familiar tunes.
















JENNIFER BEGAN WALKING BACK TO SCOOPS AHOY, A SMALL BAG FILLED WITH SNACKS IN HER HAND FOR STEVE, ROBIN, AND DUSTIN. As she walked into the back room, she saw Robin standing across the table from Steve and Dustin. "I'm fluent in four languages, you know."

"Russian?"

"Ou-yay are-yay umb-day." Robin said to Dustin, earring laughs from the two boys. 

"Isn't that Pig Latin?" Jennifer questioned, having not heard all of the conversation prior. Robin simply replied with a high fave, signalling the girl was right. 

"Idiot." Steve mumbled, hitting the young boy with the banana peel he held. 

"But, I can speak Spanish, and French and Italian, and I've been in band for twelve years. My ears are little geniuses, trust me." Steve and Dustin looked at the girl unsure. "Come on, it's your turn to sling ice cream, my turn to translate. I don't even want credit. I'm just bored." The two thought for a moment before Robin and Steve swapped the recording and an ice cream scooper. 

"What's going on?" Jennifer spoke up, tossing the plastic bag onto the counter, Dustin immediately looking through it.

"They think they have evil Russians plotting against our country, on tape, but have no idea how to translate it." Robin summarised, Jennifer looking at her with furrowed eyebrows before tilting her head and looking away.

"I'll help." She said as she sat up on the bench. 

"What do you have to offer?" Dustin asked, the girl immediately stopping where she was and staring at him. 

"I'm helping." Jennifer repeated in a monotone voice. 

"Alright." The boy said quickly, avoiding eye contact with Jennifer.
