March, 2008
My son was born in September of 2007. I had lost custody of my two other children the previous year.
So, he was all I had.
I named him Kenner, because I had fond memories of my time in Kenner, Louisiana.
I didn't know who his father was. He was conceived during a gang bang over the Christmas holidays of 2007. And I have no more to say about that; I was really fucked up.
People would ask me who the father was. I was always honest about it. I just said I don't know.
You have to understand. I started slutting around in early June of 2005, and I only got started because my husband kept pressuring me to have sex with his friends.
I tried to keep it secret, but his fantasy fulfilled turning into my vice. It only took several months of messing around with other men for my sense of morality dissolved into sexual chaos. And swinging soon progressed into prostituting.
And my old life, my church-based social network, was shut from me forever by the scandal.
I went from a 29-year-old church-going, well-respected mom to a 30-year-old slut so fast I was dizzy at the transformation.
But by March of 2008, four months short of my 33rd birthday, I was a has-been whore. I was fat and depressed and drinking too much.
I live in a small town community. Most of the fellers around here that wanted to fuck me had done so more than once.
Everybody knew my business and nobody much cared, except for my family.
When I was respectable, I worked in a diner. But I wasn't respectable anymore. And the only honest work I could get was waiting tables in a country tavern where the management made it clear I needed to be a sportin' girl. That meant if a customer offered comments of a personal nature that a lady might object to, I had no business pretending I was a lady.
And if a customer wanted to pinch my ass while I was taking his order, so be it.
I put up with that nonsense, but I wasn't so desperate as to let men from the tavern invite themselves into my apartment.
From the birth of my son onward, I hardly ever heard from my husband. Randy had finally lost interest in me altogether. We had been separated about 15 months by the time Kenner popped into this world.
But my father-in-law, that was a different story.
Morton, who was 55, and much leaner in physique than his no-count son, had been divorced for years. He was divorced for the common offense of being a cheating bastard. He was always fucking around with younger women. But he never fucked
around with me.
In fact, I never saw much of Morton until I was six months pregnant. He showed up a month after Oscar and the Salvadorans moved out of my apartment. I was deep into the blues at the time. I wasn't getting any sex, I was too heavy to work and getting no government assistance.
I was seriously considering sucking cock at the truck stop just to pay the rent and utilities.
I was bitching at Randy for help and he was blowing me off. Then one day Morton knocks on my door, said he'd heard from Randy that I was in need.
I let him in. We talked. He was sympathetic and offered to cover my rent until I got back on my feet. I was surprised.
What happened next deeply touched me. I had become very casual at this point in my life about sex.
Well, I just assumed no man did something for me for nothing. Wouldn't you assume the same?
When he put $840 on the kitchen table to cover the back rent, that month's rent and the light bill, I just assumed he wanted sex, even if I was his daughter-in-law.
So I got on my knees to thank him and started massaging his crotch.
He looked shocked, and he pushed my hand away and said I didn't need to do that.
I didn't know what to think. And then my next thought was, "Oh God, he thinks I'm a fat ugly skank!"
Mind you, I was six months pregnant, moody as hell and up to 210 pounds. I'm 5 feet and 7 inches tall and I can carry some weight and look sexy. But not that much weight!
I blushed. And I don't blush easy. I apologized and said, "I don't blame ya for not wanting me. I must by a sight."
He tried to say something, but the situation was so awkward that it all came out in mumbles and I waved him off.
"You don't need to explain nothin.' I can't imagine what it must be like for you in the community, having to deal with having a fat whore for a daughter-in-law, and what all you must hear from folk. I'm sorry I offended you. I just don't know how to thank you for this."
I was talking to his shoes because I was ashamed enough of myself not to look him in the eye, and I closed with, "God will repay you."
He left quiet and I felt the fool. I kept telling myself what a dumb-ass I was to make that move. I figured that was the last I'd see of him.
But Morton kept coming by. He brought food. He kept noticing things that needed fixing. The front screen door, the window latch in the kitchen, the clothes hanger pole in the closet.
We got to be friends and he became more talkative. I learned that he was not dating anyone of late. I encouraged him to see someone, but he didn't seem interested.
He kept looking at me during our visits. And it made me wonder.
I wasn't having sex. He wasn't having sex. What was the harm in the two of us hooking up? Then I'd tell myself, "He's your father-in-law, dumb shit! No wonder he's hesitant. Besides, he probably thinks he'll catch some god-awful disease."
I knew he was interested. He was there for me when the baby came. He was there for me afterward.
Meanwhile, I breastfed my boy every chance I got. And I started taking long walks. I was determined to bring my weight down.
If Morton wasn't gonna tap my pussy, I wanted to be attractive to somebody.
By March of 2008, I was down to 180 pounds, and my muscle tone was better. I stopped wearing fat girl gowns and started putting on tight skirts and tops to work. I was back in the tavern serving beers and feeling sexy.
But I just couldn't bring myself to take any man serious enough to get in his truck. Truth tell, I still had whore fatigue.
I didn't wanna be one, even if everybody thought I was one.
I kept telling myself, "Okay, I can't go back to the life I had before all this slutting around, but there must be some in-between lifestyle that I can be comfortable with."
During the pregnancy, Morton came by at all hours. But after I got back to work, and I was working nights and Morton worked odd hours of the day, well we got to seeing less of each other.
I noticed the absences made our hearts grow fonder toward each other. I missed his company. And it was plain to me that he missed mine.
I started feeling like the impossible could happen. Could it be? Could I fall in love with my father-in-law? Could he fall in love with me?
