(Jon's not in a place to drive the story so We'll go back, back years to the dig {I'm ignoring the year of the dig in the last post})
Jon ran out the door as the bell rang ending Jon's stint in second grade. Today was the start of summer break and more importently Grampa Greg was going to take Jon along on a real life dig in South America. Jon ran straight into his mom's mini-van. It seemed like forever untill Zoe came out. She was walking slowly and had her favorit farie doll in towe.
"Jeez Zoe why'd you take so long?" Jon asked
"I don't want to leave my friends in kindergarden" Little Zoe said
"Like who, you never have anyone over. I bet your friends are imaginery no, Athena and Xina are probably class pets" Jon said
"Are not there real, real people" Zoe said defencively.
"Zoes' friends are animals, Zoes' friends are animals"
"My friends are not aminals"
"Jon stop picking on your sister" there mom Linda comanded.
The remainder of the trip home was uneventful. They got home and Linda sent the babysitter watching baby Mikey, Tara McMillan, home. Jon ran up to his room and checked to see if he packed everything he wanted to bring. He finished going over everything as his Grampa arived.
"Hi Gwampa" Zoe said exited.
"Hi Zoe, how's my favorit little girl doing?" Grampa Greg said.
"I'm good Gwampa, and my farie Paula is good too"
"I got you something Zoe" Greg said pulling a book out of his duffle bag.
"What is it, what is it?" Zoe asked egerly
"It's a book about Faries, it's called The Book of Midevil Faries"
"Hi grampa" Jon said comeing down with a full backpack and a duffle bag.
"We'd better get going dear" Greg said
Linda hugged Jon "I'm gonna miss you"
"Bye bye Gwampa, Jon you don't have to come back" Zoe said
"Zoe" Linda said angerd "Don't say things like that"
"I'll miss you to squirt" Jon said as Zoe hugged him goodbye
