Making Choices

    by: PenSlayer5 Author IconMail Icon
As Debbie left the now tiny couple and their home in her rearview, she began to think about who else in the neighborhood she could have a little fun with. Pun definitely intended. All around her were people she'd either known for years or just saw in passing. So many options.

Once she reached the sidewalk, she took a look down the block and spied Libby Fullman on her pink rollerblades. She was a friend of her daughter Lisa and liked to skate around the whole neighborhood. One time she even tried to grind her car which did not go over very well.

The dirty blonde crashed hard and wound up denting the passenger side door with her body. The white-hot anger that spiked through Debbie that day was only kept at bay by the fact that the girl's parents apologized on her behalf and offered to pay for the damages outside of court. Libby still hadn't apologized herself and that irked her greatly.

Debbie then set her sights on Mr. and Ms. Little of the neighborhood watch. They lived right across the street from the Fullman family and made it their personal mission to keep their precious neighborhood safe from all threats both foreign and domestic.

They middle-aged couple looked so ridiculous decked out in their camouflage and black t-shirts that had the title: Neighborhood Watch printed across in bold white text. One even wore barrettes and while the other wore an army helmet. Debbie couldn't make this up.

Their intensions were pure, but they were also the most annoying people to be around. They were constantly on patrol and getting into other people's business. It was even worse at night when they would hide in the bushes and then pop out, only to shine a light in your face. They weren't soldiers or cops damn it!

Another person that came to mind was Lisa's boyfriend Brendan who liked to visit whenever her husband Steve was out. The boy was never there when he was because her eldest daughter knew her father would have a fit about keeping her boyfriend a secret from him. Also, he was an overprotective mother hen.

Debbie only knew about him because Nicole let it slip one night when they went out to the movies. She got to meet him soon afterward and while he didn't seem like a bad kid, he wasn't exactly an interesting one eighter. Lisa could have done so much better.

Well, her husband should be out at work by now which meant the boy might come over for a visit. If so, then she could have her own fun with him. Lisa shouldn't have picked someone who's as bland as a box of white rice. At least the shrink ray would keep things interesting.

Who should she go after next?
