CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR
Her lashes were the longest Elena had ever seen before and she seemed to like blinking. Elena liked the way she talked, the defiance and strength in her voice.
'It's a girl's name. My brother, Mason fancied himself a comic book creator and he is writing a comic about a girl with super strength, invisibility and can control the weather. He said she will be the first African female superhero and her name is McKenna' Elena explained
'What does McKenna mean?' the girl asked again.
Elena was amused, the little girl was more interested in getting the meaning of a name she called her jokily than fixing her bleeding abdomen.
'It has a lot of meaning but the one that struck with me is fire born. McKenna means born of fire' Elena explained
'Can I keep the name?' the girl asked
Elena wasn't sure the girl needed her permission to take a new name.
'Why?'
'Because I like it and no one taunts or dare disrespect fire…so, can I keep it Elena?' she asked again.
