She’s, like I said, she’s old.â€<br />“Old people can kill people too.â€<br />“I know, but…â€<br />“She could be a ninja.â€<br />“She’s not a ninja, for God’s sake. She’s somebody’s great grandmother.â€<br />“I want you to think carefully about this, Kenny. Have you ever seen her with a sword?â€<br />“What?â€<br />“How about throwing stars?â€<br />“This is ridiculous.â€<br />“Have you ever seen her dressed up as a ninja? That would have been my ï¬rst clue.â€<br />The girl sucked in her cheeks so she wouldn't laugh out loud.
