As you watched Jen approach the glass jar where you were being held captive, you couldn't help but look down at the floor in shame, realizing that these two women were viewing you as nothing more than a luxury item, an accessory so exclusive it had a mind of it's own. You didn't dare look upwards, knowing that you might burst into tears if you made eye contact with either of these people whom you were simply merchandise to. Nothing could stop you from hearing them though, and Jen's attempt to get you sold.
"I'm telling you, this one is special, that's for sure! He's not like those other ones I've sold in the past, this one is straight off the streets.
