Chapter 7
Chelsea's Curious Cousin
Three weeks after Jennifer's baby shower it was her 18-year-old sister Chelsea's turn. Their mother, Katie, pregnant with a black baby also, was hosting Chelsea's party at the house they shared with husband/father Bill.
Unlike Jennifer's baby shower that was held at Jen's apartment, four hours from her childhood home, Chelsea's shower took place in their hometown, so all her relatives and friends were able to attend. Among them, Chelsea's Aunt Karen (Katie's older sister) and Karen's only child, Megan.
Megan was Chelsea's cousin, almost a year younger than her, having just turned 18 a week before. Megan was a senior in high school. She resembled her cousins Chelsea and Jennifer in her pretty face but instead of being blond she had her late father's red hair, which she wore long. Her complexion was so fair that her skin was almost pure white with a broad sprinkling of tiny freckles. She was five-feet, four-inches tall and had a perfect figure like the other females in her family, when they weren't pregnant.
Aunt Karen, Megan and Grandma (Karen and Katie's mother) arrived early to help set up and decorate. They all hugged Chelsea and dished out polite but benign compliments, saying she was getting bigger every day and pregnancy seemed to agree with her.
Katie had finally worked up the nerve, just a week earlier, to tell her mother that all the women in her family were carrying black babies. Grandma was shocked, to say the least, and had been talking to her daughter Karen every day about "what went wrong with Katie and her girls." Karen kept saying it was "a disgrace."
Grandma approached Chelsea before everyone got too busy preparing for the shower. It seemed that Grandma and Aunt Karen were more in the mood for a pity party than a celebration of Chelsea's pregnancy.
"So, how are you really holding up, honey?" Grandma asked Chelsea, touching her on the arm and looking worried.
"I'm doing great!" Chelsea said, trying extra hard to act as happy as could be. "Grandma, it's not a funeral. It's my baby shower and I couldn't be happier."
"That-a-girl, Chelsea," Aunt Karen said with sappy sympathy in her voice. Then, directing her remarks to her daughter, she said, "Megan, we're all going to love Chelsea's baby, but I hope you're paying attention. I hope you can see that there are serious consequences for the choices you make and the sinful things you do."
Hearing her aunt's condescending comments, Chelsea shouted, "Fuck you all!" as she burst into tears and ran to her bedroom.
"Now that's enough of that!" Katie yelled at her sister and mother. "Chelsea and I are both happy to be pregnant with black babies and we are fucking thrilled with the choices we've made! If you can't be positive and supportive we don't need you here!"
After a few moments, Karen said, "I'm sorry, Katie. It's just a little hard for Mom and me not to feel for you both. Tell Chelsea that we're sorry and we're going to be happy and smiling for the rest of the day."
Katie went to Chelsea's bedroom and found her sobbing on her bed. In her expectant state, Chelsea's emotions were running high. Katie sat next to Chelsea and patted her on her big belly, telling her that she had to be the prettiest preggo on Earth. Katie said Grandma and Aunt Karen apologized and promised to be pleasant from then on. As they hugged each other, Katie told Chelsea to freshen up her makeup and hurry back to the living room because they had a lot to do and guests would be arriving soon.
Katie added one more comment to help cheer her daughter up, saying, "Don't forget, Chelsea honey, that special friend of ours promised to come over and fuck you after the shower. That always makes you feel better, now doesn't it?"
Chelsea dabbed her last few tears, smiled and nodded her head.
As Chelsea composed herself and returned to help prepare for her party, her sister, Jennifer, and Jen's boyfriend, Jamal, arrived. Jen was even bigger in the belly than Chelsea, and because they had never seen her in her very pregnant state, Grandma, Aunt Karen and Cousin Megan made her their current object of attention, along with her black partner, taking some of the pressure off Chelsea.
While the others got busy decorating and arranging tables and chairs, Chelsea, Jennifer and Katie took a few minutes to catch up. They sat side-by-side on the couch, each massaging their own swollen tummy with both hands. Grandma, Aunt Karen and Cousin Megan looked on from across the room. Grandma and Karen shared a disparaging tisk-tisk-tisk. Megan wasn't sure what to think.
"Jennifer," Chelsea said, "I can't believe how much bigger you are in just three weeks. Your belly is sticking out two feet (a slight exaggeration)! You must be carrying a big boy there!"
"Look who's talking, Chelsea," Jennifer said with a smile, "I swear you're twice as big as you were at my shower, and your boobs are humongous! A few months ago you were a pretty young girl with a tiny little waist, now you're a young woman, big and round and looking totally pregnant!"
Katie interjected, "It must be because all our babies are black that we're all so huge already. I wasn't this big when I delivered you two girls!"
"It's great, isn't it?!" Chelsea asked. "We're so lucky!"
Jennifer and Katie nodded their heads in agreement and the three hugged each other.
"Are you still putting out, Chelsea?" Jennifer asked her sister.
"Sure, why not," Chelsea replied. "I'm getting fucked tonight, after my shower."
"Still putting out?" Katie interjected, "Chelsea fucks like a rabbit! She went without a black cock for three days last week and I thought she was going to flag down the garbage man!"
Chelsea smiled and shrugged her shoulders.
Jennifer, Chelsea and Katie shared a belly laugh.
As the shower got underway Chelsea had the seat of honor and Jennifer and Katie were seated beside her. Just like at Jennifer's shower, some of the guests were taken aback that a mother and both her daughters were so open and cheerful about being impregnated interracially. They seemed so happy that they had had sex with black men who made them pregnant.
Chelsea loved being the center of attention at the baby shower. She posed for lots of pictures with her friends, always turning to the side so that her big baby belly would be prominently displayed.
Chelsea was genuinely happy and very proud of herself.
There was a lot of buzz about Katie's large nipple rings, which she always put on display under her blouse, letting them show through above her bulging midriff, which by then almost rivaled the swelling bellies of her daughters, who were both a bit further along in their pregnancies.
