Devastation
10. Penguins and Red Trains
In the morning I woke up to the sound of a girl screaming ‘the possum tried to get me again’. So I got up and got dressed. I wore stripy black three-quarter pants, a random t-shirt and odd shoes. I then walked out to see who was screaming
“Shut up, you’re going to wake her up” Mike said
“Sorry man but it tried to get me again” Tre retaliated; Tre obviously got attacked by the possum again. Screaming like a girl, again. That is one scary possum.
“Next time try to be quieter”
“I’ll try”
“Why are you here anyway?”
“I thought she wanted drum lessons”
“Yeah but she can’t play drums while she is sleeping”
“Well I thought she would be awake by now”
“At what 7.30” Mike said looking at his watch
“Yeah”
“Tre, she is sleeping, ok”
“Ok”
“Guys I’m awake” I said “Thanks to Tre screaming like a girl” I mumbled
“Good did you want to start your drums now?”
“Can’t I have a chance to wake up properly?”
“Fine” Tre said while rolling his eyes
“Mike what’s for breakfast?”
“What ever you want”
“Cool can I have chocolate?”
“No I meant anything appropriate for breakfast”
“Not fair”
“Nothing is ever fair”
“So true, ok then I’ll have some bread”
“Again?”
“Yes please”
“Can I have some to?” Tre asked
“No you should have had breakfast at your house”
“Please”
“No, how many pieces Absent?”
“One please”
“Ok” he said and walked into the kitchen to get the bread for me
“Don’t worry I’ll share it with you”
“Thanks, err”
“‘Absent’”
“Why is your name ‘Absent’?”
“I don’t like my real name so my friends came up with the name of ‘Absent Brain’”
“Oh why?”
“It’s a joke with me and my friends that I was born without a brain”
“Ok that’s weird, cool name though”
“Back at you”
“That’s not funny”
“Yeah I know, I just wanted to say it”
“Hey I just realized you’re talking to me”
“I guess I am”
“Bread ready”
“Coming” I said and ran into the kitchen. I sat at the table and he gave me the bread. I ate it and said thanks.
“Hey I thought you said you would give me some” Tre said
“Well I guess it was so yummy that I ate it by myself, so basically I lied” I said
“Not fair” Tre complained
“I know it isn’t”
“Anyway are you ready to go?”
“Go?”
“Yeah Mike doesn’t have a drum kit, I don’t know how he lives without one, so we have to go to my place”
“Yeah ok, I’ll just get ready”
“I thought you already did that”
“No. That was waking up”
I went to my room and just stuffed random stuff into a bag. This includes a blue light, a stress ball, a toy penguin and a red Thomas the tank engine toy. I walked out into the lounge room when I had finished.
“Shut up, you’re going to wake her up” Mike said
“Sorry man but it tried to get me again” Tre retaliated; Tre obviously got attacked by the possum again. Screaming like a girl, again. That is one scary possum.
