Everything starts with good intentions, which is how I found myself stranded by the road with a broken Chevy pickup thirty miles west of Lincoln, Nebraska. I had flown into Chicago three days before to attend my brother's second wedding. I had also arranged to buy his old pickup and drive it back home to Oregon as part of the trip - but the truck had other plans.
It was hot, clearly too hot for the radiator. I should have grabbed some water jugs, damn fool that I am. A relentless muggy heat emanated from the pavement, with an occasional car rushing by. The linear highway cut across great swaths of corn that covered the flat lands on either side, a sameness that surrounded me and began to make me anxious.
I wolfed down a granola bar, drained what was left of the cola I'd bought in Lincoln, and then decided to lock the truck up and walk a bit. I was pretty sure nobody driving by was going to stop anytime soon. If there was any kind of cell service, I had no one to call anyway.
I decided to keep heading West, truck or not. I skirted alongside the highway, mindful of the traffic that roared by, seemingly oblivious. About half a mile into my walk, I came across a dirt road with a beaten-up, rusted mailbox hanging from a bent post. The dirt path proceeded back about two hundred yards, passing two ramshackle sheds on the left and a barn on the right, before ending up in front of a rustic worn farmhouse that had clearly seen many moons.
There didn't appear to be anyone home, and no vehicles were parked anywhere in sight. I walked down the driveway slowly, trying to look friendly just in case someone was watching me with a shotgun - I'm paranoid like that. Just the same, I decided to take a chance, maybe find a hose. It could be an excellent way to get shot, but the heat wasn't helping me think like a rational man.
There was a rustle from within the barn, so I paused, then called out a tentative hello. After a moment, a young woman appeared from the back of the barn, slowly approaching me. She was no more than twenty-two but had hips that indicated she had already born at least one child. I wondered if she had ever had a moment between losing her baby fat and gaining it back from motherhood.
That isn't to say she was broken-looking, though. Her face was youthful, with sweet lips and a hint of mischief in her eyes. She brushed her hair back, and I took the opportunity to grab a quick view of her tits, clearly engorged and ballooning outward her top, the top ridge of a padded bra poking up above the neckline of her pale yellow v-necked t-shirt. Motherhood had accentuated her ass and thighs, her shapely curves constrained by a worn pair of jeans.
"Can I help you?" She kept her distance but softened as she sensed I wasn't dangerous.
"My car broke down the road a bit, and I was hoping to get something to cart up a gallon or two of water. I think it might have just overheated. It's damn hot out here."
She looked at me a moment more. I did my best to keep eye contact, but we both knew I was scanning her breasts every chance I got. She didn't seem to mind much, though.
"Ok, I've got to finish up with Lucille. I've got a couple of jugs you can have. Sorry, I can't drive you back; my mother-in-law has Emily with her this morning, showing her off again. My husband is out of town with the truck this week."
"No problem. I'm really grateful you can help me out. I don't know how you can manage this heat."
"Yeah, I can tell you aren't from around here." She sized me up a bit. "You look like you live in the West."
"What gave it away? My drawl?"
"Yeah, you talk strange. Also, your hands look rough differently, maybe more ranch than the farm." She turned to go back into the barn. As she didn't indicate I should stay, I began to follow her. Keeping my distance, I surreptitiously watched the sway of her thighs as she walked into the barn. I felt my cock wake up a bit as I briefly imagined her ass bent over, her jeans and panties pulled down to her knees; what a sight that would be.
It took me a minute for my eyes to adjust to the darkness within the barn after the sun's relentless glare. Towards the back was a small corral built into the corner, with a large white cow standing lethargically inside, a lazy gaze turned towards me.
"There's Lucille. Gotta take care of her before she bursts." The woman glanced at me and smiled quickly before glancing down at her bosom. "Grandma better get home soon with Emily before I burst too."
"Is she your first child?"
"Yes, it's all pretty new to me. I didn't think I'd grow up to be on a farm, to be honest."
"Oh, this isn't your family farm?"
"No, it's my husband's parent's place. I grew up in Lincoln and started Uni there, but I met Johnny there when I was a sophomore, and.." She trailed off. "Anyways, I've learned a lot, but I still get nervous around hoofs."
She grabbed a small folding chair leaning against the corral rail and a large galvanized metal pail. I watched her bring them over slowly towards Lucille.
"I didn't know that anyone still did this the old-fashioned way."
She grimaced a bit. "It's just milk for the family, mostly. Nothing here but corn. The family has always had a cow, so now I have a cow too."
She gingerly grabbed a cow teat in each hand, then began to tug them downwards toward the pail. I positioned myself to better view her tits as she bent downward and rocked to and fro with each tug. Her jugs were massive and jiggled a bit with the rhythm of her pulls. Slowly, a small stream of milk began to ring into the pail.
