" Brian. How do you handle it? Knowing whats happening, what may happen to Fox? You know, I was nineteen when Sage was born. In the language of a man settling in for a spell, he propped one work-booted foot on his knee. Jo was eighteen. Couple of kids who thought we knew it all, had it all covered. Then, you have a kid of your own, and the whole world shifts. Theres a part of me thats been worried for thirty-three years now. He smiled as he said it. I guess theres just more parts of me worried when it comes to Fox. And truth? It pisses me off that he had his childhood, his innocence stolen from him. He came home that day, his tenth birthday, and he was never a little boy, not in the same way, again. Brian O'Dell The Hollow "
