Billy backed away from the window.
He leaned against the wall of the school, breathing hard.
Prissy.
Prissy and Mr. Phillips.
They were...they were...
What should he do?
Should he knock on the door?
He wanted to burst the door down and tell Mr. Phillips to get off his sister.
Prissy didn't look as if she was being attacked in any way...she looked blissfully happy.
No, Billy thought. He's taking advantage of her. She...she doesn't know what she's doing.
He stayed still a moment, his mind reeling, trying to think of what to do.
Finally he decided not to do anything right now. He needed time to figure this out. He took a deep breath and started for home again.
What if it was true? What she had said...Anne...Fido...whatever.
No, he shook his head to himself. It couldn't be.
It was a kiss. A kiss wasn't intimate relations. A kiss was...just a kiss.
It was perfectly harmless, he decided.
But how long had this been going on? And...what had Anne seen that led her to believe it was more than a kiss?
If she'd seen them kissing, wouldn't she have just said they kissed? But she'd said they were having intimate relations. Had she seen more than a kiss?
...It wasn't possible.
