Chapter 3

"Little one, come here" A soft voice says. I look up to find a woman i don't quite recognize. Something is telling me to run. Run. Run. My feet are not my own. My body moves of its own accord and i walk up to the strange lady. She takes a drag of her ciggerete before setting it back down onto the ashtray. She stares down at me and says "How old are you?"

Beaming, I reply eagerly "Im almost 15 Ma'am. Why do you ask?"

The woman smiles but it does not reach her eyes. "Ah. Then you are a child no more but a young man."

"Yes, i guess you could say that" i murmur shyly looking down at the floor.

She looks down at me her gaze growing dark.

"Now now, dont be so shy...look at me!" she commands.

I jump a little, shocked at her tone of voice. "Y-yes ma'am." I say and look up at her. The woman grins at me an i feel my stomach churn. "Now that's a good little boy." she whispers cupping my cheek.

I feel like im going to hurl. She starts to lean towards me
