Dad saves the day- I get the feeling he has done this a thousand times- by spraying her with a fire extinguisher.

"Wow. Now I believe. That was... AMAZING!" Sara's eyes are lit up in a way I have never, ever seen them. Wait, I've seen her this way once- when she got her first dog, who was hit by a car about a week ago.

But what really makes the moment is is her running up to mom and dad and bear hugging them.

"Okay, Steaven. Your up," dad says.

"I... I don't want to!" He shouts angrily.

"Come'on, tiger, put em up. Show me your game face."

"I said... I DON'T WANT TO!" He runs towards dad, his fists up. But he forgot that dad is a lot stronger then him for now.

"Okay, tiger," He says, carrying Steaven to the bed. he straps him down, and lea injects him.

And nothing happens, except Steaven calming down.

"Wow. I feel.... Strong. Calm. In control. I love it!" he says. "I'm sorry dad.'

Dad undoes the straps, and steaven gives him a bear hug.

sara and I glance at each other. Not missing a beat, we say in unison

"Sorry to break this up, but can we please get something to eat? Im starving."
