Meet Billy the "Dweeb"
Bill was small for his age. He looked like he was still fifteen even though he was nearly seventeen years old. Everybody picked on through his entire life. He was glad his family was moving to a new town again. It meant that for a few weeks he wouldn't get picked on. Both of his parents had recently retired from the military. Being military brat, Billy had gotten use to moving all over the country every few years. His father was able to get a full time job with the local government so this would probable be the last move for the family.
His uncle was a forceful man and he took pleasure in seeing his employees work for their promotions. He had extensive files on all his employees. He knew how many kids his employees had and what their ages were. He saw to it that his nephew wasn't left alone for the summer. Little Billy, is what his uncle calls him, was visiting his uncle one day when he over heard the conversation his uncle had with one of his employees.

"BUZZZZZ"
"Mr. Masters? Your four o clock is here"
"Thank you Sheila. Send him right in."
"Yes sir.”
“Did you want to see me Sir?"
"Yes Thomson. I understand that you have a son that is going to be in the 9th grade this year."
"Yes Sir. That's my son Dan."
"Good. My nephew is staying with me this summer. I need to keep him busy and out of my way. I want you to have your son to show him around town and keep his out of trouble. Understand?"
"But Sir? I'm sure my son Dan has other plans for the summer."
"If you want to get that promotion, you'll see that his plans include Billy."
"Yes Sir. I'll see to it right away Sir."
As Billy snuck quietly away from his uncle’s office he thought to himself. “Great! Now I’m going to have a baby sitter for the summer. So much for a quite summer at the beach away from everybody.”
