The Father of American Comics Superheroes

Chapter 38: The so-called face (2/2)

However, when her good-looking father wakes up tomorrow, he will have a funny look on his face when he tells the other side what happened tonight.

Also, its hilarious that he obviously doesnt eat spicy food, but hes trying desperately to stuff it and pretend that its okay.

But, he asked for it, he lost her mother! She would never forgive him!

But after she saw the other partys red face, more than why, there was some worry and inexplicable irritation in her heart.

She shouldnt have said that on purpose tonight

No, its all because he deserved it!

She whispered, stirring her hands together.

And Clark, across from her, looked slightly moved when he heard this.

This girl had only recently come here, and the reason they had become friends, apart from talking, there was another important reason, and that was that neither had a mother.

See what?

Hope pursed her lips and looked at Clark curiously.

Clark said, We should be thankful that we both have good dad.

Good dad? Heh! Hope sneered, Mikes a good dad, but he never mind.

Clark sighed and said, Hope, no matter what, hes your dad, so maybe you guys can talk about it.

Talk about what? And what do you know?

Hope angrily leapt off the couch and said, Its getting late, our family driver is here, Im leaving!

Hank!

Hope shouted, striding out the door.

Hank Pim turned his head, smiled nervously, and said, To, to go!

Mike sent a shaking and slow Hank Pim to the door and said, Come back often sometime!

Hank Pim gestured, got in his car and disappeared from the Kent familys view.

Mike turned to close the door, but saw Clark a little unhappy look, and said: Whats wrong?

Clark was silent and said, Hope her dad cant seem to eat spicy food, but she purposely made her dad eat spicy food, she

Clark  told Mike something the two had said.

Mike chuckled, pinched Clarks face, and said, Before you persuade someone, you have to at least figure out why, and youre right, but you also have to consider Hopes mood right now.

Clark nodded and said, I understand.

Mike stroked Clarks head, Apologize to Hope tomorrow

After a pause, he said oddly: By the way, ask how Hank is doing.
