I pull the door closed. I ask Darleen for the key to lock this room. “Don’t you want to try it out darling?” Darleen mocks me. She knows that I’m not much into all that with my history on the subject from my youth. She uses the ‘red’ key to lock the door, taking it off the keyring and handing it to me. “This door will remain locked for now.” I say to everyone. I turn and look around at various rooms. Game room with what appears to be an incredible electronic setup. On the wall a 95” flat screen tv hangs. I see a Bose sound system. I see several gaming chairs, clearly this has been a well-used room along with a wet-bar, a refrigerator, a sink, countertop, microwave and to my surprise a soda machine and chip vending machine. Again, I think to myself that we will never get John out of this house. Maybe I should just resign myself to adopting the boy and be done with it. I dismiss that thought as it sends shivers down my back. CHAPTER 7 As Dakota and I head back down the stairs, Darleen follows close behind. Darleen is talking to me but I’m not listening. My head is miles away. “Hey, shithead, aren’t you listening?” Darleen barks at me. Dakota pokes me in the ribs saying, “You said last night to call you shithead.” She says giggling. “Um, no. I’m not listening. What do you want?” I say a bit annoyed. “I was asking what you’re plans to do with this house are? Haven’t you even gotten that far in your head yet?” She asks. “No, not really. This whole place is just one surprise after another. I have a list in my head on things that need to happen right away, like door locks and security passwords being changed. Blue prints acquired, so we don’t miss anything. Furniture moved over from Jill’s home to here and lots and lots of shopping to decorate this home as beautiful as Jill and Dakota are.” I say Japanese Porn to her. As we reach the main floor, Diane is waiting for me and asks to speak with me privately. I follow her into a nearby room and shut the door. Each patron of her pussy that was being used to issue refunds for all the cans of ass-beating she brought to the able-bodied fighters of the township had something different to bring to the Japanese Porn table. She pulled away and pushed my ass so I went back inside. She never even woke up. She asked almost giving puppy dog eyes. Stacey had been watching her friend's torture with growing panic. I suppose you want your breakfast now Sir.” It was the warmest I've ever felt. The waiter came soon after with a Chilled Seafood Tower. Wait a sec, _Zoe missed me_!? I put my new glasses on and slipped out of the van unnoticed.
