DerpyDino511 – don't worry, he ain't worth a name anyway
The Best Guesst – don't worry I don't plan on stopping :) Well, he might unconsciously remember (hint hint) and don't be late for class!
Chapter 9: Sold
In the days following the power outage, the storm slowly died down, getting smaller each day. Keith also noticed his father staying later at work and coming back a bit happier. He wasn't sure why or what was different but he knew he shouldn't question it. Granted, 'happier' is a bit of a relative statement, seeing as his father wasn't a very happy man to begin with. For the most part, really, he just ignored that Keith was even there.
"I better not come back to you sneaking out again!" John jabbed a finger at Keith. "If I do, you'll be in that closet for a week this time!" John never missed going out on Sundays and he wasn't about to start now. The boy will learn his lesson one way or another. "Besides," that bone chilling smirk found its way back to John's face, "I've got plans for you tonight." Keith could feel the fear settle into his stomach as his father headed out the door. He really didn't want to know what kind of plans his father had.
During the hours his father was gone, Keith made something to eat, did some drawing, and then took a nap till his father got home… not that he could really sleep. He was laying in his bed, staring at the ceiling, when the front door opened. He looked at the time: 6:23. He's home late. That can't mean anything good. He heard his name called and promptly obeyed.
This time, it wasn't just his father standing in the living room. Next to him, he had his arm wrapped around the waist of a tall, blonde woman. Her hair was in high pig tails on the back of her head. She had on torn jeans, boots, and a tight shirt. She was looking at him with a hungry expression, her elbow resting on John's shoulder.
Keith looked to his father, but it was the woman who spoke.
"MMMmmm. Yeess. He will most definitely do." She smiled, but it was not a kind smile, and held out a small roll of cash to his father. "You know I like 'em young."
"Alright." John nodded to her before looking back at Keith. "Boy, this is Nyma, and you will be all hers tonight."
So, it's coming sooner than I originally planned. Next chapter will have a warning to come along with it. PLEASE SKIP it if you are uncomfortable with reading anything like that. I will summarize it. I'm honestly nervous about posting it. It is only the second time I've written a scene like that. Next chapter should be up within the next day or two. Sorry for the short chapter. Until next chapter,
