“All set for the job hunt?” Mrs. Gunter asked with a
smile.
Kim nodded.
“You look nice. Did you check to see if it will rain?”
“It’s not going to rain, but it’s going to be hot.”
“Okay. Here’s a fare card for the subway,” said Mrs.
Gunter. “And here’s some cash to pay for lunch and snacks.
Call me if there’s a problem.”
“Thanks, Mom,” Kim said.
Kurt burst into the room. “Mom, I’m going to get a job,
too!” he shouted.
Mrs. Gunter said, “Your job is first to do what Kim says
and then to be good while she looks for a job.”
“Yes, Mom,” said Kurt.
