Children going all out for the Halloween spirit, dressed in their best costumes chosen months before this faithful night of spooks and horror, roam the pavements of Piney Wood lane. Each of those single kids each had stories to tell of it. It was a night, of the year, who one wouldn't judge if they chose to be in a clown attire or an absurd and obscure get up.Melissa Byers had memories, of her previous younger days trick-or-treating in the local neighbourhoods. Eating chocolate bars, which could be the size of her own head, to sugar-overload on Oreos.
Joyce's face each time she'd come home, sneaking a few of her candy bars to Jonathan and will with no fail spoiling their dinner, always brought out the loudest of her laughs.
" Trick or treat!"
Dustin, Lucas, Will, Mike all said in unison to an older lady that answers the door.
Her round-set face wrinkled as her aging eyes began turning to the three older girls.
" Aw. Well, aren't you guys cute? An adorable cat, the prettiest devil I've seen, and a bunny rabbit I see? You girls reminds me to a time where I was much younger. I'm so happy today's girls in youth get to enjoy the freedom of trick or treating. Being kids again. Here you go, ladies."
She reminisces on her girlhood and admired how times had changed for women.
" look at you cuties! The little exterminators. Oh. You four are just cute as a button. I take it these four are your little ones, ladies? You're a little young to be mothers?"
Melissa, Kat and Mandy simultaneously said.
" Brothers. We are their sisters."
Clearing her confusion about the matter and to stop her further assumptions. It made her feel ashamed, there is an awkward beat, where the boys all looked to their sisters.
" Common misconstrue. It happens, it won't be the last time I'm mistaken to be my brother's mom. Don't worry, Ma'am."
Milly said, sharing a little smile to her in hopes of not making the hilariously obvious mistake less likely to be an issue of embarrassment.
