Taking the money he had made from Melanie Willburg's tree trimming job, Kevin had bought some good weed and a bottle of Wild Turkey and retreated to the apartment of a friend for a good time until the guy's wife arrived home, thus ending the festivities. Gathering up what was left of his booze and stash, Kevin started the mile and a half walk to his Mother's trailer to crash for the night.
By the time he arrived at the trailer park, it was a few minutes after midnight and Kevin was slightly surprised to see the lamp burning in the living room. Knowing his Mom usually went to sleep quite early because her workshift started at 6am, Kevin instantly assumed her friend, Jackie, was still using Pam's residence as a safe haven.
"Shit," Kevin drunkenly spat as he glided across the gravel of the driveway, in no mood to sleep on his Mother's recliner once again.
Reaching out for the knob, Kevin carefully pushed open the door and peered inside. Even though the lamp beside the sofa was burning full blast, there wasn't a sign of life anywhere in the living room.
Drunk and drowsy, Kevin arrogantly swung the front door all the way open and stepped inside, scanning the room for any hint of where Pam or Jackie might be. Off to his right, he could see the light on over top of the stove in the kitchen but there was nothing but silence in that direction. Turning his head to the left, Kevin could see that the bathroom door was all the way open, but dark inside. Taking a few steps forward, Kevin gradually began to hear muffled and distant voices echoing from the end of the trailer's hallway.
The shadowy illumination coming from the lamp in the living room perfectly captured the expression of disgust that crept across Kevin's hardened face. Standing at the entrance of the hall with his hands bitterly clenched together, Kevin was helpless but to hear the all too familiar chorus of moans and giggles that bled out through his Mom's closed bedroom door.
With each step he took disappearing into the abyss of darkness that led to Pam Ralston's bedroom, Kevin's blood boiled from 18 years worth of mental, moral and sometimes physical neglect that she had occasionally heaped upon him. By the time he had completed is trek down the hall, Kevin stood less than a foot in front of the shut door and listened curiously to the two, maybe three incoherent voices that vibrated through the cheap wooden door.
"Jackie's in there too," Kevin cringed incredulously.
Having been through this similar scenario with his Mother too many times to count while growing up, Kevin had promised himself each time that he would never stand for it ever happening again in his presence. Still, as he stood there with his ear tilted towards the closed door, Kevin couldn't find the resolve in his soul to barge in and take out his deep seeded frustrations.
"It's none of your business what she's doing in there," a rational voice inside his head scolded.
"YES IT IS," another louder and much more bitter voice immediately overrode.
Before he could even start mustering the fortitude to make a stand, Kevin suddenly heard a set of feet hit the floor and start walking towards the door he was standing behind.
Not wanting to deal with the awkwardness of being caught standing there, Kevin quickly turned and galloped up the hallway, taking refuge in the kitchen as the man his Mother had brought home left the bedroom to get himself something to drink.
Suddenly feeling as if he had been dropped into a war zone, Kevin leaned back against the kitchen counter and waited, balling his hands into fists as the sounds of the stranger's footsteps intensified with each step he took.
Bathed in the dim light coming from the stove, Kevin stood like a brooding statue with his eyes trained on the entrance of the kitchen, waiting for his Mother's lover to appear.
When the guy rounded the corner, Kevin immediately fought off the urge to laugh out loud when he saw the loser Pam had picked up at the bar.
"Who...who ...who are you?" the short drunk man blathered, wobbling there in front of Kevin, dressed in nothing but a cum-stained pair of white boxers.
"I'm Jackie's boyfriend," Kevin calmly lied, enjoying the instant glimmer of fear that welled up inside the almost naked man's eyes.
"I...ah...I...ahhh," the scared man stammered, never having met Jackie's boyfriend but having heard horror stories of what an asshole he was.
"Don't worry," Kevin finally answered after a long pause, making the already jittery man stew for as long as possible. "Jackie's a freak ain't she...she was when I met her and she always will be I guess."
An audible, "Phew," escaped the man's mouth and his bodily shivers gradually decreased as Kevin alleviated his fears.
"Tell ya what," Kevin spoke up in a tone reminiscent of a TV game show host. " I'll make you a deal...sounds like you did me a favor tonight by paying for the girls to have a good time while you'll were out and from looking at the stain on your drawers it certainly looks like you showed them a good time since you'll got back here to the trailer...are both those women good fucks...Huh?
"Yeah," the man answered bewilderedly. "Both are great fucks."
"Alright," Kevin politely replied. "Tell you what I'm gonna do...here's $20...why don't you sneak back in there like nothing ever happened and put a blindfold over each of the Bitches' eyes...then get them on their knees so that their tails are facing the bedroom door...get 'em all nice and prepped and when your done...why don't you let me have a little fun with them...huh...that sound cool?"
"Uhhh," the 30ish year old man wearily agreed, his eyes lighting up when Kevin produced a crisp 20 that he had gotten from pawning some of Debra Stalling's stolen jewelry. "Deal!"
Following Kevin's orders to a tee, the drunk man slumped back down the hall having no clue that the insistent and conniving young man that had just given him $20 was actually Pam Ralston's Son.

Kevin waited for several minutes in the kitchen, finishing off his bottle of Wild Turkey as he worked up in his head what he was about to do.
