Brother

Running ahead of my family

Bouncing around in glee.

Ice cream? Ooh mother may I have some?

Sprinting back to her full speed, knocking down a few.

Oh wait she’s talking to someone else...

Ice cream...ice cream...ice cream...ice cr- [name]? Time to go.

Okay!

Oh wait I had something to tell you.

What was it again?

Ow...my head hurts...but I want to remember...

Oh no! Mother’s leaving.

Quickly dashing back after his family.

Mother look! A pretty rock!

Stopping to grab something off the streets, bouncing back up narrowly missing a truck honking like there was no tomorrow.

Leaping onto the bed laughing

Pretending to swim in the sheets.

Oh wait!

Mother, I remember now.

‘What is it?’

Oh wait...I forgot it again...

Goodnight mother!

Drifting off into sleep...

Ooh mother!

Sprinting into his parents room

Jumping on their bed.

Can we get ice cream the next time we go?

Pretty pretty please?

Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaaase

Eh?

We already have it?

Oopsies, my bad hehe...

Running off back to his room.
