Eric smelled the impending kick.
“Touch that dog and I’ll flatten you!” His voice slammed the
chests of the two teenagers.
The Drake brothers stepped several feet away from Jerome and
Scruffy.“I know who you are,” Eric said. “I know where you live. The
cops have their eye on you. Get!”
Nick Drake grabbed Mack’s wrist. “I got a better idea. The
Newman sisters are getting out of school. We ought to be on Monk
Street.” Mack grinned. “I can picture them now. Short skirts, tight
jeans, you’re right.”
They started away from Eric and Jerome.
“How are things at the home?”
“Things good, Mr. Piper. Dawn and Claudia on duty today.”
Jerome lived in a community residence for the developmentally disabled.
“Dawn and Claudia nice, Mr. Piper.”
“In more ways than one.”
“Dawn is a nurse. Claudia used to be a secretary. Now she’s with
us.”
They heard a crash. Metal against metal. A garbage can had hit
the lamppost. Mack was facing Eric, middle finger raised.
