Hey! That's my job!

Yesterday, while in the car, a song was playing that has the word "ass" in it. Tripp knows the song and always waits patiently for them to sing "ass", so he can chuckle to himself. But yesterday, hearing "ass" while Megan was in the car sparked a memory and he said, "Hey, Megan. Remember when you got in that fight with the boy at school?"

Immediately, I looked at Megan, who tried to defend herself by explaining the situation to me. Evidently, a bigger boy threatened to kick Tripp in the balls. She said that she told him to leave Tripp alone. I suspect that the words "...or I will kick your ass" may have been spoken. I didn't clarify, though, because I was so shocked that Megan had stood up for Tripp. She spends most of her time tormenting him in a million different ways. I was wondered for a minute about what sort of inner monologue she experienced and decided that it was probably something along the lines of "if anyone's gonna kick him in the balls, it's going to be me!"
