Jerry and Benjamin

Alana was at work. Things were calm. She needed calm. Marc was in his office. The same headhunter who called and blew him off when he returned her call reached out to him. Marc laughed. She is so pathetic. She wants to get battered with more pomegranates. He deleted her voicemail and went back to his document. Marc was not a fan of headhunters, other HR people, real estate, or legal folks. Never was. Marc likely never will be.

Meanwhile, Anat was monitoring the funds she managed. The market was tanking. That’s the trend these days. The school was about to let out. Jerry and Benjamin were gonna play. It is incredible how good friends they are. Anat still has in the back of her mind how Jen attacked her when she was a little kid in summer camp. It was a harrowing moment. She still can’t believe she let it all pass, and now her kid is best friends with Jen’s child. It doesn’t matter. Benjamin stood no chance against Jerry if he tried to follow in his mom’s footsteps and attack Jerry. Jerry has superpowers. Benjamin is just a sweet kid.

The two kids were hanging out in Central Park. No, they were not by themselves. Benjamin’s dad, Jake, was there, and his eyes were wide open to ensure the kids were OK. The only mess they got into was the ice cream cones he bought them. Their pants enjoyed it more than they did.
The kids were throwing a Frisbee. The Frisbee was less light than a 165G. They will get to that when they are tweens. Some teenager knocked down their flying disc. The kids thought nothing of it. Jake thought it was an accident. The teen jumped on it and wouldn’t let them have it back. Benjamin ran to his dad. Jake got up from his bench and started to walk over. He was a little concerned. Jen filled him in about Jerry. He wanted things to stay calm.

Jake saw the teenager flat on the ground. Olives were all over him. Jerry was laughing and telling the big kid how, at this point, he was the big kid. Jake asked Jerry to walk away. Being a good kid, Jerry did. Of course, as he did, he fired olives all over the silly teen.
