Chapter 49

Back home...

"I'm back!" I shouted.

"Oh good! Listen, do you want to go see that new movie? I think it's called--oh. Who's you new friend?" Raph smiled but you could tell it was fake.

"This is Bobby." I smiled. "He's from Mexico!"

"Hola!" Bobby put out his hand for a hand shake.

"Oh, I don't speak spanish..." Raph shook his head and still had that fake smile on his face.

"I said hello." Bobby took away his hand.

"Oh. Hi!" Raph still smiled.

"May I see your other gay fathers?" Bobby turned to me.

"Oh--" I started.

"Yes, yes...why don't you meet her other gay fathers." Raph pushed Bobby into Donny and Mikey's room.

Bobby went in there and I followed whispering.

"Gay?" Raph asked.

"He asked me why I had four fathers, and I paniced!" I went into the room still listening to Raph.

"So you said we were gay?" Raph followed me into the room.

I looked from Mikey to Donny. They had the same fake smiles as Raph did. Only faker (if that's a word)!

"This is your new friend?" Donny asked.

"Yes." I answered.

"Hello. My name is Bobby." Bobby smiled at Mikey and Donny.

"Drake?" Mikey asked.

"Excuse me?" Bobby said.

"Drake. Is your last name Drake?" Mikey asked.

"Nooo..."

"Do you get it? Drake? Bobby Drake? Do you know X-men? There's a kid named--oh forget it..."

"Mikey Bobby's from Mexico." I stepped into the conversation.

"Oh. That explains it." Mikey stepped back.

"Yes, well I better be going. I can not be late for supper. So, if I could, may I see your last father?" Bobby asked.

"He training right now." I said.

Donny, Raph, and Mikey started to push him into Leo's room.

"Yeah, let's see Leo..." Donny said.

Everybody just walked into his room and he was meditating. "What do you want?" there was no sound but Leo knew we were there.

"Meet Sapphire's new friend." Mikey said.

Leo stood up and when he saw Bobby, he gave the same old fake smile. "Hello."

"Hello." Bobby said.

"This is Bobby." Raph said.

"He's from Mexico." Donny said.

"Oh. Wow." Leo said.

"I think I should go now." Bobby said.

"Well, if you have to!" Leo pushed him out the door. "We loved your visit! Don't come back!" he shut the door, whipped around at me and the fake smile left. There was a glare there.
