It's not like I hated Greg and Diana, but I definitely didn't like them. The way they spoke and the way they acted just wasn't what I had in mind. Yet, thinking back, Marie and Kaylee didn't leave good first impressions either so maybe it just takes some time to warm up to them.
I ate my food in silence, staying alert.
"I just don't think a free education can be passed up on." Greg kept his voice low when speaking to Mr. Atkins. "The only reason I train my girls so hard is for the free pass. I'd be upset if either of them pass up on such a wonderful opportunity."
He trains them? In softball?
"It's different for boys." Mr. Atkins told him.
"Why? Because they don't need a good education?" I could hear Greg's displeasure.
Mr. Atkins looked thrown off. "No, nothing of the sort. I would prefer if my boys picked college too. But for boys, there's the MLB. Girls don't have the option to play professionally unless it's for the national team."
