I recently broke up with my girlfriend Jenny. Our break up was bitter and nasty to say the least, especially considering that she dumped me for some jerk-off of a guy who she'd known all of five minutes!
We hadn't been living together, but as time went on I found myself getting along really well with her parents, who were very open-minded. They had very liberal feelings about most stuff, especially about sex. I'd often spend weekends at her place, and even went to the cottage with the family. Because of my closeness to her family I thought a nice clean break would be best all.
I refused to have anything further to do with her family hoping that in time we'd all get over it, and it seemed to work, at least for me.
Then one day I ran into Jenn's Mom, Christine, unexpectedly at the mall. She's started work at a new store that had opened. She was obviously still quite upset by the way in which Jenn had broken up with me. I guess she felt bad for me and was trying her best to be nice to me.
But when she asked me how I was feeling, I don't know what came over me but I lost it for a minute or two.
"How the hell do you think I feel? Wait a minute considering the circumstances I'm not upset! Hell no! I'm happy, yeah that's it....I'm very bloody happy! Thanks for asking!" I snapped at her.
She quickly turned away, embarrassed and a little shaken by my sudden outburst. I'm not a mean guy or nasty guy, so don't get me wrong. I simply had too many things still to say about my break up with Jenn, things I never got a chance to say. I guess I was still angry at what Jenn had done to me. Unfortunately for Jenn's poor Mom though, some of my pain and anger was misdirected her way. Although I bit my tongue when I heard the echoes of what I was saying it was too late.
My behavior played on my conscience for quite some time and I finally decided to stop by with some flowers as a peace offering to Christine. I had to mend things with her since it was Jenn I had a beef with not the family. I timed my visit knowing Jenn would be out.
At around 11 the following morning I knocked on the door, hiding a bunch of tropical flowers behind my back. As luck would have it, Christine answered the door. Her large plump frame was draped in a fluffy pink bathrobe and she obviously wasn't expecting company. And she certainly wasn't exactly pleased to see me, not that I blamed her after the way I behaved the last time we'd met. I handed her the flowers and groveled a bit. After a minute of listening to me trying make amends she smiled and asked me in.
