<Milo's POV>
July 4th, 2017
Milo wiggled his toes in the sand feeling the crunchiness of it. He looks straight ahead at the skyline. The sun was setting glowing light pink and reflecting on the waves of the ocean.
His dad sat down next to him. Putting his hand on his shoulder saying "Isn't that just beautiful, Junior?."
"Yeah Dad."
Off in the distance on a boat a bright light shut straight up, then exploded into a rainbow of colors. Back on the beach, there was a loud "oooooh".
"I want one dad?" Milo asks
"You do, well how about this," his dad says "I give you twenty dollars, and you buy whatever fireworks you want."
"Really Dad?"
"Yeah sure why not, you're seven now not a baby anymore,"
"I'm seven and a half," Milo says sticking up seven fingers
His dad chuckles "You sure are,"
Milo put the twenty dollar bill in his right pocket and stumbled off to the vendor selling fireworks.
"Mister, mister," Milo calls "Can I have your biggest firework, please?"
"How old are you," A man in a deep voice says
"I'm seven,"
"Where are your parents, kid?"
"My dad just over there," he says pointing in the direction of where his dad - was. Where did he go?
"Mhm, alright then," the man says "Here you go, don't die,"
"Okie dokie,"
Milo holds the firework with both his hands and waddles through the bumpy sand. Where he was just sitting with his dad. He does a quick 360 looking for his dad, but he is nowhere to be seen. Milo shrugs, his dad always comes back for him.
Then a small girl with straight black hair and wearing bright neon clothes came up to him.
"Hey there punk whatcha got there," she says curiously.
"My firework," he says stepping back
"Where did you get it?"
"My dad gave me twenty dollars to buy one,"
"Dang, you got a cool dad," she says "Where is he?"
"Donno," he does a little shrug
"What about your mom?"
"I don't have one," he says softly looking down at his feet
"Same," she says "Well not really anyways."
"What does that mean?"
"I have a stepmom but.. but she's a bitch," she says quietly.
"Oh," he didn't know what to say to that
"Thank God she's not here. You don't know what it's like having a strict parent."
"Yea my dad's funny," Milo's dad was only back for the break, soon he would be going to London in a few days.
"Well then wanna set off the firework?"
Milo thinks for a bit: she seems cool, it's his firework though, he should be the one to use it, but she does have pretty eyes.
"Ok," he says happily.
They start walking to the water when the girl asks "What's your name?"
"Milo Pulch Jr," he says "What's your's?"
