.. he's looking behind him and suddenly ... any of you honyacks ever tried for a pet slipper? Kick one in the ass so hard your foot just slides on in?...Harold ... the look on your face!!! You either done it or know what I'm talking about ... I ain't saying I ever did and I ain't saying I never, but there's a contortion when a cat gets kicked in the ass.His butt slides nearly under his chin and he elevates a good one. Three four feet in the air with his tail wiping his nose ... and some distance. "My God," murmured Nikki, "It looks like the Carnival in Rio!"They continued, unmolested and almost unnoticed, through the hordes, gazingin wonder about them. A large flatbed truck had been parked in the middle ofthe road, hung with bunting and balloons, on which a large sound system hadbeen set up. Most of the rest of the space on the trailer was taken up mymilling, carousing dancers in various stages of undress. Most wore brightlycolored wigs, makeup and clothing, and outrageous footwear.. And then one day when Lucy's mom wasn't there to cook and we had a social sciences test coming up and I had to go pee and the door to her room was ajar, I heard sobbing coming from her room when I passed it but that wasn't unusual. But when I passed it on my way back she called my name, and she mispronounced it of course, like she had always done and like most people do and I've always thought it sounded like a word in Parseltongue when they did, and she sounded very angry.So I stepped inside. "Up here..." she called down the half flight of stairs. I had always loved our split level. I walked down the hall to the door to what was once our room. She lay on the bed, to foot of which was facing the door. She had thrown on my favorite negligee, and I could tell by the little bit of her ass I could see that she had not bothered to put on anything under it. She was reading a book, one of the trashy romance novels that were little more than porn anyway. I don't think I had ever seen her.
