"Natalie. Natalie!" she hurriedly waves the other redhead over.
Dad waves off the actual driver of our race car who gives a fit when he sees that Dad is taking his place. The audience continues to cheer and I watch as the television screen adds my last name to the list of racers.
Natalie hurries over, "Yes, Miss Potts?"
I snap, "Did you know about this?!"
"Uh, this is the first that I have known of it," she answers, looking from me to Pepper.
Pepper breathes heavily, "This, this cannot happen."
"Absolutely. I understand. How can I help you both?"
I rub my forehead as Pepper tells Natalie to go get Happy. I moan into my hands and the pain gets worse. Dad hops into the seat and pulls on the helmet, making a face as he does. I think I'm going to pass out, either from worry or anger I can't quite tell. Dad looks at the camera and points to it. My eyes roll over to Justin, and Dad's meaning is clear: he's mocking his "competitor".
"Look! That's Stark!" a man says, motioning to the screen.
"Unbelievable, unbelievable," Pepper scowls and her face turns kind of red.
"What is he thinking?" I mumble to myself, analyzing him with squinted eyes.
Dad revs the car up and gives a thumbs up.
