77. Cheerful
Summer before sixth year
“Mum, I’ve decided what I want for my birthday,” Everett announced rather cheerful as he walked into the kitchen one morning for breakfast.
“And what’s that?” Mia asked.
“A kangaroo. Like those ones we saw on holiday. I want one as a pet, they’re awesome, jumping and being all kangaroo like.” Everett said, seeming rather proud of his idea.
“Hon, you can’t just have a kangaroo as a pet.” Mia replied, frowning slightly as Everett's happiness dropped.
“Oh... Well that sucks. Can I just have a new guitar then?” Everett requested after considering his options.
“Of course.”
