Chapter 2

Near the zoo entrance we saw ducks on a pond and flamingos walking around on their very long legs. Sarah marveled, “Mamingos! All pink! So pretty!”

After a little while the others wanted to move on, but Sarah was fascinated. After a few more minutes I said, “I know you like flamingos, Jellybean, but you’ve been watching them a long time.”

She nodded. “All done. We can go home.” The rest of us laughed. I held her hand and led our group to the petting zoo. She yelled, “BABY COW!” I bought cups of treats they could feed to the goats, calf, sheep, donkey, and chickens.

Darlene and I stood back and watched them have a great time petting and feeding the young farm animals. Sarah started to walk past the donkey to look at a giraffe in the distance, but it tried to grab her cup of treats. It pushed her off balance and she tripped, falling face-down into a pile of manure.

She started to cry and yelled, “POOOOOOH! AAAGH! SO YUCKY! EEEEEW! Help! MOM!”

I helped her stand and asked, “Are you hurt?”

I saw tears streaming down as she moved to hug me for comfort, but I held her at arm’s length by her shoulder.

“No, but SO GROSS! POOOH! Waaaah!”

Darlene helped Sarah to the bathroom and cleaned up her face and hands, but her clothes were ruined. She desperately needed a change of clothes and a shower.

She said, “Sorry, girls, but we need to take her home. We’ll come back some other day.”

I asked, “Could you go with her and I’ll stay, so Jessica and Melissa can see the rest?”

“Okay.”

“Here are my keys. We’ll catch the train when we’re done. There’s an old blanket in the trunk. Please wrap her up before she gets in the car.”

“Sure. See you later.”

Jessica, Melissa, and I had a good time seeing the other animals. We watched seals, sea otters, tortoises, giraffes, kangaroos, lions, and others. We walked a little further and had a tense moment when we saw the monkeys. A female was holding on to a branch tightly, as the male on her back pumped into her for all he was worth. After a short time, he climbed off.

The girls stood and stared, then blushed bright red and giggled madly, pointing at them. I quietly asked, “Your mom probably gave you the talk about sex and babies?” They nervously nodded.

I whispered, “Monkeys do it, people do it, cats and dogs do it. It’s a natural thing. Where do you think puppies or the cute little baby monkeys come from?” They nervously chuckled a little more as I led them away from the primate area.

We had snacks and sodas, then toured the aquarium. I heard, “Oooh!” and “Wow!” many times as we saw brightly colored fish and beautiful coral reefs.

On the way out we had another exciting moment, as we saw zebras mating. They took a while, and the girls looked like they were waiting for me to cover their eyes or lead them away. When the male finished, Jessica said, “Holy cow! His thing is HUGE! Doesn’t that hurt her?”

I said, “If she didn’t like it, she could run away.”

The two of them looked at the arm-length spear between his rear legs again, in disbelief. As we walked toward the gift shop Jessica asked me, “Is Mom okay with you? Are you like a monkey, or a zebra?”

It was my turn to blush and giggle. I hadn’t actually made love to their mother yet, but said, “All you need to know is, she smiles a lot.”

I bought the obligatory drinking glasses with the name of the zoo on them. I picked up a pillow with flamingos printed on it to cheer up Sarah. I told the other two they could get something for themselves. They chose a pillow with a sea turtle and one with a giraffe on it. Jessica also got a book about primates.

The two of them picked out stuffed animals for Darlene and I. Their mother got a pair of monkeys hugging. After Jessica whispered to her sister, they gave me a stuffed zebra. I knew they were trying to embarrass me, but I blushed and bought it.

On the train I apologized, “I know I promised dinner and a movie for our date. Your mom is probably worried about you, and we can eat at home.”

After putting the kids to bed that night, Darlene and I had a chat as she smoked in my lap on the balcony. “It was great of you to stay, so they could see the rest of the zoo.”

“We had a lot of fun. I’m glad Jellybean is okay.”

“After Sarah’s shower, she wanted a bath too. I don’t blame her. She had a really crappy day.” She laughed, and so did I.

I told her, “We had an exciting moment after you left. We saw a pair of monkeys mating. That’s why they gave you the pair of them.”

She laughed, then looked upset. “I thought it was cute and innocent, but they were making a sex joke! Those naughty...”

I didn’t mention the zebras.

“When you finish your cigarette, let’s get another shower. Something between my legs is in the mood for ... a hug.” I chuckled and pointed at the stuffed monkeys.

She crushed it out and lit another. “One more. I want to be sure you’re nice and ready for our HUG. I notice more than you think. You like watching me smoke.”

“I like watching a pretty lady sucking on ANYTHING. Even a carrot in your mouth would be sexy.” I squeezed one of her breasts and kissed her neck, then stared as she took another puff.

By the time her last cig of the night was gone, I was hard and eager. I started to lead her to the bathroom, but she pulled her dress off and crawled on the bed, saying, “The shower will wait. Condom.”

I shucked my pants and boxers and grabbed one from the dresser. She rolled it on me, then I pulled her panties down with my teeth. We kissed a while and I played with her breasts as she laid her on her back. I rested most of my weight on my knees and elbows as I started rubbing my shaft up and down the outside of her slit.

She moaned, “Ummmm ... please.” I slowly slid in, started thrusting, and gradually increased the pace. She was very wet, but as loose as you might expect for a mom of three. Still, almost any sex is good sex.

I could have gotten off, but took my time until I knew she was close. She went off a few strokes before I did, and I kept thrusting away through our strong orgasms. As we laid panting in the afterglow, we stared into each other’s eyes. We kissed a few times, then I mentioned, “The monkeys we saw only lasted about ten seconds.”

She held my balls gently and joked, “I’m SO GLAD we’re not monkeys!”

I whispered in her ear, “Get on your hands and knees while I grab another condom. Let’s pretend we’re dogs.”

She happily agreed, “Arf! Arf! Woof!”

As I climbed on I said, “Good girl!”

We soon developed a family routine. Darlene would make breakfast and pack lunches for the kids, give me a quick blowjob after they left, then have dinner ready when I got home. She wasn’t always in the mood for sex at bedtime, but I always got my morning blowjob. Every-other weekend, I would take the whole family on a ‘date’. Two Saturdays after our zoo expedition, we had a wonderful time at the beach.

One morning Sarah asked if we got a puppy. She thought she heard a dog in our room the night before. We just shook our heads and blushed. “Nope, no dog. It must have been a neighbor’s.”

There were a few arguments about who elbowed who while the kids were sleeping and who stole whose shoes or clothes, but most things were going well. I gradually changed a few minor things. When one of the girls had chipped nail polish or wanted hers a different color, I would hold her hands or feet and patiently do them. I’d also brush the girls’ hair after their showers.

Darlene helped me with Jessica’s makeup a couple of times, then I did it for her on the weekends. I thought Jessica was starting to be sexy, with her long fake lashes and red lipstick and fingernails. Jessica or Melissa would usually sit in my lap at movie time, with their mother next to us. I never touched any of them in a bad way, but I touched the girls a lot and they didn’t seem to mind.

One night Darlene and I were on the balcony, with her smoking in my lap as usual. She said, “You’re a really good man, James. The girls and I love you. You’ve been great to us and haven’t asked for much in return. It’s been over a month, and you haven’t asked me for anal yet. That was the main thing one of my first boyfriends wanted to do.”

“I know a lot of women don’t like it. If you’ll let me, I’ll be careful. You and your daughters being happy is very important to me.”

“I ... I guess we can try it.”

“Thank you. Tonight, let’s just play a little and see how it goes.”

At bedtime I used a lot of lube and slowly worked a fingertip in, then moved my finger around inside her.

“Uh ... that’s not bad. It feels strange, but it doesn’t hurt.”

“Good. How about I try two fingers tomorrow?”

“You’re not going to do it tonight?”

“I want to make sure you’re ready. If you can do two fingers a few times, I’ll try three.”

She hugged me tightly. “You’re so kind and patient. Thank you!” I kissed and made love to her, then dozed off with her in my arms.

I took my time and played with her anus each night for over a week. She said she was ready on a Friday morning. I told her, “Let’s go to a nice hotel tonight. We’ll have a romantic dinner and a good time before we try it. It’ll be better if you’re happy and in the mood when we start.”
