Big Incomes

Eleven-year-old Patrick was watching his fifteen-year-old sister train before some event that he first figured to be her first employment. But as he watched her, he found that presumption to be rather unlikely: She was training to seem ridiculously much after being hornier than normal people.

She seemed not to have noticed that he looked at her. It was not that he couldn't be expected there. Rather she seemed content not to pay any heed to that possibility, somehow. She was mirroring herself before the hall mirror, and did not seem ashamed of what she was doing.

“I suppose,” he said to her, “that you're going to be a porn star, just like mom!”

She glanced at him with annoyed look to her. “Yes, I am! But I didn't ask you to come and watch me! I seem to be finished anyway, now. So you can go up to your room!”

“I didn't come down her in order to watch you! I came down to the hallway in order to go outside!”

She sighed a bit angrily at him and went upstairs.

Patrick grabbed put on his shoes and grabbed his baseball cap. He did not own a bat so he hoped to be able to borrow one from one of his friends. In thinking about this, he came across the notion that he himself would be better off if she could make some money for that bat he needed.

Two weeks later he asked his sister how much money she had gotten from her first porn shoot. She looked at him and answered: “About three hundred and fifty bucks.”

“Then could you perhaps lend me some money for a new bat?”

“How much?”

“Oh - for a good enough bat I think I might need like forty bucks.”

“I expect you want me to lend you that for absolutely nothing!? You know, I earned that money, and now I'm gonna spend it for the weekend party we're throwing, me and my friends!”

“I suppose you'll have enough money for that party even if that those forty bucks are lent to me for time. I might even pay you back before my birthday, when mom has promised me either a new bat or that she would pay for the bat I perhaps was able to see to it that I got some other way!”

“What, are you going to steal it?!”

“No! I'm selling stickers now and then, and I might be able to save as much as fifty bucks during the summer! But the bat I need during this summer!”

“I can't lend you the money! I already promised some guys to spend it on some drugs for that party! Now get off my back and keep selling them stickers - and perhaps you can afford that bat before fall time!”

He looked stunned. “I don't feel that you should be doing drugs when mom has said they're dangerous for you! I think they aught to be in prison those guys, if they've told you to buy drugs for all that money!”

“Oh! You listen too much to her! It's such a nuisance to have a little brother who actually listens to what mother has to say!”

“I'm going to tell mom to say to those guys who knew how to get them arrested if you don't lend me that money!”

She looked at him. Smartly, as it seemed, she figured out a solution to this mess he caused. “I say, little bro, that you come with me to see that they are too heavy gangsters to fall into that kind of a trap! I say you should come with me, and then he and the other guys will teach you how to be an cool guy!”

“What do you want for giving them the money for some drugs?! Look at me, or mom! We don't need drugs to survive! I think you should go to the police and tell on him yourself, so they can't pretend you aught to spend all you earn on that pornography on dope!”

“I sell cocaine for that money! If you let me buy it, I can sell enough to lend you about two hundred bucks probably!”

Her brother looked at her in amazement. “I guess they can sell you that cocaine for a lower price just because they need it to be distributed to more people than they want to be recognized by?!”

“Yeah! It's that! I'm almost gonna be like dad nowadays! Only I'm not going to take any of it, apart from the little that I need in order to be horny enough for my next flick!”
