Dark In Here


A woman takes a lover during the day, while her husband is at work. Her
nine year old son comes home unexpectedly, so she puts her son in the
closet and shuts the door. Her husband also comes home, so she puts her
lover in the closet, with the little boy.

Boy - "Dark in here."
Man - "Yes, it is."
Boy - "I have a baseball."
Man - "That's nice."
Boy - "Want to buy it?"
Man - "No, thanks."
Boy - "My dad's outside."
Man - "Okay, how much?"
Boy - "$25.00"
Man - "Fine."

In the next few weeks, it happens again that the boy and the lover are
again in the closet together.

Boy - "Dark in here."
Man - "Yes, it is."
Boy - "I have a baseball mitt."
The lover, remembering the last time, asks the boy, "How much?"
Boy - "$75.00"
Man - "Fine."

A few days later, the father says to the boy, "Grab your glove. Let's
go outside and toss the baseball back and forth."

Boy - "I can't, I sold them."
Father - "How much did you sell them for?"
Boy - "$100.00"
Father - "That's terrible to overcharge your friends like that. That's
way more than those two things cost. I'm going to take you to
church and make you confess."

They go to church and the father makes the little boy sit in the
confessional booth and he closes the door.

Boy - "Dark in here."
Priest - "Don't start that shit again."
