When Tommy awoke the following morning, the bed beside him was empty. He looked at the clock and saw that it was ten AM. He crawled out of bed and found a pair of shorts to put on and then went downstairs. As he walked into the kitchen, he saw his mother standing at the stove fixing breakfast with a spatula in her hand and looking out the window. The light from the window silhouetted her body under the thin housedress. Tommy stood and admired his mother's form, feeling excitement begin to grow.
Sue's mind was awash in turmoil again. There was no doubt that she loved her son like a man. In truth, she had no regrets about what had happened. However, she knew that it was going to be difficult for them. The future was very uncertain. Where would they go from here? How would they keep their relationship secret? What if somebody found out? It was all so complicated.
Tommy walked up behind his mother and wrapped his arms around her, kissing her neck and squeezing her tight.
Sue reached up and touched Tommy's arms lovingly then bent and kissed the back of his hand. A wave of love overcame her as tears began to fall.
Tommy heard his mother sniffle and turned her around. "What's wrong, Mom?"
"Nothing," she said, smiling through her tears. "I love you."
Their lips came together in a tender kiss. Slowly as their tongues dueled, the passion grew. When Tommy pulled back, there was a fire in his eyes again. He stared into his mother's eyes and brought his hands to her housedress. Suddenly, with a mighty tug, Tommy ripped the front of the dress down the middle, shooting buttons all over the kitchen.
Sue screamed in surprise.
