The Pickle

The scene begins with Jenny, a newly turned adult of 18 years, leaning against the kitchen counter with her arms folded, as her parents prepare to leave for the day. They shuffle around her, gathering their belongings, while her father repeats the house rules: no company, no males, just a peaceful day in solitude. They assure her they will return before the stroke of midnight. Jenny rolls her eyes, reminding them she's a legal adult, fully competent to be alone. Her mother embraces her and tells her she can always reach out to her elder brother if she needs anything. Jenny rolls her eyes once more and quietly corrects her by saying 'step-brother'. The parents bid their farewell and Jenny observes them depart, a counterfeit smile plastered on her face. As the door closes, her smile morphs into a sly grin and she saunters over to the refrigerator. She leans in and starts extracting various foods, including a cucumber, a bag of carrots, and a jar of pickles. She scrutinizes each item before settling on a carrot. With a bite of her lip, she gathers the remaining items and makes her way back to her room, shutting the door behind her. Meanwhile, Gary, Jenny's elder step-brother, is at a local watering hole with a friend when his phone begins ringing incessantly. The caller is Jenny. At first, Gary dismisses her, but when she continues calling, he excuses himself and picks up. She's frantic, pleading her brother to rush to their family home due to an emergency. Gary attempts to soothe her and comprehend the situation, but her extreme distress convinces him to immediately head home, fearing a catastrophic accident. He hastily exits the bar. The scene transitions to Gary entering the quiet family home. He calls out for his sister and after a brief pause, hears her groaning from the back bedroom. Concerned, he swiftly navigates down the hallway and forcefully opens the door, only to find his younger step-sister crouching in a corner, scantily clad in just a bra, with a carrot protruding from her rear. Appalled, he shields his eyes and demands an explanation. Jenny implores him to shut the door and join her. She doesn't want anyone else to discover her predicament, but she needs his assistance. Gary, still covering his eyes, asks about their parents' whereabouts. Jenny informs him they've left for the day, leaving her to supervise the house. She admits she thought it would be interesting to... experiment... in her solitude. Gary hesitantly uncovers his eyes and stares at his sister as she awkwardly moves towards him. "What on earth have you done?" he inquires. She confesses she was curious about the sensation of anal intercourse because it's a common topic among her friends. She thought self-experimentation would help alleviate her fears when the real situation arises. She had heard of girls using cucumbers, so she aimed to gradually build up to that... but now she's in a predicament. Gary appears horrified and uncomfortable, doing his best to avert his gaze from his sister's state. After an extended silence, he mutters, "What exactly did you insert?" Jenny doubles over in pain, pleading with her step-brother to aid her in removal before he proceeds with his reprimand.
