"Is it always that hard to do, Uncle Dan?" Her voice came from my left, a complete surprise.
A surprise since I was in my back yard, doing my level best to take a leak in some bushes and not having a hell of a lot of success.
I quickly turned away, stuffed my cock back inside my pants, still dribbling and not a damned thing I could do about it. I suppose I turned six shades of red.
Janice stood there, leaned up against my gate. I remembered oiling the goddam hinges and now regretted that.
"I'm sorry!" I managed to stammer.
"I had no idea you were there."
"It's all right, I heard you and thought you were hurt or something."
Well, I guess I do grunt when trying to take a leak. I am 63 years old and in good shape except for a damn Prostate gland the size of a fucking grapefruit. I have been pissing in the bushes when I am out in my yard for years. I suppose that sounds terrible but when the urge hits me, there is just no way to make it to the bathroom. I either take it out and do it or it ends up dribbling down my pantleg.
I realized I was standing there with Janice looking at me concerned, and I had a nice growing wet spot at my crotch.
"Just an old man's ailments." I told her.
"You aren't so old!"
I looked at her. Janice is about 5'6", if anyone had told me she was 19 years old I would call them a liar, she looked to be 12 to me. Hell, everybody looks to be 12 to me, I guess.
Except for those breasts. Janice was just plain blessed, I had seen her out my upstairs window once in a bikini, good grief! She was on her back, her stomach flat as a pancake, her hipbones so pronouced the band of her bikini bottoms gapped up. Her full breasts barely contained, she was one fine looking young lady.
Looking at her brought back memories of my youth, but I turned away, leaving her alone. After all, she was my friend Carol's daughter.
I remembered the night her Mom had called me on the phone, and I went and took her to the delivery room. We made it but barely, her Mom was on a gurney and being rolled down the hall and I had gotten a glimpse of 8 pounds of squirming flesh sliding out between her legs.
That one was close, I had damn near gotten to deliver Janice myself on the front seat my my old Ford pickup.
Over the years I got to watch her grow up. We lost Carol the year before, I really missed her. We were next door neighbors, good friends, all there was to that. Janice's Dad didn't come home from Vietnam, I did to find an empty house and a note from my own wife.
I suppose I should have been upset, but I somehow just never missed my wife one bit. She had stayed in the house, collected the checks from the government, and two days before I hit stateside she had packed up and left.
I saw the papers, signed them. I never saw her again. I can't even remember what she looked like.
"So is it always that difficult? ...To go, I mean?" Janice asked me. There was no shyness, no embarrassment in her attitude, she just seemed concerned.
"Yes, it is. It's my curse for getting old."
There I went with that "old" shit again.
She nodded and went back through the gate. I went inside my house, spent a good hour in the bathroom without much luck. I didn't think anything more of it.
It was about two weeks later before I saw Janice again, other than a glimpse and a wave as she jumped in her tiny little Honda and headed off somewhere. She waved and asked me to come and give her a hand.
I went though the gate to her yard, she had two pieces of plywood and a stack of other boards piled up.
"This is supposed to be my portable massage table. But I don't see how...?" She looked at the stack and back at me.
Well, I didn't see how either but there was an instruction sheet, so I grabbed my toolbox and we went to work. It only took about 8 hours, we got it together backwards a few times but finally we rolled it upright and it was sturdy. It just took a few minutes to add the padding and the covering.
Janice grabbed me and gave me a big hug in thanks, flustering me a little as her big breasts pressed against me.
"Going into business, huh? I asked her.
"Yes, I get my license in two weeks."
I figured she would do fine, she had the looks, the energy.
"I plan on earning my living doing massage while I go on to nursing school."
"Good for you." I smiled and went back to my house.
I guess it was another full month before we really saw each other again, I was clipping my hedges when I looked up. A middle aged man was just leaving, Janice reached out and gave him a hug, we walked out to his car and left, grinning.
"Customer?" I called out after he was gone.
