The deep dark hole

He fell into it. And kept falling. Forever it seemed. The walls of the never ending tunnel so close yet there was nothing to grab onto.

Could it be true? Could two people he loved so dearly have betrayed him? Did they really think he was only a kid?

Wise beyond his years. Intuitive to a fault. He was not just "the boy"

He KNEW something was up. But no one believed him. Was he insane? Was he imagining things?

Her soft giggles and gentle rubs. His tender looks and touches. They were flaunting it in his face. Then lying about it.

"No, there is nothing going on."
"Don't be foolish"
"She's just a kid, I wouldn't touch her"

Only "he" did touch her. And "she" touched back. They had been secretly meeting. Cell phones were purchased on the sly. Late night texting. Yeah it was all there. She was a provocative one. Lying so well. Hiding her sin. Hiding his sin. She never let on yet she did.

Clever and a bit too grown up for her age. But not quite clever enough to outwit the baby sister. Baby sister isn't such a baby. She was watching. She asked her mom about the cell phone. What cell phone? The one "she" has. "She" doesn't have a cell phone. Yes "she" does. Baby sister retrieves the secret cell phone. Mom has never seen this one. She looks at text messaging. OMG.........The deep dark hole is a busy place.

"She" is rocking back and forth. Her world is destroyed. "He" is going to jail. It's no one's business. But it IS someone's business. It's everyone's business.

"The Boy" can't hold back his emotions. Months of flirting. Months of "funny" looks. Months of lies. The words...over and over. Words he should have never seen. Words that should have never been typed.

"The Boy" spills his guts....all over the front lawn. The vileness keeps coming. He can't stop it. He's not insane and he didn't imagine. His world is destroyed. Two of the people he loved most in the world had been "loving" each other.

"Why Daddy?"
