"Lulabell?"
"Yeah?"
"Where's the rest of your family?"
"Well... Big Boy is another brother. We don't quite know what happened to him. Dar's and I's daddy's name is Fritz..."
"Are there anymore sisters?"
"Well, now there's you, but we had AK47... or Kaitlin. Annoying ass bitch."
"Wait. Me?"
"Yeah. Dar's taken you in. There's no giving you up now."
"Why did you hate Kaitlin so much?"
"Jeeves was her little bitch. I didn't think that was right."
"Have any of you and your brothers done anything?"
"Not that I know of... though I was shit-faced one time...and I think something happened... with Dar and Jeeves.... and I think I was there... I don't quite remember."
I was speechless.

Lulabell, Lester and Jeeves were out getting drunk when Darwin and I were just sitting. Just talking really. He told me more about his parents, and his life and I couldn't help but ask about Lulabell and her cold way of acting.
"Well she grew up with us," Darwin immediately replied, showing off his smile. "But other than that she's just had a rough time with men. Clothes were ne'er a problem with her, cars neither." He took another swig on his Corona. "Or guns... though with men, I guess she's only really ever loved one." He sighed. "And he went and shot her in the back,"
"Don't you mean stabbed?" I corrected.
"No, he shot her in the back. He was a fuckin' cop, and Lulu tried so hard to keep us a secret from him."
"What happened?" I asked.
"He found out, 'cos we were doin' a robbery. It was between Lu and his job and he chose his title. Lu got in between us and him, and he shot 'er. She just goes 'round and whores herself now."
"She's a prostitute?" I asked.
"Naw, though she definitely liked her one-night-stands."
