My parents oldest child was born with a heart defect and died at 3 months during surgery. My second sister was a "blue baby" and only lived 3 days. When my parents decided to try again nothing happened so the gave up on being parents. Mom was 42 when I was born...first thinking I was a tumor. I was healthy, but I am bisexual with no intentions of telling my parents.
I had just completed my first year on my dream job with my own apartment in town when my parents passed away in an accident. It was like I had an IV of Novocane - I was numb all over. It was a very difficult week for me and my parents families. Dad's attorney friend advised me to move into the house while/during probate plus I was there (on the farm) to tend the livestock early mornings before I drove an hour to work.
It took several months to sell off the livestock before time to move on to more personal issues. When I began going through their personal things is when I lost it - big time. Their bedroom furnishing had been given to a relative, the clothes closet emptied leaving a 4 drawer fire proof file cabinet in the closet corner, which I had never attempted to find the key. I woke early on a Saturday morning and began the process of trying a hundred keys before I found the right one. The first draw was copies of deeds, insurance policies, birth certificates, their many Wills my sisters birth and death certificates, my parents marriage license and on the bottom of that stack was a Divorce Decree - for my fathers first marriage, and his DD 2-14 Dishonorable Discharge.
I had no idea my dad had been married before mom, so I took that stack of papers to the dinning room table where I read the Divorcee Decree revealing dad was unfaithful to his first wife (several affairs). I had given copies of my parents birth certificates and marriage license to probate replacing the originals in the Lock-Box at the bank and never looking at them closely. For some reason I decided to look at every document there and discovered: my parents were married a year later than I thought; I had actually ordered their grave marker with the wrong year for their marriage. Then I realized my oldest sister was not a premature birth 15 months after their marriage, but a "full term" 8 pound baby. My parents were only married 6 1/2 months when their oldest child was born. My father was discharged from a "morals" issue not a health problem which I was told ended his 2 years in the Air Force.
I went back to the file cabinet and found deeds to 3 parcels of land I had no idea my parents owned, Silver certificates, rare solid Silver Dollars dated in the 1800's, stock certificates I had no idea they owned and cash money. What was I going to do as I had already filed Probate listing the assets of my parents. I found paid up insurance policies on both parents I didn't know about and one on my maternal 89yo grandmother.
I opened the third draw which was filled with sex toys... and dozens of porn VHS and porn magazines. Then there was the box full of polaroids of my mom pulling trains of different men, my dad eating her cream pie and she and dad with a dick between their lips. Dozens of pictures of my dad with cocks in his mouth and ass. There were names and addresses, codes, swinger magazines, swinger classifieds, and then I saw one advertising a cruise - a cruise my parents took when I was a kid.
2 drawers of unquestionable proof my parents were swingers and seemed to enjoy it big time before I was born - based on their pictures. There were pictures of my parents and dads life long friend, Austin in the "not to distant past." I discovered nothing to indicate my mother was bisexual but the smile on her face and the juice dripping out of her pussy she sure enjoyed dad having sex with men.
I am so glad I never let any of my parents siblings help me with going through my parents personal effects as I am not sure they would have handled it as well as me. I found a pack of playing cards with naked women on them which were dated 1923. I held the content of the fire proof cabinet for 11 years before I destroyed everything. If something were to happen to me I do not want my cousins finding out my parents were swingers. I did confront Austin who asked did I find an envelope with his name on it in dad's personal effects. I did, but never looked in it and when I handed it to him assured him it was as my dad had left it. However, I told him I had found everything else. He and I talked a long time that day and that's when I learned shorty after a dad, Austin and 2 others tagged mom ...that she became pregnant with me. I've never shared the truth with anyone and it fell so good to put it on paper. I will always love my parents and will protect their secret- since I can get it off my chest anonymously.
