Dr. Jaffrey took a moment to get herself back together and nervously smiled at me and then hurried to catch up with Mom who was crawling up on the couch in the doctor’s office when I came in behind the doctor. To all appearances, Mom was sound asleep.
The doctor dropped herself into her chair and let out a “Whew. That was intense.” She looked over at me and said, “Does your mother routinely engage in lesbian sex with your sisters?” I looked over at Mom and nodded. “Well, your mother is definitely bi-sexual. I hadn’t picked up on that before. I should have asked more questions. I’m going to set up another appointment to do regression therapy. I suspect that she may have been sexually abused as a young child by both male and female assaulters while she was sleepwalking and now, as an adult, she associates these sleepwalking events as sexual in nature.” She looked over at Mom on the couch curled up in a fetal position. She got up from her chair and went to sit beside Mom. She just stared down at her and then back at me and said, “I’ve never had that done to me by a woman before. Holy shit, she is good.” I looked at her and grinned as I nodded.
She turned back to Mom and then said, “And she only performs sex on the person that interrupts her?”
I thought a moment and said, “Mostly. She did give me a tit-job in the bathroom and I hadn’t touched her.” I went red in the face at how explicitly I had answered her question. “TMI.” I muttered to myself.
Dr. Jaffrey chuckled and said, “It’s like you said. She’s hard to resist.” She looked away from Mom to me and said, “This case fascinates me. I’ll make time for regression tomorrow. It’ll take some time. Can you bring her back rather than your father? He’ll just have a thousand question for me to deal with and you are up to speed. Besides, I suspect that you know more about her current sex life than your father does.”
I said, “Sure. No problem. I just don’t want Dad to know about Mom’s sexual interactions between me and my sisters.”
Dr. Jaffrey smiled and said, “Of course. I totally agree. I’m not in the business of breaking up marriages and families.” I grinned at her. We understood each other. She spoke to Mom and counted three-two-one and Mom came groggily out of her hypnotic trance and sat up. She was startled to find her leather skirt up around her waist and her thong pulled to the side and with a red face, she made the necessary adjustments.
She looked at me and then Dr. Jaffrey and asked, “When do we start?”
I chuckled at that and Dr. Jaffrey told her we were done already. She counted one-two-three and after a moment, Mom’s eyes suddenly went wide. Dr. Jaffrey looked over at me and said, “She’ll now remember everything that just happened.”
Mom’s eyes suddenly went wide as she processed her memories of the hypnosis session. “Oh my God. I didn’t do that did I? I couldn’t have.”
Dr. Jaffrey took her hand and squeezed it as she said, “Madelyn. You did everything that you are remembering. Including what you did to me.” Tears rolled into Mom’s eyes and she processed her memories again and said, “Oh my God. I couldn’t have.” She looked at me for confirmation and I just nodded.
