BY THE TIME Amir arrived, I was pacing the sidewalk, debating whether to call on Dora and Boots. Charge the middle schoolers with a posse of my own, care of 1-888-KICK-BUTT. No, this was my burden. This was family business.

Outfit-wise, I’d gone full Tyler Durden. Like I’d come out of the Fight Club hole. The activist geek was out in the open now: black Doc Martens, matching black jeans, black T-shirt, thick eyeliner.

In other words, I didn’t look like myself. And Amir knew it.

Windows down, car in park, he flashed me a sad smile. Even though he’d agreed to pick me up, I hadn’t shared the full plan. The plan to find the kids who’d terrorized my sisters; scare the living daylights out of them; void their Instagram points with some points of my own. Mutual Edward Norton fetish aside, I could tell that Amir wasn’t digging my vibe.

Whatever. I was pumped and ready to go.

“You’re only going to talk to them, right? Nothing crazy?”

Talk? Nothing crazy? Did he even hear himself? I had every right to go crazy on those obnoxious little twerps. Then again, Amir was Mr. Kareem. He couldn’t help himself…so I bit my lip and nodded. “Of course,” I said, clicking my seatbelt.

Amir bit his nails. I could tell he was thinking something he didn’t have the nerve to share.

“What?” I groaned.

“Nothing.” He slid the gear shift into drive. “It’s just…getting soft isn’t the worst thing.”
