It wasn’t too long before JJ found some human interest stories for the paper. In their school there was a handicapped individual in a wheelchair. His story detailed how he had been a passenger in his father’s car when they were hit by a drunk driver.

The result of the article was increased understanding of his situation and a less standoffish attitude by the other students.

Jon followed him and after he went inside his home, Jon wrote a note and left it under the windshield wiper. It read, “I saw what you tried to do. That little girl really put the hurt on you. If you try that again, I’ll tell everybody about the little girl that took you out.” He left it unsigned. The note showing up on his car should lead him to believe that it was written by someone that knew him and was a witness. He wouldn’t know who it was and it most likely would drive him buggy trying to figure out just who it was.

Hattie buried her head in Jon’s chest again, so she couldn’t see it, but Jon smiled. He had been her guardian angel, but she didn’t know it and it would have to stay that way. He could see though, that if nothing were done, it could become a full time job. He suggested, “Why not talk it over with my mom. I’m sure she would have some suggestions. She might help you not get in over your head.”

Yea another chapter! Jon having heard all of the Lois Lane stories knew he needed to follow Hattie fortunately. I wonder what Lois will tell her and not be a hypocrite...

Will Hattie ever tell JJ what nearly happened to her? Speaking of JJ his reporting style is similar to Clark's with the human interest stories being his forte.

Perfect! The students have a better understanding of why this young man is in a wheelchair. Empathy for his situation leads them to get to know him better.

More than a note would be needed to stop such a jerk.

This is the best advice Jon could give. It is a hard world out there, Hattie needs to protect herself.
