Chachi ne bhi kuch nahin kaha, magar shaam ko jab main lobby main baitha huya tha to chachi wahaan aayi aur phir unhone mujhse pucha ki maine channel ...yon change kiya tha. pehle to main chup raha phir unke baar baar puchne main maine keh diya ko woh seen acha nahin tha. Yeh kehne par unhon ne poocha ki usme kya galat tha, to main unki taraf bahut heraani se dekh raha tha wo thoda sa hasi aur chali gaye. Mujhe laga ki chachi ko is baare main baaten karna shayad acha lagta hai isiliye woh baab. But I can damn make sure it never happens again." She paused and pounded her hand on her thigh. "What the FUCK were you thinking?"She slumped further in the kitchen chair. The cigarette she had laid in the ashtray had burned down to the filter so she stubbed it out and lit another one."Yuck." Her stomach revolted again. She crushed the cigarette out and refilled her coffee cup. She stood and crossed to the refrigerator, drinking the black coffee as she went. She rummaged through the food,. ?I havethis...my needle gun.?Mom accepted the weapon and looked it with a gleam of interest in hereyes. ?A miniaturized coil induction gun,? Mom mused, ejecting the clipand adding, ?firing flechettes.??Small and non-lethal, so I can carry it around school,? I explained.Then I saw Mom looking at one of the flechette?s and quickly told her,?Don?t touch the tips. They?re all coated with a poison that a friendmakes...??Poison?? Mom asked in surprise, quickly pulling her hands away.?A paralyzing. ” Brook moaned, pushing her face into the towel. I worked down her spine, spreading my thumb across her skin from her vertebrae, lower and lower down her back to the hem of her bikini bottoms. I repeated this several times. When my hands started to hurt I cracked her back and rubbed in the last of the sunscreen, then took my hands off of her. She made a little disappointed noise but lay still. “And now you?” I asked, turning to Eve. She bit her lip and nodded, rolling over onto her.
