Kid Lit: The Pair

Kid 1: Yes! Woohoo! Yippeeeeeeee!
Kid 2: What are you so excited about?
Kid 1: The Pair has finally come to terms with it.
Kid 2: “It”?
Kid 1: Yeah, you know, the big “it.”
Kid 2: No way! You’re serious? Way to go buddy! So how did it happen?
Kid 1: Well I was working through a text on the couch next to my reading lamp-
Kid 2: What text?
Kid 1: If you must know, I was analyzing the plural semantic representation of “ham” behaviour among children in Dr. Seuss. Now if you won’t interrupt me again, I’ll continue.
Kid 2: Sorry. Go on.
Kid 1: Well as I was saying, the Pair were in the kitchen and I overheard them arguing about something. Upon closer observation, I deciphered their conversation to mean that generally the mother thinks I should have more freedom, and the father thinks not. She, without ever having read Hegel, dialectically reasoned that I was a pretty smart guy and would use my free will to rebel if ever I thought they were being too silly with all their ridiculous rules.
Kid 2: All right! Congratulations!
Kid 1: Yes, thank you, but don’t you see what this could mean for the future of all kids everywhere?
Kid 2: What?
Kid 1: If word gets out that the Pairs should let us have more freedom, and we kids use that freedom properly, the world will soon find out just what we are capable of, but never had the words or physical strength to achieve!
Kid 2: Yeah, yeah, I see where you’re going with this. Once we are in charge, we will use the Pairs for their verbal and communicative talents, as well as their mobility and dexterity to express our ideas of truth and ethics! We will finally be their puppeteers!
Kid 1: Yes. Afterward, I spoke to the mother alone. I told her that she had made a lot of progress. I told her that she had set a fine example for the mothers and fathers of Pairs everywhere. I told her that admitting the truth is the first step to the Pairs of the world abolishing their envy of our youth. And finally, I gave her a good dose of positive reinforcement so that she will stay motivated to continue this trend and spread her awareness.
Kid 2: You are one cool kid you know that?
Kid 3: Maybe you are cool, maybe not; in any case, I have to ask what proof you have that the mother even understood anything you “told” her.
Kid 1: Well, she hugged me. She definitely hugged me for a while. That is all the reassurance and confirmation I need.
Kid 3: Aaaah, manipulated by the mother’s affections once again I see.
