Chapter 3: I Saw a Man in Reno

With necessary stops, Ada and Roger arrived in Reno about 6 p.m. after their early morning start. Unfortunately, the “Biggest Little City in the World” was packed with holiday visitors. He spent some time phoning around and finally took a room at the Silver Lode casino-hotel. “OK, Ada, good news. We have a room. Bad news: only one queen bed, best I could do. Is that acceptable?”

Ada shrugged her shoulders. “I guess, but no farting. One toot and you go sleep in the bathtub, or some other piece of furniture.”

They found the hotel and checked-in, then crossed the street for a quick meal in a diner. Mindful of her admonition, Roger selected only bland foods and avoided any inflationary ingredients.

Back in their room, he waited until Ada hit the bathroom and then stripped to his briefs and crawled into bed. After the long drive, he was almost instantly asleep.

In the morning, Roger slowly began to wake. He was now aware of more urgent matters: his morning wood (escaped through the loose leg hole of his worn old briefs) and Ada’s warm body nestled against him. His hand was on her belly and his dick was on her thigh.

But the need for urinary relief spoiled his fun. He began extricating himself from the bed. But Ada grabbed his hand and parked it on her breast with a satisfied sigh. Her nipple was stiff against his palm; his dick throbbed urgently and wept a tiny pearl of wetness on the soft skin of her leg.

“Ada, I really need to pee; I’ll come right back!”

“Oh, hell. You’d better go pee then.” She rolled onto her back and watched him stand. After a futile attempt to put away his erection, he staggered towards the bathroom.

The next problem, he was much too excited to actually urinate. Suddenly Ada swept in, stripped, and sat, expelling a great gush into the toilet. This was not helpful for Roger’s predicament. After a wipe, Ada said, “Don’t fret, brother, I know how to get you going. Take off those old baggy panties and step into the tub. I’m going to run some cool water over your dick until he becomes productive.”

Roger soon rewarded her efforts with a powerful golden stream. “I see you weren’t kidding. At least I managed your morning wood. Or did I?” His dick had resumed its full erection.

“I told you the truth, Ada, you’re so beautiful. And also, naked! Let’s have a shower together, please.” And so they did.

After dressing, they had a buffet breakfast in the hotel’s mezzanine. It was time to find the clinic. After a short drive, they parked and entered the independent Washoe County Women’s Clinic. WCWC was a well-established resource and well known for serving women from Idaho and from Utah. After waiting for an hour, they were brought into an examination room.

Dr. Bernardo was waiting for them. “Welcome, Ada, I am Carlos Bernardo, your doctor here at WCWC. Is this man your partner?”

“No, Doctor, he is my brother Roger, here to support me.”

“Not the father, then?”

“Sadly, no, Roger stepped in when the Ass Clown denied his responsibility.”

“All right then, I see you are an adult and therefore we have your permission. How late are you, and when did your last menstrual period start?”

After a number of questions and answers, the doctor said, “I need to examine you and draw blood. Should your brother stay?”

“Yes, he has seen all of me before. He can sit over there and hold my hand during speculum time.”

After the examination, Dr. Bernardo spoke: “Ada, I’m glad you were able to see us at this early stage. You qualify for a medication abortion. So, this is two pills, one day apart. The first pill stops the pregnancy, and the second pill causes your body to expel the embryo (which in your case is the size of a blueberry) and the uterine lining. In other words, a heavy period with some amount of cramping and pain.

I recommend you purchase a couple of towels to keep underneath you for unexpected leaks. Throw them away afterwards. Your brother will need to take care of you for between 12 and 36 hours, until the bleeding stops. You should take acetaminophen (Tylenol) for the pain, but no other pain pills. I will give you two sleeping pills so you can rest overnight. Complications are unlikely, but please call or come in if you have any questions or issues. Do not hesitate to call 911 if there is a crisis. Any questions?”

“No, doctor. I’m ready for the first pill. Thank you for your help.”

“Roger, you need to stay with her and watch her closely, particularly after the second pill. She will likely be irritable and demanding. Keep her as calm and clean as you can. She will thank you when it’s all over. They will have a packet for you at reception. You have my best wishes.”

“Thank you, Doctor.”
