A great many surprises had challenged Alicia in her life. Some brought joy, like when she discovered she was pregnant with Carmen, then Melody a decade later, but other times threatened her very soul. The picture of a handsome man above her couch reminded her of that daily. So when Carmen revealed that she was gay, she embraced it. Even when her daughter had been originally labelled a boy in the ultrasounds, then discovered further anomalies such as the functional womb and vagina, alongside her multiple penises, Alicia never thought anything wrong about it. Long as her child grew up happy.
Which she had. However, the reveal that she was dating two people at the same time proved difficult to wrap her head around. Alicia didn't think of herself as a prude, but the idea hadn't occurred to her until that very moment. Her acceptance wasn't helped that she could plainly see Stacy was much older than Carmen, the laugh lines too obvious around her eyes. Maybe craziest of all was just how... busty the three of them were.
Alicia would happily bet she had half the world's total breast mass in her living room right that second. Sure, Carmen was an early bloomer, and a prodigy in that regard, but the idea that two others would be on par with her was nearly unfathomable. No, it wasn't just them. She remembered Carmen's friend, Mary, was just as ludicrously endowed. Did her daughter just attract big breasted women, or was it the other way around? They were a sight to behold.
"Mom?" Carmen asked, those unique eyes looked at her in worry.
"Huh? Yes, sorry. So, you're dating them both, right?"
"Yes."
"And Rachel is also dating Stacy?"
"Not really," Rachel answered, "Not that I don't like her, but she's not exactly my type. She makes Carmen happy, though, so I'm happy enough."
"And I'm more than willing to date the pair of you," Stacy said, "I don't believe there's such a thing as monopolising love."
"I... Okay, I'm... is it, no... um..."
"It's okay," Carmen said, "I just thought you should know, in case you thought I was cheating on Rachel or something."
"Oh, honey, I'd never think that," Alicia said, though she had suspected it just a moment ago.
"I know. This is pretty weird for you, right? We can go out for dinner, let you gather your thoughts."
"No, wait. It is strange, but that's only because I don't understand everything right now. How about you stay in and we'll have dinner together? How's that sound?"
Carmen looked at the two behind her. She towered over them, though Stacy wasn't short by any means, which only made Alicia more aware of how tiny she was compared to her oldest child. At least she still had a couple feet on Melody. Oh god, how would she react to this? If Alicia could barely get her thoughts in order, she didn't want to imagine how a child would handle it.
"I guess that's a good idea," Carmen said, "It'll be nice having a meal. Plus Melody can meet Stacy this way."
"Are you going to tell her too?" Alicia asked.
"Of course. She'd figure it out soon enough anyway, plus I don't want to hide too much from her. Or you. Not anymore."
"Right. Well, I'll get started."
"You should let me help," Stacy quickly suggested, "I'm pretty handy in a kitchen."
She didn't doubt it. Stacy was a plump woman, though it was hard to tell with her breasts covering most of her stomach, then again it became obvious with a look at her ass. For someone so abundantly curvy, her figure was flawless. Nothing about her seemed unwanted, even the pot belly she sported fit her like a work of art. Jealousy wasn't a frequent guest in Alicia's mind since coming into her current fortune, but comparing her figure to Stacy's welcomed the emotion with a red carpet. Even against Rachel, she only had the advantage in height.
But that wouldn't stop her getting to know this woman and making dinner provided a perfect chance. Smiling, Alicia accepted the offer and was about to extend it to the others, when a high voice pitched itself from upstairs.
"Carmen! Come up and play! I wanna show you a new game I made up." Melody's voice couldn't be ignored. Whether it be a request or a demand, Carmen always caved to the girl, and this was no exception.
"We'll entertain her until dinner," Carmen said, then took Rachel's hand and led her upstairs too. It was just a simple act, not any different to how she and her husband acted, but the look of utter infatuation on the petite, yet stacked redhead's face warmed Alicia's heart. If that wasn't love, then she didn't want to know the real thing. Rachel was spirited away and taken captive behind a closed door, subject to whatever Melody wished.
Which left Alicia in the kitchen with Stacy.
"Well, let's get started." The meal was a simple, but time consuming lasagne, something that could be prepped quickly enough and offer plenty of time for her to sit down with this stunning woman, who she suspected was at least twice Carmen's age. Tact didn't run in her family, so she went straight for the main issue on her mind.
"How old are you, Stacy?"
"I just turned thirty-nine last month."
"And you don't think it's weird? You and Carmen?"
"I know it's not normal," Stacy said, delicately lining the pasta sheets, forced to lean over with how far her chest stood out. A kind smile graced the room, as did determination in her warm eyes, "Twenty years is a big gap. I'm old enough to be her aunt," she chuckled, "But that's not how Carmen makes me feel." A hand drifted to her chest, over her heart and the smile brightened.
"I can't count the number of times she's helped me out. More than any 'adult' I've ever known. Except maybe my own mother, but that's hard to beat, you know?"
"I do," Alicia smiled back.
"When I had my own business, it wasn't really going well, then I hired her. She pointed out all the things I was doing wrong, made sure I put my foot down when needed, and, well, I don't need to explain why she attracted a lot of customers." Stacy blushed and shifted her weight slightly, bringing a leg up between her and Alicia, as if to hide something.
Yes, Carmen was attractive. Penises or none, anyone would be blessed by Heaven itself to be with her, but did that really arouse this woman so much? Alicia supposed it was understandable, she was a grown woman and Carmen would be nineteen later that year. They must've done stuff together.
"Sure, I get it," Alicia said, doing her best not to judge. If she met a guy as handsome as Carmen was beautiful, then she might be in the same position.
"Even when it... when the fire happened, she wanted to help. But some things happened and I couldn't talk to her," Stacy's eternal grin pinched to a grimace, "It was torture for months. I couldn't contact her, yet she was the only reason I didn't just lie in bed and cry myself to sleep every night. Finding someone that accepts me so wholeheartedly like her is, well, not one in a million, I've seen the internet, but it feels like a miracle to me."
"What do you mean?" Alicia asked. Did that mean Stacy had some kind of criminal record? Or a massive scar? Or was it something more in line with Carmen's own unique circumstance? She glanced at Stacy's hips, but the leg was still in her way and she hadn't thought to look closely earlier.
