I sat in my car outside of the pharmacy and waited for Kacie as she picked up a few odds and ends that she needed. I heard a buzz and noticed that her phone was sitting on the seat beside me. Thinking nothing of it, I reached over and picked it up as it buzzed for a second time alerting the arrival of a text message.
I could see the message on the screen and it read, Kalie: do u really wanna do it or not?
That could mean almost anything but I was intrigued. I put in the four digit code that all three of us used on to safeguard our phones: 4747. It wasn't a very good code given that it also served as our house number.
I scrolled up to the previous message which was Kacie saying that she thought it would be fun. Further up, the contents of the texts blew my mind! Kacie was thinking of joining her sister on the next adventure that was apparently in the works.
As it turned out, Kalie had been talking to a guy she met after posting one of her ads who had a desire to have a threesome with sisters. He thought the idea of being with twin sisters was even better.
I hit the close button on the phone and placed it back on the seat moments before she made her way back to the car.
I was overcome by emotion. I was repulsed by my own excitement. I was embarrased by my desire to know more. I was uncomfortable in my own skin but I managed to act normal once we got going. She didn't look at her phone as we drove home and before we new it we were in the driveway.
Brent
Brent and I went out to dinner that night and we sat toward the back corner of the pub. I couldn't wait to tell him what I had discovered but I was about to embark on something even more bizarre.
Before I said a word Brent stopped me in my tracks. Apparently he had brought me out on purpose because there was something he wanted to tell me. In fact, Brent already knew that Kalie and Kacie had talked about hooking up with Eric together. Not only that, but Brent had actually been the one to suggest that Kalie talk to her sister about doing it. I was shocked. Outraged!
When I thought I couldn't handle one more word he dropped an even bigger bomb on me. He confirmed that Kacie had agreed to meet up with Kalie and Eric and that Eric would be coming to our house later that night. It was already nearly eight o'clock! Once again, I felt helpless. There was nothing I could do to stop this speeding train. There was no way for me to interfere with these plans. The wheels were already in motion.
As I sat there and sipped a glass of wine I couldn't seem to calm the butterflies that were fluttering about in my stomach. I couldn't stop whatever demon that lived inside me. I was wet with anticipation and equally freaked out.
Check Please
Brent paid the waiter and we sat for just a few more minutes while our dinner was charged to our account. We looked at each other but only he was smiling. I was frightened.
The car ride was very quiet. The radio was silent as we drove through the suburbs that had played such a big role in my girls' lives. We passed their old High School and I couldn't help but remember taking the girls there for the very first time.
We turned the corner and he parked beside my car. There were no cars on the street. There were no neighbors walking their dogs or sitting on rocking chairs waiting for time to roll by. It was barren.
As we walked inside I noticed that the living room had been cleaned up as if we were expecting company but the girls were not in sight. We sat down on the love seat, still in an awkward silence, as the clock ticked on. The first to arrive was Kalie. She was chipper as always and immediately asked if we were staying. I said nothing.
Kacie came in next and asked Kalie when he would arrive. She said that she expected him any minute. I wanted to run to my bedroom and bury my head in a pile of pillows but my legs were frozen in place. Brent reached over and took my hand. I sat back in a more relaxed position and I closed my eyes. Kacie had not as much as acknowledge us.
