Chapter 4: Dad Gives Me a Car ... and More

Back on the deck, my uncle was already mingling and my mom pulled me aside as soon as I stepped out.

“What happened? And why are you wearing a different top?”

“Shit mom...,” I said with a grin. We both laughed at my little reference to my uncle’s favorite way to start every sentence it seemed.

“OK, I think I understand,” she sighed, “He really IS a jerk, isn’t he? I need to talk to your dad sometime about you and him. He shouldn’t be asking you to keep putting out for that asshole. It’s not like he gets Tammy hardly any more.”

“It’s OK mom,” I replied, “At least he doesn’t take forever to cum and if it makes dad happy, I really don’t mind. Well ... just so long as he doesn’t ask me TOO often.”

My mom hugged me and whispered in my ear, “You’re such a wonderful daughter. Just wait until you see your dad’s graduation present!”

I looked at her in hopes she would spill the beans but she pursed her lips and shook her head to indicate she wouldn’t tell me anymore. All afternoon I thought about what my mom had mentioned about my present. What gift had my dad gotten me? He bought most of his gifts for me from Victoria’s Secret or some porn shop, usually something for me to model for him and the strip out of so I could “thank” him properly. For my graduation I could only imagine what his vivid imagination had dreamed up this time!

Most of the guests left in the mid afternoon with the remainder out by supper as my mom hadn’t provided anything for a second meal. Tammy and my mom were cleaning up and I tried to help but they shooed me away, saying it was my party and I shouldn’t have to clean up afterwards. Things were eventually picked up and put away. In the meantime, I was practically bouncing with anticipation. My mom and dad couldn’t help but notice and so they teased me mercilessly which didn’t help either. Even Tammy was in on it, winking at me and smiling like a Cheshire Cat whenever I tried to pump her for information.

Finally it was time and my parents sat me down in the family room. They brought in some cards and boxes that people had brought to the party which I dutifully opened. Most of them had money in the cards - the perfect present for a new graduate to be honest. The rest were mostly gag gifts for a graduate that were cute, but I knew they would soon be on the curb. Finally it was time for my parent’s gift - at least so I assumed since there was nothing left to open and they hadn’t given me anything yet. I guess you could say a four year degree for free was quite a present already but I knew they would have something extra special for me - they always did!

“We have to go get your present now,” my dad said with an air of mystery. Hmm, what could it be that we had to drive somewhere for it? We all piled in the SUV and drove to the south side of town where he turned into a car dealership. Oh my god, I was getting a car!!! I squealed like a little girl as my mom and Tammy grinned at me.

“What’s going on? You think you’re getting something here?” my dad called back from the front seat. I just sat up straight and grinned like a kid at Christmas.

He stopped the SUV by the door and we went in to where a salesman was waiting, Being it was a Sunday evening I was surprised to see they were open but then it became apparent we were the only ones there so my dad must have arranged something special with the guy.

“So you’re the new grad. Congratulations!” he said as he offered to shake my hand. I was practically shivering now with excitement, wondering what was coming next. I had a pretty good guess going but I couldn’t believe it could possibly come true.

“Follow me, it’s all ready for you.”

Nervously we followed him back to the service area. There in front of me was the most perfect car in the world - MINE! It was a bright red Saturn Ion, just the right size for me, with a big red bow in the roof and a sign that read, “Congratulations Kelly!”. The salesman handed me the keys with a grin.

“I think these are yours young lady.”

I grabbed them and then turned to hug my dad! I kissed him on the cheek and hugged him again. God, what an incredible father!

“Check out your new car before you break my neck,” he chuckled.

The salesman tried to point out the features but I don’t remember a word he said. It smelled so new and all I could think about was that it was MINE! Apparently my dad had already signed all the papers the day before so I was free to drive it home. My mom and Tammy rode back with me as my dad had to bring the SUV. I don’t ever remember being so excited driving a car before!

Back home I pulled it into the garage and waited for my dad to join us. Once again I hugged him and this time, since there wasn’t a nosey salesman around, I kissed him the way a daughter should kiss her father - a full kiss on the mouth, tongue and all!

“Mmmmmmm, now that’s better!” he chuckled as I finally let go of him.

The four of us looked it over again in the garage. It was a lot smaller than the Avalon I’d been driving but then it was my mom’s hand-me-down and I always felt it was for an older woman like her, not a college girl. This car was perfect!

“Hmmm, back seat’s pretty small,” my dad mused. I knew what he was thinking about!

“Oh daddy, I’m not in high school anymore. I don’t need a big back seat.”

“Still, I was sort of hoping we might break it in right,” he said, scratching his chin.

“Now?” I asked, a little surprised actually. I figured I would be thanking him later upstairs or in the hot tub, not in the backseat of my new car!

My dad looked at mom who just rolled her eyes and shrugged her shoulders. She knew him pretty good after being married to him almost 25 years so it wasn’t like she was surprised. Then he looked over at Tammy who help up her hands and shrugged her shoulders as well.

“Hey, don’t look at me ... you guys do whatever you want, it’s OK with me,” she said with a big grin.
