“By the time we get to the front door, we’re both exhausted.
Sitting down in the kitchen, we open up a box of chocolate-chip cookies.
Brenda says, “I’m so excited. Today, this guy that I’ve had a secret crush on asked me out.”
“What’s his name? What’s he like?” I ask.
“His name is Ken, and he’s really nice,” she says.
“A real Ken doll.” I giggle.
She pretends to bop me with the box of cookies. “He’s cute and smart. He likes a lot of the things that I like. He’s different in some ways, though. He dresses differently.”
It makes me wonder what it means to Brenda when she says someone dresses differently. I hope that I meet this guy sometime.
“Brenda, I have a question.” I smile at her.
“Yes?” She puts a cookie in her mouth.
“Do you think that you’re ever going to cook for him?”
She laughs. “Are you trying to tell me that’s not a good idea?”
I grin. “Maybe you should wait a couple of years until you feed him any of your Tuna Fish Delish.”
