Rough and Tumble, Chapter 289: Still Game
Chapter 289: Still Game

Zeke squirmed. “I want Daddy, but ….”

Zeke wrinkled his nose. “I think I’m in trouble.”
“No,” soothed Ethan. “Your father will welcome you with gladness.”
A sidelong glance. A sigh. A nod. But as soon as Ethan took a step toward the Pomeroys’ campsite, Zeke blurted, “Wait! My scavenger stuff!”
Ranger Prentice glanced questioningly at Ethan, who chuckled. “Is the game still important?”
“If I get back first, imma win. On account of I found something pink!”
Ethan plucked self-consciously at his sodden T-shirt. “So you did.”
