It's 8 pm on August 8th, 2088. Parents named Andrew and Amelia Gillett are at the Dream Hospital and they were to become parents for the fourth time. The couple has three children, whose names are Kate Gillett, Katherine Gillett and Karlo Gillett. They are all girls. However, their fourth child is a boy, and they have decided to name him Kendrick Gillett. At 10 pm the same day, a loud wailing noise is heard in the hospital. Kendrick Gillett comes into the world and the first faces he sees are his parents' faces glowing with delight. 

Kendrick and his mom stay in the hospital for the next 2 days. Then, Kendrick meets his three elder sisters at his home. They all dote on him but he doesn't like all the attention and starts crying. He then goes to sleep as he is very tired. He wakes up in the late afternoon at 3:30 ish. His parents try to get him to drink some water and just lets him sit in his cot and look around and watch TV with his family. 

Kendrick's whole family are avid fans of soccer and always play it and watch it. Almost all the games they play at home are related to football and his cot's design is about football. They have some computer games like FIFA 88 and PES 88, which they usually play when Kendrick's mom is not home. 

Kendrick's neighbours also had a child on the same day Kendrick was born and Kendrick and Ethan, the other boy, were best friends and always wanted to visit each other's houses and stay near to each other.
