Never hang around with older kids. Particularly the dumb kind. You never know what they might teach you about life that is both bogus and abhorrent. Nathan was blessed with everything needed to be mislead. He was naïve, trusting, curious, small, pretty, and someone with lots of questions and not clue. It all came to a head that Halloween night when Emily and Nataly, nee Nathan, went out Trick or Treading as sister Princesses. Oft said and a safe bet, be careful what you wish for.
