“Well hi, Abby, Tabitha,” Claudia said brightly inviting her son's best friends in.
“Where is Tommy?” Audrey asked sitting down on the couch as the plump glasses wearer, and the semi-muscular girl in the all but tattered black t-Shirt made their way into the living room.
“We'll ask the questions around here Dr. Harrper!” Tabitha decided to play bad cop.
“What Tabitha means to say Audrey,” Abby began as they sat, and Claudia crawled up with her wife, “Today Tommy made rocks fly.” Tabitha busted out.
“Um what?” His parents scratched their heads in confusion.
“Yeah,” Abby resumed calmly, “and ever since then he's been leaking this ‘other worldly’ radiation. So guess what I am trying to ask is…”
“HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN TURNING HIM INTO AN ALIEN WEAPON!?!?!” Tabitha interrupted. Abby rolled her eyes.
“Is there anything that might not be of this world?” The grown women glanced at their engagement rings, then at each other.
“We had been dating for forever.” Audrey started.
“Even though we were flat broke college kids I knew I wanted to marry her.” Claudia brushed a lock of brown hair off her wife's face. “Then one night I was strolling around campus when what should begin? A beautiful meteor shower, and crashing down almost right in front of me, the most beautiful, golden piece of topaz.” Claudia's eyes gleamed from the memory. “I waited for it to cool, and took it with me. And using what I learned from a jewelry making class, I made our engagement rings. Then I proposed.”
“It was all going amazing until a week later,” Audrey recalled, “I used to be a metal head. And one day in our dorm I was head banging, when the whole dorm building shook! Obviously we thought it was some kind of weird fluke.”
“But then we began to notice things,” Claudia was fiddling with her own black hair, an act she had done ever since she was a little girl. “Rocks began rolling if we rotated our thumbs. We remained perfectly still in an earthquake, I mean we wouldn’t even notice that there was an earthquake unless we looked at the other buildings!”
“And it is your rings that are giving off the radiation,” Tabitha confirmed after doing a scan.
“So, so, the radiation had an effect on Tommy,” Audrey raised an eyebrow.
“Seems like it,” Abby nodded.
