Two and Half Men - Reborn as Jake Harper

Chapter 91

The day after, I picked up my phone and called Missy.

"Hey," I said as soon as she picked up. "So, what did you think of the movie?"

There was a short pause before she replied, "Okay, first of all—my parents didn't want me to go see it just because it was a horror movie. My mom said something about 'blasphemy' and 'demons' and refused to come."

"So how did you see it?"

"I convinced my brothers to go with me," she said proudly.

Missy didn't need to convince Georgie to go with her, nor did she need a fake ID. Paranormal Activity was rated PG-13—another great move by Pepper. The original, if I remember correctly, was rated R for excessive foul language.

I chuckled. "So, that's a good thing, right?"

"It was terrifying! But yeah, I loved it," she said. "I can't believe you didn't warn me properly. And don't think I didn't notice your name in the credits."

I laughed. "And what about that video camera I sent you?"

Missy lit up. "I set it up right in front of us. I watched the footage after—it's hilarious. Sheldon was screaming like a little girl, and even Georgie made some funny faces. I'm totally using it against them."

She continued, "There was this one part in the movie where Sheldon kept muttering, 'This is not real, this is not real,' and 'That's not physically possible'—but he was still clearly terrified."
