The Youngest Goodman

The sofa bed

"For someone who doesn't stop going on about Formula one, you're surprisingly shit at driving." Started Adam, getting out of the car, he was the eldest of the three Goodman children, yet still just as immature as Adora, the youngest.

"Ha Ha" Jonny, the middle child, responded dryly, rolling his eyes.

"He's right, I reckon I'd be better and I'm 14." Addy chuckled.

"Seriously, like no control of the vehicle."

"Oh really, no control of the vehicle?" Jonny said just as his car alarm went off. " Why does it keep doing that?!".

"No control of the vehicle" Adam and Addy retorted in unison.

"Well you can drive next time." Jonny huffed at his brother.

"Fine! And you can learn from the master!" Adam bragged

"Master knob-face" Addy commented.

The three of them walked to the front door, only to find it already ajar.

"Why's the door open?" Adam questioned. The siblings walked in to find a German Shepard, waiting patiently next to the toilet door. "umm..." Adam continued as they heard the toilet flush. The door opened to reveal their neighbour, Jim. "Oh, Helloo!" Jim said, slightly shocked to see them. " Um... hi Jim?" Adam responded hesitantly.

 "Jonny?" Jim questioned.

"I'm Adam..."

"I'm Jonny"

" And I'm Addy"

"Oh, yes." Jim said, jumping away from his peaceful, unmoving, unthreatening dog in fear.

"Why are you...?" Adam trailed off.

"hmm?"

"Nothing."

Jim reached towards his dogs lead with fear " Good boy, good boy Wilson! Goodbye." he mumbled being dragged out the door by Wilson. Adam shut the door behind him.

"That wasn't strange." Adam stated voice laced with sarcasm.

"Oh yeah not at all" Addy agreed, leaving her brothers and walking towards the kitchen.

"Hi mum." Jonny and Adam chorused.

"Hi boys, where's Adora?" Jackie questioned.

"I'm here," Addy started coming round the corner, whipped cream in hand, " Hi mum." she smiled, squirting the cream into her mouth. "Why are you in the garage?".

"We're having a clear out,"

"Don't you mean what's Jim doing in our loo?" Adam asked Addy.

"Martin! You do know your children are here? say hello." 

"What? Oh hello bambinos!" Martin appeared from behind the piles of boxes.

"No top tonight?" Jonny asked.

"He's boiling." Jackie stated dryly with a roll of her eyes.

"I'm boiling!" Martin exclaimed, clearly not hearing his wife.

" And Jims using our loo because...?"

" Oh his is broken."

"Broken" Jonny repeated

"He broke it. No, there!" Jackie cried.

"He broke his own toilet, how did he do that?" Adam wondered.

"How do I know, anyway, he asked if he could use ours, what could i say?"

"No?"

"Fuck off?"
