1 The Van

Brian’s neighbor knocked on his door one morning. He answered it a little sleepily, but when he saw who it was, he straighten up a little and met the man’s eye.

“Good morning, sir.” Brian said.

“Good morning, Brian.” Brad replied, smiling. “I’m moving, and I though I might sell you my van before I go. I know how much you admire it.”

“Oh.” said Brian, surprised. “Would you like to come in?”

“Thanks, that would be great.” Brad said. “Is that coffee I smell?”

“Sure is.” Brian opened the screen door and escorted the man into the kitchen, sitting him at the table.

“Just black is fine.” Brad said, after Brian fetched a mug from the cupboard. Brian poured the coffee, handed the mug over, then took the seat across. “Thanks.”

“So, how much do you want for the van?” Brian asked. “Sir.” He added, a moment later, at Brad’s look.

“One dollar bill.” Brad told him. “Payable today.”

Brian looked at him, astonished. The paint job was worth at least four grand, easy! It was a rolling chick magnet, as evidenced by the bevy of beauties that Brad escorted into house from it every day. Some of the girls were even friends of his from school.

“There’s a catch.” Brad said.

Brian’s heart fell. He’d known it was too good to be true, and it reflected in his face, apparently, because Brad chuckled.

“Don’t look so glum, chum. You haven’t heard what the catch it yet.”

“What do I have to do, sir?” Brian asked, hesitantly.

“You? You don’t have to do anything.” Brad said. “What you choose to do… that’s a different matter altogether.”

“What do you mean, sir?” Brian asked, looking confused.

“Here’s the catch.” Brad said. “Every female who gets in that van becomes obedient and submissive, whether she wants it or not. Trust me, almost all of them do, and the ones that don’t find themselves enjoying it anyway.” He looked at the boy with a serious expression. “And that van calls to them, boy. One a week is going to find her way in there, and there’s nothing you can do about it. Sometimes, they come in pairs.”

“Obedient and submissive, sir?” Brian asked. “Could could clarify that?”

“Sexually. They will gladly do anything you tell them to do. The effect lasts for a day or so after they get out of the van, too.” Brad grinned. “It’s best not to take too many of them in there.
