Jeff struggle to type into the Chronivac. He decided he needed a maid to use him to clean his room. He
described the French maid uniform he wanted the maid to wear. He just sort of assumed that the radial sweep on
the Chronivac pick Mary, Sue or Ellen from one of the neighboring houses. He didn't care which one.
The vacuum hose whirred and Jeff closed his eyes, and waited for the maid to come.
Suddenly, he felt a hand grip his throat, and then grab his hose. He became aware of the person attaching a
wand to his hose and lifting up his body to vacuum the cobwebs in the corner of his room. It felt so good. But
he had to laugh. The person in the French maid costume with the short black skirt with frilly apron wasn't Sue,
Ellen or Mary. It was Mary's jock boyfriend Sebastian - who insisted everyone call him Seb, and was secretly
called that Bastard Bastian. Seb lifted Jeff's bed with one hand, and sucked out dust bunnies that had been
there since he moved the bed next to the window when he was 12. Finally, when Seb had vacuumed the floor, walls
, ceiling and drapes, Seb turned off the vacuum and unplugged Jeff. He coiled the power cord around Jeff's
handle and rolled him into the corner of the room. Then he took the laundry basket he had filled with Jeff's
dirty clothes in one arm, and picked up Jeff with the other hand and headed down to the laundry porch. He put
Jeff's clothing in the washing machine. Then he spread newspaper on the floor, and unzipped Jeff's bag. Seb
reached inside Jeff's bag and emptied out all the dirt, dust, and debris that stretched Jeff's insides.
