Authors: Judith Van GIeson
“Leo got tired of it hanging around, punking Tabatoe and stealing her food, and he trapped it.”
“Did he kill it?”
“No. He took it to the animal shelter.”
Maybe the time had come for it to be somebody else's dark shadow. “How are you getting along
with
your mother and Leo?”
“Better.” Her fingers were itching for the keyboard. “Can I?”
“Sure.”
I'd been expecting her to get on the Internet and Teen Chat, but she opened Digital Schoolhouse instead and inserted a disc in the CD-ROM drive. A spiderweb appeared on the screen. In a tinny voice, “Itsy-Bitsy Spider” began to play and Cheyanne sang along. Her fingers left the keyboard and climbed the waterspout.
