Who: Peter Johnson & Zoe & open to anyone else at the bowling alley When: Wed 16 Jan, evening Where: Bowling alley What: Pete is wandering around town, checking out the sights. Rating: PG I am guessing.
When school got out Wednesday, Peter knew he should go back to his cousin's house. He had a lot of homework to do. He also knew he wouldn't do it. He'd end up staring at the book in frustration until he got a headache and gave up. Then out would come Zombie Wars on his phone. Wouldn't it be better to just skip the frustration and admit failure up front?
So, instead of going home and pretending to do his homework, Pete wandered through town. It was a bit warmer than it had been, above freezing even, and the walk wasn't totally unpleasant. When he finally started to get a little chilled and thirsty, though, he stopped into the bowling alley. Places like that always had a snack counter, and he had enough money for a hamburger and coke.
He found the snack counter easily and sat down to order his food, pulling out his phone to play a round of Zombie Wars while he waited for the people who worked here to notice him.
