First chapter: As a boy I was short and was bullied multiple times. Later, in high school, my growth spurt started, and by my senior year I was already 6'2". My dick grew significantly too, and reached 9". It's size made it tough to tuck back during swimming, which was a big deal, since I participated in competitions. However, rumors about my size reached girls, and they showed interest in me. I had a secret obsession with Mom, but she and Dad loved each other very much. I began dating Debra, who looked like Mom. She was the one who was my first sex partner. Our initial encounters were very pleasurable. Later I found out Debra was submissive and was interested ONLY in our sexual encounters.
..........................................................................................................
The next morning I woke at 7. Dad already left for work, and Mom was preparing a meal in the kitchen. I sneaked behind her and hugged her waist from behind, "Morning Mom."
She continued mixing ingredients in a large bowl and mumbled, "Morning honey."
She wasn't using a knife or other sharp object, so I wondered why she concentrated on the food rather than looking at me. Was it because she was embarrassed after listening to Debra and me having sex?
I turned her toward me and planted a big kiss on her cheek, blurting, "Mommy, I love you." Only then I noticed her eyes were red, as if she cried before.
"Mom, what is it? Did you have a fight with Dad?"
She whispered, "I wish..."
"Tell me, please."
"Dad asked me not to tell..."
"Mom, stop it. What the hell is going on?"
"Dad will chastise me if I tell you..."
"Mom!!!..."
"...Oh, OK. Did you notice Dad lost some weight lately?"
"Of course. His diet seems to work as he planned it. He lost about 15 pounds already, right?"
"Actually 17, but it's not because of a diet."
"What are you suggesting? He told me so himself."
"He is covering the truth. Three months ago he began having tummy pains and morning nausea. He joked he might be pregnant. We laughed, but the situation did not improve in the next 2 weeks, and even became worse. I convinced him to see a doctor. To cut the story short, after multiple diagnostic tests we found out he has stomach cancer..."
"I am furious you didn't tell me before. I am no longer a child; I am 20 years old. More importantly, what is the treatment plan?"
Mom had a bitter smile, "Honey, it's too late. His tumor has spread to his liver and other organs in his abdomen. Some days, when you think he goes to work, he drives to the hospital for radiation and chemotherapy, but it's too advanced, and the doctor said he won't live more than 6 months..." She started crying. I hugged her and began tearing too. The unexpected shock was unbearable!
"Is there anything I can do? Drive him to the hospital? Picking up medication from the pharmacy? Do the shopping? ANYTHING?..."
"You are a good boy, but right now I need nothing except to see you be cheerful near Dad. In case YOU get in trouble or have serious issues, please talk to me and do not bother Dad."
"It goes without saying. But Mom, I still want to help."
"Later we'll talk about help, but for now, you need to be strong. No crying or sad face near him."
I kissed her forehead, "It's so unfair... Dad worked hard all his life, and he is a good man. Why him?!... Why doesn't god punish bad people instead?"
"Darling, I wish I knew the answer. Now go, get ready for school and let me finish here. Your breakfast will be ready in 10."
...
In class I could not concentrate. My father's grim prognosis was simply too much. I couldn't wait to go back home.
I arrived at 4:15 and saw Mom handling the laundry. I kissed her cheek and asked when Dad was coming home. She said, "Around 7 pm. And please, be gentle."
I didn't bother answering; of course I would.
He entered the front door with a broad smile, "Nice to see both of you. Dean, usually you are out swimming or looking for girls. I am tired. Let me shower, and soon I'll be out for dinner."
As he entered the bathroom, Mom started crying again, "Your father is very concerned that you'll feel sorry for him. He pretends to be worry-free and happy..."
I hugged her, "Please, stop crying. He'll notice your red eyes. If HE wants us to be cheerful, let's do it for him."
She forced a smile, "You are right. Sorry, it's just killing me inside."
Dad came out, stretched, and sighed, "Good to be back home. We are very busy at work these days. I am much more tired than hungry. I think I'll eat a little and go to sleep."
Mom pleaded, "I made your favorite: Steak tartare, baked potatoes and pickled red cabbage."
"But honey, when I am exhausted, I have no appetite."
"Try! Otherwise I'll throw it all into the garbage."
Dad turned to me, "Can't you help me? Mom is bossing me around and completely ignore MY wishes."
I grinned, "Sorry, Dad. I love you, but Mom is right. I watched her slave making the meal you like. Please, eat some. Whatever you won't eat, I'll finish later, but after working hard, you need the calories."
He pretended to be angry, "What is a man to do? Everybody is ganging on me. I think I'll get a divorce and disown my only son..."
I smiled, "Do that, but first, have some of the delicious meal."
We sat down and began eating. From the corner of my eye, I saw Dad placing very small pieces of meat and potatoes on his fork, and attempting to swallow everything. He frequently drank water, clearly struggling with his food. He looked so miserable trying to comply with our request, I was afraid Mom would cry in front of him...
I thought fast and announced, "Mom and Dad, I just got the result of our final exam in math. It turned out my score was the 2nd best in class! Isn't it nice?"
Dad stopped eating and laughed, "Who would have believed? Mom probably cheated on me 21 years ago because your PRESUMED father's math skills were always below par..."
Mom grinned too, "You caught me. Dean, your real father was Dad's twin brother, otherwise it would be very difficult to explain how your face and body look so much like your Dad's..."
Good. The sad moment passed, and the risk of Mom crying was averted... Of course I was never very good at math, and I never got above average in exams, but as a white lie it served the purpose.
When we were done, Dad went to sleep. Mom grimaced and looked like she would weep again, so I blurted, "Mom, I need your help in my room. Something is wrong with my blanket."
She came to my room, and I hugged her, "Please, be nice and pretend to be worry-free until he is asleep."
She sat on my bed and whispered, "Honey, he is slowly dying, and it is so hard to make happy face all the time..."
"Mom, he knows; that's why he fakes good mood too. I do not like it either, but we have no choice."
She hugged me, "You are such a good son. I love you."
Her large soft tits pressed against my chest, and my penis started rising. I was ashamed of myself. What's wrong with me? Dad was about to die, and Mom hugged me for consolation, yet my unruly prick focused on her tits...
I was such a pervert; I hated myself.
...
Dad's condition deteriorated fast. It became clear that the radiation and chemotherapy were not helpful in reducing the cancer load, and the side effects made Dad feel worse. One day he chose to stop all treatment and only take narcotics when he suffered pain. His weight declined fast, and we knew his life would end soon.
One day, when Mom was out, he summoned me, and said, "Dean, it's no secret I'll be dead in a matter of days or weeks. I want you to promise me that you'll always take care of Mom. I loved and still love her more than anybody else ever. She is a tough cookie, but she needs a man around. Until she chooses somebody, you are the man of the house, so behave accordingly. Will you promise?"
I had tears in my eyes, "Dad, you know I love Mom. Whatever happens in the future, I'll NEVER desert her, trust me."
"Good. And please don't tell Mom I talked to you about it. By the way, I can't remember if Mom knows, but the day you were born, I bought life insurance for $1,000,000. With this money and our savings, you two will be able to start over."
I kissed his forehead and felt he was feverish. He died in peace 36 hours later. Both my older sister, Rita, whom I hadn't seen in a long time, and I, stayed with Mom 24 hours for a full week. It was to support her emotionally and handle the many relatives and friends who came to pay their respects. A week after the funeral the number of visitors diminished significantly, and Rita returned to her home in Montana.
I began going to classes again, but spent most of my free time with my mother. Debra understood, and we saw each other only once a week. She constantly attempted to arouse me. On occasions I gave in, and we had sex, but it was not as thrilling as before. Debra's body and behavior did not change, but my libido declined.
My mother was on my mind all the time. While prior to Dad's demise I was obsessed with her, now caring for her was my main goal. I tried to help around the house as much as possible. She put on a brave face, but I could see she was depressed. I let her grieve.
