• Strange Things

  Jean cautiously approached Athena, who was cradling the baby tenderly. “Could I have my child back, please?” Jean didn’t mean to sound as abrupt as she did. Athena stood, and reluctantly handed the gurgling bundle over. “He’s a lovely baby.” Athena said, “Maybe I was wrong about him.” Jean was confused. How could anyone be…
