Cat in tree…

After our rest stop at Mr. T.’s, Jason and I walked home. By then, Jason was practically bursting at the seams.

“Too bad you missed that supergirl! She was awesome!” He was shaking his head in amazement.

I nodded. “I’m sure she was…but why are you so happy about it?”

Jason stopped walking and looked at me. “I thought you knew me better than anybody.”

“I thought so too,” I said. I stopped to think for a moment. My eyes popped. “Oh, you’re happy that Starlight City has a superhero just like in the comics!” I replied quickly.

Jason grinned. “Yep! It’s so good! The way she took care of those three Hanson Brothers like that. Wow! My dad tells me those Hansons are nasty dudes.”

“Can’t imagine your dad saying, dudes,” I said in return.

Jason shook his head. “Well no, not in those exact words. But they are bad guys! Bad to the bone, he says. He also says they’re not to be messed with. According to him, they aren't very bright, but that makes them even more dangerous.”

“Yeah, I can see that,” I nodded in agreement. That was something that had stood out clearly.

“But here’s the amazing thing. This girl, this super strong girl, took them out like they were nothing. And she ripped the doors off the car like they were toy doors.”

“Well remember, Wendi thinks this is all some sort of reality show trick or a commercial.” I looked at him, trying to be convincing.

Jason shook his head again. “Nope. No way my dad would be involved with anything like that. This girl is legit!” He looked up into space. “I wonder if she has a boyfriend?”

I nudged him (extra gently) to move forward. “Come on, let’s get home.”

“Yeah okay,” he said, moving again. “Why would a girl like that ever be interested in me anyhow?”

“Because you’re smart and caring!” I answered sincerely.

He smiled at me. “Thanks. But smart and caring isn’t cool. How about way, way handsome?”

I shrugged. “You’re okay. Though you may want to work on your modesty some,” I teased.

Before Jason could say another word, I heard a muffled sobbing from across the street. Turning towards the sound, I saw our little neighbor, a cute blond seven-year-old, named Felipe, sitting on his porch steps crying. I pointed him out to Jason.
