Karin felt a 4 x 4 pushed under shoulders. Hands stretched her arms out.Wait. Wait. She felt the heat of the red hot nail on her wrist.AHHHHHHHHHHH... Karin screamed with unbearable pain as her left wrist was nailed to the wood. Sweating, panicked, Karin felt the other nail against her out stretched arm.Karin fainted. AHHHHHHHHHH. She came to feeling the terrible torture of the red hot knifeslicing across her breast. Barely able to see she could make out Stanley smilingwith the knife in his. With my birthday just around the corner, that meant I was probably older than her. She was almost as tall as I was, maybe five ten or eleven, a little on the thin side, with small breasts and narrow hips. I found out that she was going to be a sophomore, so I was a grade ahead of her. All of this was good to know. She wasn't nearly as pretty as Brenda, but she had regular features and a nice smile. She seemed shy too. I wanted to get a chance to talk with her, but Denise was in a hurry about. Most of the students, men and women seemed to be barely awake as they took their customary seats. As I called out the roll, I listened intently to try and match the voice that had burned into my mind over the phone Friday night. I couldn't make out anything definitive. I stumbled through my lecture a little more than usual. At one point I thought I caught a knowing smile from a cute blonde in the second row, but then I realized she had her phone in her lap and was texting during class.I had two. She acts like she married someone beneath her. I don't know why or what would make her think that, but that's what I feel." Her parents," I said quietly."What?" Her parents. They don't think much of me. Maybe it's rubbing off on her." Shit, are they fucking royalty or something?" Nope. As far as I know her dad's a city employee, and her mother works part time at some market. Hardly royalty." Jesus, they ought to get down and kiss the ground you walk on. Nobody would treat her better than you.
