Page 1 Narration Having been mere weeks since the Parkers move to the coastal city of San Alejo, the matriarch of the family, Sophia had found herself in an ever-growing tailspin of disasters and situations that caused the wife and mother serious concern, while forcing her to analyse and reflect on what her life had become.. Having fallen pregnant with their first child Elizabeth, fondly known to all as Ellie, while still in college Liam an Architectural student and Sophia studying to become a teacher had been forced quickly to reevaluate their futures.. Sophia completing her course had been forced to move to part time teaching after the birth of Ellie, putting her career on hold while Liam finished his degree.. The couple young and in the prime of their lives found themselves quickly with child again as 18 months after the Birth of their daughter, a son was born which the happy couple named Dylan.. Time slipping past as it does with a busy schedule of household and work commitments, left Sophia alone for long periods of time to look after the family as Liam, given more and more opportunities for design made the announcement to his wife that he was leaving his Architectural profession behind and moving to the lucrative business of fashion.. Having worked part time in his late teens Liam had found he had a good eye for design and through his photography of amateur models quickly developed an eye for what worked and what didn’t in the fit and styling of the clothing the models wore.. After approaches to old contacts in the industry Liam quickly had leapt from success to success in smaller fashion houses while putting strain on an already tense relationship with his wife with all his absence from the home.. Sophia brooding alone in their home that her husband was spending more time with beautiful young models than her started to affect her self-esteem as the now 38-year-old mother mourned her younger days of freedom and parties had been robbed from her by Liam as he continued his jet set life travelling to the beautiful fashion centres of the world.. That was until the fateful day Liam triumphantly returning from one of his trips with news that a design he had created had won the highly coveted “Best newcomer Design” in the international Milan fashion week.. The award rocketed the name Liam Parker to the lips of labels and fashion houses around the world, and with this fortuitous turn of the events, brought an offer from Des Tourtereaux Fashion in San Alejo for Liam to not only design, but also head the company as its CEO, and as a result would change their lives in ways they could never imagine.. The offer quickly accepted but with conditions made by Sophia to her husband, and the subsequent relocation of the family, resulted in events that would change all their lives in ways they could never dream and forever effect the Parker family for which there could be no return.. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 2 Narration The families move to the city while being uneventful had brought hope back into Sophia’s life as by fortunate coincidence Sophia’s younger sister Patricia and her Husband Carl, along with Sophia’s college best friend Amber Robinson already lived in the city to where they were to reside.. Thinking that the gods had finally shined a light of hope onto her otherwise dull and mundane life, Sophia was over the moon with excitement that by fortunate circumstance that at the request of the new CEO, Des Tourtereaux’s board was able to secure for the Parker’s the large house right next door to the Robinsons, and so with hope of better things to come and the friendship of her old friend and sister, Sophia excited at the prospects of the move looked to rekindle her career in teaching.. Having been out of the education system for a number of years Sophia’s initial application to the highly esteemed High School, Westhill’s had been rejected as quickly as Dylans had, due to some disciplinary and academic black marks he had accumulated.. Ellie on the other hand with her marks, and academic achievements in her previous school had been accepted immediately, also securing a position on the cheerleading squad to her mother’s extreme pride.. Sophia accepting she would need to start from the bottom again after the years she had missed teaching, applied and was employed in a part time role at the school to were Dylan was to attend, Northtown high school.. Closer to the Parker’s new residence, Sophia inwardly happier that she would be able to keep an eye on her son knew that Ellie with the Robinsons daughter Julia who was her childhood friend, would be able to commute with Amber’s husband Niel, who being very strict with his daughter, always kept a close and watchful eye over her.. The Robinsons having lived in the same town as the parkers until a number of years previous had moved to San Alejo for Neil’s work in car fleet sales, and the separation of Ellie and Julia, along with Dylan and their son Sam had been hard on all the children.. Sophia with fond memories of the house full of children’s screams of joy and play had looked forward to the reintroduction of the families to each other again and with her new job was excited herself of what prospects for the family would arise.. After quickly establishing themselves and spending “11” days stripping out old furnishings, repainting and renovating The Parker’s house was finally somewhere Sophia could call home.. The house incredibly large for the neighbourhood it was built in from the front had looked subdued and insignificant, but it was in the “Masion Backyard” the house truly shined.. Groomed gardens and paved area’s surrounding a large inground pool and entertainment area became the immediate focal point of the home and it was to here the Parker’s and Robinsons in Sophia’s mind would spend their summer.. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 3 Narration Now only a few weeks after the move to San Alejo, Sophia finding herself home alone on a Saturday night with Dylan out at Sam’s, and Ellie over at her friend Jessica’s, Left her once again in the huge house by herself.. a lone exquisitely shaped figure standing in front of a large full-length window starred into the back yard.. Sophia lost in contemplation gazed at the empty pool and lifeless entertainment area, and in her mind this vision became the perfect metaphor for what her life had become.. Musing over the events since they had arrived, stirred something within her she couldn’t describe as her mind played across the events at school with Dylan and his new friend Zac being targeted by bullies.. With a frown appearing on her face Sophia annoyed that the motivation of the bulling was not targeted at the boys but was instead used as manipulation and blackmail against her.. Aiden a troubled student and the bane of her existence at school continued to find evermore humiliating tasks for her to do under the threat of violence against the boys if she refused to cooperate had been the final straw, and so with reluctance she had did as requested while drawing a tighter supportive embrace around Dylan in hope of raising his esteem and confidence.. Having the idea that Dylan in order to get over his shyness needed to be able to speak to girls of his age started her own brand sex education with her son, but with jealousy from Ellie of the time she spent with him, she compromised with mother and daughter private quality time morning showers which also quickly had become awkward “lessons” as well with her daughter.. To her initial dismay Sophia’s extra attention to Dylan had a reverse effect on him from what she had planned, and instead brought strange and unexpected feelings to the surface from her son.. Instead of giving him confidence to go out and speak to girls his age, he had instead gravitated to her, asking suggestive questions and indecent requests from her that while seemly innocent enough, quickly developed the danger of getting out of hand as signs of the classic Oedipus complex that Sophia had learnt about and dismissively laughed at with others in college.. How could it be??.. How and why would a son pursue sexually his mother was the rational she tried to convince herself, but as the days rolled by Dylan’s closeness increased and his requests had become more daring.. After taking him shopping with her, his request to watch her change as she tried on clothes in the boutique’s change room, while giving reasoning that he had never seen real breasts before and seeing hers would help in his maturity, was to become a pivotal moment for her.. The previous Tuesday in the same back yard she now starred down into, the proposal from Dlyan to do a back yard bikini fashion show by the pool for him, she had in a moment of weakness reluctantly agreed to pose for him so he could practise with his new camera.. This had been a fatefully decisive decision for her but had come away with mixed feelings of love for her son at the compliments he gushed over her.. There had been something else though.. Something she didn’t understand.. She had loved hearing the compliments from her son, his words being not that of what a son would normally say, but more what a man would say to a woman that he desired.. Confused by this she didn’t understand the feeling deep within her that she longed to feel more.. The compliments while not outwardly sexual had come with an undertone of teen testosterone fuelled lust just beneath the surface.. Sophia noticing with every glance in his direction that his eyes never were looking at hers.. His eyes were on her body.. her breasts.. her curvaceous butt.. and to her surprise, when the angle was right.. The forbidden space between her legs.. The look of lust in his eyes when he looked at her had stirred something, and she knew that it had been too long since she had that feeling of power over a man.. That power a woman has when a flash of cleavage or sensuous smile could reduce the strongest of men to their knees.. Later that night laying in bed next to her sleeping husband Sophia playing through all the events with Dylan found herself unconsciously rubbing her pussy through the thin material of her sleepwear.. It had all made sense she realised, the compliments, the “accidental touches” even the porn magazines she had found hidden in his draw with names like “Over 40’s craving Young Cock” and “Milf’s banging boys” all pointed to one thing, Dylan wasn’t ever going to talk to girls his age.. not when he had.. His mommy!!.. Sophia Sigh… He swore this wouldn’t happen again.. “This will be great honey”, “we will make a new start”, “a new home”, “a new Job that I won’t have to go away on trips for anymore”.. Hmmft.. Yeah right!.. Why did I believe you Liam.. A huge home!, yeah big deal.. Saturday night and its quiet as a church.. (Sigh).. Time for a drink.. and a movie I suppose.. What else is there for me to do?.. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Page 4 Narration Sophia leaving the upstairs sitting room moved to the lower floors more intimate Tv room that Liam had insisted on installing another large screen TV to watch sports on.. For Sophia it had been bad enough that he had mounted an 85inch screen to their bedroom wall, but when the next day, technicians arrived at the house to install the second one she had silently vowed never to step into the room with him in protest.. Angry that Liam had broke his promise yet again to her passing by the kitchen she grabbed herself a bowl of potato chips and some cocktails on the way to her husband’s pride and joy TV room and sat back on the plush lounge putting her feet up to get comfortable as she fumbled with the unfamiliar remote control pressing random buttons.. Sophia (Quietly speaking to herself) Look at this thing?? Its even bigger than the one in the bedroom!!.. Is there anything more damning of a marriage than a man who installs such a screen to watch in bed, instead of spending quality time with his wife??.. (Sigh).. Home alone again!! Dylan’s at Sams, Ellie’s at Jessica’s, Liam’s at?? Who even knows anymore??, and with who.. Some little 19-year-old euro trash model no doubt as he makes a fool of himself throwing money around and playing the big man.. Is this really what my life has become.. I’m 38 not 68.. (Thinking) I wonder what that son of mine is up too?.. He was pretty secretive this morning about where he and Sam were going, and then there was that text confirming Ellie had gone to Jess’s for the evening?.. Damn I forgot to ask her what time she was coming home.. Dylan has been so funny since Tuesday.. but he has been good, helping around the house and doing chores without me having to ask him.. That little Bikini show he convinced me into doing sure seemed to influence him..
