Seamas' Little Sis
Seamas was nervous, quite understandably.
Two nights before, his mother had caught he and his little sister Brigid fighting. After pulling them apart, and giving them both a sound warming, she decided to implement a new system which would teach the siblings respect for one another. It went along the lines that whichever of them broke a rule would be handed over to their sibling for punishment in whatever way they saw fit. Certainly, a crackpot idea, but Seamas had no way out of it...
And just yesterday, it had been revealed to his mother via phonecall that he'd not completed a single piece of homework since the beginning of the quarter at school... Needless to say, the seventeen-year-old didn't like the idea of being handed over to his fourteen-year-old freshman sister.
Before school began that day, Brigid had told her older brother to meet her at the flagpole after school... and it was to this dreadful spot that Seamas now dragged himself... uncertain, and yet certain at the same time, of what was going to happen...
