" Yeah, that's weird." I laughed. "Girls will spend all day at the malland not buy a single thing!" Would you think it was weird if you could test out...different videogames before buying one, cause that's what girls get to do - we checkout different outfits and then buy what we liked when it goes on sale." That would be great," I admitted. "But stores won't let us do that, Ican watch demos but that 's it." So you admit it, girls have it better than boys!" I never said that," I answered quickly,. He took hold of my shoulder and spoke in an emotional voice, "Peter, there is bad news; I think you need to sit down." Your father was preparing a battle plan for the forthcoming manoeuvres when the vehicle he and his driver were using detonated an unexploded ordinance. The area was supposed to have been cleared, apparently this one went un-noticed."The words I was dreading he would say "Your father died instantly, the driver died later in the hospital."I was shattered; I felt a hollow sickness. Truth be told, I’m not really attached to my parents. Maybe it’s the lack of time spent with them, or maybe I’m a little bonkers, but I just don’t care for my parents. I quickly make myself a sandwich, and rush, locking the door, to the bus stop. My name is Max. I live in a small town, near Arkansas. I am 15 years old. I am 5 feet 5 inches, and have broad shoulders, with short brown hair, and brown eyes. The absence of my parents does mean one good thing… Every boy’s dream… Empty house, wifi,. " You're whetting my appetite." We kissed again. "I'll go check my email while you're getting ready." Yeah ... Guys have it easy. I have my routine to do."I sat in my study and powered up my laptop. Shortly I saw Mae standing in the doorway. She wore her short, knee-length robe and held another bottle of cava and a pair of glasses. She smiled expectantly and bit her lower lip.Together we descended the stairs to the living room. She had turned the lights down low and put on some soft music. Mae.
