Rebecca was used to kids with too big a mouth for their own good, so Eli’s confident air did not really surprise her. What was a first was him using his miniature, clumsy Casanova act on her. She wasn’t sure if she wanted to laugh or slap the cuffs on the kid after he used his cringe-worthy line. She decided to address his reckless skate-boarding instead.<strong>“Eli it is? Well Eli, this park is for everyone to enjoy. That means you are welcome to use your skateboard, just as long as you don’t interfere with anyone else’s enjoyment. The park furniture is not your personal obstacle course. Now am I going to have to call your parents or are you going to behave yourself?”</strong>She crossed her arms under her chest and shifted her weight on her right leg – a stern stance she had subconsciously picked up from her dad.
