"You really should punch the brat who's mean to you. I don't know why you don't. One firm right hook and he'll never tease you again." Paco took his tea despite the offers for other things and sat down, taking a gentle sip of the tea like a grown up.

And promptly spitting it back into the cup. Ew! It was so strong and hot. He pulled a face and held it out to Leonard.

"What is that? It's gross."

It was tea but to a child like Paco, it was the worst thing. "God, please don't give that stuff to Barry. I want him to get well, not grossed out."
