Silence wasn't always common in the Freeland household, even less so around the dinner table. But for the moment, the two sisters and their mother sat without a word between them. The clinking of silverware and plates had taken over, and each of the present family members enjoyed, or at least tried to enjoy their mothers spaghetti. Rather than sit in silence, the girls mother spoke up
"Have you decided what you're going to do for senior skip day, Jessica?"
Jessica finished chewing before answering "No. Not really. I might just hang around here."
"Well that's not really fun. What about going for a hike? Or I could take you for a day trip somewhere?"
"Maybe. Honestly, I was probably going to call [friends name] and we'd hang around the mall or here or something."
"Still doesn't seem like fun."
"What should we do? We have school the next day."
Her mother shrugged, then bent forward to take another bite. Amanda asked
"Well if Jessica is getting the day off and just hanging around, can I get the day off too?"
"No. You're going to school."
"Ugh. C'mon mom!"
"You'll be a senior soon too. You can have the day off then."
Amanda went back to twirling her spaghetti, mumbling to herself.
Without anything else to grab their attention, the family returned to silence, with most of the trio wrapping up their meals. Just then, the distinctive ringtone of their mother's phone sounded from the kitchen counter, which was close to the dining table. The girl's mother got up to answer it, picking up when she saw that it was her husband. Staying in the kitchen, her daughters were aware of the conversation.
"Hey honey! How's your trip?"
The girls could hear the excited response of their father on the other end of the line. Their mother responded
"That's great! See, I told you that you should have gone, congratulations on the award sweetie!"
Jessica and her sister had finished their dinners, and Jessica instinctively begun to clear the table, carrying each plate and glass in her hands as best as she could. She walked around her chatting mother as she gathered up the pots and pans and put them in the sink. She poured liquid soap on each of the dishes and started the tap. As the sound of running water filled the kitchen of the small ranch house, only Amanda noticed their mothers reaction. But they all heard her words.
"No, Jessica was just starting the dishes." She laughed nervously "Honey, you know I'll only do that for you if you're good. No, I can't talk like that, the girls are right here."
Both Jessica and Amanda looked at each other. Amanda raised an eyebrow, and Jessica giggled. As their mother moved away from the kitchen, Jessica finished up with the brief chore of washing the dishes. It was good timing too, as she felt the familiar twinge of a bladder that was due to release its contents. Her sister had left for her room, and Jessica followed close behind. Their house had just one hallway that connected the bedrooms from the kitchen and living room. Along the narrow hallway sat the only bathroom in the house. Sandwiched between the dining room and the spare bedroom, it was a small, compact area.
As Jessica opened the thin wooden door and flicked on the light, the almost yellow color of the old tile hit her eyes. They adjusted quickly while Jessica shut the door behind her. Nonchalantly, she walked over to the toilet, which was nestled between the counter and the window. In one quick motion, her athletic shorts were on the floor, and her eighteen year old butt on the toilet seat.
With her forearms resting on her thin thighs, the room was soon filled with the sound of Jessica's fresh pee slipping past her labia and dripping into the toilet water. Quickly the dripping sound of her urine splashing into the toilet was replaced with the the constant splatter as it started to rush out of her young snatch. As Jessica peed, she looked out the window, not at anything in particular, but it helped pass the few seconds it was going to take to relieve herself. The sound of the splashing water in the toilet bowl reverberated off of the walls of the small bathroom. Below her, the water itself started to adopt a yellowish hue as Jessica's pee added to the liquid already in the bowl.
Soon, her steady flow of urine began to arc back towards her pussy, wetting her lips with the excess flow. In a moment, Jessica was done. Grabbing a few squares of toilet paper for herself, she made sure she was dry. In one motion Jessica stood and pulled her athletic shorts back up along with her panties. In another motion, she flushed, clearing the discolored water from the toilet.
Jessica turned her attention to the mirror. Without many thoughts running through her mind, she began removing her makeup for the night. Dabbing the brush against her face and utilizing the necessary tools was a second nature at this point. Part of her relished in the solace. Not that her family was noisy, but there were usually four of them. So Jessica took her private opportunities where she could.
Her sanctuary was quickly dashed by a sudden knock on the door. A light tap, Jessica heard her mother on the other side.
"Sweetheart, your father found something for you tomorrow. Work gave him a few tickets to a baseball game, and he can't make it. I thought I'd take you and Aubrey for senior day."
"Oh." Jessica thought about it for a second "Yeah! That sounds great! Could we go to the mall too? Make a whole day out of it?"
Her mother thought about it. "Sure. You know what? I'm meeting Jen for lunch, why don't I drop you and Aubrey off at the mall, then come back and pick you two up?"
"Sounds like a plan. Thanks Mom!"
"Oh and Honey?" There was a pause "Are you going to be done soon? 'Cuz mom really needs a pee right now."
"Um...maybe like fifteen minutes?"
"Your sister's out here too."
"I'm almost done."
"Now Jessica." Her mother spoke with some force
Sighing, Jessica dropped her makeup removing tools and opened the door, her mother's figure taking up most of the door frame. Surprisingly, she had both her hands hovering near the crotch of her khaki pants.
Her mother pushed past her and closed the door as Jessica left the only bathroom in the house. Her sister was standing against the wall with her arms folded, a disappointed look on her face.
"She always does this."
"Who, mom?" Jessica asked
"Yeah-" Suddenly Amanda was interrupted by a loud splattering sound.
Instantly, both sisters were acutely aware that they could hear their Mother peeing on the on the other side of the light door. It was accompanied by a sigh that was as loud as the noise of her urine spraying both into the toilet water and against the insides of the bowl. The two could also hear a faint hiss, but didn't want to acknowledge where it was coming from. Amanda continued her thought as the sound of their Mother peeing echoed behind them
"I mean, I was standing out here waiting for you, and she just walks up after her conversation with dad and cuts right in front of me."
"She must have needed to go that bad." Jessica paused, letting the sound of her mother's spraying urine accent her point
"Would it have killed her to wait? Or not hold it until she's about to piss herself?"
Before Jessica could respond, the sound of her mother's stream ending it's journey out of her became apparent. It was quickly replaced with the sound of her scolding voice
"Because Amanda, I had to work today, run errands, and cook dinner for the two of you." They could hear her unrolling the toilet paper from its place in the bathroom "Mom's a big girl, she can hold her pee, but we all have limits."
"You'll be fine Mom. You can wait like two seconds, its not gonna hurt you."
They could hear the toilet flushing, and soon their mother opened the door.
"Don't argue with me. Here." She opened the door for Amanda, who said nothing as she too entered the bathroom.
Rather than stand in the hall and listen to another family member pee, Jessica headed for her shared room, excited to call her friend and plan their day tomorrow.
