Chapter 149 Rekindling (2)

• James' birthday was approaching. All three of my children, try and spend a couple of days with me, around their birthdays. It's like a family tradition. I was wrestling with my conscience. Should I tell Edith? If I did, what would the result be? Could I subject my son to what she might want to do? Thinking back to his last visit, he had definitely rubbed his erection against my bum. Was it time to put an end to that? Decision made.
• He would be with me for a long weekend as he'd taken a couple of days off work. He arrived on Friday evening, in time for dinner. I'd taken note of how many pairs of pants were in the laundry bin, in the bathroom. After he had gone to bed, I went to check. He had taken a black pair. I tossed and turned in bed that night. Was he just interested in panties, whoever they belonged to? Was it because they were mine? Was it as Edith hoped, an age thing. That seemed like a possibility. My missing underwear was a relatively recent thing. He hadn't done it when he was younger. Maybe he was just too scared. Particularly when Eric was still around.
• On Saturday, around mid morning, Edith arrived for her tea and perhaps more. I went to the kitchen to put the kettle on but kept a surreptitious eye on the lounge. Before she sat down, Edith put her hand in her pocket and trailed something black and lacey across James's face, before stuffing whatever it was into the breast pocket of his shirt. If those were her pants, they are half the size of mine. I took the tea in and we sat and talked. Nothing saucy, just normal family talk. No sitting in the bay window today. Should I tell James about that? I'd decide later. Edith left, just before lunchtime.
