Wanda was fit to be tied. "I thought you'd taken up permanent residence! I went in twice, and twice they said you'd just be a few more minutes! I was tempted to call Dad and tell him you were obviously in extremis and to come quick." "You will be happy to know I passed the physical and can play ball." "That plan's pretty well shot. Like I said, you don't have to." "And like I said," we were driving down the road as I talked, "I think it will be a hoot. Me, total wuss Davey Harper, on the varsity baseball team as a freshman. And not because you want me there, or because Dad wants me there, but because I am demonstrably better than the other guys on the team." I'll say this for Wanda, she knew enough not to push the subject. After a few minutes we were nearly home, I looked at her for a second, and then said, "Could I talk to you for a few minutes when we get home?" She pulled into the driveway, shut off the engine. "Oh, it's talking you want to do?" "Actually, yes." "Well, you've ruined most of the morning, if you want to spend what's left talking... that's your choice. After lunch I'm going over to Pammie's." I poured myself some iced tea; Wanda saw it and shook her head. "You're serious." "And you said you were sore." "Not so much today." "Well, I'm not sure I'm much of a half-a-loaf guy." "I didn't hear you complaining yesterday." "And I'm not complaining today. And yes, I'm still horny and want to do it with you. But you, Mom and Dad, Pammie and Karen... some other things. I've been doing a lot of thinking." "Thinking and sex don't mix," Wanda said curtly. "Tell me about it." I sipped from my tea. Where should I start? "I gave a lot of thought about what to do for Karen." I shook my head. "I can't think of a thing that doesn't involve lying to everyone." "And since when has doing something Mom or Dad didn't want you to do, stopped you?" "It has before. When what they wanted coincided with what I wanted. I think this time they're right. I'm not going to do it. I'd like very much to help, but I can't think of a way to do it. Maybe a couple of dates, but no jacket. No going steady. Not unless Karen really wants to go with me. Which kind of defeats the entire purpose of the exercise." Wanda nodded. "I tried to think of something too." She spread her hands helplessly. "Nothing. I figured out lying would be a really bad idea, too. Not to mention the fact that Jack's likely to flip." "I'll keep thinking, but right now..." "Yeah, well, it would have been nice. Thanks for trying, Davey." "Monday you, Pammie and Karen asked me not to talk about Pammie and Karen." Wanda's eyes narrowed, I saw her tense. "Who'd you tell?" I flipped her a bird. "Wanda, I'd like you to promise me the same thing. I need some advice from you and I want you to promise me in advance you will never tell another person about it. No one. Not Pammie, not Jack, not anyone." "So, in what way are you in trouble?" she said, laughing. "Wanda... I want to know how you'd feel if you were raped. Knocked down, beaten up, bones broken, raped." Without a word, she got up and left. There was no expression on her face; she didn't say a word. She just got up and left. Eventually I took my tea glass into the family room, turned on the same Enya CD from yesterday, sat down on the couch, looking into the distance. Entirely too much to think about! And yet, too many things that had to be thought about. There's a lot I'm missing, I thought. While I couldn't imagine what it would be like to have somebody sticking it to me when I didn't want it, I could certainly relate to being on the ground, having someone pound on me. It hadn't happened often, but it had happened. You get an awful, sick feeling in your stomach afterwards. It makes it harder to stand up to them the next time. I'd fought back as best I could, even so. I thought about that for a second. I'd never broken bones, not mine, not anyone else's. Never wanted to, no matter how bad I'd been hurt. Hit back, yes. What had Wanda said the other day about motivating me? Was that why I went out for baseball? She hadn't motivated me before the picnic, so it was hard to say. If you were motivated enough, how hard would you fight back? Death before dishonor? What if you couldn't get it right? No death and dishonored? That had to bite, big time. Actually, I couldn't imagine worse. I heard a sound, saw Wanda at the CD player, shutting it off. She walked over and stood in front of me. "Well, go ahead, rape me." "Pardon?" I was startled. She waved her fist. "You might get started, little brother, but if you do, I'll kill you." "Wanda, I met a girl today who was raped. She's really torn up about it. I don't understand at all what it was like for her. I just wanted to know what you thought." Her eyes widened, her nostrils flared. She stared at me like I was a Martian with bug-eyes. I continued to talk. "She couldn't stop it; it wasn't her fault what happened. I've been beaten up a couple of times; it's no fun. It sucks, all of that. Afterwards, I mean, the other guy was bigger and stronger. A couple of times it was more than one. It was either let it go or get killed." "You wouldn't understand," she said, shaking her head. "And that's why I asked. I want to understand. I wish I could, but I can't. I came to my big sister for advice." She pointed at my crotch. "There's the reason. Guys think with it. Some guys, like you, have a conscience. They give a rat's ass about who they are with, how good it is for the other person. Guys like that don't grow on trees. Yesterday, I told you I was sore; you were content to just nod and say okay. You know what would happen if I told Jack that?" "He'd kill me?" I tried to smile. "Or me. Well, I don't think Jack would hit me, not really. But let's just say I've seen him when I had my period. He is not a happy camper; he wants to push the envelope. Do you have any idea of how icky that seems to me?" I contemplated the brief fear from before that I was going down on her during her period. "I have a little idea." "Rape, Davey, isn't sex. It's about power. A guy just ignores what the girl wants, takes what he wants. It's hell being powerless, Davey. I don't care how strong you are, it takes a lot to ignore something like that. It's different for girls, Davey. Trust me." "And if her parents weren't supportive? If she has no friends?" "Hell incarnate, Davey." "And if she's pregnant?" I pushed. Wanda paled. "You know someone like this?" I nodded. "Jeez, I hope she has at least one good friend!" "I told you, already. She doesn't have any. I volunteered, but..." I sighed. I was unprepared for my sister flinging herself on me, crying and hugging me. I stroked her hair and for the first time in several days had non-sexual thoughts about her. The first thought in my head was that it had happened to Wanda. I was going to open my mouth, but Dr. Jacoby's words came back to me. "Be kind, be patient. You know what I mean." It had been Emily's choice to tell me. That burned in my mind. Dr. Jacoby had simply put me in the room; I'd made a few stupid comments when I didn't understand what was going on. It had been Emily who'd talked about everything. If Doctor Jacoby had told me about it in advance, I'd have been overwhelmed with sympathy and said the wrong things. As it was, I might not have said the right things, but what I had said was clueless. I looked down at my sister, sobbing on my shoulder and decided that that had to be a universal truth. I can't ask her if she was raped at some point; that's up to her to tell me. Still, I'm human. I cast back over the last couple of years. Wanda was seventeen now, she'd turned seventeen on the Fourth of July. I was thirteen going on fourteen. With cold certainty I knew the date, if that was what had happened. Two years ago, just before the 4th of July, I'd been at a summer camp. Dad had shown up two days before camp was to end and told me that it was time for us to do something together. For the next two weeks we'd camped out, all across Texas, New Mexico, Colorado and Arizona. One day Dad told me he'd had enough of my bitching and we turned back, an hour after we stood for the first time on the edge of the Grand Canyon. I was stunned at the time that he could have that attitude looking at something as awesome and grand as that magnificent ditch. Here and now, I leaned down and kissed Wanda's hair lightly. "I love you, big sister." I said quietly. "Now and forever." She too wiped tears off with her sleeve. "I'm sorry, Davey. It's just..." I nodded. "My reaction today was to offer to find the guy who hurt her and pound on him even more than she did." I laughed bitterly. "And I would be what, then? Just like him. Like I said, I've been doing a lot of thinking." She reached out, took my hand and put it on her breast. I looked at her steadily. "I'm not in the mood." "Neither am I. I have to tell myself, sometimes, not everyone with a cock wants to force it into any cunt he can beat into submission." "Well, I'm here to tell you, I never want to go where I'm not wanted. It's why I didn't have a problem when Pammie threatened dire things to my body if I looked at Karen." "That was a really dumb idea." Wanda seemed to be settling down. I shook my head. "It wasn't so much dumb as unworkable. Even without Jack, it would have meant lying for a long time." "It's not as hard as you might think. Lying like that." "It's one thing not to talk about something, it's something else again to look people in the eye and say, 'Oh yeah, I love Karen! God, what a great kisser!'" "Do you want to know what happened?" she asked, snuggling back down, but ostentatiously keeping my hand on her breast. "Wanda, the other night you came on to me. I was... surprised." "You had a really goofy look on your face. Goofy, but cute," she agreed. "And it didn't work out right then, but it did later. You told me why; you didn't make any pretense of hiding what you wanted or why. You were straight up, Wanda." "I wasn't going to be straight-up with Jack. I was going to lie to him." "I promise I'm not jealous of Jack," I told Wanda, moving my hand to lightly chafe her breast through her blouse and bra. "But I can't help but think I keep hearing from you all these reasons why Jack isn't going to work out." I felt her stiffen. Wanda, not her nipple. "I suppose I deserve that for letting you do this," she pressed my hand on her breast. "I think you're letting me do this because deep down, you know how you feel about Jack." "I'm scared." I looked at her, trying to imagine Wanda scared. But it was there, in her eyes. I could see it. "You mentioned Brian the other day," she told me. I nodded, and then looked at her sharply. Brian? "He didn't like my breaking up with him. He was pissed for weeks and weeks. I thought he'd got over it, but a year later..." She looked at me. "He said he'd found some things of mine; like a fool, I went to his house. He beat me up and raped me." She met my eyes. "He'd have killed me, he told me he was going to, but his father came home and saw what he was doing. His father called 911; he wrestled the gun out of Brian's hand." She made a motion near my hand, along her side. "Brian shot his own father, here." And I hadn't heard a word about any of this? "Dad and Mr. Williams got together with the judge, they moved the trial to San Antonio. I had to testify for a day; it was almost as bad as when Brian..." She stopped talking and swallowed. She looked at me. "At first, I told myself it was like the other times I'd been with Brian; I mean, it wasn't like the first time we'd had sex. Then I realized it wasn't the same. I tried to put it behind me; I tried to pretend it was no big deal. But it was a big deal. Pammie was..." she paused and looked up at me, "really awesome. I don't know if I could have done it without Pammie, without Mom. Even Dad helped. But that's all who know. I can't imagine how horrid it would be not to have a friend, not to have family... I didn't get pregnant; I can't imagine that either." I kissed her forehead. "Well, like I said, I volunteered to be a friend." The hug was, if anything tighter; I took my hand off her breast, hugged her back. Wanda looked at me, grinned wanly. "You know, a while ago you told me why you wanted to play baseball. Because you were better than everyone else. Davey, you are." She hugged me one more time, stood up. "Thank you, brother." I wasn't sure why, but I dozed off, falling into a dreamless sleep. I felt the couch move; I woke up, thinking Wanda had come back. Instead it was Mom. "Wanda said she told you about what happened to her." Well, Mom wasn't wasting time. "Yes. Did she say why?" Mom furrowed her brow. "She said she wanted you to know because of..." Sex, I gathered, with my sister. I shook my head. "I asked her what being raped was like; I had no idea... I swear." "And why would you ask that?" My mom isn't stupid; she knew I hadn't hatched the idea without a reason. I lifted my chin and shook my head. "Funny about that," Mom said quietly. "That's pretty much what Wanda said, just now. I thought the two of you spent the day..." her voice trailed away into silence. Again I shook my head. "We didn't. Not even once." She looked away; her face contorted with pain. Oh no! Not Mom! Not possible! Did guys do it to every girl? That was so nauseating! Disgusting! Never me! Not ever me! Her face controlled again she spoke, "When Wanda was attacked; I died. You think you know how you'll react, but reality comes up and hits you in the face. I twisted up inside; I think in some ways, it was easier for Wanda." "I don't think the word easy applies," I said. Again, I was unprepared for when she leaned down, kissed my forehead. "Well said, Davey, well said! So easy to forget when you're crying in your own beer and feeling sorry for yourself!" She got up, looked down at me. "Wanda's not hungry, I don't think I have much of an appetite; either fix it yourself or you and your dad can go out and get a bite for dinner." She vanished. Later Dad came in, gestured to me. "Let's go out." I was silent as he drove us to a steakhouse on the outskirts of town. The owner appeared, fawning over Dad, giving us a good table; almost instantly Dad had a wine glass in front of him and I had a tea glass. A huge mound of some really good onion rings appeared at the same time. "Growing up, Davey, I expect you're learning, isn't all that it's cracked up to be." "No, sir," I told him. "Not at all like I expected." "Talk to me about this morning." I lifted my chin. "I was asked not to. I'm not going to. Doctor Jacoby gave me a physical; she'll have the paperwork ready by Friday. I need, she said, to go back for a few more tests she couldn't work in today. There were a couple of emergencies and she was running way behind." "People work for me, Davey." "I know." "You don't work for me; so you have no idea what Rule Number One is." I laughed. "No surprises." He laughed too. "Oh, you know that?" "Dad, everyone in town knows Rule One." "So, it will come as no surprise that the judge, the police chief, even Dr. Jacoby, all whisper interesting tidbits in my ear. Not to mention every manager at the plant talks to me." "Do you know Emily Watson's phone number?" I asked. He smiled, slid a piece of paper toward me. "Rule two." I quoted it. "Make sure of the details." He nodded. "The name is Juan Luis Pena; he had an accomplice but the accomplice chickened out. Mr. Pena is in jail, no bail. Mr. Pena is wanted in three other jurisdictions for similar offenses. Mexico says that they also want him. It will be a tug of war. "In any case, he's not going anywhere, not for a very long time," Dad finished. "Leaving out the damage he's already done." "Her mother works in the office, her parents are separated, and her father works out at the air base. I'll make sure the i's are dotted, the t's crossed, Davey. There will be no slip-ups." I met his eyes. "That's saying she has to get over it." "It's the only way to go on, Davey. The world has bumps in the road; sometimes we trip on them. Sometimes we crash and burn. You can either get up and continue on, or just burn. I hope your friend doesn't do that." "She has no friends; I just know her a little from school." Dad looked at me, sniffed. "Pretty, is she?" I felt myself start to slip out of control, a red raging fire in my brain. "I'd do the same for a dog." "But she's not a dog, is she? She's cute," Dad went on. "She's about as different from Wanda as a girl can be," I told him. Dad hoisted his wine glass at me. "Wanda has a true fan in her brother, doesn't she?" I was furiously angry. "I wouldn't kick her out of bed." He laughed, shaking his head. "At your age, you wouldn't kick a dog out of bed, Davey. Relax, son! Cool off! "No matter what you think, I'm not your enemy, nor is your Mom or Wanda. We are all, Davey, rooting for you. Because, if nothing else over the years, I've learned you are principled, persistent. Brave." He waved the wine glass around; not the restaurant I thought, but the town. "There are exactly two people in the plant who stand up to me, Mick Gallagher, the union rep and Tomas Gonzales, my superintendent. Mick has backbone because if he faded, his membership would have him out of office in a special election in three weeks. Tomas, because he understands that I'm not perfect. "You, Davey, you stand up to me. Your mom does rarely, Wanda hardly ever; hardly anyone has the backbone to do it. You do. Trust me, I have no intention of ever giving you an inch. When you buck me, you're in for a fight; from day one, to the day one of us kicks off this mortal coil. You beat me and you've beat me in a standup fight." My life flashed in front of my eyes. He never had backed off; we'd gone at it hot and heavy, way too often. I'd had to retreat, sometimes. So had he. There was a point where neither of us would go. Dad put his elbow on the table, holding up his hand. "Arm wrestle me, Davey." I met his eyes, shrugged. I put my hand in his, he nodded and I tried. A second later my wrist cracked on the table. "Do you know why I won, just now?" "You're stronger than I am," I said, not quite wanting to hit my forehead and say, "Like duh!" He shook his head. "Because first I cheated, and because even though you are stronger than I would have thought, you have no stamina." "This isn't a surprise," I told him. He laughed, "I don't cheat at everything." I flushed; well, that's what I'd said; I'd meant it one way, he'd taken it another. "No, what I meant was I can show you how to cheat, too." "Thanks," I said, "I'll pass." "How about teaching you a parlor trick? The man who showed me how to do this called it that. A parlor trick." I shook my head, but he went on. "Visualize you and me, just like now, only lying down on the floor. Arm wrestling." "Okay," I said, not having a clue what his point was. What any of this had to do with girls being raped? "You have that picture in your mind?" "Yes," I told him. I was almost, but not quite, surly. "Okay, now imagine me as a tree. A long trunk, about six feet long. About two feet in diameter. A branch off to one side. That's this." He wiggled his hand. "Got that?" I shrugged. "Yes." "Consider, Davey, how hard it would be to move a tree trunk, with just one badly placed limb to get a grip on. Contemplate a solid tree, trying to move it like that." I had to admit, put like that I'd not budge it. "No leverage." I said after a second. "Exactly right. The way I win every g'damned arm wrestling match I'm in? It's because I lock every muscle and joint and become one great big log. It makes for good labor relations if you can beat them all in something physical." "You said you cheat." "Well, yes. Cheating is a two edged sword, Davey. Never do it if the other side might figure it out. Never cheat if you're going to win anyway. Never cheat if it matters in the big scheme of things whether you win or lose." He waved at his arm. "If the guys at the plant find out, you know what? Half of them wouldn't think it was cheating and the other half wouldn't think it works. And whether or not I can beat one or all of them arm-wrestling has nothing to do with my ability to run the plant. "A baby, Davey, eats, sleeps and excretes. It wants to be picked up and cuddled. That about sums up a baby. As a child grows, so does his or her mind. They learn to talk, express themselves; they learn how to move around. Mom and Dad, to a lesser extent siblings, dominate their universe. "You get to be about six and you're aware of other people in the universe, you get your first taste of school. Slowly, gradually, imperceptibly, horizons expand, until you can look around you. You see the world, the sky, the stars. You start dreaming about things, about yourself." He laughed. "Then along comes puberty. Quite suddenly sex appears, an insatiable itch. At first, you'll do anything to scratch that itch, usually unsuccessfully. Some though, are luckier or cleverer than others. Masturbation is okay, but to have an actual partner..." He grinned at me. "Well, now you know the difference." I nodded. There really was no comparison. "And sex means there's someone else in your life. Up until then a growing person has rules and tasks mandated by parents, teachers, and other adults. By puberty that's begun to chafe; those hormones are a worse taskmaster than any parent or teacher. Civilized people, Davey, learn to deal the right way with those hormones. "Because the only way you can get and keep a partner is to pay attention to what they want. You have to scratch their itch as much as they scratch yours." His smile increased. "And that's when you start moving heaven and earth; changing the world if need be. "That said, Davey, there are bent, broken and twisted people out there. They are clueless and frequently violent; a million different names that add up to something less than human. There are some who devote their lives to protecting the rest of us from those people, but as capable as many of our protectors are, they can't be everywhere all the time. "Shit happens. To Wanda, to Emily -- even in our corner of the world that we wish, hope and pray is safe. It happens. "When it does happen, Davey, it's up to those of us nearby to lend a hand, to shore up those who've felt the icy winds of the blackness that is out there." He stopped, laughed. "Bet you never thought I could be poetic?" "A lot of surprises." "About as much as having Coach Wells call me up and tell me that you're the best prospect he's seen in years." "That's different. The baseball team -- most of them weren't there and the half that were, were pretty puny. And they weren't trying very hard." "Well, do your best. Do your best with Emily and Wanda. With anyone else you can help." I nodded. "I want to." "Good." <1st attachment end> ----- ASSM Moderation System Notice------ Notice: This post has been modified from its original format.
