Ficlets

Remember?

‘Tom Cruise’ looked at as weirder than any of the other people around us. But when Rachel turned around to look at him, he signaled her to call him.

“WATCH IT, BUDDY !” Shade turned around and yelled. ‘Tom’ looked down and walked away.

“Yeah Shade!” Rachel gave him a high-five. “Thanks dude!”

“Yup.” he simply said, and turned to look boringly out at the world.

I turned up ‘I’m So Hood’ as we drove away. Within minutes, we were there.

Rachel waited till the end of the song before turning of the car. We all piled out, on to the front porch, and rang the doorbell.

This adorabley cutie opened the door. When he saw Rachel, he yelled, “Mommy!!” and ran to give her a hug.

Isn’t he awesome? Rachel mouthed to us. I nodded, and looked at the boy again.

“Nick, this is Aunt Heather, do you remember her?” Rachel asked and pointed to me.
