Ch.6 Decisions, Decisions

It was her first day back at school and Kim was slowly getting use to it. Everyone gave her sad smiles, or the look- the look of pity. Kim hated being pitied but knew she wasn't going to be escaping it, at least not yet.

Kim stared at the options of food in front of her. She wasn't even really looking at the food to choose, she just was blanking out.

"Decisions, decisions" Monique quipped behind Kim "I know the food here is just so overwhelmingly good, that its so difficult to choose"
"Ha, ha, ha funny Mon" Kim said, coming back to reality. Kim was glad that Mon didn't treat her like she was glass. She could still joke, or be sarcastic, which was refreshing, especially now a days.

The two girls found a table to eat at. Every now and then a cheerleader or some other student bring their 'sorrys' to Kim. She nodded in response, and would return to her food, which was mostly being eaten by Rufus.

"It feels so empty now" Kim stated, "eating in here use to seem so crowded, but now…" her voice trailed off.

"Yeah I know whatcha mean Kim" Mon agreed with her. The rest of lunch was filled by Monique filling her in on some details that Kim had missed over the days that she hadn't gone to school. Kim would occasionally grunt or acknowledge that she was paying attention, but refrained from talking too much.

As the minuets wound down, it was getting closer to Home Ec; the first class Kim didn't have Monique in, and the one that would be the heaviest reminder of Ron. As the bell rang, Monique hugged her friend, and walked Kim to class. Once the two said their goodbyes Monique called back "Taco Market after school?" Kim told her sure and went to her 'desk' before the late bell rang.

"Ms. Possible I would like you to know how sorry I am for, everything" Barkin said "and I would completely understand if you so choose not to participate in cooking"

"Thanks Mr. B" Kim said with a small smile, Rufus stuck his head out at the mention of cooking, and looked distraught at the idea of Kim not making him a snack "but I think I should try and make up for lost time"

"Glad to hear it" Barkin said "so decisions, decisions! What should we make today?"


A ways away

Ron thought it was ironic that something he hated so, so much was the think that was allowing him back. Paul had explained to him and Bernie that the Mystical Monkey power had somehow forced him out of his body BEFORE he died. So by technicality he wasn't dead. Now it was on to the hard part, finding a new body.

"Are you sure I can't just have MINE back?" Ron bugged Bernie again

"I don't think Middleton, or your 'Kim' as you call her, would much like to have a ROTTING corpse walking around" Bernie retorted

"Felix would think it was cool" Ron grinned "having a zombie for a friend"

"Oy" Bernie slapped his forehead "We here"

Bernie had been taking him to a room that would show Ron his 'options'. They walked in and Ron instantly began scanning all the screens eliminating his choices.

"NO, way too old, too young, to hairy, too short, too creepy…" and on and on until it came down to the final 3. "Decisions, decisions!" Ron pondered over his selection. One was blond, skinny, but with no freckles, and a lot more taller than his former self. Option number 2 was Blond, a bit more muscle tone to him, around the same height though, in fact Ron would of picked him in a heart beat had it not been the fact that ALL of the guys clothes was high label brands. Option 3 was defiantly the most like Ron, build wise, clothes wise, but his hair was much darker, and so was his skin. If I were half black, that would be me Ron thought to himself.

Bernie glanced at Ron's selection. "I don't like the first one, he looks like a basketball junkie"

"Thanks Bernie, I totally asked your opinion on this" Ron said sarcastically, but found himself agreeing with Bernie. "So what else to I get to know about these guys?"

Bernie thought for a second, and then flipped over the screens with the 2 pictures, revealing a complete bio.

"Cool, thanks Bernie!" and after reading and considering his options Ron came to a decision. "Ok, I think I'm ready" Ron announced

"Are you sure Ronald?" Bernie wanted to make sure Ron was happy with his choice- he'd be living with it the rest of his life after all.

"Oh yeah I'm sure" Ron said heading for the door "Take me home!"


Meanwhile

Kim looked up at the clock. Only a few more minutes and she would be out of there. No one expected her at cheer practice, but she felt the urge to put on a fake smile. She was going to be doing it for the rest of her life anyways. Monique was in the stands waiting, and talking to some guys who were going to try out for the mascot position. Kim didn't like the fact that there was going to be another Mad Dog, but understood that it was bound to happen sooner or later.

"Ok gals, we're done here today" Bonnie (who had so graciously accept to be the captain) announced.

"Thank-God" Kim whispered to herself, while running to change and meet Monique.

A while later Monique and Kim made their way to a booth inside Taco Market. Since Bueno Nacho went under, Taco Market had replaced the Mexican food joint. It looked exactly the same, but the menu was different, mainly focusing on chicken Mexican food products rather than everything being drenched in cheese. The 'Naco' was also no were to be found.

"Girl, you must be starved" Monique headed straight for the counter to order after putting her stuff on seat.

"Not really, I'll just get a 2 chicken soft tacos" Kim replied

"Split a drink?" Monique asked

"Sure, a coke?" Kim requested

"Eh, how bout a milk? I heard that the chicken actually is spicy, and you know I don't have much of a strong tongue," Monique said

"No then, you can get a milk, I'll just get water" Kim answered

"Ok" Monique turned to order from Ned.

The two girls sat with their food, and for once it seemed quite in the new store except for the little mole rat munching and crunching. Kim had ordered a chicken 'n chip kids meal as well for Rufus, with extra cheese. Kim was on her last bite when she froze.

"Yeah, I'll have a Grande size chimmarito, and 3 nachos, and 3 tacos and extra cheese please" came a voice so much like Ron's.

"Planning on making a" Ned's voice then turned into a whisper "a Naco?"

"Sure am" came the voice again. Ned smiled, he missed Bueno Nacho and the customers missed the Naco. Most ordered nachos and tacos just to make them themselves.

Kim had turned to look at the stranger, hope filling her eyes. She didn't recognize him, but he did have a Ron like quality air about him. The clothes, the hairstyle, and the way he stood. The stranger turned from the counter with his order in tow. Kim gasped. Monique looked over and dropped her burro. He even had the same goofy grin as Ron, and his eyes were creamy brown just like Ron's. Kim thought Monique had been in shock for the same realization, but was wrong.

"Is Kim actually checking out a new guy?" Monique grinned, and missed Kim's worried expression "there ain't not decisions, decisions about this Kim, your talking to him NOW!"

"But Mon, don't you see it? Mon!" but Monique had already pushed Kim in front of the young man causing him to drop his trey. Kim groaned and glared at her friend, before turning to help clean the mess up.
