Julio squinted. “What’s in it? Pepper?”

“Ants.”

Julio walked away, shaking his head. “I’m outta here.”

“I want it,” I said, snapping the lollipop out of Benny’s hand. I read the label on the clear plastic wrapper. “ ‘Antlix Lollipop.’ Cool.”

I stuck it in my pocket.

“I saw your dad in Las Vegas,” Benny said as the crowd broke up.

I froze. “What? What did you say?”

“Your dad. I saw his show in Las Vegas.”

My mind jumped all over the place. No one had ever said anything like that to me before. “No you didn’t, Benny. You’re making that up. Somebody just told you about him.”

My dad was in Las Vegas, but still …

Benny shrugged. “Think what you want.”

“I will,” I said.

What a liar. How could he say that to somebody whose dad left them?

Just wasn’t right.

Benny headed back toward the classroom.

I scowled at him. He was so full of made-up stuff he couldn’t even tell the truth about one thing. Dumb weird weirdo.

As Benny passed the tree where Tito, Bozo, and Frankie Diamond were lounging, Tito picked up a pebble and threw it at him.

The pebble hit Benny in the back.

“Hey, Kung Fu! Come back here! You and me can do some Jackie Chan!”

Benny kept on walking.

“Buuuk-buk-buk,” Tito cackled, flapping chicken-wing arms.
