Day 3
I awoke with sunshine blasting on my face realising I had not closed the blinds correctly. My head throbbed a little after one glass of wine too many in the bar. I quietly rolled over to see that Mum was still sound asleep. I could see that she was sleeping naked, one of her legs was poking out of the bedsheet I looked at her creamy white thigh and my eyes rose up to her partially uncovered buttock. My brain was whirring trying to process what had happened yesterday, seeing my mum passionately entwined with the strange woman and my own experiences and lost opportunities.
As if sensing my waking eyes my mum rolled over and woke up. She looked at me sheepishly as she adjusted the sheet to cover her full ample breasts.
"Darling I am so sorry that you saw that last night. Things just got a little carried away, Catherine is one of my oldest friends here and we had not seen each other in so long, and well the wine made me lose track of time."
I could feel my face burning with embarrassment. I had once walked in on my parents while they were having sex, it was an episode that had remained unspoken forever I rather hoped that what I had seen yesterday would have been locked away in the same place.
I mumbled that it was really ok and got out of bed to make tea so that my blushing would remain hidden. My white nightgown fell around my thighs as I walked across the room. As I poured the water and stirred the teabags, the thoughts would not go away.
"Whats it like?" I asked. I regretted saying it almost involuntary.
"What is what like hun?"
"Sex. With another woman?" I could feel my face burning even redder.
My mum smiled and laughed. "It is heavenly. To be clear I could not be a lesbian and I love your father dearly but for me sex is a big part of the sisterhood and I enjoy it very much."
I chewed on my lip. My mum looked into my eyes and could see the confusion.
"Take your time. Explore slowly, if it is not something you want it is no big deal. Just remember whatever you do here, you are in a safe place where you will not be judged." With that she rose from her bed and entered the bathroom.
My Mentor
By 10AM I was breakfasted and dressed in some regulation black yoga pants and vest. I was on the top floor of the administration building ready to meet the Directing sister. I was a little perturbed to be face to face with someone who had poured oil over my naked body two nights ago. I was promptly asked to enter by the secretary and entered through a door to a plush office suite. The view from the window was spectacular taking in the whole society complex and the countryside beyond.
The Director rose from her desk and embraced me. She had grey hair that was tied in a bun, she had twinkling blue eyes, based on her wrinkles and hair I guessed she was around 60, she was dressed in a loose fitting red gown (she was the first person I had seen not dressed in regulation black since the first night).
"Kate its lovely to meet you properly, how are you finding things?" The Director asked
"Its been really good, a little overwhelming at times but I think I am finding my way."
"Good, I am sure with your mother already with us you have a head start on most. She really has been a great sister over the years, between you and me I think she could be taking this job when the time comes. I hope you will also be a credit to our society."
I smiled as she sat me down on a couch and poured coffee for us. We continued to chat for a while about my life, what I wanted to do. She encouraged me to attend a seminar on the work that the Circle was doing and try to see how I can help support the work.
"It is not all orgasms and yoga here you understand." For about the fifth time today I blushed crimson.
"Now, the main reason I had asked you here was to talk about your mentor. All Sisters have a mentor in the early years and it is a relationship that usually continues for life. It is an important role. Your mentor will support you but also recommend you for projects or Sister support. As you know if a request is made of you from the sisterhood you have a duty to fulfill it. Your mentor will protect you from requests that are unreasonable or that you cannot meet. For that reason she needs to know you well."
The Director pressed a button within a few minutes a woman entered dressed similar to me.
"Kate I would like you to meet Louise. I have given this a lot of thought and I think you will be a good match. Louise has been a sister for 15 years and the time is right for her to take on a mentor role."
Louise and I hugged. She was taller than me, about 5'7, Dark hair deep brown eyes, and darker complexion almost Mediterranean. I could see that she had large breasts and hips but seemed to be fit.
