“You probably shouldn’t—” Bodhi pauses when I pop the last of the cookie in my mouth, then sighs as he finishes what he was saying. “—eat the whole thing. Well, what’s done is done. Everyone, bow your heads and pray.”
“Come on, I’m sure it will be fine.” I laugh, grabbing another cookie when no one is looking, because these things arereallydelicious. “Danny finally ate one of the brownies you dropped off the other day, and she was fine. She ate like ten bowls of cereal and didn’t stop talking for two hours, but other than that, she painted like normal, made dinner like normal, and we put together Legos and watched a movie like normal. She was calm and happy. I want to be calm and happy.”

“I’m fine.”

“How are youfeeling there, buddy?”
“Please take me to the emergency room. Oooh, Cheetos! Hey, where are my pants? Pants is a funny word….”
