Lisa Ruiz looked down at a blank piece of paper. After a moment of though, she threw a wordball onto it.
Milk
Bread
Eggs
Her husband, Hector Ruiz, leaned over her shoulder and added another wordball:
Hecese
"'hecese'? That's not word," Lisa looking confused.
Hector laughed, "Why don't you use your powers on it?"
"Oh! Yeah!" Lisa quickly unscrambled the word.
"'cheese', that makes more sense." she giggled.
"How's Ella doing in school?" Hector asked.
Ella was their six-year-old daughter, who was attending public school.
"She's doing fine," Lisa replied, "she keeps asking when she'll get her word powers. It's because of Eric, I think. You remember Eric, don't you? He's Annie's little boy."
"Oh, yes, Annie Scrambler's son, what powers does he have?"
"The same as his mother's, except he snaps his fingers. But he's nothing like his mother, Eric's the sweetest thing! It's amazing," said his wife.
"I saw Francine and her daughter yesterday," Lisa said after a moment.
"Really?"
"Yeah, she came to our door selling Girl Spout cookies. Alyssa Ann March is her name and, oh my goodness, she looks just like her mother! I opened the door and she said: 'Hi, My name is Alyssa Ann March, and I'm selling Girl Sprout cookies!'"
"Did you buy any?"
"Yes, I bought one box,"
"Francine's daughter selling Girl Sprout cookies."
"And Annie's a fashion designer."
"What about Danny Rebus?" Hector asked.
"Hmm," Lisa said, thinking, "I think he just got engaged."
"Engaged!? To who?"
"Do you remember Lottie , from Amelia Earhart High School?"
"Lottie ?!"
"Yeah. But I don't think we'll be invited to the wedding, though."
"What? Why?"
"I didn't invite him to my sweet 16 party." Lisa paused, "It was an all-girl sleep over."
Hector just laughed.
