Chapter Three

THAT OLD MILTON TOUCH

They had just about finished the project when Nina and Milton got into another fight. This time they were at Milton’s house.

“Just one miner,” said Milton. “It totally happened, Nina. It’s history!”

“No. No dead things, Milton. It’s bad juju!” said Nina.

“Ugh, not that hooey again,” said Milton.

“You won’t be saying that when we fail,” said Nina.

Ada didn’t want to agree with Milton out loud, but she totally agreed with Milton.

“Milton, if we’re not going to get a better grade by including bodies, then we shouldn’t do it,” said Ada.
