zack was playing an ancient strategy game with his friend, ben. sarah packed me and their dog, tabitha - a great big monster of black fur and a drippy pink tongue - into the car and took us all to a place that serves coffee. they called it 'grendel's'. i watched the guys play this game and kept my eye on tabitha. she seemed content with her bone and greeting the people who walked by on the sidewalk.
sarah went inside for a while. she came out later with a little girl named sophia. sophia looked to be about three years old and wanted to pet tabitha. i hid in the bag. i'm a little skittish around children. they are very unpredictable.
after they all finished their coffee and their game, we all went to the house where ben lives. ben cooked dinner while zack and sarah played with tabitha outside. then zack went upstairs and there was much loud talking and screaming and music. they called it video games. then they ate dinner.
it was dark by then time we left, so i didn't notice at first that tabitha wasn't with us. then ben got in our car. i knew an adventure was in the works.
we went to a place called 'belmont'.
here, i had my first bike ride..
there was the avalon theater. but it didn't have the right movie.
then there was the pardox cafe. but it didn't have any 'beer'.
(this is the guy who served us at the paradox..)
and this is our friend ben at the paradox..
so we went to a place called 'hawthorne'.
(to be continued..)
