Interlude
"Well, Marilouise," I thought, smiling, "your boobs droop but they're still pretty good and," and I shivered as I let the thought progress, "that tattoo Valerie drew would really be beautiful."
My conversation with myself went like that as I stood, transfixed, my tit out, the picture covering it, and a sudden rush in my belly building.
I thought of the things he had said and I felt, I truly FELT, the way my body responded, the way my sex responded, the sudden desire between my legs, something I hadn't felt in months, maybe years.
And I realized, suddenly, with a frightening clarity, that I wanted it. I wanted it ALL. I wanted all of those things he said he would do. I WANTED the pain and the humiliation.
This fucking disease might be taking me, and I couldn't do anything about that. But I damn sure COULD fight.
And surrender, a complete surrender, giving myself to my son as his toy, his plaything, yes, his goddam slave, was the one way I could fight.
I giggled and wiped my lip where I had started drooling a little in my new decision and the excitement it brought.
I turned and kissed him, a sloppy kiss but it felt right somehow, and said, "Unless you want to watch your mother pee and poop, go on down and start some coffee."
I gave him a little push and turned to sit and deep in my mind I kind of hoped he'd stay and watch. Breaking the taboo of a lifetime, dating back to when your mother says "ewwwww" as she changes your diaper, would be fun.
But he didn't.
He left and I took care of business.
Interlude Finis
She giggled, reached over, picked up my cellphone, never more than an arm's reach from me, and handed it to me.
"Call her," she said, "Please."
"You're sure?" I asked.
"God yes," she said, "Those tattoos would make even my floppers pretty."
I laughed and said, "You have great tits."
"If you like them floppy," she said, lifting the T-shirt and then lifting her boobs and letting them fall.
Okay, they
did
flop.
"Are you sure?" I asked again.
"Please," she said, batting her eyes, making me laugh.
I made the call.
"Which one did you like?" Valerie asked after I identified myself.
"Care to guess?" I asked.
"You want the whole life cycle, don't you?" she said.
"Yep," I said.
She giggled and said, "Well, she has the boobs for it."
"Hang on," she said.
"Okay," she said, "That is extensive work in a very sensitive area so I'm going to schedule you in four settings, is that okay?"
"You're the expert," I said.
"Okay," she said, "How are your Wednesdays?"
I laughed and said, "You give me the dates and times and we'll be there."
So she rattled off four dates, starting the following Wednesday, all at 9:30 a.m.
Mom held out her hand. She was smiling and it was tremor-free.
"I look forward to going to work for the first time in years," she said. Then she kissed me before sipping her coffee, leaning back with a contented sigh, and watching the news on TV.
"I can't remember," she said, her eyes on the TV, not meeting mine, "the last time I could drink coffee with this hand and not spill any. Thank you."
"You're quite welcome," I said, smiling, and getting up.
I went upstairs, brushed my teeth, and put on jeans and a T-shirt, this one advertising

, grabbed my little Google Chromebook, and headed downstairs.
Mom was still on the couch, looking at the hand that held the coffee cup, her eyes dreamy and unfocused.
I kissed her quickly, danced away before she could grab me, and said, "Gotta go. Test today in Earth Science and that isn't my best class."
"Yeah," she said, "I should make an appearance at the nursing home too."
I had two classes, a history class, Western Civilization 101, and that damn Earth Science class. Western Civ was interesting as we worked through the Fertile Crescent and then into Egypt, Greece, and, of course, Rome.
For some reason, Earth Science was kicking my ass though. It was the way it jumped around. One week we'd talk about Geology and the discussion of sedimentary, igneous, or basaltic rocks drove me silly. How the fuck do you keep that shit straight. Then there'd be a week of meteorology and cirrus or cumulus or nimbus clouds. A week on hydrodynamics and how hydraulic pumps work. A week on electromagnetism and ohms, volts and amps and God knows what. But I figured I was ready. This was hydrology and the water cycle week, water to vapor to clouds to rain to water, and I was confident I understood that.
During a break in the Student Union, Beth, one of the girls in my Western Civ class, sat down with me and flirted shamelessly.
The thing is, last week I would have been all over her. She was blonde and cute and wonderfully plump and bouncy. But today I steered the conversation back to Rome and the declining years.
She seemed disappointed and, left. I watched her big ass leave with just a twinge of regret, but not too much.
I got through class and the test (I later found out I did get an "A") and headed home.
Mom wasn't there so I went into the basement and started planning her, well, our future.
The monster inside me danced a jig as I looked at the ceiling of the basement, mentally working out where joists were and where I could put pulleys to lift and stretch and torment. I let it run, my dick getting hard, as I sketched in my mind where I could hook up a small electric winch and how the cables would run to do what I had in mind.
"
You're a bit over the top now, you know?"
I thought, tracing possible lines of force and imagining how they would work on her body.
I smiled and could almost hear her muffled scream, barely audible around the tennis ball I would stuff into her mouth, as I suspended her by her tits or stretched her legs into full splits as I worked the winch attached to the cuffs on her ankles.
"You're going to torture her?"
I asked myself, standing in the basement, imagining it as a damp dungeon, and surprising myself to hear that I had said that aloud.
"Yes," I said, the single word echoing in the big open room making it real somehow.
