Learning to Cope with Loss

Chapter 1.

Introducing the family.

Matt was a strong athletic young man. He was not overly strong or muscular, but he was not sedentary and did not have any extra chub on his body. Matt was named that since his parent's split. His mother had named him Gabe, his father hated that name, he wanted a family name. His father had that changed after the divorce. He had been an adult for almost 2 years when this story picks up.

Matt thought he had his shit together, he had a old beater van he used while at college. College was about a 10 hour drive from his hometown where his dad and sister Linda lived. Linda's father and Matt himself had always called her Lin. Their mother had up and left when he was four years old and she was only three years old. He remembered that he had a mother, but not anything about her specifically. Lin remembered nothing of her mother. Their dad had said the problem was always money. Their dad made no money really and their mom found a man with more money and moved on. Their father never elaborated more on the topic.

Matt did well in school despite his growing up in near poverty conditions most of the time. While in highschool the family was well below that poverty line. Matt got lucky with his smarts and received a scholarship to a nice college 2 states over. He would have been stupid to turn it down, so he jumped on it. It was tough leaving his dad and even tougher leaving his sister.

Lin and Matt were always close, growing up they were all either one of them had. He had drove home and seen her at her 18th birthday and noticed she was developing into an actual woman, at least her body was. He was sure she would make some man very lucky. Her growing tits alone were something he thought about for weeks after every time he visited and saw her after he 18th birthday. She was a constant in his masturbation fantasies during those weeks. The first few times he masturbated at the thought of her he felt bad after, it did get easier to stomach after a while and he developed a somewhat unhealthy lust for her form.

Matt also knew that unless she pulled a some magic trick from somewhere she was not going to college and likely not going to make anything of herself. Lin was a nice girl and was smart in the ways of the world, just not book smart. Later when she did graduate she was far from the top of her class. She tried to get some local jobs but nothing seemed to pan out. She wanted to help her father pay for rent or some bills, anything to ease his burden. She knew he worked hard to provide for her and when she mentioned that she was a burden he always set her mind at ease that is was not an issue and eventually she would find a way to contribute.

She loved her father more then anything in the world. Lately since she was not in school she started to notice everything he did for her and Matt. He was the definition of a good father. She worried, because she was starting to not be the definition of a good daughter. She started to fantasize about him in ways a daughter should not. It all started when he came home one day from work, he was all sweaty and removed his shirt, walking around the apartment. She loved his bare chest, his manly scent as he was near her. She had seen his cock one time in the bathroom as he was getting out of the shower and she barged in surprising him. She convinced herself that it was an accident and to him it likely seemed that way. She knew better then to lie to herself forever. She wanted more material for her masturbation sessions. Unlike Matt she never once felt bad about her lust for her dad, she knew it was wrong and that drove her to some great sessions of play.

Their dad had fallen behind in rent the last few months, nothing new, he has bad times of year. For the last 6 months there were eviction notices at the beginning of every month. He seemed to pull out a miracle every time, allowing Lin and him to stay. She knew her dad did not like the land lord and she did not like him either. He was creepy and she always caught him watching her, She could feel him almost undressing her with his eyes.
