Mom, Aunt Clara & My Wandering Mind: Part 7
# # # # #
My trip to the grocery store with Miss Swenson had me worked up. Not only had she teased me with her gorgeous body in her skimpy athletic wear, but she also kept making lewd and suggestive comments in the produce section. Indecent comments while holding a cucumber, obviously pretending it was a huge hard penis. RisquΓ© wisecracks about tomatoes and grapefruit and melons, all overt stand-ins for a woman's breasts.
I tried to quiet her down, but the more insistent I tried to sound the more brazen she became. And when I started sporting an erection in my thin, old running shorts that were already doing a poor job hiding my junk, well, she had a field day with that.
Before we'd even left the produce aisle, I was tenting my shorts and making a show to the other shoppers, all middle-aged women doing their mid-week, mid-morning shopping.
When we got to a regular aisle, Miss Swenson took things even further and, before I even knew it, I was putting on a near-pornographic show to several ladies who by then had made a point of following us around.
To say I was glad to be leaving the grocery would be an understatement. I was grateful things hadn't escalated any further or I would have creamed my shorts and who knows what Miss Swenson might have done then!
The kicker, though, was our last stop in the store, to the pharmacy, where she picked up a prescription for birth control for Nadia, which Miss Swenson then made clear was with
me
in mind. And now we were going to visit Nadia, to surprise her at work.
"Do you need some relief before we go in?" Miss Swenson asked, looking down at my shorts.
Thankfully, my arousal level from the grocery store visit had waned and I was once again comfortable with the state of my manhood.
"No, I'm fine, Miss Swenson," I said nervously, "But have you decided how we're going to surprise Nadia yet?"
"Mm-hmm," she replied without offering any further details.
"Care to clue me in?" I asked.
"Wow, Andy. Look at you! You're becoming so confident all of the sudden! No stammering and being assertive. Good for you!"
I enjoyed the compliment, perhaps a little too much since I hopped out of the minivan without waiting to see if she was going to divulge any more information about what we'd be doing.
I'm sure she didn't mind not having to explain anything, but as we were about to enter the mall, I remembered what I'd asked and more importantly that Miss Swenson hadn't answered. "Hey! I asked you to clue me in and you avoided the question!"
She laughed. "I wondered if you were going to notice."
"So? Can you give me some idea what we're doing? Are we really just saying hi?" I could only hope it would be something as simple as that, though I suspected it wouldn't be.
"Oh, you're so cute. But no, we're not just going to say Hi. Trust me, though. It'll be more fun if you just go with it."
Suddenly I became overwhelmingly nervous.
Is she going to continue what she started at the grocery? This time, in front of Nadia? Oh, Gawd, I wish I had disappearing powers.
"Andy...
Andy
!"
I broke from my thoughts and realized Miss Swenson was holding the door open, waiting for me to follow her in.
I hadn't been to the mall since middle school--never really had any reason to--so I was slow to keep up, constantly getting distracted by bookstores, the food court, and kiosks selling the same junk I'd seen on late-night infomercials.
Growing tired of hounding me, Miss Swenson finally took my hand and dragged me along next to her like I was a child, making sure she didn't lose me.
We entered the Fashion Planet hand in hand. Since Miss Swenson had been there before, she knew exactly where to go--which meandering pathways to avoid and which shortcuts to take.
It wasn't until I saw Nadia, standing behind a cash register and looking so elegant and grown-up that I realized how childish I looked by comparison, holding Miss Swenson's hand.
I yanked my hand free and instantly fell a couple of paces behind Miss Swenson before she stopped and turned back.
"Something wrong, Andy?" she asked.
"No... I just... I don't want her to see me holding your hand," I voiced my concern. "It makes me feel like a little kid."
"Ah, I see... Well, I suppose I should be glad you're showing some self-confidence. I did like holding your hand, but I can see why you wouldn't want to."
"I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings, Miss Swenson," I said sincerely.
"I won't give you a correction for that, since I know you meant it. And I understand you not wanting to hold hands with another woman in front of your secret love interest. She might think I'm a threat, am I right?"
"Um, sure," I muttered. If that's what she needed to think was the reason, so be it.
"Ugh. I'll forgive that one, too, but no more, Andy. No more 'um's and no more stammering, okay? You want to act confident, then do it right. I'd rather you speak a little slower than stutter or say 'sorry' or 'um' all the time. Got it? Can you do that?"
"I'll try."
"Okay, then. Let's just have us a little test then and see how well you've been progressing. I'm sure your Aunt Clara will be interested in the results. Let's go say 'Hi!'"
"Wait! A test?"
"Maybe not the best word, huh? Let's call them challenges instead. Or, better yet, missions."
"Oh, okay," I nodded, having no idea what I was even agreeing with.
"Mom?
Mom, what are you doing here
? I'll get in trouble if I'm not working!" Nadia said angrily under her breath as we approached her sales counter, nodding subtly to her right. Next to her, looking as disinterested as a pre-teen at the opera, a prissy young woman about the same age as Nadia leaned against the counter and seemed more inclined to stare at her fingernails than work. Nadia still hadn't even noticed me standing behind Miss Swenson yet.
"Why, we just came by to say hello," her mom defended, acting hurt that Nadia wouldn't want to see her.
"We? Who's
we
?" Nadia asked, then tilted her upper body to the side so she could see around her mom.
"Hey," I waved timidly, "Not trying to get you in trouble, you know?"
"Andy?!" Nadia nearly squealed and ran from behind the counter, throwing her arms around me, and completely forgetting that she might get herself in trouble. "Oh my God, I've missed you so much! What have you been up to all week? We haven't even connected on chat at night. You know how much I love that! Why are you here with Mom? And what have you two been doing? Mom said she was helping your Mom and Aunt with some therapy or something? Is it helping? Is it scary? Do you have a job yet? What about school? Have you heard back from State? I hope you can go there with me!"
"Whoa! Hey! Slow down, Nadia," Miss Swenson interrupted her daughter's boundless litany of questions without taking a breath. "First of all, I see how
I
rate," she joked.
