I think of how she lives alone, just like me, and how she never had any real family, and how she only has sex with people. She never lets any love get in the way. I think she had a family once, but it was one of those beat-the-crap-out-of-each-other situations. There's no shortage of them around here. I think she loved them, and all they ever did was hurt her.

Free beer.

She became thirteen years of age. Her chest was still flat. She had not yet bled. The young man from her basement was now in her bed.
