A tall and wide man with a bushy beard and five teeth missing had lead us over to grey ,wobbly chairs. Where is the table? mum asked the cop. Another tooth fell out as he said i'll get that for you. A girl who looked about my age had wandered over to the glass box near the kitchen. That room was soundproof I tried to read what they were saying in there but i just couldn't make it out. Meanwhile my dad was fixing up his shirt so he can impress his brother. Soon after ten minutes the man had come over with the table this time wearing his name tag. Thanks ah James. Don't mention it James said it happens all the time. Mum and dad sat there thinking about what he meant about it happens all the time. Uncle George had entered the room in a persistent way. He sat down on the opposite side of me. He wore a white singlet and green shorts. I couldn't blame him i wouldn't want to wear that brown jumpsuit all day. Georges bawled head sparkled as his voice cracked when he said "its been a long time since I've seen you". Dad put his head down in shame as mum turned her head to the left swiping her tears. "I'm sorry" mum said but you're dog yo yo the one we look after had ran away and had been run over by a train". Uncle George hid his pain as we all stopped talking for a moment. The family next to didn't seem like they were having a good time either.
