The room was small. I talked to a lady; she was nice, a little too nice. I told her what I saw, what I knew and what I heard! At the end she told me that it was taped. Holy shit! The next thing she said scared me.
" Don't worry your friend will be put in a foster home near by. No wait, oh whatever it, her home will be in the big apple. Shopping therapy will help clear her brain," the councilor said with no emotion at all.
I had walked to the car. I walked into the house and I did not say a word. I walked passed my parents they said hi; I still did not say a word. I walked up the stairs and on the top was greeted by my dog; I did not say a word. I plopped down on my bed; I did not say a word. Joey asked me what was wrong and I still did not say a word. I curled up in a ball and closed my eyes, hoping it was all a dream and when I wake up in the morning Sheive will still be here and happy.
I woke up in the morning to a ringing phone. I turned around and watched Joey say the words I had hoped would only be in my dreams. Sheiva's gone.

( joey) I talked on the phone to Inusora. She said Sheiva's house was up for sale. Sheiva wasn't home and she wasn't answering her emails. Bottom line, Sheiva is gone. I told Jason, who looked like he already knew. He mouthed the words as I said them. It looked like his worst dream came true. I was wishing that I hadn't said anything to him. He looked bad enough last night this morning he was paler.
"Jase I'm going to be at Inusora's to comfort her, are you going to be okay?" I asked Jason knowing he was going to lie and say yes maybe even disappear for a while, nevermind it was a definite yes that he would disappear.
" Yeah sure, I'm fine. Go get her." He said wearing a fake smile.
I left the house knowing my brother was suffering knowing he would leave, I also knew that Inusora was suffering and that she would probably like me more, know me better .We wouldn't have problems nagging at each other anymore. DAMN.I loved her, and she hated me, real bad! What could I do I was drawn by love to her, so my brother may leave for a while but he'd be back. He would feel betrayed but he'd get over it.
Me and Inusora were closer now, I'd stayed there longer then I had planned to, I'm glad though Inusora leans on my shoulder now. She smiles at me even through this crisis. When I got home I had thought Jason would be back from his walk but instead what I found was a picture labeled in Japanese. Wild thought sore through my head maybe I should have invited Inusora over instead, no that would have been bad.
I looked at the picture again Jason had drawn this, it must have taken a long time. Maybe long enough he might have only left an hour ago. I looked at my alarm clock it said 9:00. When Jason went out he usually stayed out for five hours maximum, which meant he wouldn't be home until 2:00 a.m. I sat there for a moment wondering were to look for him. Then it hit me he would probably go where him and Sheiva first became acquainted as great friends, meaning the willow tree park, under some short spruces.
I sat up confidant this would be where he would go. I ran out the house keys in hand, jumped down the steps ran down the path to the end of the driveway and catapulted into my car. I started the engine and speed away, hoping to fine Jason and bring him home quietly. When I say quietly I mean with no fuss!
"Jason, Jason, come on out, where are you Jason?" I called out. Ignoring the couple who was looking at me like I was crazy, but then again who wouldn't? But I'd show them when I came around the corner again with Jason.
I looked under the shelter of trees, my mouth dropped open at what I saw, then again who's wouldn't, that is if they were older then seventeen and have had sex before they wouldn't. You see what I saw was Marybelle naked, I know every boy at my school wishes see her naked, even I do, I mean I did. Now that I've seen her I wish I hadn't. She had a lot of pimples every where; the only thing good about her naked self was probably her breast.
I finally got my voice and screamed. My scream could be heard a mile way. My blood turned cold as she turned towards me and whispered help. When she spoke I realized for the first time since I had seen her naked that she was bleeding like crazy.
Just then the couple I had seen earlier that day came around the corner followed by some people who lived in close residences. I probably stood there an hour after the ambulance had taken her away. All I could remember was her deep wound, a wound so deep it would seem impossible for her to survive.
As I headed to my car my mind wondered back to the real problem Jason. I wondered what the Japanese inscribed words meant. Then I was wondering if I'd ever see Jason's smiling face ever again. I wonder if Jason's thinking of me. If he isn't fuck him, if he is I wish he could see my face asking him to come home.
Just before I went to grab my keys my cell rang. I picked it up.
"Hello, this is Jason and Joey, I mean this is Joey" I said in a fake cheerful voice.
" Hey, Joey, look I'm sorry, I know where Sheiva is, I needed to find her, before you try to interrupt me let me finish. I felt a need to protect Sheiva when I was under the trees with her. That was after I saw her brother hit her. Her arm brushed against mine it was like a shock connecting us. I swear she felt it to. Tell Inusora that I'm sorry. She'll understand Sheiva's sending you guys an e-mail. Okay you can talk now I'm done" Jason spoke softly, wisely and swiftly at the same time.
" Wow I never knew you felt that stongly about Sheiva, I'm glad that you told me, thanks Jase. By the way Jase I'm sorry times two. I know your going to say only one apology Joe, but your wrong I owe you an apology for being a lazy ass and not wanting to comfort you and the second for saying you know. By the way what dose the Japanese writing mean?" I said in the most serious matter that I had never heard in my voice since I had to tell the judge what happened.
" Um a bit embarrassed at the meaning but I'll tell you any way it says fool bro! The picture was not meant for you, just one to put in my folder but when I left I kinda put it on your bed sorry about that" Jason muttered.
"It all right bro, I'll tell ma your sleeping over at Sheiva's cause then it not a total lie, I'm going to Inusora's so I'll be there when she checks the e-m out" I said happily as I hung up!
So Jason was all right and that made me all right! Never mind I wasn't all right; I couldn't get the thoughts of marybelles sweet hour glassed shape out of my mind. Normally I think this would have been good if it hadn't been for the small pink colored pimples that covered her body. I shivered, I felt sorry for the doctors who had to brush their hands against her body. I looked up and smiled, glad that I had finally reached Inusora's house, she could be a distraction, a big distraction. I put my cars top up and locked the doors. When I finally got to the door and knocked on the door Inusora had already bounded down the stairs.
"Hi" Inusora exclaimed throwing her arms around me.
"Hi Jason went missing but he's in New York. He called me that's where Sheiva is, Sheiva's sending us an e mail, I'm sleeping over at your house and if any one asks about Jason he's at Sheiva's house. Let's go to your room, okay!" I answered speaking fast, in a rush to get it all out.
"Wow system overload, to much info, possibility of blowing up, please shut down software now" Inusora laughed as she sat down on the ground.
I sunk down beside her. She laughed when she saw my face. She stood up, grabbed my arm and led me up the stairs to her room at a fast speed. I looked around her room as if I was searching for an answer. An answer to this mess I had got myself into. What to do? What to do? Inusora started up the computer and got another chair for me. I sunk into it and stared at the computer screen as if it was having a conversation with me.
"Oh my gosh she sent me an e-m it's here Joey baby" Inusora yelped grabbing my hands pulling me off my chair. We started dancing in circles that is until her brother yelled at us for making too much racket.
" Did you know you called me Joey baby!" I asked a bit shocked.
" Course, the next step is getting me to call you my Joey baby, but trust me that's not going to happen until you prove yourself worthy of the name" Inusora smiled, teasing me.
"Come on we should read it now find out what it says" I told her. She smiled and just nodded her head. She clicked on it and we both crossed are fingers. We shared one final glance and began to read. I closed my eyes and prayed that their e-mail would only bring good news. I took a deep breath and began to read out loud.

(AFTER THE E-MAIL)

(Inusora) Thank god Sheiva's e-mail only brung nothing but good news! Okay I admit it I'm a bit worried about the whole running away, police out looking for thing, but other then that it was all good for me.
The airplane popped up just then saying I had a new message, so I clicked on the message. It was from an old friend wishing me happy birthday, when I said old I meant old as in age! His name is Bertie; I met him when I volunteered at the hospital to get rid of my forty hours volunteer time for highschool. Well back to Bertie he has an anemia problem and is always forgetting things. Like the fact that my birthday was in September, and that it isn't on the 15th.
Since I had been worried about Sheiva my mother had allowed me to stay home, from church that is, I won't be so lucky tomorrow I thought sadly. School without Sheiva to goof off with isn't that much appealing oh well Joey will hang with me, I hope. I looked over at Joey he was looking at me strangely.
"What would you say if I told you that I, that, that, that I, that I had seen Marybelle naked not to long ago?" Joey asked bravely in a quivering voice.
" I'd, I'd say you were…. Lying" I answered stuttering here and there. My thoughts were all bad. Joey and me had had such a great time in each others company, it'd be heart breaking if Joey had been cheating on me. My thoughts turned to Joey and Marybelle the snob naked together gasping in each other's arms. I shuttered. Not only did that thought make me jealous and angry it also made me disappointed. Disappointed that I had thought Joey was a man not a two timing jackass.
" I'm not lying, I was looking for Jason. I thought he'd be under the spruces where him and Sheiva had spent the first hours of their relationship. I turned the corner and there she was, she was naked. I know all boys at school dream about her perfect hourglassed shaped body naked, even I did I'm telling you this cause I don't wanna lie to you. She turned around and mouthed the word help. I saw a cut on her; it was so deep it'd take a miracle for her to survive. I screamed, not so much because of the cut or shock more because her perfect body was covered in small pink pimples. I'm not even sure if they are pimples they could be lumps or bumps. It looked like she'd had to come from a different world. Inusora I'm scared scared of what did that and where it could strike next. It could be me. It could be you. It could be are best friends. Are siblings? It could be Sheiva and Jason." Joey said barely managing to get the words out.
I couldn't get my mouth to work. Had Joey just said all that to me? Had he just told me he was worried about me more then himself. Was he telling me Sheiva and Jason were in danger? Could this really be happening? So he is the man I thought he was. So he wasn't cheating on me. So he is a virgin. So what should I do? What am I supposed to say? I don't know? These are only a few of the thoughts that were going through my head at the speed of light.
" I…I…. I…. I don't know what to say! All I can say is thank you, thank you for telling me this," I cried. I couldn't handle the tears of happiness that came shattering out of my eyelids. Joey scooped me up and walked towards my queen-sized waterbed that was cushioned with tuns and tuns of pillows. He sunk onto the waterbed me in arms. He pulled the covers back, grabbed the romote and turned on the TV.
" You got to relax, go to bed, fall asleep. So sleep. You have a big day tomorrow! Were going to hang out and do lots if fun stuff. Don't worry about a thing I got it all figured out" Joey muttered to me as he leaned into his pillow and fell fast a sleep.
