Well, Denise called me later this week to make…
““Well, Denise called me later this week to make arrangements for the trip. She told me about the time change,” Mom said. “Yes, son. We’ve known something was wrong ever since Mr. Jenkins told us that you were sneaking over to work with him on the weekends,” my Dad said. “He also told us about the lie you told him about burning the skin off of his Zombie horse. And, he even told us that you lied about Ms. Ursula’s clown, and her broken window.” “Really? You knew about all that? But, how come you didn’t say anything?” “Well, Zombie. We talked it over with Mr. Jenkins and we figured that you needed to sort out those situations for yourself,” my Mom said. “And we believed in you.” “Yes, son,” my Dad said. “We knew that you would eventually choose the right course. And eventually, you did.” Wow… My parents are so cool. Man, even in the middle of a Zombie Apocalypse, I just realized that I am the luckiest Zombie in the whole world. Oh no! Mr. Jenkins!!! “Mom, Dad… Did Mr. Jenkins make it?” “Sort””
