“I’ve been to your Mother’s Kevin. We had a good chat, and she gave me this. I think you recognise it” she added with a touch of sarcasm. Kevi... looked up at her, mouth slightly open, and then back at the brush. “You do recognise it don’t you Kevin” she repeated sharply. That stirred Kevin. His mind was spinning. Sarah had been to see his Mother. Alone. This morning. She returns back with the very hairbrush that had been used to thrash him on so many occasions. And she needs to talk. He wasn’t. Can you pull that off?" Come on Sakura, I'm not a knucklehead kid anymore." Yeah, you're a knucklehead teen now." Ino whispered."Good, because it needs to be Naruto. If things get bad, he's who I want there for it."After making a journey in which nothing of note happened, they make their way to the outskirts of the village. Hinata uses her Byakugan to scout it out, then immediately goes redder than ever before and stops, fainting from embarrassment."Whoa, what did she see that made her do. Time to get the GPR." Oh," Melissa said while rolling her eyes. "The way you reacted, we thought you'd found pirates' treasure or something."Skyler chuckled. "It could be a signpost pointing to treasure," he said as he walked back toward them."Well, good luck," Brenda said. She was wearing a rather large grin.On the way past, it would have been almost impossible to notice that the two women were checking him out. Keep it under control, man, he thought. Looking didn't mean it was going anywhere. He returned around 2:30 am and, upon entering the room, he found therancher's widow sitting by the fireplace with a glass of wine, waiting forhim.She quietly called him over to her. He stood unsteadily before her, lookingjust a tad disheveled from his night of square dancing and revelry.Presenting a most commanding figure, she rose to face him. "Unbutton myblouse and take it off," she said with the slightest slur in her voice. Hertone left no room for discussion. Trembling, he did as she.
