I'd grabbed up the cutoffs and stepped into them but hadn't even found my tee-shirt when Minni walked into the bedroom. Phil had just found his pants, near the doorway, and put them in front of himself.
'What's going on?' Minni said as she looked from one of us to the others. 'I thought you were just coming in for your wallet.'
'Yeah, ah…' Phil stammered. Molly was just standing with her mouth open in surprise, trying to cover herself and failing miserably. Both her breasts and her dripping cunt were visible to me as they were to Minni. Minni didn't even ask her mother.
'Sue?'
Honesty, I found a long time ago, always works better than the best dissembly. Besides, I couldn't think of a lie that would come anywhere close to covering up anything in this situation.
I walked across the few paces that separated us and put my arm around her shoulders and smiled.
'Your mom was licking me,' her head lifted rapidly, her mouth opening, as she looked at her mother. 'Like you do some nights and I do to you other nights,' I added. Her head spun around to me, her jaw dropping at the disclosure in front of her parents. I just held her. I'd heard the gasp from Molly at both statements.
'What?' Phil said, sounding scandalized. I just nodded.
'Your little girl is growing up,' I said with a reassuring smile. 'Anyway,' I continued, 'when your dad came in, he saw us and decided to join us instead of doing something dumb like objecting.'
Her parents were staring at her, waiting for her reaction. She looked at one and then the other of them. Then she relaxed and shrugged her shoulders.
'So. Are we still going to the market?' she asked. Phil's shoulders relaxed as a smile spread on his face. Molly sighed her relief.
'Give me a minute, baby,' he said as he stepped into his pants. Minni walked back out the door. She'd only just left when he put the shirt on unbuttoned and stepped back into his shoes.
I leaned down and found my tee-shirt on the floor in the shadows as he walked to Molly, kissed her as he put his hand between her legs, and turned to the door.
He stopped as he entered the hall and turned back to us.
'If you pick up where you left off?' he said. 'I want you to do it on the kitchen table. Understand, Molly?'
'The kitchen table?' she said, wrinkling her nose. He looked at me with a grin.
'Understood, Sue?' I nodded. I looked at Molly and saw a spreading grin as the front door slammed shut. She dropped the ineffective sheet to the floor.
'To the kitchen?' she said with a blush. I didn't bother putting my tee-shirt back on but we did lock the doors before I laid down on the cold kitchen table.
Minni hadn't talked to any of us after she and her father got back home from their errand. She acted normally except for that lack, talking with the boys and doing the dishes without comment. We watched TV for a while before Molly and Phil told the boys it was bedtime. It was silent in the room after they'd gone and until Minni and I said our goodnights as well. For the first time in my memory, Minni didn't kiss her mom and dad goodnight but just went to the room.
'Make sure she's all right, Sue,' Molly said as she looked sadly at her retreating back. Phil echoed the thought when I kissed him.
She didn't talk to me as she got into her nightgown and bed nor when I got in beside her. She turned away from me in the moonlight. I thought for a little while but then turned toward her and put my arms around her.
'Minni? Talk to me,' I said. She shook her head. 'Please? I'm your friend.'
'Friend?' she said then. 'I saw what you were doing.'
'Tell me. What was that?'
'I saw you with my parents.'
'I know that. But what did you think you saw exactly.'
'Come on, Sue. You were all naked. All three of you were together, laying on each other and stuff.'
'Yes. We were. I'll add to it. Your dad had just finished coming in your mom's pussy. I'd been licking her clit while she sucked on my pussy.'
'Sue!' she said with disgust.
'What's wrong? You know that your parents love each other. And you know that they love me – and you. One of the best ways to show love is with sex. It's natural.'
'I know that. But…'
'Now think. What is it that you are upset about?' I could almost feel her thinking, wrapped in my arms. She mumbled.
'What?' I said.
'Jealous,' she said.
'You're jealous? Is that what you said?' I smiled.
'Yes! I'm jealous! All right?'
'Of course. There's nothing wrong with that.'
'You had something with my parents that I know I can never ever have. Probably you've even done it before.'
'Not with both of them,' I said.
'Oh. Just dad or just mom?' she spit.
'Both of them. But not together.'
'What? You made love to both of them?'
'Sure. And with you and your brothers.'
'So now you've fucked everybody in the family.' I laughed.
'I love you all.'
'Literally,' she hissed.
'Yes.' She was quiet in my arms for a long time, her fingers tracing up and down across my wrist.
'I'm sorry Sue,' she said. 'I shouldn't blame you. I mean there's nothing you can do.'
'Let me understand. You've made love to your brothers and you've made love to me. You're just upset because you haven't made love to either of your parents. Is that right?' She laughed now and was quiet again for a long time.
'Yeah. I guess it sounds silly, doesn't it.' She put her hands over mine on her stomach and hugged them. 'I'm silly, aren't I?'
'No,' I said. 'No, I don't think so. Come on.' I held on to her hand as I eased out of bed. 'Come on,' I insisted. Finally, she got up and followed me as I pulled her to the door, shutting it silently behind us. Then I walked to the door across from us and opened it. After she'd come in behind me, squeezing my hand as if asking what we were doing, I shut it again.
The moonlight was brighter in this room, shining directly in the window like a beacon. Phil lay on his side, facing the edge of the bed. Molly, her legs spread under the covers, was on her back. I moved to the bed and pulled down the sheet and light blanket to Phil's knees. He was nude in the moonlight.
Minni grinned as I guided her in laying down in front of her father, shaping her body to his curved one.
I walked quickly around the foot of the bed and pulled the covers down on Molly's side, looking at her nakedness, sprawled as she was. She turned toward Phil, seeking his warmth, as I crawled in behind her.
I reached between them and put my hand on Phil's bottom, rubbing it. He stirred.
I thought he was mostly awake when I heard Minni. 'Daddy,' she whispered. 'I was jealous.'
Chapter 11
After saying goodbye to her mom and Sue, Minni skipped down the steps of the house and out to the sidewalk, turning toward the swimming pool. She had a bag filled with her towel and swimsuit in her hand.
Paul had said he would be at the pool today and her mother and Sue had encouraged her to go if she wanted to.
