I sat quietly on the couch facing the TV. I was smashed against the side, wanting to be as far away as possible from the man.

“You hungry?” he asked me, breaking the silence between us.

“Hey, I’m Ford.” He said, walking down the stairs.

“Isn’t that the name of a car company?” I asked him, leaning over the couch to see him.

“But it’s a very manly name.” He responded. “It’s a manly car company.”

“A WHAT?!?!” I cried, shocked.

“A witch. You know, the spells, potions, zooming-around-on-a-broomstick witch.” Ford joked.
