7 Sklippie
It was October 30. Kids don’t go trick or treating on Halloween in Greece, but there’s a celebration, so they had the foster home all decorated with some cheap ornaments. Sklippie was on the top bunkbed with Ace.
“She’s my hero,” Ace said, fawning over the woman in the video they were watching. It was from years ago, of the internet celebrity Sexy Cyborg. She was a Chinese woman that hacked hardware and invented new stuff. Ace wore her protective glasses over her head, it was like a permanent accessory for her.
Sklippie nodded. “You wanna be a maker, like her?”
“Yeah… I mean, sure, there’s never gonna be a second Sexy Cyborg, but I’ll try.”
“You can do it Ace, you’re smartest person I know.”
She looked away.
Ty grabbed the bed and pulled himself up. He wasn’t tall enough
