Mr. Isaacs got a radio with a satellite dish and everything and Roger asked if I wanted to see it. Said he had something cool to show me. Didn't sound like it was cool. Daddy said Roger's a good-for-nothing like his old man but what does he know, all he does is sit by the TV and listen to the pastor and agree with him. Momma says I gotta think for myself so I did and I went over to Roger's house and he showed me how you can make pictures out of radio waves, it's like how bats can see in the dark.
And it was so beautiful.
And Roger was so scared.
I don't know why he was scared, seeing a thing like that, but he started crying. Mr. Isaacs didn't believe him, he showed him the picture and everything, but he talked to Dougie Montgomery and Markie Shipman and Betsy West and they all understood, they all saw it too. What're we gonna do, what're we gonna do, it's the end of the world. How's the bunker under Forest Glen gonna stop that, daddy doesn't have big enough guns. Blah blah boo hoo.
Maybe the world ends. Maybe it doesn't. It's all just a game. All I know is that Roger Isaacs' radio showed me something amazing and real and true and if Momma and Daddy don't believe me, then heck with them, maybe I can do something about it.
