schedule, Mother; I looked it up. You do not have a show for another three months. I've been driving and owning trucks since I was eighteen. I always check the load."
"I've been watching this truck for a day. I'm exhausted and want to return to my studio."
I closed, latched, and locked the cargo box. Mom stood at the back corner of the truck. It was July in Iowa, and Mom's shirt was dark in the areas where her perspiration had soaked through. Her rich chestnut hair, which fell halfway down her back, had acquired a streak of grey. I thought it looked good, but kept it to myself. I walked past her and opened the cab.
"Let's go. It'll take about nine hours to get you back to Montana. We'll go as far as we can tonight and finish up tomorrow -- unless you want me to pull out my transmogrifier and get us there now, but you know what that does to our continuum."
