Kei did a double take trying to figure out if the silver-haired boy/man actually had been standing there less than two seconds ago, she was also muttering about his comment; not the finding him if she got bored with this Wanda person, the one about being baby-sat.
âIâm 27 years old, I donât need a baby-sitter and if these people think that then Iâm gonna be findinâ a way to get back to the island and Spot.â She tapped John on the shoulder in an attempt to get his attention, âYou donât think I need a baby-sitter, do you?â Kei asked him, her voice holding a hint of obvious annoyance. Her pride had been somewhat hurt with that question, though the sting was taken away by the added offering of finding him if she got boredâ¦still, you didnât mess with a surferâs pride, it was an unwritten rule, only thing worse was droppinâ in on another surferâs wave. Those things just werenât done.
If he had stayed around any longer he would have heard an adapted version of Keiâs âwhat the hell were you thinkinâ?â speech, usually used for Barneyâs who had the nerve to drop in on her choice waveâ¦she might be neurotic but that didnât mean she needed to be constantly watched.
âIf I get bored, first heâs hearinâ the speechâ¦then weâll have some fun.â She muttered dryly, her gaze falling on the blue-furred man as she let out a low whistle, âAnd I thought I got a short straw.â Kei said in an undertone, her mind having gotten over Quicksilverâs comment for the most part. He would still hear her speech if they met back up, but she wasnât going to dwell on it until she got herself too angry.
