I just keep walking. My body takes over and my mouth opens to meet his. I am sure they gave me great information and advice but I heard nothing. Seduce their uncle. I see Tony look at all the guys and they sort of quiet down. I shrug shyly as he looks at me. “Well, the flick is called – Fall of the Virgin.” Another guy says. I rolled back over onto my back and my Daddy was looking down at his naked 15-year-old daughter. I was ruined to him. I look up at my Daddy. “What do I do, Daddy? “Who was she?” I hear Denny’s calm voice. My family now thinks I am just a crazy slut that accused her own uncle of rape. He hugs me again. We have been surviving day-to-day around here. My eyes pop open and I immediately smell a strong scent of cinnamon and coffee. I put on my apron and get right to work. Work is wonderful. You could work for me for the summer.” He says. “Taylor, where were you and what were you doing?” Mom says, her voice rising. “Goodbye Taylor.” He says and walks out. The eyes I have been avoiding ever since that night. They don’t reach much higher than that.
