Summary: Jun's just a girl, all pretty
and petite.
Notes: I was writing drabbles and thought to string
them together. The title is from the No Doubt song of the same name.

1. Not Quite
Jun squats and bends at the waist, tilting her sit-upon into the air as she peers into the space between the ground and the garbage bin. She sees the filthy bottoms of slippery little feet first; then a monkey-like face.
"Hi!" Jun says.
Something hard and stinky hurtles towards her face. She plants a hand on the trash strewn ground and hoists her body aloft, swinging out of the flying object's way. It hits the wall behind her with a fetid plop. It smells like rotten eggs.
"That's not nice!" Jun exclaims.
"I'm not nice," says the little boy under the bin.
The little girl replies, "I have food."
He throws another egg, fresher than the first. She cartwheels out of its way.
The boy says, "Me too! Jinpei the great doesn't need your food!"
