~Southern Proverb “And why would that be?” Johnny asked, propping his hands on his hips and stepping back slightly. “I don’t take kindly to folks messing with what’s mine, that’s why.” The bully took a step toward Johnny, back into his personal space. “Look, it’s been real nice dancing with you, but my dance card’s full, so why don’t you tell me what I’ve done to put that bee in your pretty little bonnet.” “I’ll tell you who I’m not, Chief Butterball.” Johnny stayed silent but raised one eyebrow. “I’m not Martha Maye’s ex-husband.” Johnny nodded. It was all clear now. “Lenny Applewhite,” he said, standing his ground. He thought Lenny was mighty stupid to stand so close to him, because it allowed him to tower over the man. A vision of a bug being squished under a shoe came to his mind. He crossed his arms and glared down at the man. “Darn tootin’ I’m Lenny Applewhite. And I’m literally here to say”—he jabbed his finger into Johnny’s chest with each word—”stay outta my way, Chief.”
