Author's Note: Thank you all very much for your kind words on this series. I'm glad you enjoy the work, thrilled that I am pleasing so many of you.
I've decided to try something and I hope you will all indulge me. I'm going to leave this series "open-ended". If you're not sure what I mean by that, it's like a TV show or a soap opera or even comic books. I will continue to tell stories of Tom and his lovers as long as I can think of them. I already have a few plotted.
You will continue to see new characters introduced in the series and watch them weave their way into the tapestry of our story. I'd love to hear from the readers if they have any suggestions. I can assure you, the story of Carla, Addie and Tom can go on for a while. They're going to age. They're going to get older. Not everything will be smooth sailing, although I assure you, I want them happy and together.
I hope my devoted readers will continue to read along and enjoy the next several chapters. This story will end when I want it to end. Until then, please enjoy the ride.

Tom distinctly heard Carla talking to someone on the phone, but he couldn't hear the conversation clearly. He was being distracted by the soft, supple lips that were sucking avidly on his cock. It was only 11 AM on a Sunday morning and already Carla and Addie wanted to fuck. He wasn't ever dumb enough to refuse them, unless he just
couldn't
. Of course, if that happened, his two beautiful bedmates would just roll into each other's arms and start kissing and caressing each other. That usually provided Tom with enough "inspiration" to get going all over again. Even if it didn't, Carla and Addie were quite happy making love to each other for the pure, simple joy and closeness of it. Mother and daughter shared a bond and Tom was thrilled that both trusted him enough to let him be a part of their world. He had loved Carla for as long as he could remember and now Addie was a part of that love. Others might judge, but they were wrong. It worked -
they
worked.
"You're doing it again, Tommy," Addie sighed, lifting her mouth from his cock. She licked her full red lips and again commanded his full attention. She ruffled his sandy hair and told him to get his head in the game.
Tom nodded. "I was just wondering who was on the phone and then my mind drifted off for a sec," he said. "Sorry." At that moment, Carla entered the room. She was wearing a tiny pink teddy and her bedroom slippers. The kitchen's tile floor could be chilly in the mornings.
"You'll never guess who was on the phone," Carla smiled as she got into bed with her family.
"I don't know – my mom, wondering when you're going to make an honest man out of me?" Tom chuckled. He wasn't serious, but Marie Porter would have been thrilled to hear Tom finally announce their engagement.
"No, that call usually comes around 4 PM," Carla zinged him back. "That was Jayne."
Jayne Kingston was their realtor and was helping Carla and Addie sell their home. She was to selling properties what Carla was to selling cars. The house had only been on the market a month and they'd already had several offers. Sadly, they weren't quite good enough.
Addie smiled a private little smile and looked at her daughter. She was privy to a little secret that Tommy wasn't, not as yet. The beautiful black woman had been Carla's first girlfriend, Carla had confessed. They had known each other since high school. Jayne also had a huge crush on Tommy, but he was oblivious to it. "He could have any girl in our school he wants to date mommy, but he's so stuck on that rotten Beth Turner," the 16-year old Carla had complained. "Jayne's got that body and those legs and she's made it clear she's interested, but he doesn't even notice."
"Give him time, sweetheart," Addie had counseled her daughter. "Men always want what they can't have. You and Jayne will have your own set of admirers soon enough and I have a feeling that someday, Tommy's blinders will come off." And so they had, but not before Jayne and Carla had their first encounter after graduation. They remained close friends and still had a little fun every so often. Now Addie was aware of all of this, being her daughter's closest confidante and lover. Her body trembled as she thought of dark, exotic Jayne and Carla together in bed. Next time, did she dare ask to be invited?
"So, what did Jayne want?" Addie asked her daughter, allowing her to slip in between herself and Tom.
"Our money problems may be over," Carla said enthusiastically.
"I wasn't aware we had any," Tom said with a sarcastic tone. After all, Carla was the top salesperson and he owned 75% of the dealership.
"Maybe YOU don't Tommy," the women teased him. Adeline wanted to hear the rest. "Go on, sweetheart," she said to Carla.
"All Jayne would tell me is that she's fairly certain she's sold the house for the asking price," Carla said excitedly. "If that's the case, we can pay off the mortgage on Tommy's place and cut our bill payments in half."
"Oh,
those
money problems," Tom chuckled. Secretly, he was thrilled. He had offered to help Carla and Addie out several times, but they wanted to pull their own weight. He really didn't understand why they were being so stubborn, but if the house was finally sold, the point was moot. He didn't need the money, mortgage rates were very low right now or he would have paid off the condo a while back and been done with it.
"Why is everyone still in bed?" Carla teased.
"Umm, weren't we all about to have sex?" Tom asked.
"Oh no, we don't have time," Carla continued her little game. "We have to go and meet Jayne and the potential buyer at 2 PM."
Tom looked over at his clock. "Woman, that's almost 3 hours from now. I bet I can make the both of you cum twice by then."
Tom won that bet.
After the three of them showered and even had one more orgasm apiece, they made it to Addie's old home with time to spare. It felt a bit odd for her and Carla not to be living there, but there was a good future ahead for all of them. A few minutes later, Jayne's car pulled up and she got out.
Tom blinked and realized that Carla's constant teasing about him sometimes being obtuse might have been on the money.
This
was the woman he hadn't noticed all those years ago? How could he not? She was tall and elegant and carried herself beautifully. Her skin was the color of chocolate and she had beautiful features with brown eyes that held your attention. She was graceful and her voice was melodic, almost lyrical. Jayne's face wore a beautiful smile and even though she was dressed in a professional manner, her blouse and skirt showed a truly lovely body. Even her jewelry was chosen with care, the gold against her dark skin was quite nice. She was chatting amiably with Carla and Addie and he came out of his head again to go and say hello.
"Tommy," she said hugging him hello. "It's been a while."
He nodded, not really knowing what to say. He felt like an imbecile. Carla had told him that her friend had practically thrown herself at him and instead, he'd gone after Betsy? Had he been insane back then?
"I think the buyers are ready to sign the papers today," Jayne smiled. Tom still couldn't take his eyes off of her, she looked like a supermodel. "They want to move here as soon as possible, so if everyone's agreeable, we can wrap this up tonight."
"So, who are these buyers?" Carla asked excitedly.
"That would be us."
Carla turned around at the sound of the familiar voice and squealed and ran into the older of the two women's arms. "Aunt Irena, cousin Cherie! What are you two doing here?"
Tom recognized his girlfriend's aunt and cousin; he had met them a few times over the years. Irena Bennett was married to the brother of Adeline's ex. As much as Tom though Addie's ex-husband was a brute, Alex Bennett was a dullard. Tom's opinion of the Bennett men was not a high one.
Irena gave her niece a hug and then hugged Addie while the cousins laughed and hugged as well. Addie had always liked Irena, they were kindred spirits. "After you finally got up the courage to divorce Alex's brother, I began looking at my own marriage. I decided to change my life, so I went back to school, got my degree and I've been working as a law clerk for the past two years. I'm finally making enough money to live on my own so I packed my bags, had Alex served with papers and here I am. He won't fight it – I have enough legal information to bury the bastard, including the fact he's had two affairs."
Addie indicated that Cherie was with in earshot. "Oh darling, don't worry about her, she's smart as a whip, that one. She knew before I did."
