Did you have a visitor the next day, someone who asked you questions?"Anna nodded."And I bet you told her the same thing you told me, about how nothin... was happening. Let me guess: your daddy said he would do something really awful if you told anyone."Anna didn't react."I got through to the police after that visit and they said they weren't sure there was a problem. What's supposed to happen is they take you to the station, convince you you'll be safe and get you to tell the truth. Then they. "Okay." Three of them, the men teachers, and um, then he moved the chairs and stood in front of me, and unzipped his pants." I cleared my throat. "He took out his, uh ... penis and made me suck it for him." Go on." Mr. Reiser stroked my back, running soft wet hands over my skin."He ... Well, it wasn't very big anyway." I closed my eyes and tried to giggle, but it sounded sad. "He made me suck it and he yelled at me some, just called me names mostly." Like what?" Faggot and cocksucker and just. The city was coming to life. Vehicles of all types were bustling through the streets and the sidewalks were filled with people in all sorts of attire, from businessmen to street cleaners. Even the trees were alive with small creatures leaping from branch to branch or stopping to eat a fruit or a leaf. From above, he could see them easily."Hi," a female voice said, startling him out of his reverie. She stood in the doorway of the sliding door in a loose silken robe and a cup of frei'ah in her. Her parting shot was telling me how she now had a real man who didn’t make a living wallowing in the dirt, cleaning up after pigs, and shoveling horse shit for a living. It was the first time in my life that I’d been ashamed of being a farmer. Since I had changed the door locks while she was packing and ranting, once she left, she couldn’t get back in. I made her leave her keys anyway, except the one to her car, and had to duck when she threw them at me.The rare times that I managed to fall.
