Chapter
ten: Dolly’s Little Half Brother:
In
the late afternoon, Murdoc came by Dolly’s flat and rang the bell. A
young
boy about eleven years of age answered the door. He had blond hair,
brown
eyes, and brown freckles on his face. He looked at Murds and Murds
looked
at him. “Yes?” the boy asked with lackluster. “Is Dolly Biel in?” Murds
asked coldly. “No!” the boy answered quickly. Then he slammed the door
in Murds’ face. The bassist turned as if he was leaving, but as he was
the kid was gone, Murdoc went to the back way.
Murds
knocked on the other door. Dolly answered it. “What took ya?” she asked
impatiently. Murdoc explained the story. “Oh. That’s Joey. He’s my
little
half bro. Always chasing guys away from me.” Dolly replied. Then she
secretly
let Murds in.
A
few minutes later, Joey heard strange mushy sounds from Dolly’s
bedroom.
“Curses! I thought I rid of him!” he thought. He wanted to humiliate
them
by going in there, but he didn’t, he couldn’t. Instead, he picked up
his
notebook, ripped out a page, wrote where he was, and left the flat.
