"Sure." Jeanie said.
"Do you want to come, Kate?" I asked.
Kate shook her head. "I'm going to clean up a bit more."
"Okay."
Jeanie and I left. I showed her my car, and she was very impressed.
"It's just a beater." I said as we zipped along the highway.
"Sooo fast." She muttered, nose pressed against the window.
When we reached the grocery store, she looked around at everything with wide eyes. I grabbed her sleeve to keep her from wandering off, but she took my hand instead.
She was grinning like a maniac, something that would no longer exist until the next generation, by the time we reached the checkout stand.
The middle aged lady at the stand smiled at us cozily. She had tepid brown hair. "Aren't you two cute." She commented.
I dropped Jeanie's hand like a firebrand, my ears feeling like firebrands themselves.
Jeanie frowned, and pointedly took my hand again. She stuck out her tongue at me. "Poo-poo to you too."
I laughed, paying the confused register clerk and we walked away with the eggs.
