“To be honest I wasn’t, not really.” Jack said with a small shrug. “I had a bit of a crush on a girl, and I actually started talking to her. And her name’s Katelynn, Katelynn Foster. She’s…” he trailed off for a moment, lifting his hands, as if trying to explain her by way of hand gestures. “She’s just wonderful. She’s quiet, shy, incredibly pretty though she can’t see it. She makes me so happy, Steve.”
That name sounded familiar to him as he wracked his brain on why. He knew he had heard it somewhere.
Foster…no way.
“That reporter woman from KMCP who was kidnapped by Psycho Delic and made reports on him?” he asked loudly, a few people turning to look at him before hurrying off.
“She’s your girlfriend? Why are you with a girl who attracts villains?”
Oh he felt bad for the man. The woman seemed weak to him, allowing herself to get kidnapped like she did. But then again she was just a civilian though a mousy one.
“It’s hardly her fault people like that target her.” Jack said, frowning slightly. “And that was as horrible incident, but I was there for her afterwards. I support her, I love her, and she loves me too. We’ve both helped each other a lot, you know? I mean. I used to be unable to go outside my door at all but then I met her, and… and she began taking me out all the time. I went on walks with her, went to stores with her, galleries and things and… it was nice. She reminded me there was a world outside my apartment.”
He made a face though, and shook his head. “I wish they didn’t go after her though. She doesn’t do anything wrong but I guess they like her petite demeanor.”
