Part 3 Fertility Clinic: The Harvest
During my tenure as an intern at the Western Avenue Fertility Clinic, my husband Jerry insisted on a nightly report of my activities there, with keen interest in the mechanics of the extraction devices that drew seminal fluid from male donors. We'd sit on the edge bed, legs dangling off. Jerry in his undershorts; me either in pj bottoms or in panties and Jerry's T shirt of the day. Tonight, I wore loose, soft, thin pj bottoms.
"I've been on the cleaning crew," I reminded him, "I keep the environment clinically sterile so that the samples harvested from the men aren't corrupted by harmful bacteria. Despite the hi-tech mechanics of the hitching post which produce the warmth and pulsations of a vagina, harvesting the semen is a natural process. But I'm puzzled."
"Puzzled," Jerry looked confused, "are you more concerned that I'm jealous or that I might like to prefer mechanical extraction to a natural emission?"
I threw the pillow in Jerry's face. "I'm puzzled you are more interested in hearing about harvesting the semen from the male donors in the facility than the women."
"Just checking the competition," Jerry smiled.
"Then it might interest you that, Dr Velour the director of the facility," I paused and smiled, "wants to move me up to Nurse's Assistant to broaden my experience as an intern and to bring me into direct involvement in the harvesting process. It's more money."
"We can always use that," Jerry pressed in closer.
"But I have to master a book," I thought of reaching for the book under my pillow, but hesitated. I bit my lip enticingly, "Maybe you should be jealous of taking a role in harvesting."
"Jealousy?" Jerry questioned. "Is that why you won't sneak me in? Are you afraid that I'll be a star donor, well sought after for his seed?"
