After work, I went to my grandma's house. Before I'd even finished changing out of my work clothes, my friend Gary showed up at the door. Oddly, there were two young girls with him on the porch. I'd say they were about five and four. I look farther out and realized they were his cousin Kathren's daughters. She was down at the foot of the steps with her younger son in a stroller. After I finished getting changed, I came out and sat on the porch for a few minutes and talked to Gary. I noticed that Kathren's older daughter was wearing a Powerpuff girls t-shirt! When I saw a Powerpuff girls keychain just like mine, I asked Kathy if "we had some Powerpuff girls fans here" and indicated her daughters. When she confirmed it, I said I had some stuff to get and went to my car. I gave them the extra Powerpuff girls stuff I'd been carrying around in my car.
After a few more minutes, the older girl whispered in Gary's ear, asking if I wanted to go to the park with them. So, we all went to the park. I had fun at the park. I helped cute little girls get on monkey bars and pushed them on swings. I was feeling like a parent, worrying about girls falling and my pushing them too hard on the swings. On the way back from the park, the younger girl wouldn't quit running way ahead of us, so I ran really fast, like my very fastest, passed her, grabbed her, and carried her until we were almost back to Gary's apartment. I held her hand to cross the street too. I felt like a good person that day. |
