“Depends on what he would’ve done once he got around to me. I was ready to stand up to him, had you not said what you did.”
“You think that you could have taken him on and came out ahead?”
“Yes I know I can and would’ve. He works out just to keep his figure mostly, and I work out to stay in shape and train to defend myself as well.” I said as I pulled into a gas station.
I filled up with gas and paid for it and climbed back into the driver’s seat and left the station. A little way down the road, mom asked me, “What are you going to do about Alice now?”
“I’ll just let her go on down the road she’s on with her new guy. What else is there to do when the one you thought loved being with you, doesn’t want to be with you after all?”
“Good point.” I could hear mom’s voice was kind of chocked up.
I turned into a parking lot of a big park with a pond in the middle of the park with benches to sit on. I parked and shut the engine off and got out, walked around to the passenger side and opened the door and helped mom out and pulled her to me and just held her in my arms.
I noticed that my dick was starting to get hard just standing and holding her in my arms pulled up next to me. After a couple of minutes I turned and led mom off down a walkway that led to the pond, while keeping an arm wrapped around her waist and she had her arm wrapped around me, like we were lovers. We sat down with my arm around her shoulders and let her lay her head on my shoulder, “You seem to always know what I need when I can’t keep from crying my eyes out. Your dad had no clue as to what to do at times I was like this. I keep asking myself where you get it from since your dad has no clue of what to do, but you do.”
“I have no idea mom. I just know you are the one woman that has always been there for me when I needed a woman’s touch.”
“It’s called a mothers instinct I guess.”
“In that case I guess I have a son’s instinct to know what to do when I see or hear you crying.”
“I hope you keep that when you finally find the woman of your dreams to marry.”
“Yea, right, like that will ever happen. The luck I have with women I don’t see it happening very soon.”
Mom and I just sat and talked with me holding her and her holding me as we talked things out. We sat there a good hour or more before we went home. That night I heard mom crying in her bedroom but, she wouldn’t let me in until the next day when we sat down and talked some more.
That all happened six months ago and we had to move since the house had to be sold and the money split between mom and dad. Mom did get the biggest part of the split. Dad had done something that caused the judge to say sell the house and split the money between them.
Mom had met a rancher where she worked and told him about having to move and sell the house by court order. The rancher told her he has a house on one acre of land with pasture land surrounding it. The rancher offered it to us rent free. All we had to do was to take care of the house and keep an eye on his cattle, because someone was stealing them from time to time. The house did give us more room than the two bedroom apartment we were going to move into. At the rancher’s house we didn’t have a swimming pool but we did have plenty of shade trees, and the only eyes we had looking into the back yard were cattle grazing in the pasture. The apartment we were looking at had a pool, but no privacy.
