Chapter 3: Darn it!
Quietly, Zenon and Dasha walked out of her room.
"Mom?" Zenon called.
"In here, girls." Mrs. Kar's voice came from the living room.
Zenon and Dasha exchanged an 'I-sure-hope-this-works' look. Zenon took a deep breath and walked into the living room.
"Hey mom!" Zenon said casually, as she went around the couch to sit between her mom and dad.
"Oh no." Mrs. Kar sighed, "What do you want this time?"
"Mother! Must you always assume that whenever I come and talk to my wonderful parents, I want something?"
"Yes." her mom and dad said together.
Zenon looked down, knowing it was true. "Okay, well here's the thing. Proto Zoa left me a zap pad messege, saying that he wanted me to come down and see him perform a concert or two. Since I have my pod license, I was wondering-"
"No." her mom and dad said together, again. Did they, like, plan for this or something?
"But mom! Dad! Why not?" Zenon protested.
"Sorry, Z, but you're just too young to go to Earth by yourself!" Mrs. Kar said.
"But mom, you forget! Dasha will be with me! And a ten-year-old plus a 17-year-old is a 27-year-old, you know!"
"Don't even try that, Z! You're not going, and that is final!" Zenon opened her mouth, as if she was going to say something, and closed it again. She stormed off, heading back to her room.
Dasha looked from her aunt and uncle, to the door, and back to her aunt and uncle. A smile flickered on her lips then she pointed at the door.
"I'm gonna...go now..." she raced out the door after Zenon.
