By now, there are only a few kids left who haven’t been tagged, including Cynthia, Heather, and Kry. But all of a sudden Jared and Stanley are standing with them, getting ready to run.

Oh. Now they want to play.

TUG-OF-WAR

“No fair,” Kevin shouts to Jared and Stanley. He is still mad about them hogging the kick balls, I guess. “You can’t start playing now, you guys. It’s too late.”

“That’s right, you can’t,” I say, backing Kevin up. “Kids have already been tagged. You have to wait for the next game.”

“Try and stop us, losers,” Jared yells back. “We can play if we want to!”

“Yeah,” Cynthia calls out, kissing up to Jared for no reason—except to be mean to me, maybe. “You’re not the boss of the world, EllRay Jakes.”

Like I want to be!

And BOOM. The kids who are left—and Jared and Stanley and his freckles—are running across the playground, trying to escape the octopus arms reaching out to tag them.

Stanley is the first one tagged, but Jared is zigzagging back and forth like a champion football player. He’s pretty far away from me, though.
