Mr. Peabody placed his foot on the pavement as Sherman got out.
"Have a good day Sherman," he called after the boy.
"You too, Mr. Peabody!"
Peabody smiled as the boy galloped into school, Penny by his side. He was about to take off, when a cat appeared by his side.
But it wasn't an alley cat.
She stood on two legs like Peabody. She had orange fur with a black star over her eye. She had yellow eyes. She wore pink rimmed glasses. A green bow sat in her hair.
"You're Mr. Peabody, correct," she asked.
This kitty made him feel funny inside. His heart thumped against his white, fluffy chest. Mr. Peabody cleared his throat.
"That is correct," he said.
"I'm Ms. Janet. My daughter, Izzy, has become very good friends with your son, Sherman."
She held out her paw and Peabody shook it. He felt his heart flutter. She was still talking, but Peabody wasn't listening.
He was too taken by her beauty.
"Well, it was nice meeting you Mr. Peabody."
Peabody snapped out of his daze. Ms. Janet was getting on her motorcycle.
"Cute and dangerous," Peabody thought."
"Wait! Ms. Janet!"
Peabody jumped off his moped and scampered over to Janet.
"Yes, Mr. Peabody," Janet asked, taking off her helmet.
"Would you like to have dinner at my house? I mean, because if our kids know each other so well, we should too."
"Sure, I'd love to."
"It's alright, I under-wait did you say yes?"
Janet smiled softly.
"Of course! I completely agree with your reasoning."
Peabody's heart thumped against his chest again. He felt slightly light-headed, but kept his posture.
"Wonderful! I see you at 8:00!"
Peabody wrote down his address and gave it to Janet. Janet smiled and tapped his nose with a "Boop," before riding away. She popped a wheelie before completely riding away.
Peabody put his paw on his nose. His eyes went half-lidded and his tail wagged. He sighed happily.
"See you at 8."
