Making Progress

The holidays ended. Marc was taking down his sukkah. He and Alana decided to live in it during Sukkot. He has a friend who lives in his year round. Things went fine. The weather was great and there were no attacks from Jay. All’s been quiet.
Anat just got an email from child’s services. They want her to do a Zoom interview to talk about her getting Jerry. She was so excited. She spoke to Ann, who briefed her on how to handle it. Anat did some Googling and felt she’d be ready. She was counting the days. She had 8 to go. She hoped things stayed quiet.

Jerry was doing as well as he could be doing in the children’s shelter. His mom was still in prison. His dad should be. But he escaped twice.

Anat figured she’d have her hair done the night before. It is amazing what the last few months have done to her. She went from being a total loner, who never bathed and started fights with people and hacked into various events to cause disruption. All of a sudden she cleaned herself up. Imagine if Jerry was never left behind in the park and she never rescued him?

Who knows what havoc she’d yield. Of course, she is still capable of total darkness. But for the time being, chose only to use it when needed and to help.
Tzipora was almost due. Alana was planning the baby shower. As usual, Alana was depressed she wasn’t married or having a baby. But she knew it wasn’t in the plan. Strange enough Alana would even plan Anat’s shower if she got Jerry. She hoped she did. She watched an amazing change.

Tzipora still liked Alana. But was faithful to soon to be dad, Eran. Jen’s baby was getting bigger. She also knew what was going on with Anat. She felt good. She knew she was mean to her in camp. But Anat was a strange bird before she got there and left even stranger.

Anat’s needed recommendations to get Jerry. Ann wrote an amazing letter. That helped seal the deal for the interview. Anat did get one from her boss. She is an amazing worker. Her office does think she’s bizarre. But she was the one you could count on. She was there Mariano. But Anat would likely enter to Bauhaus and not Metallica. Funny, Alana would, too. For all the fighting those two did they are very similar people.

Meanwhile, Jay was in Macombs Damn park training on the outdoor gym. He liked to train on the grounds of the old Yankee Stadium.

He was all alone. He was getting ready for something.
